Chapter 219
Chapter 219
Producer Yoder had been in the industry for far too long and thus knew the best way to talk someone into drinking. With just a look, he could tell Vicky did not have a high tolerance for alcohol.
‘Once I make her tipsy… Hehe! She’s going to be mine!’ he thought.
Even though Vicky was looking at Producer Yoder’s sleazy expression, her mind was thinking back to how cold and heartless Tyler’s voice was when he held her. It was like he did not know her.
While she was grateful and touched because of Tyler’s small action, he spent 550 million to buy Sheila a bracelet. To make Sheila a rising star, he condescended to accompany Sheila to this meeting, supported her, and practically threw over 150 million just to make the movie.
Even Vicky, his wife, was shocked by his behavior.
She turned and looked at where Tyler was.
She could not see his face with how dim the light was, but she could see he had a glass of wine in his hand. He took a sip without caring and could not be bothered to even look at her. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
This was the same man who had s*x with her last night; the same man who warned her to keep herself from other men.
The same man who was jealous because another man sent her home.
A word from him could save her from this situation, yet he chose to stay quiet and saw how she had to humbly apologize and be forced to drink.
Producer Yoder saw Vicky was zoning out. He grabbed her glass and was going to force her to drink it.
Cece’s face was pale in fright. She had not recovered and she knew she had caused trouble, so she fell silent for a good few seconds. When she realized Vicky was forced to drink again, however, she could not take it anymore.
Just as she was about to say something, someone beat her to it.
“Producer Yoder.” The woman’s voice was clear like the water, very melodious. “Miss Shaw isn’t one to drink. It’s better that you don’t force her to drink more.”
Producer Yoder was startled by Sheila’s intervention. “Miss Young, you know Miss Shaw?”
Sheila smiled, “Yes. I’ve known her way back.” 1
Producer Yoder’s expression changed instantly. After that, he carefully examined the look on Tyler’s face. When he noticed Tyler did not look angry, his hanging heart rested.
He smiled brightly. “Oh, she’s your friend. Why didn’t you say so? It’s just a misunderstanding…”
With Tyler here, Producer Yoder did not dare to offend Sheila. He took away the glass and drank his own wine and mumbled, “It’s just a misunderstanding. It’s just a misunderstanding.”
Neither Sheila nor Vicky was going to say anything. Producer Yoder did not dare to have any ill thoughts about Vicky anymore. He got himself an excuse and sat somewhere else.
Soon, the lively atmosphere returned to the room.
At this, Vicky brought the terrified Cece out of the room by excusing herself to go to the washroom.
“Cece, are you alright?”
Cece nearly burst out in tears. “Vicky, did I cause…trouble for you again?”
“No,” assured Vicky. “I neglected you because I was on the phone. Are you alright?”
Cece shook her head. “I’m fine.”
Vicky looked at Cece’s messy hair and said, “Go wash your face. I’ll say a word to Director Lumber and we can leave.”
Cece was starting to calm down. She looked at Vicky as if she had something to say.
Tyler was there when the whole thing happened, but he did not help Vicky. Instead, it was Sheila who helped Vicky.
Cece knew Sheila did not do it because of kindness; Sheila did it to parade herself to Vicky.
Since Vicky did not say anything about Tyler and Sheila, Cece decided not to say anything.
As they entered the restroom, Vicky also washed her face, and her dizziness started to clear up. When they were ready to leave, someone stood in front of her, stopping her from leaving.
