CHAPTER 397: CHAPTER 397: THE KISS OF RED LIPS

His last sentence made Aria Rhodes look up at him in surprise, along with the girls behind her.

The beloved person.

Jace Kingsley’s words were clear: that’s the person he loves. If they dare to bully her, he certainly won’t let them off.

At this moment, no one dared to speak.

Even Aria Rhodes.

However, a strange voice came from behind, "Mr. Kingsley, Mr. Rong and the others have all been sent off."

The assistant spoke, stopping behind Jace Kingsley.

Jace Kingsley responded with a sigh, his gaze sweeping over the faces of the girls, and finally landing on Aria Rhodes.

Aria Rhodes met Jace Kingsley’s gaze and instantly reacted, immediately taking the business card with both hands and saying with a smile, "Misunderstanding, it’s all a misunderstanding."

Jace Kingsley didn’t say anything further and left directly.

The assistant followed him into the elevator.

Soon, the elevator doors closed.

Only then did the girls react.

They looked at the closed elevator doors, jealousy in their eyes: "That man is so handsome, that woman really hit the jackpot."

"I also think this man is very different, completely different from those rich kids, very charming."

"I think his temper is probably the gentle type, a warm man, but unexpectedly he’s indifferent, making people captivated."

"I’m deeply jealous of that woman just now!"

"..."

They chatted briefly, completely forgetting about Aria Rhodes, as well as the previous unpleasantness.

Meanwhile, Aria Rhodes stood there holding the business card, looking at the black and gold lettering on it.

Jace Kingsley, CEO and President of Omnisphere Group.

Aria Rhodes’ eyes widened, Omnisphere Group, that leading company of Miraport, Omnisphere Group?

At this moment, she was shocked.

...

Ava Sterling left the restaurant and hailed a taxi directly back to the company.

However, the moment she got into the car, her heart began to feel uncomfortable.

Jace Kingsley didn’t chase after her, didn’t talk to her because her attitude was already very clear; even if he chased after her, she wouldn’t pay him any attention.

So, he wanted to approach, but didn’t dare.

Afraid she would be annoyed with him.

At that moment, she clearly felt his emotions.

He was hurting, his heart was aching.

Ava Sterling was not heartless. She has feelings, and because of this, she clearly felt Jace Kingsley’s emotions.

Being sincere, she understands well.

But ironically, she couldn’t give Jace Kingsley what he wanted.

Since that’s the case, don’t be softhearted, don’t get close, stay far away.

Ava Sterling watched the scenery swiftly pass by outside the window, praying in her heart that Jace Kingsley could meet a wonderful girl, and then that girl would be with Jace Kingsley, happy until old age.

This was her kind wish for him.

Smiling, Ava Sterling let go of her thoughts, no longer thinking about it.

This matter ends here.

She straightened herself, starting to recall the knowledge her teacher spoke to her during lunch at the restaurant today.

She reviewed, carefully pondering, focusing all her energy on acting.

Even though she hadn’t acted before, she had watched TV for many years, and understood one thing very clearly: for an actor, good acting skills are the most important.

No matter whether you have talent, or whether you’re professionally trained, it’s clear to the audience whether your performance is good or bad at a glance.

Of course, whether an actor can become popular is not just about acting skills.

Directors, production teams, supporting actors, all the staff’s efforts, it’s all together.

She agreed to act in the drama by Silas Donovan. She hadn’t thought of becoming famous from this drama; she just wanted to perform well so that the audience would be satisfied watching it.

And she had no acting experience before; she only had a few months to learn, so she was actually quite uncertain in her heart.

Really afraid of performing badly.

So now, she must devote her utmost effort to learning and doing this thing.

Cannot perform badly.

She does not allow herself to perform badly.

The car quickly stopped at the company, Ava Sterling got out of the car and went directly into the company, heading straight to the training room to start class.

She must work hard, work hard, and work harder!

At this time, in Melbourne.

Airport.

VIP lounge, Poe Vaughn and Quentin Quinn walked out.

Poe Vaughn, holding his phone, powered it on.

As the phone powered on, the screen lit up, returning to the home page, messages and emails poured in, clearly displaying one by one on the screen.

He looked at these messages and emails, especially one from Ava Sterling.

He swiped his finger across and opened it.

Ava Sterling: [Hubby, I received the new phone, I really like it,

The message Ava Sterling sent clearly fell into his eyesight in the chat box.

Looking at these words, the emojis afterward, and especially the animated graphic Ava Sterling sent him with red lips continuously sending kisses accompanied by red hearts popping up, as if each kiss was coming to him constantly.

Poe Vaughn looked at those red lips for a long time, then raised his eyes, put away the phone, and walked steadily out of the airport.

Ava Sterling’s afternoon class ended quickly, right after class she left the company and returned to Kestrel Apartments.

By this time, Old Zhang had been waiting outside the company door for a while, and as soon as he saw her coming out, he promptly opened the car door for her.

Ava Sterling got into the car, Old Zhang started the car, quickly driving away from the company.

Today Ava Sterling picked up the book before leaving.

The complete story written by Silas Donovan.

She took advantage of her time going back to read the story, taking the time to understand the characters and plots inside.

Then, she could have a clearer picture of how to perform.

The company wasn’t far from the apartment, and just as Ava Sterling was getting absorbed in the book, the car stopped.

Old Zhang said, "Madam, we’re here."

Ava Sterling frowned, was it so fast?

She looked out the window, and sure enough, it was the gate of Kestrel Apartments. Ava Sterling said, "Alright, I’ll go in first, call me if there’s anything."

"Okay, Madam."

Ava Sterling snapped the book shut, took her bag, got out of the car, and quickly went into the apartment.

Old Zhang waited until Ava Sterling was inside before leaving.

At home, Sister Wei had already prepared the meal and was tidying up in the kitchen.

Ding-dong, the doorbell rang and the door opened.

Sister Wei heard the sound and came out immediately.

Seeing Ava Sterling changing shoes at the entrance, she smiled and said, "Madam’s back?"

"Yes."

Ava Sterling placed her bag on the cabinet at the entrance and came inside directly. Sister Wei said, "Dinner is ready, it’s in the kitchen. Madam should wash her hands, I’ll bring it out right away."

"Alright."

Ava Sterling had been holding her book, reading it when she entered the community and in the elevator, seriously studying.

Now, hearing Sister Wei’s words, she put the book on the table and went to the bathroom to wash her hands.

Soon enough, Sister Wei brought the delicious dishes to the table.

"Madam, please eat first."

Sister Wei placed a bowl of medicinal soup in front of Ava Sterling, pointedly mentioning.

Ava Sterling said nothing, sat down and started drinking the soup, saying as she drank, "Sister Wei, why don’t you eat with me."

"No worries, I’m in no hurry, Madam, you eat first."

"Alright."

Ava Sterling didn’t say more, she drank the soup while reading the book, for the first time Sister Wei saw Ava Sterling reading a book while eating, she was slightly surprised: "Is this book really good?"

Sister Wei couldn’t resist asking out of curiosity.

Ava Sterling said, "It’s for the television show I’m going to film, reading the book ahead of time."

"Time is tight, can’t help it."

Ava Sterling explained, and Sister Wei understood, saying, "Alright, any orders Madam has, please tell me."

Ava Sterling said, "Make me some flower tea, you should know where the flower tea is."

"Yes, Madam."

Sister Wei quickly made flower tea for Ava Sterling. Ava Sterling took a sip, and then continued to eat and read the book, not affected at all.

Time passed quickly, Ava Sterling finished her dinner and continued to sit on the sofa reading her book.

The teacher would come over in the evening. She had already instructed Lauren Howell to arrange someone to pick up and drop off the teacher every day, without neglect.

However, she did not entrust Old Zhang with this task, after all, Old Zhang belongs to Poe Vaughn, she couldn’t use him casually unless Poe Vaughn offered himself, otherwise she would not ask.

The sky gradually darkened, at six fifty, the teacher arrived.

Ava Sterling immediately closed the book. Sister Wei served the brewed tea to the teacher and then went back to cleaning.

Ava Sterling and the teacher had a lesson in the study room.

So quickly night fell deeply, nine o’clock.

The evening class ended, the teacher left.

Ava Sterling personally accompanied the teacher to the elevator, and not until the elevator doors closed did Ava Sterling return.

She was becoming increasingly focused and serious, constantly thinking about how to act, the knowledge the teacher talked about.

You could say she was obsessed.

And now, in the guest room, Sister Wei, holding a mobile phone, quietly looked outside, then spoke to the person on the phone.
