Chapter 1673 Taco, Mac and Cheese, Elotes, and Grilled Skewers
She was so used to Julian's gentleness that his sternness made her feel inexplicably aggrieved all of a sudden. In fact, her eyes
began to turn misty. However, she obstinately pursed her lips tight and forced her tears back.
At that, she nodded. “I want to act. I'll definitely get it right.”
“You feel stressed when you act alongside me. Go and do it with your assistant instead,” urged Julian, asking her to leave.
Jessie left right away, as she would really cry out of grievance if she stayed a second longer. It was honestly absolutely grieving to
be told off suddenly when she had been enjoying his gentleness for quite stime.
Lexie happened to be out when she returned to her room, so she headed to the balcony for sfresh air. After taking a few deep
breaths and wiping the tears from the corner of her eyes away, she gave herself a pep talk. You're going to act, Jessie Silverstein,
and you're going to do it right. Do not disappoint him.

It was as though disappointing him was a sin.
Meanwhile, in a different hotel room, Lisa was watching the clock run on the couch while musing, Surely, Julian would have seen
my earring by now. When is he going to call and havego and get it? Right, I'm going to give him another ten minutes. If he still
doesn’t call, I'll go get it myself. I'll tell him it's an expensive piece, and he can't lose it.
While she pondered, she had her makeup artist touch up her makeup.
Just then, a knock cat the door. Her assistant answered it only to find it was a middle-aged woman. “This is the earring Miss
Powers dropped in Young Master Julian's room. I'm here to return it,” the latter said to the assistant, who took it with bafflement.
Lisa heard the middle-aged woman too, and her expression immediately turned ugly. Seeing so, her assistant returned the earring
to her gingerly. “Miss Lisa, Young Master Julian had someone return it.”
“I know! Urgh! As if | needed her to return it! | should've been the one going to him, me!” Lisa fumed before slumping onto the
couch, spent.
Wait, wasn't Silverstein at the door when | left? That b*tch must be in Julian’s room right now, isn’t she?!
Jessie had already gotten social media raving about her when she got cast as a stunt double and stole her role. Not only that, the
Intewas filled with comments about how an A-lister like Lisa was defeated by a mere stunt double, making her fans
disappointed in her.
The publicity Jessie had garnered lately had already made Lisa hate her, and now that she saw Jessie flirting with Julian with her
own eyes, the aversion deepened.
“You think a nobody with no background like you can fight me?! Hmph, you're as good as dead meat!” Lisa snorted disdainfully as
animosity flashed across her eyes.
Accidents that ruin an actor's career would inevitably happen in a crew every now and then...
As expected, back in Jessie's room, Jessie didn’t feel stressed at all when she acted in front of Lexie. What was more, her ability to

gushed about her talent for acting, and it brought sconfidence back to Jessie.
Jessie didn’t go down for dinner that night but had Lexie get sof her favorite takeaways. Of course, these delectable couldn't
be found in a hotel but on the streets.
Tacos, mac and cheese, elotes, and grilled skewers were Jessie and Lexie’s scrumptious dinner for the night. But lo and behold, the
doorbell rang mid-eating.
At that, Lexie checked the peephole while munching on a grilled lamb skewer only to cry out in panic, “Jessie, Jessie, quick, tidy up.
It's Young Master Julian.”
Jessie, too, panicked. Ah, he can’t seeeating these things! With that, she hurriedly packed the food and hid everything in the
cabunder the television before wiping the table clean. Meanwhile, Lexie gobbled down the skewers, chucked the stick into the
trash can aside, and wiped her lips clean before answering the door.
Outside, Julian waited for stbefore someone finally opened the door. However, a whiff of grilled skewers traveled from
Lexie when she answered the door, and it made him scrunch his nose reflexively and glance at her.
