Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet? novel Chapter 75

The surrounding area was suddenly plunged into an uproar.

Everyone was pointing fingers at Natalia, and the look they casted were not as stunning and appreciative as before.

Instead, they were full of contempt and distain!

Natalia’s face was expressionless. The criticism around her did not stir a single surge of emotions in her still deep eyes. As a matter of fact, her eyes remained serene as if nothing had ever happened.

Glancing at Natalia’s indifferent reaction, Jessica sneered secretly.

Just keep pretending!

How long could you keep it like this?

She paused and was ready to say more.

But before she said anything, Shawn's angry voice was heard.

“Enough! Are you here today for the party or for gossips? It's the entrance. Don’t make a scene gathering around here! Get lost!”

Naturally, everyone was not willing to leave, as a show was unfolding.

Someone could not help but said, “Mr. Miller, your fiancée is the victim. As her boyfriend, why don’t you help your fiancée but an outsider?”

Shawn's back stiffened.

The expression on Jessica's face froze.

With silent fear and unwillingness creeping inside her, she turned to glance at Shawn and saw a flash of panic in his eyes.

Shawn took her hand and explained in a low voice, “Jessica, you know I didn't mean that.”

Jessica clenched her fist.

Something was surging in her heart, arousing deep resentment.

However, a smile was on her face, as said softly, “I know you don’t want me to have a bad relationship with my sister. It's all for my own good, I understand.”

Shawn was too afraid to look into her eyes.

He nodded. “It is good that you know.”

Standing at the side, Marie was still not reconcilable.

She added, “Mr. Miller, even if you don’t want to inquiry into what happened five years ago, are you going to turn a blind eye to the fact that Jessica’s roles have been robbed by her again and again?”

Jessica smiled gently.

“Sister, you may not know the importance of this film to me. I've done my homework for a whole month to get the role. I know you want to promote the artiste under you. How about this? Let me have this role, and I will have Shawn arrange a role for her in another film invested by Century Entertainment. How do you think?”

There was uproar at once.

“This Jessica is way too nice! Despite what her sister had done to her, she's still trying to help her get a role!”

“Yes, she was easy to be bullied!”

“Oh, she is too soft in temper. Fortunately, Shawn is here to protect her. Otherwise, God knows how much of a fool the sister’s going to take her for?”

“Exchange a supporting role for a leading role? She lost nothing. It will be embarrassing if she doesn’t agree to it!”

Listening to the whispers, Natalia curled her lips and forced a smile.

She gazed at Jessica with mockery in her eyes.

“Are you done acting?”

Jessica was stunned.

With a forced smile, she said, “What do you mean, sister?”

“Are you tired of being an actress and planning to switch your career to talk show?”

“Natalia! Don't go too far!”

Marie stood out again.

Natalia’s face darkened suddenly. She darted a sharp glance, and said in a cold voice, “What does it matter to you if I go too far or not? Who are you to tell me what to do?”

Marie was shocked by her cold aura and froze for two seconds.

It took her a while to recover, and then her face changed. She couldn't believe she was shocked by her.

She said angrily, “Even if I have no qualifications, I am better than you. Besides, I am Jessica’s best friend. So what if I come forward for Celine’s sake?”

Natalia sneered.

“Crosstalk can't satisfy you? What, do you want to demote yourself to be some internet celebrity?”

The crowd around froze for a moment and was unable to snap out of it.

Jessica glowered.

“What do you mean?”

“Isn’t it true? I always thought you have no conscience and are always scheming, but you have a good taste. I did not expect you to make friends with the like of these people. If you do not want to be an internet celebrity, why do you make friends with such a third-rate internet celebrity?”

Everyone's eyes widened in shock.

Really? A third-rate internet celebrity?

Who?

Marie flashed panic in her eyes.

“Don't talk nonsense! Who is the third-rate internet celebrity?”

“You, of course!”

Sniggering out of mockery, Natalia shook her head, “Look at you two singing in the same tune. Are you setting up a stage to sing a Chinese Opera? It's a pity that a prick-teaser like you cannot even play the part well. You are too eager to pin me down with a label that it backfired”

Marie's face changed.

“What are you talking about? I don't understand a word you are saying!”

Natalia let out a scoff.

“Do you think a change of clothes and painted face can mask a girl dwelling in the outer edges of the D list to a socialite? Your ID is ‘Marie in the Sky’, right? You only get attention by being sweet. Last month, you cheated a netizen for a huge sum of money, which is confiscated now, out of a netizen. Do you really think that no one can recognize you offline?”

By now, everyone had come around with the revelation.

They took a look at the girl called Marie again seriously and felt she looked familiar!

An internet celebrity like her was no different from others. Because they didn't have any real skills, they could only rely on skirting to gain attention.

So, every time they were streaming live, they just put on some strange makeup.

Coupled with additional filter effects, they looked totally different from the way they were in daily life.

What was the saying again? Goddess online and a matron offline!

Although Marie did not hit it big, her ordinary look was comparable to an average joe, putting her in the same class as a matron.

After being alerted, the crowd soon recognized her.

After all, no matter how well she disguised, she could hardly change her face and eyes.

There was almost a gasp of surprise from everyone, especially the young men who were into the Lolita-goddess fantasies online.

“Dear me! She's ‘Marie in the Sky’! Why is she so ugly?”

“My God! I gave her gifts worth tens of thousands dollars! I might as well visit a prostitute if I had known it earlier! At least, the prostitutes are prettier than her!”

“No, I can't trust my aesthetics anymore! Why did I regard her as my goddess? God!”

“You are not alone. If possible, I really want to take back all my gifts!”

“Forget the gifts! I will thank the gods If she just disappear from my sight ASAP!”
