Chapter 253

Lionel’s announcement about his retirement from showbiz was no joke. Julie walked into the restaurant just in time to see this news on TV.

He made a simple post on Facebook. He promoted Director Babur’s new film, saying it would be his last acting gig.

The media immediately reached out to Lionel’s agency, hoping for an interview, Lionel, being a good sport, agreed. He said he was done with Seasons of Love and had put a stop to all his work, even the promo activities for Babur’s film. He planned to focus on his family from now on.

Lionel’s family had always been a mystery. The media took this chance to ask about it. When asked what he meant by focusing on his family, Lionel said, “I fell in love with a woman and I want to marry her. She is the most important to me and I want to be there for every significant moment in our lives.”

This stirred up the showbiz world. Fans flooded Lionel’s Facebook page with comments, eager to know who the woman was. The most likely candidate seemed to be Daphne, who had been interacting with Lionel a lot recently.

When asked if Daphne was the woman he was in love with, Lionel didn’t give a direct answer. He said, “When she is ready to go public, I’ll be happy to share our good news.”

A reporter asked Lionel if he was worried about losing fans by revealing his personal life. Lionel just laughed and said, “I only want to make it public if I’m indeed in love with someone. I’m eager to let the whole world know that I love her, but it’s up to her to go public.”

Julie, watching the interview in the lobby, was moved by Lionel’s attitude. His responses made all the reporters’ hearts flutter.

Daphne, who happened to see the interview as she entered the restaurant, walked up to Julie and said, “Oh my God, Lionel is such a good actor. I almost believed

him.”

“He’s decided to retire. How can it be fake?” Julie looked at Daphne. She was dressed in a down jacket, with a face mask and sunglasses, and couldn’t help frowning. “Daphne, you look like a celebrity or a lunatic. Julie commented.

Daphne was speechless. After removing her sunglasses and hat, she dragged Julie to the office. She seemed excited, saying. “Alaric and Edda agreed with me. Mrs. Flores says the world of the rich is complicated. She told me not to get involved easily.”

Before Daphne could finish her sentence, she heard Julien say, “Lionel is not bad.”
