CHAPTER 252: CHAPTER 253: JEALOUSY (PART 1)

Speaking of Irene Spencer, she’s no ordinary character—an academic overachiever who studied abroad, originally not even majoring in acting.

She entered the entertainment industry two years ago, playing a supporting role in a film by ImpVision. With her exceptional acting skills and outstanding features, she quickly became famous all over Asia, and now she’s an established first-tier star.

That name, Vera Wave is certainly not unfamiliar with.

One is a promising youth, the other a popular idol—handsome and beautiful, standing together, they look like a perfect match.

Calling Vera Wave didn’t get a response, so Ruben Campbell raised his voice.

"Vera?"

"Huh?" It was only then Vera snapped back to reality, "What’s up, Brother Ruben?"

"I asked where you live?"

"Oh... I..." Vera glanced at the road outside the car window, "Just stop at the alley entrance up ahead, the road inside is narrow, the car can’t get in."

Ruben Campbell pulled over, "Let me walk you there, it’s late, might not be safe."

Vera waved at them, "It’s okay, just a few steps away."

Ruben finally drove off with the others, as Vera turned to walk into the alley, thinking of the video she just watched, a cloud of worry covered her small face.

In her mind, two little figures had already started arguing.

Don’t overthink it, those rumors in the entertainment industry, you believe them, they’re just the journalists’ fabrications.

Where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Otherwise, why would he choose her as the spokesperson, and not someone else?

Look at Irene Spencer, she’s got the body, she’s got the charisma, if I were a man, I’d like her too.

I’m not bad either...

Thinking of this, Vera lowered her head to look at her chest, intentionally puffed it up, then thinking of Irene Spencer in the video, felt her waist soften again.

In terms of physique, how could she compare to her?

He’s been gone so long, not a single call, he’s surely lost in joy spending time with a big beauty.

Unconsciously, she had already reached the door of the old house, weakly knocking on the door, Mrs. Feng came over to open it, and hurriedly opened the door when she saw her.

"Miss, you’re finally back. Mr. called several times looking for you, you better return his call!"

"Kris?" Vera instantly brightened up like a thirsty flower getting watered, "He called for me?"

"Yes, about seven or eight times, said your phone was unreachable."

Unreachable?

Vera dug out her phone from her bag, pressed it, and indeed saw over twenty missed calls displayed.

To avoid affecting the shoot in the afternoon, she had put her phone on silent, later got busy and forgot all about it, turns out she had wronged him.

Feeling a flash of joy, she hurried to call him back with her phone.

"Hello." The call was made, and after a while, it connected, Kris Cooper’s voice came through with a noisy background, "Wait for me a moment."

A moment later, it was quiet on his end, and he spoke with slight anger.

"Why didn’t you pick up the phone?"

"I had it on silent, didn’t hear it."

"Idiot!" Kris Cooper immediately scolded in anger, "You might as well throw your phone away."

He’d called her more than thirty times, no phone answer, no sign of her at the landline, he was nearly frantic.

"How would I know if it’s convenient for you or not, what if you’re on a date with some superstar, calling would just ruin the mood!"

"What nonsense. Where are you now?"

"Just got home."

"Good, eat something and have a good sleep, don’t put your phone on silent tomorrow, understand?"

"Okay."
