Spoiled by the Silver Fox

"It ain't no big deal; after you guys get hitched, we'll be there toasting to your happiness!"

Smiling lightly, Sebastian said, "I'll send out the invites when the time comes."

At his words, Dashiell's pupils shrunk.

Sebastian, a business tycoon, standing at the pinnacle of the food chain in the upper echelons of B-City.

He was serious about marrying Stephanie, making her the lady of his house...

That wasn't going to be a walk in the park.

After changing her clothes and doing her makeup, Stephanie was far from her previous beggar-like state. She was now a matron.

Her outfit was as modest as always... she even made herself a bit uglier, looking less glamorous and worn out.

The scene she was about to shoot involved a painful scream during childbirth, followed by a desperate fight to protect her newborn child when her family gets wiped out.

Watching this scene, Dashiell's eyes turned red. He was utterly absorbed.

Watching from the side, Sebastian twitched his mouth, "You crying?"

Seriously?

He didn't feel a thing.

Other than a slight urge to laugh, Stephanie's acting seemed pretty good. However, the director was far from satisfied.

He barked, "Stephanie, I know you haven't had a child! But couldn't you do some research beforehand? Who gives birth like that? Your expression is like you're at a funeral! Your character's family hasn't died yet! They die after the birth; get your timeline straight!"

The next moment, the director felt a chill rushing toward him.

Mr. Finnegan felt a shiver down his spine. He turned to see the powerful man who was previously with Stephanie staring at him with cold eyes.

He couldn't help but grumble, "I said no family allowed, and you still brought them! What, you don't like my attitude? This is how I direct! If you can't stand it, hit the road, don't get in my way." Dashiell quickly tried to smooth things over, "Mr. Ingram, don't mind Mr. Finnegan... He's got a temper, but he means well; he's just very demanding regarding his work."

Then he went over to Mr. Finnegan and whispered, "Mr. Finnegan, are you trying to commit suicide? This guy's not someone any of us can afford to offend! Better tone it down, alright?"

Mr. Finnegan frowned, "Why should I

tone it down in my territory? Even if the king came, I'd still do things my way! Stephanie, you've got five minutes to figure this out! Let's take a five-minute break."

With a wry smile, Stephanie climbed out of bed, picked up her phone, and studied childbirth videos.

Suddenly, a cup of hot latte was handed to her.

Looking up in surprise, she saw her Silver Fox standing beside her, "Take a break if you're tired."Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

Stephanie chuckled, "I'm not tired, Silver Fox, just a bit cold..."

Sebastian removed his coat and draped it over her, wrapping her up snugly, then said, "Have some hot drink; it'll warm you up."

Taking the latte, Stephanie took a sip and said, "Thanks... I'm really embarrassed. I thought I was doing well, I even prepared beforehand, but I still didn't meet Mr. Finnegan's expectations." "If you can't act, then don't."

"No... I have to act. Don't worry

about my suffering; you can support

me even if I do nothing. But I really like acting. I enjoy working hard to improve a scene and getting the director's proval. Please be patient with me a little longer; I'll get better soon..."
