“But I did tell you. I even texted you about it. Have you checked your phone lately?”
Stella shook her head in confusion and rubbed her brow.” I’m sorry. I really have something to do…”
“Okay.” Angelina let go of her in slight disappointment.” If you really have something to do, you’d better
go back first.”
Stella’s heart softened at Angelina’s disappointed look.” Okay. I’ll go with you.”
Angelina immediately smiled. “You’re the best!”
After arriving at the mall, Stella realized that most of the young actresses in the cast were there.
They came to a newly built and fully functional mall. Many had gone to the cinema.
The crew was filming next to this mall, so people usually came over to relax. They did not worry about
being recognized by others while shopping at night.
This mall was known to be the place where some celebrities would come to shop. Many fans would
come here to meet their favorite star on purpose. Therefore, the security of the mall was great too.
Angelina wore a mask and said, “Actually, no one will recognize me. I don’t know why I have to be fully
covered.”
Stella glanced at the other actresses that were also wearing hats and sunglasses. She said, “It’s better
to wear them if everyone else is wearing them too. Better be safe than sorry.”
“You’re right.” Angelina nodded.
The crew had split into small groups. Those who were close grouped and shopped together. After
shopping for a while , Angelina suddenly put her hand on her stomach and said, “Hey, I’m not feeling
well. You can go to the store first. I’ll come back later…”
Stella helped her carry her bag and watched her go to the bathroom. Then, she went shopping in a
random store by herself.
After she had agreed to go shopping with Angelina , she had told Weston she would be late tonight.
Weston did not say anything about that. He told her that the driver would wait for her at the same
place.
Stella was not used to Weston’s sudden change in attitude. He was suddenly so easy to talk to and
nice to her. However, she did not think much about it.
She still had her black card lying in her bag. Weston might be unhappy if the card remained
untouched.
Stella thought about it and decided that this was a good opportunity to use his card. Anyway, she just
had to let Weston know she was not intentionally separating things between them. If he wanted her to
act like it, she would do it.
Stella went into a random clothing store. She had not heard of the niche brand before.
When she went in, she saw two staff at the front desk playing with their phones with their heads down.
The cashier’s side was empty too. No one was around. There was no sales assistant around either. It
seemed like the store did not have a good business.
She was happy that the store was quiet, so she just browsed around the store. She would feel
uncomfortable with an overly enthusiastic saleslady around her.
Stella found a simple trench coat with an elegant cut in camel color. It seemed to suit her style.
The fabric was textured, but it did not look particularly luxurious.
She had her eyes on it at first glance and asked the staff to help her get a suitable size to try on.
“Excuse me,”
Before she could finish speaking, a sudden noise came from behind her.
She turned back and saw Guinevere walking in with several other people. Some actresses from the
cast surrounded her and followed her around. They were usually on good terms, so they flattered her
and asked, “ Ms. Cohen, do you like this brand too?”
Guinevere saw Stella when she came in. She only glanced at her once, then ignored her. She replied
faintly, “Yeah. It’s a very niche brand. I don’t like to wear the same clothes as others.”
