Charlotte Thompson didn’t look back or say hello to Justin Battleson, she hurriedly got in the car.
It was Henry Hudson who greeted Justin Battleson, and then drove away with Charlotte.
Justin Battleson stood still, squinting his eyes watching the car disappear until it was out of his sight.
Unusually, he lit a cigarette, lightly flicking the ashes, the thick white smoke filling the air.
He exhaled a thick cloud of smoke in frustration.
This woman, Sophie Allen, she’s really two-faced!
She has been denying her relationship with Henry Hudson, but as soon as her foster mother died, she can’t wait to live with Henry Hudson!
This woman truly has a heart of stone.
The sky was getting darker, he got in the car, and drove off.
In the car, Charlotte Thompson took a deep breath, as if the constant distress that had accumulated in her chest had suddenly eased.
Looking at her expression through the rearview mirror, Henry raised the corners of his lips slightly, "Finally relieved?"
Charlotte nodded, "Yes, the burden was too heavy, finally I’m free."
"By the way, how did you know I was at the Civil Affairs Bureau? You came just in time."
"I went to the Thompson’s house to find you but you were not there, I just happened to run into Jordan Thompson, he said you were at the Civil Affairs Bureau for a divorce," Henry Hudson said honestly, "I was afraid Justin might give you a hard time, so I came to check."
Somehow, Charlotte strongly believed that Justin wouldn’t give her a hard time that day.
In her view, on the matter of divorce, Justin Battleson definitely hoped it would go smoothly.
Therefore, at this critical moment, he wouldn’t make things difficult for her, but rather he would try to accommodate her wishes.
"Charlotte, does he...know about the Thompson family?" Henry Hudson was a bit curious.
Charlotte, with a calm expression, slowly shook her head. Thɪs chapter is updatᴇd by novelFirｅ.net
On the other side, inside the exhibition center.
A nanny car slowed down, the car door was opened, Evelyn Curtis’s white legs reached out of the car, and then she appeared in everyone’s line of sight.
She was wearing a pale blue cheongsam, which made her skin look extremely white, and her body curves were exceptionally outlined due to the slight inward tightening at the waist.
As soon as she got out of the car, she attracted many admiring gazes.
The director greeted her from a distance, wore a smile, and said, "Evelyn, the press conference is about to start. You should go in first."
The venue had been set up by the program group in advance. After all, they had spent a lot of money to film this drama series, so they naturally couldn’t lack in the press conference.
Evelyn Curtis casually glanced around, her eyes flashing with satisfaction.
In the center of the venue hung a very large poster, which was the promotional image of the TV series, and among all figures on the poster was Evelyn Curtis.
Provided this drama brings her popularity and fame, she could forever escape her rural girl identity and step into high society.
Following from behind, the assistant whispered, "Evelyn, most of the reporters are already in the conference hall. I checked the time, and there are about twenty minutes left. Do you want to take a rest now?"
Upon hearing this, Evelyn Curtis lifted her eyes slightly, a trace of impatience flashing in her eyes.
"Try not to follow me later, I already know what I should do."
After all, she was annoyed with people always telling her what to do.
She hated the feeling of her fate being controlled by others.
The twenty minutes passed in a flash, and the press conference officially started, the TV series is a drama called "Republic of China’s Beauty".
And with Evelyn Curtis’s cheongsam dress, she was already breathtakingly stunning at her entrance.
The camera flashes kept going off, and Evelyn Curtis stood on the stage with an appropriate smile on her face.
She’d trained for a month on managing her expressions for this press conference, and now it seemed, the results were quite good.
It wasn’t in vain that she had been practicing in front of the mirror every day these past weeks.
After the director’s speech, a journalist in the audience asked loudly: "Miss Curtis, we’ve never heard of you before. But now, you’ve been chosen to play the lead female role in Mr. Carter’s new drama. Can you tell us why?"
