Chapter 213

Lucinda hadn’t even been able to attend Sean and Charlotte’s engagement party. At the time, she had been overseas attending a major international film festival and simply couldn’t get away

This time, when Sean decided he had to make Charlotte give up on him completely, he went straight to his distant cousin and asked her to help him put on a show

When Lucinda first heard that her cousin wanted her to “act,” she assumed he was producing some blockbuster and hail come to her for casting. She lit up with a

contide smile.

*Sean, if you’re investing. It’s gotta be something big. You’ve come to the right person. I’m an award–winning actress, remember? If I star in your mode, it’s guaranteed to brahit!”

But Sean’s expression was cold, and his tone was flat

“It’s not a mode. I need you to act–forreal”

Lucinda’s smile froze.

Wait, what?”

“You’re going to play my numored girlfriend.”

Lucinda stared at him.

You dealing with a clingy ex or something? Want me to be your decoy?”

She sniffed out gossip immediately, eyes lighting up with interest

“That can’t be right. You’re sean Jasper. What kind of woman would dare cling to you? Besides, don’t you already have a fiancée?”

Sean’s expression darkened

She’s not clingy. She’s the only woman I’ve ever loved.”

Lucinda blinked. It took her a moment to process that.

Uncharacteristically patient, Sean explained the whole situation to her.

When he finished, Lucinda let out a long sigh.

Wow. Poor girl. Do I get a say in this? I haven’t even met her, and now I’m supposed to play the other woman in her love story? How am I supposed to look herin the eye after this

*This is your payment.” Sean held out a black card.

Lucinda scoffed and tumed away

“Please. You can’t just buy me oft. I don’t do gigs that hurt beautiful, innocent women.

Lucinda paused.

Well when you put it like that, we are doing this to protect her. Once the truth comes out, I’m sure she’ll understand. She seems like the reasonable type,” she slowly reached over and plucked the card from his hand with a gdn.

“Don’t blame me,” she thought silently. “He offered way too

y taxes. But now? A few staged photos, a little acting,

She could spend months filming a drama and barely make that kind of money. In addition, she still had to pay t and she would walk away with the same paycheck. It was the easiest job she would ever tak

Sean’s exprsstoemained cool and unreadable.

“Relax. You’ve got the best the business. I didn’t win that Best Actress trophy for nothing”

After lunging up the phone, Charlotte sat by the window, her eyes vacant and tears streaming uncontrollably.

She picked up right away, heart pounding. Some part of her still hoped he was calling to explain everything to tell her it was all a misunderstanding. Seam’s voice was calm, almost ton calm.

Lulu said you called earlier. What did you want?”

Such an intimate way to address her.
