Chapter 231 A Coincidental Encounter

I splashed water on my face and took deep breaths. Lauren called for a drink and handed

me a glass.

I felt calmer after downing it. Then I covered my face with a towel and said, “Go ahead

and chat. I’ll rest

for a bit.”

“Why are yo

you napping all day? You just slept in your car, and now you’re sleeping again?” Ivanna

teased me, giving me a playful nudge. “What’s going on with you?”

“There’s too much going on lately. I’m working myself to death! Cut me some slack, will

you?” I replied from behind the towel.

Tears had already mixed with the water droplets on my face.

Ivanna didn’t press me and chatted with Lauren instead. +regained my composure before

removing the towel from my face.

“Weren’t you napping?” Ivanna asked. “You know, you do look like that actress I

mentioned earlier. Chloe, I’ll be your manager if you ever want to step into showbiz.

Although you’re much prettier than her.”

“Step into showbiz? I’m about to step into another world.”

Lauren handed me a glass of wine, which I sipped.

Both of them chuckled. “So you want to be a celestial being now?”

We continued our conversation until I was utterly exhausted. “I swear, if we keep soaking

any longer, I’ll

turn into a prune! I’m starving to death. Can’t we eat?”

Lauren and Ivanna giggled, and we went to the dining room.

The food here was exceptional. I devoured everything in sight, replenishing my energy and

filling my emotional vold.

As we headed back to our private room, we bumped into the two people I least wanted to

see. They were both impeccably dressed.

The woman exclaimed, “Ivanna! You’re here too!”

Ivanna turned to look, then stared at me, dumbfounded. I gave the woman a cursory

once–over. Something about her seemed oddly familiar.

Lauren pulled me over, and my bathrobe slipped to the ground. I quickly draped it back

on.

Ivanna’s voice was calm as she said, “What a coincidence!”

“Yeah, just having a casual meal with Mr. Atlas!” The woman seemed to be explaining

herself to Ivanna

“Of course, this is a great place for a meal!” Ivanna’s voice had a hint of sarcasm. “Enjoy

your time. I’m here with my best friends!”

Ivanna didn’t engage with the woman any further. Instead, she took my arm and led us to

our room.

I didn’t look at Atlas throughout the entire encounter. Honestly, I was too afraid to. I hoped

it was all just

an illusion

In the room, Ivanna immediately scrutinized me. “Did you see them earlier?”

Ivanna was perceptive and had noticed my emotional turmoil.

I chuckled faintly and asked, “Does it make a difference?”

Lauren had been observing me closely, occasionally sharing glances with Ivanna. They

were clearly

worried about me.

I suddenly laughed. “What’s with those faces?”

“Chlo, if there’s something on your mind, let it out. Don’t keep it to yourself,” Ivanna said

earnestly. “You

shouldn’t take that too seriously

“Exactly, who knows? Maybe it’s some important discussion,” Lauren added.

“What are you trying to say? I wasn’t thinking that far, but after hearing you two, now I

am.” I looked at them with a smile, probably looking worse than if I were crying.

“Do you know who that woman is?” Ivanna asked, looking at me intently.

“I don’t know, and I don’t want to know! I remained calm and said it plainly.

“It’s that actress I complained about–Harmony Hampton, the one under our label!‘ Ivanna

said in annoyance, “I said she was getting a big head. It turns out, she thought she

snagged herself a sugar daddy! That little-*

Ivanna’s words snapped me back. I realized that the face I saw just now did seem oddly

familiar.
