Never Too Far Novel

“I saw it too. The crew posted a few photos, though. Julian gave everyone presents, not her alone. I can’t believe she’d bluff like that.”

Jessie was surprised. Hey, I’m riding on his coattails, too. I wonder if the public is also gossiping about me.

“The only one who can match Julian now is Jessie. Nobody else can.”

“That’s right! The only female celebrity he treats nicely in private is Jessie. Nobody else.” The assistants kept praising Jessie as they ate their cakes.

Jessie blushed hard at their words.

Back on the island, Queenie was enjoying the beautiful morning view. Every day she woke up, she would have something to look forward to, and life never felt better. She loved this feeling, though, for three days, she didn’t manage to see the sunrise as she had overslept. Every day, she was woken up by Nigel’s kiss, not the sun. Still, it felt good.

She had decided to hold their wedding on this island. The view was perfect, and the villas were aplenty. The island looked like something straight out of a portrait. It was just right for a romantic wedding.

The wedding planners came soon after. They talked about how they should set up the wedding, and the couple finally had something to do, which was planning the wedding. It was an important task for them.

“Alright. Then, we’ll be going to Flor. It’s a quiet place, and it’s nearing autumn after our wedding. We can ski then. I stayed there for six months once. It’s a beautiful place.”

“Sure. Let’s go to Flor, then.” Queenie was looking forward to it. She didn’t mind the place. As long as she was with him, it was fine.

Stardom’s PR department had been busy marketing Jessie and raising her fame. Since she used to work in many films before, they got a lot of info on her. A bunch of indie directors and actors had praised her for her professionalism as well.

She started out being hated, but now fans were starting to know her. And the photos that were released finally showed her true beauty; she looked innocent in them.

Though, of course, there were also female celebrities who were jealous of her. Some even started slandering her.

Fortunately, the PR department cut down on the slanders as soon as they showed up. Everyone soon realized Jessie was not someone whom they could bully and for them to go against Stardom was a foolish move on its own.

The two actresses who tried to slander her even lost all the work they had, including dramas, films, and product ambassadorship. They realized all too late this was the price for slandering Jessie. At the same time, they wondered who Jessie’s backer was. They were too powerful.

“You think Julian would fall for a nobody like you? His tastes are better than this.”

Jessie kept ignoring her. A grey sports car was parked outside. Just as she was about to call her driver, the sports car came over to her. Someone rolled the window down, and a male’s voice came from inside. “Get in, Jessie.”

She looked inside the car, and the sight of Julian shocked her. Why is he picking me up?

Xandra came out just in time to see that, and her eyes went wide with envy. Julian came to pick her up himself? Impossible! I must be seeing things. However, she wouldn’t mistake Julian for anyone else. Not only did he come to pick Jessie up, he even buckled her up. That was something only a boyfriend would do.

Jessie was aware Xandra was watching, but she rolled the window up anyway. Julian drove off into the streets, leaving Xandra alone.
