Holding a small plate, Serina Norris was eating the dessert in it.
“Serina, here are some people who work in media companies and may post you on the Internet. Can you act like a lady when eating?” Ernest Brisco said with a look of disgust.
“I’m starving to death. Do you know why? Look at my dress! It is so tight. Others can notice the fat on my belly easily. I couldn’t go anywhere in the past few days. All I have done is stay at home, which is easy for me to add unwanted pounds. To prevent me from adding much fat, I didn’t eat, okay?”
She would surely starve to death if she still could not eat anything!
“Serina, I can understand what you say. But it still would be better if you control yourself. Think about that. All your photos post tomorrow are your eating. The media will talk impudent about you.”
Jessica Miller also agreed with Ernest Brisco.
“I am not a star like you. I don’t care. Let them say what they want to say!” Serina Norris said, devouring her dessert.
“Sammy, take a break here. I just saw an actor in my crew. I’d like to say hello to him.”
“Okay, do what you got to do. I also saw some friends. I’m just going to say hi, too.”
Sammy Nathan was the president of the Nathan Group, which enabled him to have a wide range of contacts. He met some acquaintances at this celebration party.
They separated.
Clara Norris walked straight towards Serina Norris.
“You guys enjoy a good time, don’t you? ” Clara Norris pursed her lips, smiling in an arrogant attitude as she always did.
Her annoying voice always made Serina Norris uncomfortable.
Clara Norris took a glass of wine from the table and said, “Sister, sincerely, I should have thanked you for writing the novel. Without it, I wouldn’t be so popular now. A toast to you.”
“No need to thank me. You gain that on your own.” smiled Serina Norris.
“You think so?”
Clara Norris chuckled, covering her mouth with a hand.
The two sisters had been in a heated argument before, while Serina Norris’s novel achieved Clara Norris’s popularity. How ironic this was!
Clara Norris believed that Serina Norris could bear resentment. Serina Norris was the author of the novel and even the guest writer in her crew.
“Sister, I know your feelings. It was you who made me famous. I shall give a very special thanks to you.”
“Cheers.” Clara Norris raised her glass.
Serina Norris picked up the glass. She softly lifted her glass to her sister’s and drank up without pause.
Clara Norris smiled faintly and took a sip of the wine.
There were not many media correspondents in the venue. At that time, all of them ran towards them.
“Clara, can we take a photo?”
“Clara, can we have a short interview?”
“Clara, can you give me an autograph first?”
All the media correspondents were focusing on Clara Norris.
“Sure.” Clara Norris darted a look at Serina Norris triumphantly and left with the correspondents.
All the newsmen ignored Serina Norris, Jessica Miller, and Ernest Brisco.
It was understandable to ignore Serina Norris and Ernest Brisco. But it was unbelievable that they even showed no interest in Jessica Miller.
What a toast Clara Norris is!
Ernest Brisco sighed, “Clara Norris made a nice twist. She has been on the trend of Twitter for more than ten days. Moreover, the headlines these days are all about her.”
Serina Norris glanced at Ernest Brisco, “You get all the credit, don’t you? You assisted her to hype up! Ernie, when did you start to like to hype up? You let others believe you two are in a good relationship?”
“It was because…”
Ernest Brisco did not finish what she was going to say, “Serina, you only talked about my credit. But my credit cannot be greater than yours, right? The novel is yours!”
Serina Norris was frozen and couldn’t speak.
That’s right. Did anyone ask her to write this novel?
“Fine. I deserve it!” Serina Norris glared at Ernest Brisco and continued to eat her desserts.
After a while, a commotion suddenly occurred in the venue.
Clara Norris, who was talking in a jovial mood with several media workers, also noticed the riot. Next second, those media that had surrounded her just now left her alone!
This made Clara Norris a little embarrassed.
All eyes were focused on the gate.
Everyone thought that all the guests had paraded along the red carpet. They did not expect that there would be such a big gun!
Derek Maynard!
The media reporters grabbed their cameras and started filming again. Unexpectedly, Derek Maynard, who rarely allowed the media to take photos, did not refuse this time.
He was dressed in a crisp black suit radiating a royal demeanor which drew all attention at the scene.
Everyone was very surprised. Although the play had been a heated topic these days and the celebratory banquet was much-anticipated.
However, a celebrity like Derek Maynard only attended private banquets or business banquets held by big shots.
No matter how popular President Is an Evil was, it didn’t deserve his attendance!
“Mr. Derek!” Lawis stepped forward.
He shook hands with Derek Maynard. The latter just nodded.
All of the media were still confused about what made Derek Maynard come here?
“Mr. Derek, are you a fan of this drama? What brings you here today?”
They said the unripe calf was not afraid of a tiger. The green hands of the reporter mustered up their courage to step forward for an interview.
The bodyguards behind Derek Maynard were about to expel the reporters when Derek Maynard raised his hand to stop them.
Lawis immediately said, “Welcome, Derek Maynard, the investor of the drama President Is an Evil!”
The investor!
The audience was shocked!
Derek Maynard was the investor of this love drama?
The Saint Group would invest in such a love drama? Didn’t they always invest in those high-quality plays?
Serina Norris was stunned by the news.
Derek Maynard was actually the investor?
Ernest Brisco looked at Serina Norris and sighed, “You don’t know about that?”
“Of course!” Serina Norris turned her head and asked Ernest Brisco, “Do you know that?”
“I have guessed it.” Ernest Brisco said in a low voice, “I guessed it was also Derek Maynard who bought the copyright of the novel.”
Derek Maynard was being interviewed. Serina Norris looked at him in a state of shock.
It had never occurred to her that it was Derek Maynard who bought the copyright of the novel and invested in filming it. It seems that it was also Derek Maynard who personally chose her to act as the special scriptwriter.
It turned out that he was helping her all the time.
Derek Maynard finished the interview soon. He looked around. Then, he kept his eyes on Serina Norris.
Their eyes met. They actually felt a little uncomfortable.
Serina Norris immediately looked away from him. At this time, the staff invited everyone to go to the auditorium.
Before the celebratory dinner, there was going to be a short event.
Serina Norris took the opportunity to leave this place with Jessica Miller.
Derek Maynard just walked towards her. But Serina Norris had already left.
It turned out that she still couldn’t forgive him.
