Chapter 1001
Maja sent Zoey out and then called in Shawn.
Shawn was dressed to the nines today, likely fresh from a magazine shoot, his makeup still intact.
“Mr. Pennyfeather, I heard from Mr. Elvis that you got hurt. How are you feeling?”
“It’s nothing serious.”
Shawn was tall, and from his vantage point, he could easily see the trace beneath Maja’s collar, a hint of a
passionate encounter with another
man.
His fingers tightened on the side, a twinge of resentment stirring within him.
Was lan trying to make a statement by deliberately leaving marks in such a place?
Mr Pennyfeather wasn’t his to claim exclusively, nor was she anyone else’s to claim.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaja, oblivious to Shawns feelings, looked up and asked him smilingly.
“Did something happen during the shoot? I remember you joined a new project recently, didn’t you?”
“No, everything is harmonious. The reputation of Star Movie Group is great, and the director is also good to me.”
“That’s good, the company won’t force you to meet with investors. If anyone gives you a hard time, be sure to tell
Elvis.”
Shawn looked down. It was a long time before he asked, “Aren’t you bothered by all the people online defaming me
and you, Mr. Pennyfeather?”
Netizens claimed that Maja was trying to sleep her way to the top with Shawn, and this rumor had been ongoing.
Maja’s tone was indifferent.
“You’re a celebrity, you should have prepared for public scrutiny when you entered this industry The money you
earn in a month might be more than what an ordinary person makes in a lifetime. Therefore, you must be a
hundred times stronger than them mentally. Don’t take to heart whatever you see online.”
Maja’s words were all official, meant to console her artists. She gave Shawn no room for imagination.
Shawn stood there, watching as she lowered her head, and focused on the documents on her computer.
Her hair had grown longer, now reaching a little beyond her shoulders Some strands were mischievously scattered
on her cheek. He had an urge to tuck her hair behind her ear.
But he didnt dare
After a few minutes of silence, Maja finally asked, “Is there anything else?”
The implication was clear, if there was nothing else, he could leave.
As soon as Shawn left the office, his agent was there to meet him.
“Shawn, the next shoot is in half an hour. You should head out now, or the editor will be on our case again.”
Turned out. Shawn had slipped away from the set because he knew Maja was at the office
“Okay”
He got into the car, and his agent, Byron, took the driver’s seat
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmByron had been his agent for many years. Recently, Star Movie Group was hiring agents, and since Elvis held most
of the power, he had requested Byron to join
Byron could tell at a glance that Shawn had feelings for Maja. He advised, “Mr. Penny feather doesn’t seem like the
type to get involved in romantic entanglements. She’s dedicated to her work If you want to get her attention,
Shawn, you need to focus on your acting and win some awards. Once you’re the company’s biggest cash cow,
she’ll want to see you every day
Shawn looked out of the window, he knew Byron was right. That’s how he had been thinking, too.
But he was afraid that while he was busy acting, she would suddenly marry lan
From a man’s perspective, lan was indeed an excellent catch
But first, there had been rumors about him and Carlene, and now he had another woman by his side. He was no
match for Mr. Pennyfeather
Looking in the rearview mirror, the agent sighed
“Even if Mr. Pennyfeather gets mamed one day, think about it, there’s no real love in high society. When her
husband is keeping a mistress, she can keep a lover, too That’s your chance to step in, Shawn.”
Shawn remained silent, leaning his forehead against the cool window glass.
