Chapter 2169 - 2177: No Wonder

~3 min read 588 words

As an actor, having such noticeable scars on a prominent part of your arm has a major impact, which everyone knows, right? Does Stella Carter need to emphasize that loudly?

"Stella Carter, your relationship with your Cousin Misty shouldn’t be too bad, right?" Coco Edwards didn’t care about how Stella Carter felt, she just went ahead and asked.

Stella Carter didn’t expect Coco Edwards to curse her like that, and then suddenly ask about her relationship with Jillian.

Jillian Carter is James Carter’s younger sister, the Elder Miss of the Carter Family. Without much thought, Stella Carter admitted, "Cousin Misty is quite nice."

"No wonder." Coco Edwards let out a sneering laugh and muttered to herself.

Birds of a feather.

All annoying people.

Stella Carter noticed something in Coco Edwards’ expression, perhaps the reason Coco Edwards asked this question wasn’t what she initially thought.

So Stella Carter wisely kept her mouth shut, didn’t speak further, nor did she leave. She continued to sit there, listening to everyone chat with Jane Sampson, listening to everyone comfort Jane Sampson by saying how advanced medical science is now and that there are many ways to remove scars, telling Jane Sampson not to worry.

After the back-and-forth between Coco Edwards and Stella Carter, everyone began to notice a pattern—that Jane Sampson and Stella Carter’s relationship was rather ordinary.

It wasn’t as harmonious as everyone initially thought due to James Carter’s connection, as Jane Sampson and Stella Carter seemed not to be getting along well.

On reflection, everyone also figured that likely Stella Carter harbored some grievances, and within the film crew, people close to Stella Carter often stood up for her.

Therefore, it seemed quite normal for these two to have an average relationship.

James Black said he was going to buy some stuff, and Jane Sampson never expected that James Black would go out to buy cold drinks.

He drove out, and it took him about an hour to return. When the car pulled up at the doorway, he called someone to help carry things.

Watching the people come in carrying boxes of cold drinks and prepared fruits, Jane Sampson was wide-eyed with surprise.

"It’s hot, Mr. Black treats everyone to milk tea and fruits." Coco Edwards and Harry Little Money proactively greeted everyone, distributing the fruits and milk tea one by one.

Jane Sampson basically jumped out of the chair and ran over to James Black, happily hugging him in front of everyone, laughing, "Milk tea! Milk tea! Iced milk tea!"

"What made you suddenly think of buying milk tea for us?" Jane Sampson found it rather strange, "This is so unlike you."

Despite her words, Jane Sampson was still very happily hugging James Black, smiling.

The girl in his arms was so exceptionally happy that even James Black couldn’t help but tell her the truth.

"Let me correct you, not us, just them." James Black gently tousled Jane Sampson’s hair, "Mr. Zhang mentioned you can’t have cold drinks, so there’s no milk tea for you."

Sure enough, the next second, Jane Sampson, who was just as chirpy and acting spoiled like a little sparrow in his arms, suddenly looked downcast.

"Not for me, huh~" Her tone was filled with disappointment, her gaze seemed to be saying loud and clear.

Baby is aggrieved.

"There, there~" James Black almost felt guilt and pity from her gaze, "I bought you some fruits, have some fruits."

"Alright~" Jane Sampson sniffled, nodded, and burrowed her face into James Black’s arms, still a bit sulky.
