Chapter 1927: Tess Tate Came to Help Her

After a while, she opened the script again and carefully felt her way through it, silently reciting her lines over and over. Even though she already knew them by heart, she was brewing her emotions.

Under the bright lights, Abby’s long, black, silky hair looked beautiful, as if it had a glossy sheen. The ends curled slightly, adding a hint of seduction to her innocent look.

Her eyes were as beautiful as amber, and her skin was very fair—the kind of milky complexion all girls envied.

Downstairs, Tess had just gotten out of the car and rushed in hastily. Today was her first day at work.

She didn’t know if Abby had come yet. If she had, she couldn’t leave her all alone; she had to hurry upstairs to keep her company.

They were clearly old friends who had known each other a long time, best girlfriends.

But Tess had to act like it was their first meeting, then forget everything from the past and get to know and get along with Abby all over again.

This was also a big test of Tess’s acting skills.

What would happen when Anton saw Abby today? He also had to pretend he didn’t know her. Would he be able to control his emotions?

It seemed that to take Abby’s feelings into account and also give Anton a bit more time, Tess had to deliver her best acting performance; otherwise the whole thing would fall apart.

Tess felt an enormous amount of pressure.

After going upstairs, Tess walked into the makeup room. There weren’t many artists here yet, so she quickly spotted a somewhat inconspicuous figure sitting inside who looked familiar.

It was Abby!

Tess walked toward her, and as she got closer, she saw that natural face more clearly. It wasn’t much different from their school days—still very pretty, still with that pure, clean vibe.

She composed herself and came to a stop beside Abby Sawyer. "Hello, may I ask if you’re Miss Abby Sawyer?"

The girl sitting in the chair reading the script came back to herself and looked up, meeting Tess’s smiling gaze. "Yes."

"My name is Tess Tate, I’m your agent and assistant." Tess reached out her hand. "I’m very happy to be working with you, Abby."

Abby Sawyer was surprised. They even assigned her an agent and an assistant? Who arranged that?

This girl looked kind of familiar.

Abby didn’t think too much about it and didn’t ask either. She hurriedly set the script down and stood up. "Hello." She smiled and reached out to shake the girl’s hand.

Tess glanced around. More artists were arriving one after another; some had already started getting their makeup done.

"You might have to line up for the crew’s makeup artist. I’ve also learned makeup, so... do you want to let me give it a try?" Tess looked at the various cosmetics laid out on the table and asked softly. She had a bit of confidence in her skills.

"Sure." Abby Sawyer was easy to get along with. She sat back down in the chair. "Have you studied my character?"

"Telma, right?"

Abby turned her eyes. "You’ve read the script?"

"I read it last night."

Abby was quite pleased. "Mm, so for my makeup, the lighter the better—barely there, that kind of look. I can’t steal the female lead’s thunder."

"Got it." Tess put down her bag and got to work.

Downstairs.

Two luxury cars approached from opposite directions, almost slowing down at the same time, then stopped outside the lobby of the first floor at the exact same moment. The two car fronts faced each other, only a meter apart, parked perfectly level.

Anton Miller and Angel arrived at the same time, as if they had arranged it in advance.

The car doors opened. Their assistants got out first, and then, almost in the same second, Anton Miller and Angel stepped out, appearing in everyone’s line of sight.

Anton Ford’s features were deep and well-defined, cold and wildly handsome. His black, jade-like hair had a faint shine. His figure was perfect, and his aura was a little chilly.

Angel was dressed all bling-bling, exuding refinement and luxury from head to toe. Even a random bag she carried cost over a hundred thousand, and her makeup was already done.

"Wow! Anton Ford is so handsome!!"

"It’s Angel!! Look!! She’s so beautiful!"

"They look so good together! Totally the golden boy and jade girl!"

"They actually arrived at the same time!!"

The fans and reporters who had been waiting around them for a long time kept taking photos of the two. Inside the cordoned-off area, security guards were maintaining order, doing their best to keep everyone from crossing the line.

Screams of adoration rang out one after another! The cameras clicked nonstop.
