Chapter 1558
One day, just as Vicky was about to leave work, Aurora called and invited her to dinner.
The two of them often had dinner together, so Vicky did not think much of it and headed to the designated
restaurant.
The restaurant was the hottest upscale Western restaurant in Stoneford City, and it was always fully booked,
requiring reservations several days in advance to secure a spot. Vicky had been there a few times before, and the
food was indeed excellent. Nonetheless, getting a reservation was quite the feat.
As she entered the restaurant, Aurora, sitting by the window, waved at her. "Vicky, over here!"
Vicky walked over and noticed that a young, handsome man was seated with Aurora. He looked somewhat familiar,

"Aurora, who is this?" Vicky began.
"Gilbert Dyer, my senior back in acting school." Aurora introduced them. "Gilbert, this is my good friend, Vicky."
As Gilbert's eyes landed on Vicky, they brightened for a moment. He then stood up and extended his hand with a
smile. "You are even more beautiful than in the photos, Ms. Shaw."
After politely shaking Gilbert's hand, Vicky asked curiously," Mister Dyer, have we met before?"
Gilbert explained with a smile, "Aurora often posts our group photos on her social media. Half the people at our
agency recognize you."
"True, true," Aurora chimed in. "They keep asking me about the beautiful girl in the photos and even want your
phone number." She winked at Vicky. "My manager even approached me privately, asking if you're interested in
becoming a celebrity."
Vicky was indeed stunning. Coupled with her great personality, single men would seek her contact information
every time Aurora posted photos of them together.
Of course, Aurora never mentioned any of this to Vicky as she could tell that Vicky had no interest in dating at the
moment. On top of that, Harvey was subtly pursuing Vicky.
However, four years had passed, and Vicky had not shown any intention of starting anew.
Tyler's absence could have been accepted, but since he was back, Aurora did not know if he would pester Vicky
again. Adding Avery's scheming nature into the equation, Aurora feared for what could be on the horizon.
She could not help but feel that a change was needed.
As the saying goes, the quickest way to forget an old relationship would be to start a new one.

Vicky had not been able to let go of her past completely in these four years, so perhaps she needed a new romantic
interest to shift her focus.
With these thoughts in mind, Aurora carefully chose her senior, Gilbert, among those who were interested in Vicky.
Suddenly, Vicky spoke, "Mister Dyer, were you...the recently acclaimed rising star?"
Vicky recalled all of a sudden that Gilbert was the most famous actor of the year, and his face was all over the
streets.
Aurora nodded. "Yeah. He's sort of my senior in acting school."
Vicky glanced around and asked, "Is it okay for him to come out here and dine with us? Won't the paparazzi come
after him?"
"It's fine," Aurora replied nonchalantly. "Gilbert focuses on his work, not his popularity, so he has never been
involved in a single scandal before. He is thirty this year and doesn't even have a girlfriend. All his fans are worried
about his happiness." She chuckled and added, "His fans even tried messaging the actresses who worked with him
before, asking if they're interested in dating him."
