The doctor shook his head. “She’s very old and sullering from multiple organ failure. Any form of treatment would only cause her more pain. She’ll pass away in these two days.”
Genevieve could not help but lecl upset upon hearing that
She found a caregiver to take care of the old woman and reminded the caregiver to contact her if anything came up. Then, she took a cab to the resort.
Genevieve took a shower in the hotel room and slept for a short while. When she woke up, night had fallen.
At that moment, Jane texted Genevieve, informing the latter she was at the door.
Genevieve hurriedly went to open the door, spotting Jane carrying a makeup kit. “Aren’t you helping Rachel with her makeup and styling? How come you’re so fast?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAside from Bruce, the company had also invited two other celebrities to participate in Fantasy Film Festival.
One of the celebrities was Rachel Henderson. The styling team the company hired for her had done a terrible job of preening Rachel during her previous red carpet event. Outrageously, the styling company even requested an increase in salary this time.
The styling company suddenly went on a strike that morning after James rejected them. They told James to contact another styling company to take the job.
Even so, Genevieve did not panic. She asked for Jane’s help as the latter was adept at styling
“I reached Baykeep in the afternoon and spent three hours on her styling. I just completed the task.” Jane smiled faintly while entering Genevieve’s room, carrying the makeup kit.
Jane’s mood significantly improved after she began working and interacting with others. She was not coughing as much as before.
Placing the makeup kit on the dressing table, Jane asked Genevieve, “Genevieve, I heard Mr. Dixon said you’ll be starring in the opening performance of the film festival tonight. Which gown are you wearing?”
Genevieve took out a set of suits from her luggage. “This.”
Seeing that, Jane was amused. “All the female celebrities are fighting to be the highlight of the event. They wanted so badly for the camera to focus only on them. Even Rachel’s gown is a customized design by MM, scheduled to be launched during next year’s spring or summer. You’re only going to wear this set of suits?”
Genevieve shrugged and said carefreely. “They are all celebrities. I’m not. I didn’t want to bring a gown mainly because it’s very licavy.”
“Why don’t-”
Jane knew Rachel brought extra gowns to standby. She was about to suggest borrowing one of the gowns from Rachel when the doorbell rang.
Opening the door, Genevieve saw Cooper standing outside, holding a transparent clothes cover in his right hand. Inside the cover was in pale green evening gown.
“Coop, how did you know I’m lacking an evening gown?” Genevieve received the outfit from him.
“We lived together for over ten years. If I couldn’ı ligure that much about you, those times we staved together would be in vain,” Cooper uicred with a wcak smile. “Then, he shifted his kaze into the room.
Spotting Jane, le reckoned she was there to prcen Genevieve for the event.
“I’ll be going to the restaurant first. You can come over after you’re done styling.” With that, he left.
Worried the makeup would be ruined if she wore the gown afterward, Genevieve changed into the evening gown first. When she turned around, Genevieve noticed Janc had her head lowered as she repeatedly fiddled with the things inside her makeup kit.
Genevieve could not help but ask, “Jane, are you all right?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Huh? I’m fine.” Jane regained her senses and saw Genevieve had done changing into the evening gown. She told Genevieve to sit before the vanity and began to doll the latter up.
The clock had already struck six o’clock when Genevieve was done with her makeup. She then went to the restaurant with Jane.
Noticing the foods served on the table were only salads, cherry tomatoes, and iced coffee, Genevieve turned to Cooper speechlessly. “I’m not a celebrity. Can’t I have some meat?”
“You’re performing onstage later. Your stomach will bloat if you eat too much.” Cooper placed a plate of cherry tomatoes in front of her.
Genevieve did not want to be embarrassed in that manner in front of so many people, so she had no choice but to cat the cherry tomatoes reluctantly.
Cooper hastily mixed a bowl of salad and put the bowl next to Genevieve’s hand. “You asked me whether I wanted to invest in a movie the other day. Why didn’t you mention to me the male lead is Bruce?”
“What’s the matter?* Genevieve asked.
Leaning against the back of his chair, Cooper took a sip of luis coffee. “I’ve had people investigate this matter. That movie’s primary investor works closely with Coco’s boss. The investor suddenly withdrew the fund because of Coco’s boss’ instruction. Coco’s boss even met with the investors found by the producer.”
