Chapter 546 Somewhat Pretentious Anton laughed. "Oh, con, that was ages ago. Why bring it up now? Hayden will be laughing about it! Hayden, don't mind her. Just enjoy your meal." Hayden offered a small smile. "I know, Mr. White. Maybe you should think about cutting back on the drinking. You're not getting any younger; it's important to look after your health." Irene shot Anton a disapproving look. "Did you hear that?" Anton chuckled nervously and quickly shifted the conversation.
As Violeta helped herself to sfood, she asked, "Dad, what was the nof that supposed entrepreneur from abroad?" Anton responded, "That guy? Letsee ... His nis Harvey Webb. He's all about appearances, a smooth talker. Ordinary people would easily fall for his act. Overseas, without any connections, it's nearly impossible to dig up his background." That was precisely why Harvey returned to the country-to deceive people.
After all, when people heard that he was a prominent businessman coming back from abroad, they were unlikely to doubt his true identity. Without the right connections to probe further, the truth would remain hidden. Violeta noted the ncarefully.
Suddenly, Anton turned to Violeta with a serious expression. "Vio, be careful. Men like Harvey often target women in the entertainment industry. If you know anyone in the business, it's a good idea to warn them. They might fall for his tricks and end up losing money and have their hearts broken!" Violeta nodded. "I'll keep that in mind, Dad. Thanks." Dinner cto an end.
Irene turned on Elaine's news segment, eager to catch up on current events.

In the bedroom, Violeta was on the small terrace, scrolling through her phone when Hayden joined her. He sat down beside her and wrapped his arms around her.
Resting her head on his shoulder, Violeta asked, "How was dinner tonight?" Hayden responded, "It was good." Violeta playfully teased, "My mom is practically pushing for you to be her son-in-law." Hayden leaned back, gently running his fingers through her hair. "And what about you?" Violeta set her phone aside, looked up at him, and pouted.
Hayden laughed, leaning down to kiss her.
Violeta wrapped her arms around his neck. "Tfor a shower." After hearing Anton's story about Harvey, Violeta began to devise a plan.
It was a plan concerning Hattie's future.
Harvey, as described by Anton, was exactly what Violeta had suspected. After returning to the country, Harvey initially tried to impress industry leaders but failed. He then turned his attention to women in the entertainment sector.
It was well-known that entertainers often earned substantial amounts and were typically attractive, making them ideal targets for someone like Harvey. Despite his efforts, Harvey had yet to find a promising opportunity-until now.
Eugene, wearing sunglasses, tapped on Harvey's car window.
Harvey rolled down the window and looked at him with a frosty expression. "What do you want?" Eugene took off his sunglasses, resting his elbow on the window frwith a smile. "Mr. Webb, right? I've been sent to offer you a deal that's all gain and no risk for you." Harvey's expression hardened. As a con artist himself, he was wary. "Heh. I'm not interested in games." Eugene replied, "It may seem like a e
game, but you'll see once I explain the details. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm Eugene, a superagent in the entertainment industry." Harvey's eyes widened.
The entertainment industry was exactly where he wanted to make a mark.

Meanwhile, Zelena, who had joined the cast of The River's Breeze, discovered that Evelina was the second female lead.
In the makeup room, the crew had been busy for hours, preparing the space. Jenny and Skania, the two wania, e assistants, were arranging cushions on chairs and specifying the brand of water to use, all while waiting for Evelina to arrive. Zelena sat nearby, observing them closely.
Her impression was already tainted by the assistants' excessive fuss over Evelina finding her somewhat pretentious given her status. It was Zelena's first encounter with such a high-maintenance actress.
Known for her discerning nature, Zelena kept a professional demeanor at work and refrained from complaining.
