She kept her expression sweet and mild, curling her lips into a modest smile. “I’m not in a rush or anything.”
Matheo suddenly asked in a soft voice, “So tell me, Julia–what do you want to do in the industry? Singing? Acting? Variety shows?
Her eyes widened in surprise. Joy bloomed instantly in her gaze.
He was already thinking about helping her take the first step.
“I’m open to anything,” she said, her voice delicate and light. “But right now, the most important thing is exposure–just something to help get my face out there.”
She paused briefly, then ventured carefully, “Like, would there be any way for me to get on a TV show?”
She lowered her gaze again, her voice extra soft. “I mean, I don’t have to… but something with a big audience would really help me as a newcomer.”
Matheo considered her words carefully and nodded. “Got it. Actually, I do know some people at the TV station. I’ll ask around tomorrow,” he said, voice calm and smooth. “See if there’s anything that suits you. You’re right–first–timers need visibility. If something good comes up. I’ll get your name on it. How’s that sound?”
Julia’s heart felt like it was glowing.
She gripped her phone tightly, thrilled to the core. But because she was still on the call with Matheo, she kept her expression soft and composed. She knew exactly what kind of daughter Matheo liked.
That was the version of herself she showed him.
After the video call ended, Matheo walked out of his study. Everything Julia had asked for was fresh in his mind–he planned to act on it first thing tomorrow.
The next day, Matheo made an appointment to have lunch with the director of a local TV station.
He and this station head had some history. They’d met for drinks plenty of times before.
Matheo toasted him a few times and kept the drinks flowing. Once they were both in good spirits, he finally broached the topic.
“So, I’ve got a young relative–about thirteen,” he began casually.
Of course, he couldn’t say it was his daughter. He just framed Julia as a niece or something vague.
“Is there anything she could appear in?” Matheo smiled as he asked, his checks flushed from the alcohol “Doesn’t have to be a big role or anything Just something to help her get a little

The station head gave him a knowing smile. “Let me think…”
He took a moment, tapping his lips in thought. Then his eyes brightened.

“Actually, something might be perfect. We’ve got a new variety show in development–and we just signed someone you’re very familiar with.”
“Someone I’m familiar with?” Matheo raised a brow, curious. “Don’t keep me in suspense now. Who is it?”
The director’s grin deepened. “Your son. Easton.”
Matheo paused.
He hadn’t seen Easton in a long time. Their relationship had always been… strained. Not close, but not entirely broken.
Still, if Julia and Easton ended up in the same show-
That could be a problem.
One was his publicly acknowledged son. The other was the daughter he’d kept secret for over a decade.
If Julia’s identity were exposed… things could go sideways fast,
Bui Julia was smart. If he reminded her to be careful, she wouldn’t slip up.
And Easton was at the peak of his popularity right now. If Julia appeared on a show with him, her exposure would skyrocket–maybe even make her famous overnight..
After weighing the risks, Matheo decided to go
for it.
“Oh, Easton,” Matheo finally said, forcing a smile. “Yeah, that’d be great. My boy really is doing well these days… Let’s lock it in, shall we?”
Meanwhile.
Jean was on her way to school.
It was late afternoon, the sun shining bright above.
She sat in the back of a Rolls–Royce, holding a small box in her hands. noveldrama
She’d spent the entire morning preparing what was inside.
Jean’s expression was cool and composed. She stared blankly out the window, watching the scenery pass. They were only a few hundred meters from the school now.

When she reached the door to Class 3, the bell had just rung for a break. Students were clustered together in small groups, chatting and messing around.
Jean swept her gaze over them without much interest and stepped inside.
“Jean, you’re back?”
Sofia was the first to spot her. Her eyes lit up with delight, a smile spreading across her face.
The moment she spoke, all the other students turned in unison.
