Chapter 1638 Tipsy
Julian raised his glass and tapped it against Jessie’s. As soon as she finished the glass, Maggie came over to get her.
She wanted to introduce Jessie to the guests. Queenie and Nigel went over to the restaurant, and a few more
young women quickly crowded around Julian. Even a few older ladies came over to ask if he was married. They
were keen to introduce their daughters to him!
He was somewhat exasperated, but he remained pleasant and amiable the whole time.
At the restaurant, Nigel and Queenie sat down at a table after filling their plates. As they took in the view of the
night sky, Queenie exhaled in joy. “We’ve finally reunited.”
“That means we have time to consider our future now.” Nigel stared at her with his dark, affectionate eyes.
She looked back at him a little guiltily. Amid all the commotion of finding her sister, she ended up neglecting him a
fair bit. She nodded and agreed, “Yeah! I’ll bring it up with my parents.”

his plan.
Queenie’s cheeks grew a little warm as she nodded shyly. “Okay.”
Meanwhile, back at the grand hall, Jessie followed her parents around as they introduced her to everyone. The
guests were very warm and welcoming, and she ended up drinking a lot each time they toasted her, leaving her
feeling rather tipsy.
At last, while her parents were caught up in conversation with a few other guests, she made her escape. She
wanted to look for Queenie but couldn’t find her anywhere. Jessie felt a little light-headed and decided to take a
seat. One of the young men, who wanted to approach her, immediately seized this chance to come over.
“Are you alright, Miss Silverstein? Allow me to take you to the lounge to rest.”
“It’s alright. I’m fine, thank you,” she declined politely.
“But, you seem drunk to me. Are you sure you’re alright?” The young man didn’t want to miss this opportunity.
Since she was drunk, it was the perfect time for him to make a good impression!
Jessie wanted to walk away, but as soon as she tried to take a step, her head became woozy, and she fell back
down onto the chair. The man reached out to hold her steady.
At the same time, a man’s voice rang out. “I’ll take care of Miss Silverstein.”
The man turned around to see who was trying to steal this opportunity from him, but the moment he saw who it
was, he deflated at once. Julian was not only an award-winning actor, but he was someone with a mysterious family
background. Most people dared not offend him.
In the end, that young man left sheepishly. Jessie raised her head to look at Julian. Her face seemed to glow under
the light. It made her look even more beautiful than before.
“Why did you drink so much? No one’s forcing you.” He sat down beside her and poured her a cup of tea.
She took the cup and smiled. “I’m happy today. It’s fine if I drink a bit more than usual. I don’t have a very good
tolerance for alcohol, though.”
Her tipsiness seemed to embolden her as she asked, “Can I really play the part of your female lead? Will the
producers and the director approve of me? Won’t I end up ruining your show?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“It’ll be fine. I believe you’ll do a good job,” Julian assured her.
“But I don’t have any real experience when it comes to acting, apart from being a stunt double for several years.
Although I do enjoy acting, I never learned it properly and I don’t have experience. I’m afraid I’ll ruin your show.”
The alcohol gave Jessie the courage to share her innermost thoughts with Julian.
She genuinely liked him and admired him. Thus, she didn’t want to trouble him. She wanted to help him stay as
perfect as he was.
Julian had seen a lot of actresses who were willing to go to extreme lengths just to get the parts they wanted. It was
his first time meeting someone like Jessie, who showed consideration for someone else instead. It was a rare quality
in the entertainment industry. She was truly a kind-hearted soul.
“Don’t worry about all that, Jessie. Just follow my lead. I will teach you anything you need to know about acting,” he
promised sincerely as he tried to reassure her.
Jessie stared at him with hazy eyes before nodding and agreeing obediently, “Okay. I will do my best to learn acting
from you.”
