Lucia opened her eyes drowsily, struggled to get up with a headache, and was astonished to find that she had been changed into a set of pajamas, elegant and ethereal.
The man...
"Awake?" The man's voice was so pleasant to hear that it was soul-stirring, but the tone was cold.
Lucia turned her head, her eyes stunned. Even though she had seen handsome men and beautiful women in the entertainment circle in her previous life, she couldn't help but envy God's partiality.
This man... It's just too much to be knocked down. In her previous life, she had a fierce fight with an Arnold and Faye, and ended up losing her life.
But compared to him, Arnold showed off the attributes of a nobody. I want to be with him... It's not bad, but this handsome guy seems to have been seen somewhere.
"Have we met somewhere before?" The moment the words were spoken, Lucia regretted it. There was always a chattering tone in her words.
Then she immediately changed her words, "Yesterday was an accident. We're all adults. Let's just consider it a game and part amicably." Lucia said, pretending not to care.
To be reborn, she had long let go. Now the top priority was to take revenge, to take away everything that belonged to her. Men, love and such were all fleeting.
Steven's face darkened upon hearing this, and he frowned. Was she so casual?
"Game? So you came on your own initiative?
Lucia noticed that the man's voice was a little colder and somewhat confused. "Sir, I was drugged yesterday, I..."
Before she could finish speaking, her gaze casually fell on the medical supplies by the bedside, and she thought of some possibility. It seemed that between her legs... Really, I don't feel anything.
This man hasn't touched her?
"You weren't with me last night..."
Steven looked back coldly, his tone icy. "I have no interest in drunk women."
Lucia was at a loss for words and looked up to the man again. Though he was a bit cold, he was really good in character.
"Thank you." A smile spread across her face and she nodded sincerely, "Could you please tell me your name and contact information? I will surely repay you when I have the chance."
Human society operates through human feelings, and the man in front of me must be no ordinary person. She's just too weak now, at best a stumbling block in Faye's life, not even a rival.
If she had a few more Allies, her chances of winning would have been much greater.
"Steven." The man lowered his eyelids, withdrew his coldness, and took out a business card from his pocket and handed it to Lucia.
The black-gold business card, with intricate and mysterious engravings around it, exuded an air of dominance and dignity, with only the name and personal number on it.
Carefully put it away, if she wants to defeat Faye, beauty and intelligence alone are not enough, she must have her own network, knowing that she used to be tormented by Faye's mindless fans.
Yet Lucia doesn't know how much of an impact this personal business card will have on her future life.
Lucia, dressed in her new outfit, rushed out today for the audition of "The Song of the World", which she was framed and missed in her previous life, only to find out later that it was a two-for-one scheme by Lark and Faye.
It would deprive her of acting opportunities and make her a wedding dress for Faye.
It's just... Faye will never have such a good life in her lifetime.
Just a few steps away, she unexpectedly saw someone she didn't want to see at the corner of the corridor - Jam.
When Jam woke up after being knocked unconscious by a kick, he was filled with resentment and had nowhere to vent it. Seeing Lucia and a man appear at the same time, he was even more furious.
He spent a lot of money on the best medicine, only to find that not only did he get a kick, but he also made a wedding dress for another man.
Lucia, who was supposed not to wake up, suddenly woke up.
He walked over menacingly, pointed at Lucia's nose and began to curse.
"Little bitch, now kneel down and beg me, come back to my room and make me comfortable, and I'll spare you, otherwise you won't have a chance in the entertainment industry."
Jam threatened him viciously, convinced that Lucia would listen to him. The girl was born to be a star. But just because she offended Miss House of Chandler, she's been in the entertainment industry for two years, not even a background.
If she were to step on it again, her dream of becoming an actress would be over.
Lark said she was still a fledgling.
Lucia caught Jam's determination and recalled the disgusting feeling of being humiliated by this scumbag in her previous life. Her gentle mask was torn off in an instant, and her cold gaze was straight into the other person's eyes.
Jam had always regarded her as a pretty face and never cared about it, but the touch of her gaze made him feel a chill down his neck.
Steven also saw Lucia's sharp appearance, which overturned his impression for a moment.
This is not what a meek and submissive woman should look like.
However, soon Lucia put away her sharpness. She would no longer be like a puppet manipulated by scumbags. Since she was reborn, she would do her best and live with grace.
Threat? Still consider her the former Lucia?
She glanced at Steven beside her, her eyes curved, and laughed like a little fox. "Jam, did you go out today without looking in the mirror? Young and pretty girls like me like handsome and fit men, sorry, I don't accept human-animal hybrids."
Saying this, she pretended to be affectionate and took Steven's arm to show off, "Don't think about a toad eating a swan at your level."
Steven didn't reject Lucia's approach at all; instead, he found it enjoyable. He turned his head and a sharp look flashed in his eyes as he looked at Jam.
Jam was so angry that the man and the woman were a perfect match, which made him gnash his teeth in anger, and the dead girl called him a beast.
"Lucia, don't be so wild. If you anger me, you won't get a good outcome."
"Sorry, I didn't mean to give you a nice look either."
A fierce look flashed across Jam's eyes. "Lucia, do you not want your mother's life? Believe it or not, I'll have someone deal with your mother!"
He didn't believe it, carried Lark out, and Lucia didn't give in.
In the previous life, Jam threatened Lark's life, which made Lucia give in many times. But in this life, she would rather Jam killed Lark.
She treated Lark as a mother, but Lark never treated her as a child. Deal with it? Without Jam, she would take the initiative to deal with Lark.
"Lucia, you should know that you've offended Miss Faye. If you offend me again, you'll have no hope at all for the rest of your life. Good boy, come here. As long as you leave the man around you and come back to my room, I promise you'll rise to the top in the entertainment industry.
Or I'll sell you and your daughter to nightclubs."
Jam had a hunch that Steven was not to be trifled with, and that he didn't need to cause trouble for a minor actor, so it would be best to get Lucia to leave on his own initiative. When he got to his room, it wasn't up to him to decide how to torture the woman.
Any sensible woman knows that if she annoys him, the rest of her life will be ruined. Obedience, though worse than death, is the only way to survive.
Lucia, of course, knew Jam's tricks. She had heard that he had taken a fancy to a young model, a girl who was self-disciplined and naturally did not want to do any despicable deeds, so she chose to leave the modeling circle.
Little did they know that Jam, who was dark and despicable, had targeted the young model's entire family. The young model had to compromise for the sake of her family, and later it was said that she had contracted a lot of illness and committed suicide.
Having been eyed by such a powerful scumbag, her situation was truly worrying. She was afraid that once she left the hotel, her life would never be peaceful.
Rather than that, it would be...
