The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 55: Chapter 54: The Banquet

"You can sign your cousin directly into your studio; it's better than signing directly with the company."

After saying this, Norman Bennett patted the little girl's head and continued, "For such small matters, you can

decide on your own."

"Hehe, Norman Bennett, you're really nice." Elliana Lyle thought for a while and decided to ask Joy Lyle if she was

willing first.

So, she quickly sent a message to Joy Lyle and soon received a reply.

Sister: "Of course, we can look out for each other. Oh, | was just about to tell you, I'm going to visit our eldest

sister tomorrow."

Kitty: "Hmm, Sister Phoebe’s house has many cats! I've visited before."

Tflew by, a week later.

That day, after Elliana finished filming, it was already noon.

Thomas Lee called everyone to stop and was unusually cheerful. He announced, "Everyone's worked hard. Our

premiere starts tomorrow, so today we'll wrap up early. I'm treating, and the venue is provided by Mr. Shen, on

the second floor of Vicars Hotel. It's all ours, except for post-production staff who have to work a bit harder.

Everyone who can come, please do!"

The actors and staff present all applauded enthusiastically. Timara Zephyr stood among them, sneakily glancing

at Elliana, her eyes scanning up and down, with a smile that carried an ambiguous meaning.

"Elliana, | remember you're staying at Vicars Hotel. How about givinga ride?" Yates Zander approached her,

speaking half-jokingly.

Elliana did not refuse: "Sure."

To Elliana, Yates was a very nice person—gentle, polite, and gentlemanly. Most importantly, they were both

artists under Norman Bennett's company.

So Elliana didn’t think Yates’s attention towards her was driven by any personal motive.

"Alright, Elliana, wait a moment while | make a call," Yates said.

Elliana nodded slightly: "Sure, no problem, I'll wait."

Since Victor King was also in the car, Yates Zander didn’t chit-chat much with Elliana.

Conversely, Victor King felt a bit strange. She suspiciously stared at Yates in the front seat. Even though he was

in the scompany as Elliana, didn't Yates have his own car and driver? Why insist on catching a ride with

them?

Upon returning to the hotel, Elliana dropped Yates off on the second floor, and they parted ways.

She hurried back to her room and couldn’t even talk much with Lana before quickly calling Luna to check on her

preparations.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

"Hello, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable. Please try again later..."

She called three times, but there was no answer. Elliana sighed, not knowing what Luna was up to, and had no

choice but to start changing into her pre-arranged gown.

Lana: "Madam, do you needto curl your hair a bit? I think slightly wavy hair would look really nice on you."

"Sure." Elliana had never curled her hair before, but hearing Lana suggest it, she wanted to give it a try.

Vicars Hotel, second floor, the hall.

There weren't many people at the moment, with more than an hour until the party started. In a corner, there

were two women in dresses.

"Later, put this in a drink and serve it. Once it's done, you definitely won't be a minor character in my next lead

role film."

"Don’t worry, Sister Yun!"

When the party started, Thomas Lee stood at the top and addressed everyone who had come: "Everyone, we're

very pleased to gather here today. Before the party starts, | want to thank everyone for their hard work on South

Wind Song..."

The director spoke as Elliana kept calling Luna, but still couldn't reach her.

Amid a loud applause, the party officially began.

With Luna not answering the phone, Elliana felt a bit anxious and decided it was best to keep her distance from

Timara Zephyr.

Ever since eavesdropping on Timara Zephyr with the businessman, Elliana had been extremely wary.

No matter what Timara Zephyr offered her today, she would not eat or touch it!

Gradually, investors and reporters approached her, the lead actress, to toast, even though today wasn’t the

premiere. Most reporters had caught wind of the news and cto get acquainted.

Elliana wore an elegant long black dress, with naturally draped, half-concealing wavy long hair. Whether in

appearance or demeanor, she stood out at the party.

This gave the reporters plenty to talk about, with everyone praising her appearance, since the premiere hadn't

aired, and they couldn't comment on her acting.

Elliana smiled awkwardly yet politely, responding to each person, although she drank little each time; she still

ended up drinking quite a bit due to the sheer number of people, leaving her slightly tipsy, with her cheeks

slightly flushed.

Then, other crew members cto toast her, and Elliana, fearing she might do something wrong if she drank

too much, only took a small sip each tas a gesture.

Midway through the event, Timara Zephyr, wearing a backless white trailing gown and holding a glass of red

wine in both elegant hands, was walking towards her.

Elliana’s heart skipped a beat, determined not to touch any of the glasses in Timara Zephyr’s hands.

Logically, it would take Timara Zephyr stto walk over, but as the lead actress, she couldn't leave; she

could only watch as Timara Zephyr approached.

She saw Timara Zephyr chatting and laughing with other crew members as she made her way over, slightly

tipsy, with a flushed oval-shaped face.

Timara Zephyr smiled and said, "Elliana, we've been filming together for so long, come, lettoast you."

Everyone around smiled, watching the two of them, as Elliana smiled and nodded, bracing herself to say, "Sister

Yun, you're too kind."

Elliana raised her glass only to realize it was already empty.

Suddenly, an unknown hand appeared out of nowhere and took her empty glass, and Timara naturally extended

a glass of wine to her.

Timara looked at her with a full smile, gesturing for her to take the glass. Elliana’s hand paused in the air, feeling

as if the glass in Timara’s hand was an abyss.

But as the lead actress of South Wind Song, Elliana attracted too much attention. If she didn’t take it, Timara

would surely have something to say, so she awkwardly accepted the glass from Timara.

Seeing Elliana accept it, Timara’s smile grew wider, "Elliana, may our South Wind Song be a big hit. | toast to you

with this glass."

Elliana maintained her smile and said, "Sister Yun, you've worked hard too," secretly thinking: "As if I'd believe

you!"

As their glasses clinked, Elliana pretended to slip, losing her balance, and the glass in her hand dropped to the

floor.

The red liquid soaked into the light-yellow carpet, quickly leaving a dark red stain.

"Elliana, are you alright?" Concerned people gathered around, wanting to show their care.

Supported by Timara, Elliana shook her head and smiled at them before turning to Timara and saying, "Sorry."

"It’s fine." Timara said, helping her up.

Once Elliana regained her footing, someone unexpectedly handed her another glass of wine. Turning to see who,

it was May Lewis, who played the role of Cailin.

She looked seventeen or eighteen, pure and youthful, this girl seldom spoke in the crew, playing a small maid

role.

Elliana took the glass and kindly said, "Thank you."

"Elliana, you're too polite," May Lewis shyly bowed her head.

After thanking May Lewis, Elliana raised her glass and addressed the surrounding staff and actors: "Everyone has

worked hard, let's have a toast. May our work keep getting better and better,"

With that, Elliana slightly tilted her head back and downed the wine in one go.
