Love me or leave me (Rebecca and Theodore)

Chapter 242

Just a moment ago, everyone was smiling and talking happily, but upon hearing J's words, everyone fell silent. No one spoke, and the smiles on their faces disappeared. Stacey looked at J and was surprised. She thought she had already broken ties with her long ago and didn't expect J to come to her. Looking at the famous directors who were talking to them just now, she immediately understood J's ulterior motive.

"It's getting late and you must be hungry. How about we go get dinner together?" Hayden suggested with a smile, noticing that Stacey didn't want to talk to J.

Hearing Hayden's words, Stacey instantly smiled and agreed, "Yeah, sure."

Charlie was also happy. "I want to have dinner with you guys too!"

Not only them but also Jeremy, Lillian, and Kevin were very happy and looking forward to having dinner. While they were happy, the directors beside them became unhappy. They all gave J a sharp glare. J's face suddenly darkened when she saw this. She was not dumb and naturally knew that she had done something wrong.

She recalled the scene from just now and realized that she misunderstood those directors. They were trying to please Rebecca and Charlie. Because of her presence, Rebecca and Charlie had left immediately, which led to them resenting her. J immediately panicked. She hurriedly ran over, grabbed hold of Stacey, and asked, "Stacey, where are you having dinner? Why don't we all go together? I know a specialty restaurant nearby, and the food is really good."

As J spoke, she hurriedly turned to look at a group of famous directors behind her and asked them, "Isn't that right?"

The directors, who had felt discouraged moments ago, immediately perked up when they realized that there was still hope. They hurried over and said with bright smiles, "Yeah, Becky, Charlie, Mr. Hoggard, let's go together. It's on me today. I know a fantastic restaurant in Jacaster. It would be a shame not to go there."

Stacey was unhappy when she heard this, but they had no grudge against these directors. Especially since the L&K Group would develop in the entertainment industry in the future, Charlie also needed the connections. They couldn't offend these famous directors at will.

"Then let's all have dinner together," Hayden agreed directly.

Both Stacey and Charlie were unhappy about it, but there was no other option. They could only have dinner together. "Let's go." In just a second, Charlie adjusted his expression and smiled. Those who were familiar with him knew that his smile was fake, which showed that he was in a bad mood.

Jeremy was not happy either, but he remained silent. Lillian and Kevin were too young to understand what had happened. They just had dinner in mind, so they were very happy.

Stacey held back her temper and finished the dinner with the directors. It was not until Lillian and Kevin were sleepy and made a fuss that she had an excuse to leave. Hayden then carried Jeremy on his back. Although Jeremy was already three, he was still a child, and it was late. It was natural for him to get sleepy.

After returning to the hotel from the restaurant, Stacey asked Gwen and Marie to take a bath for Lillian and Kevin. Then she took a bath herself and went to bed. This was the first time Lillian and Kevin fell asleep without listening to Stacey's bedtime story because they were too sleepy.

Stacey was also tired, but she

couldn't sleep It had been a long time since she met J. Stacey felt J seemed to have changed, but maybe it was because she couldn't quite articulate her feelings toward her. In the past, Stacey toferated J as much as she could because she was the daughter of her adoptive parents. She did it out of respect for them raising her. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

However, now, everything had changed. Her identity had changed, and so did J's. J wasn't the biological daughter of her adoptive parents. This was something Stacey had never imagined of. However, after thinking about it carefully it made sense. At that time, her adoptive parents adopted her because they were infertile. If the tests they had done before she was adopted were true, it meant they really couldn't have children. It would be abnormal for them to give birth to J later. Stacey fell asleep after contemplating for a while.

On the other end, J was still awake and very anxious in the hotel. She tried her best to approach these famous directors and thought that they would be happy after she

noticed that after Rebecca and Charlie left, the directors left one after another. No one paid attention

to her. "Ben!" J was anxious and hurriedly caught up with them to stop one of the directors. Content

Ben paused and then looked back at J. After all, it was because of J that they had the meal arrangement. Ben looked back at J with a less impatient expression.

J was nervous, but she knew this opportunity was rare. She hurriedly said, "Ben, I heard that you are planning a drama recently and are looking for a female lead."

"Ms. Mitchell, if I were you, I wouldn't waste time on meaningless things," Ben advised, looking at J.

J was stunned and looked at Ben in confusion. The other directors who hadn't gone far also looked back, but they only took a glance before leaving.

Ben looked at J and advised her, "Ms. Mitchell, you know the current policy prohibits disgraced artists from appearing on screen. Even if we want to hire you, we couldn't." As he spoke, he gazed toward J with pity in his eyes. "You'd better try something else instead of continuing to act."

"Something else?" J was confused. Ben looked deeply at J, then turned around and left. J was anxious to catch up with him, but she stopped, not knowing what to say. Until Ben walked away, J stood in place and was still thinking about what Ben had just said. She pondered, 'Try something else? What else could I possibly do?'

J smiled bitterly. She had signed a five-year contract with her company. So, she could only stay in the entertainment industry until the contract ended. Moreover, she wanted to marry Joe and be his legitimate wife, so she naturally couldn't leave the entertainment industry. It was said that Joe only liked women in the entertainment industry.
