Chapter 37: Follow My Lead
Chapter 37: Follow My Lead
This night, Gwenda was in a muddleheaded state. She did not even know when Olivier had brought her
home.
Upon getting home, she buried herself under the covers in an attempt to force herself to sleep. But
when she closed her eyes, the scene of Olivier kissing her this afternoon appeared in her mind's eye.
...
Gwenda rolled herself into a ball under the blanket and screamed internally from the depths of her
heart.
"This damned Olivier!
Cunning b*stard!
He tricked me again!" Gwenda seethed in thought.
......
The next day, when the sun brightened the sky, Gwenda woke with difficulty and went to wash up in
order to go to work.
However, upon reaching the first floor, a inconspicuous black car stopped in front of her.
The window rolled down and a handsome face appeared.
Gwenda froze. "You... Why are you here again?"
"Since I am wooing you, I should be wooing you properly, yes? So, I'm here to send you to work."
Olivier leaned over and opened the car door for her with sincerity.
Gazing at the guy who made her lose sleep last night, Gwenda glared at him and refused. "I have my
own car. You don't need to send me to work."
"Are you sure you don't?" Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Olivier unbuckled his seat belt and made it look like as if he was about to get out of the car.
Gwenda did not know what he was up to and her eye twitched. "I..."
"Get in."
Olivier's tone of finality showed that he was not to be denied in the slightest.
Gwenda pursed her lips, still hesitating.
"Or you can choose to let me carry you in."
Olivier cocked an eyebrow at her, his tone serious, which meant he was likely not joking about it.
Gwenda inhaled sharply and quickly made her decision by getting into the car.
Seeing this, Olivier smiled and took a paper bag from the back seat, handing it over to her. "Breakfast."
Gwenda was stunned when she saw the logo on the bag. She asked blankly, "How did you know I like
eating from this restaurant?"
"I guessed."
Olivier answered with yet another cocked eyebrow.
Gwenda eyed him suspiciously and accepted the bag, huffing, "I'm going to be late for work. Please
drive."
Soon, the car arrived at the ground floor of the studio.
Unfastening her seat belt, Gwenda said, "Thanks for sending me over. But you don't have to trouble
yourself in the future, I can drive."
"I know you are very independent, but you don't have to be when you're with me."
Olivier's large hand gently ruffled her lovely hair. He gazed at her steadily and murmured, "I just want to
spoil you."
...
Gwenda's heart felt like as if it had been hit by something as it stuttered all of a sudden.
...
Blinking, Gwenda opened the car door and said, "I'll be going now."
Her face burning red, Gwenda got out of the car and fled after that.
Seeing this, Olivier's eyebrows went up slightly as he chuckled, started the car and drove away.
......
Gwenda was stupefied early in the morning from Olivier's teasing.
She only returned to her senses after drinking two large cups of black coffee.
Near noon, Gwenda had finished up with her work and was about to call everyone to grab lunch with
her when Hattie entered her office.
"Gwenda, I've got some bad news..."
Frantically, Hattie continued, "The production team of "The Best Singer" called and said they don't need
Cecilia for the interview anymore."
"But how? What happened?"
Gwenda leapt up from her chair.
Hattie said, "They said that they had found a better candidate."
"A better candidate?"
Gwenda frowned.
Hattie nodded. "Judging from their tone, he seems to be more famous than us."
Gwenda was speechless, she thought, "Such a thing didn't happen in my last life!
...
Is this change due to the fact that I've gone off track from the original timeline? Causing Cecilia's path
to diverge from the original?"
"Gwenda, what do we do now? Do we tell Cecilia?"
"No need."
Bracing herself against her table, Gwenda said with a frown, "Find out who it is first."
"Okay."
Hattie left and did as she was told.
After about ten minutes later, she got the information.
"Gwenda, it's Ian Russell from KG Entertainment."
"Ian Russell?!"
Gwenda raised her eyebrows in surprise.
Ian was KG Entertainment's only popular artist.
Therefore, they consider him of great importance and have been trying to find ways to make him a top-
tier singer.
If Gwenda recalled correctly, Ian never made it to "The Best Singer" in her last life. In fact, he got
banned after some sort of incident and eventually dropped off the grid.
Gwenda wondered, "What sort of incident was it...?"
"Gwenda, what do we do now?"
Hattie asked anxiously.
"What's today's date?"
Gwenda suddenly asked.
Hattie was stunned, "It's April 7th."
"April 7th."
Gwenda mulled over this information before her eyes lit up. "What a coincidence! It's today!"
"What is coincidental?"
"Don't ask. Call Laurinda right now and tell her to follow me. We're going to get a great scoop!"
With that, Gwenda began to prepare the things that she needed in a hurry.
Hattie was confused, but she followed Gwenda's instructions anyway and called Laurinda, who worked
in a magazine publishing house.
Soon, the three of them met at the first floor of the studio.
Seeing Gwenda, Laurinda gave her an enthusiastic hug and said, "Gwenda! Are you going to let me do
another exclusive interview with Cecilia again?"
Laurinda and Gwenda were from the same alma mater, but they had only known each other for a few
days.
Gwenda happened to catch Laurinda snooping around Cecilia for pictures previously. After having a
chat, they found out that they had plenty in common. Additionally, Gwenda needed an avenue to
promote Cecilia, so she decided to cooperate with Laurinda.
All news about Cecilia had been reported by Laurinda.
"We aren't doing news on Cecilia today."
"Oh? Then, why did you find me?"
"You'll know when we get there."
