Chapter 1645 Lina’s Gambit
Jessie cto the restroom. There was barely anyone in the cubicles, so she picked the innermost one. Not long after she went
inside, a few ladies cin as they chatted along. The biggest news of the day was Julian’s scandal with a no-nstuntwoman.
They hadn't received any orders to keep the news down, so they thought Julian must be letting the news make the rounds.
“Who is that stuntwoman? Why does Master Julian care about her so much? She even gets everything an A-lister gets.”
“Are you sure about that?”
“Yeah. | printed the contract myself and even took a look at it. She's getting an A-lister’s resources, alright.”

“] wonder how he managed to convince President Gilmore to sign this. We would never have signed on someone with no acting
chops otherwise.”
“Yeah. Master Julian must have faced a lot of pressure for this.”
“Of course. President Gilmore is someone who doesn’t care about anyone. The company’s profit comes first.”
Jessie hid in the cubicle, and her face turned red as she listened to their conversation. She had conflicting emotions about it.
So, he had to endure so much just to signon. She emerged from the restroom and looked at Julian, who was sitting before the
French window. She swore to herself she would keep going on, no matter how hard the path would be, just for him.
The sun shone on him, and it added scharms to his exquisite features, but for sreason, Jessie had sensed an air of
solitude about him. She felt a twinge in her heart as she looked at him. She then walked over and sat beside him. “Thanks for
signingon. | won't let you down.”
“Don’t feel pressured. Just do your best.” There was confidence in his eyes. He believed she would do well.
Jessie loved acting. Since becoming a stuntwoman, being an actress had been her dream. She wanted to play different roles and
challenge herself. It was the reason she worked so hard, and now she would work even harder. She would never let Julian down.
“Let's go. I'll take you home.”
“There's no need for that. | can just get a ride.”
“No. The scandal is making the rounds fast. Sof the more raving fans might hurt you. | need to make sure you get hsafe
and sound,” he said seriously.

Meanwhile, Lina heard the news of Nigel's engagement that morning, and it shocked her. If Nigel were to be engaged, she would
have no chance to get close to him. She still had the photos Bonnie sent her last time. It wasn’t the first tshe observed them,
but no matter how many times she looked at them, she still thought the woman in the photos looked like Queenie. She really
wanted to make these photos public, but she had lost contact with Bonnie for days.
Deleting the photos would be a waste, though. She wanted to use them somehow, as this was her only chance to win Nigel over. If
these photos managed to ruin Nigel's engagement, she would have had a chance to get close to Nigel.
However, Lina wasn’t going to expose herself as the mastermind. The Mansons were too powerful. If they realized this was all her
doing, they would cafter her family. She wasn’t so stupid as to put her family and her life on the line. All she wanted was to
sabotage Queenie and obstruct her engagement.
First things first, she had to get her hands on Penelope's number and send her these photos. Rumors said Penelope was a powerful
woman who was a part of the Manson Family. Nobody would ever dare to cross her.
