My Sugar And Your Spice

Chapter 252

yet she claimed to be old. Amelie thought the woman was getting more interesting by the second.Everything had returned to normal by the time they returned to the set, and the other three guests were already in their seats. Notably, the skelf was ashen-faced despite having freshened up.Amelie happened to have noticed the name ‘Lilith Quill’ written on the skelf’s name tag, and it was only then that she remembered the latter shot to fame recently for starring in a social satire drama alongside a veteran actor.In the drama, she was a just and sensible person. But who’d have thought she’d be this muddle-headed in real life?Lilith lifted her eyelids but ultimately dared not look at Amelie. Amelie didn’t bother herself with Lilith either, and she only greeted the other two guests with a nod as she walked past them.As she was about to sit in the sixth seat, she suddenly noticed someone had already taken up Elyse’s seat, and the young woman exuded haughtiness despite wearing delicate makeup.No, it wasn’t aloofness like Fiona’s but haughtiness.Fiona’s aloofness derived from what society made her to be, but this young woman’s condescension evidently came from her family background. In fact, even her eyes were filled with contempt, and it inexplicably reminded her of her ex-mother-in-law, Melissa.Then again, this young woman had everything to do with Melissa, for they were mother and daughter.Yes, the young woman was the one and only Jodie Alston.Even when Amelie had seen far too many things in life, she still couldn’t help being taken aback to encounter Jodie in such an event.Has the ‘Show Your Love’ production team become so undiscriminating nowadays?Of course, Jodie noticed Amelie too, but because Amelie wore a mask, Jodie didn’t make out who it was. Still, it didn’t stop her from looking up condescendingly.The filming began in two shakes, and the hosts briefly introduced Jodie’s background, but because she didn’t have any prominent achievements, they had no choice but to mention her family, shocking the other guests when they learned that she was Leo’s younger sister.Leo single-handedly held up the Alston Family and turned their family business from being on the verge of shutting down to a leading corporate in just a short few years. The man had long become a legend and a household name in Clouson City. Many were curious about Leo’s private life. However, they couldn’t find anything else other than his somewhat messy relationship with Elyse, no matter how they tried.Meanwhile, behind the cameras, the director nodded pleasingly as he looked at the guests’ reactions. This was precisely what he wanted.Celebrities were everywhere nowadays; it was a wealthy family’s life that people were curious about, and Jodie’s inclusion would guarantee a massive wave of viewership.Though Amelie was also surprised by Jodie’s appearance, she merely stayed to fulfill the contract she had signed and had no intention of causing any kind of ruckus. Hence, she naturally wouldn’t have many ideas.Now, I just have to relax, enjoy myself, and be an accompaniment, mused Amelie as she drooped her eyelids lazily.“I’m sure the audience and our female guests are curious to see who our secret admirers are for the night.” The hosts rambled enthusiastically to build up the suspense before finally introducing the male guests.The guys would receive a round of applause when each came out, and the hosts would ask them about their crushes. The audience, too, would guess according to the guys’ answers.The first five were actors who had a few acclaimed works in the past couple of years. Hence, the audience responded enthusiastically. Even those watching the live stream were hyped. Comments were coming in one after another at breakneck speed on the live stream portal.“Our next guest isn’t an actor, but he’s also in showbiz. He’s got the looks, the skills, and the perfect set of techniques that leaves hundreds and thousands of young ladies infatuated with him. But young ladies aren’t the only ones crazy about him. Even moms, grandmas, in fact, even dads and grandpas are crazy about him.” The host evidently spent more time and enthusiasm introducing the sixth guest.Following her instigation, everyone grew increasingly curious, wanting to know just who it could be.“Let’s welcome our next guest!” The second after the host finished her words passionately, a piece of even more exciting music played, and the door in the middle turned from black to a faint Morandi white color.It was a kind of gentle whiteness, warm and wondrous, clean and pure.Meanwhile, the audience all directed their gaze to the slowly opening door and held their breaths in unison.Amelie, too, reflexively looked in that direction to find a nearly thin figure dressed in a similar white color.Despite wearing a plain modern suit, he looked exactly like he could be from a fairy tale. He was unrealistically crisp and handsome, so much so that no one dared to touch him.The
