Cupid’s Arrow Hit On Me by Mr. Adeel

“I‘m warning you, Lyndsey. Mia is the backbone of our company. Be nice and don‘t say or do anything

stupid, okay?” Afraid that she might displease Maria, Jeremy made sure to advise Lyndsey to be on her

best behavior. “I know, I know! Mia‘s my super idol. I‘ll be good, I swear.” “Alright. I‘m counting on you.”

Finally convinced, Jeremy agreed to let her meet Maria. However, he worried about how Lyndsey might

react once she found out how old the other woman really was. “Ding dong.” A few minutes later, the

doorbell to the office rang. As a matter of fact, Maria‘s fingerprints could unlock any encrypted

equipment in Yeez Entertainment, including the safe in the CEO‘s office. However, she believed that

ringing the doorbell was a common courtesy, so Maria stood outside the door and patiently waited for

the door to open. “Is that her? Am I finally gonna meet Mia?!” In her excitement, Lyndsey jumped off

the table and fumbled to pat her wrinkled dress. Jeremy could only roll his eyes and shake his head.

After all, even if he was her boss, Lyndsey had never taken him seriously before. Not once did she

show him proper respect, yet here she was, all ready to behave just because she was about to meet

Mia, the famous script writer. “I‘ll get the door!” Before Jeremy could even respond, Lyndsey had

already darted in front of him. However, when she opened the door, she found a young girl standing

outside. “Um…” Lyndsey tilted her head, feeling a little underwhelmed and disappointed. Granted, she

didn‘t actually know what she was expecting Maria to look like. However, this girl in front of her seemed

to be no more than twenty years old and was even dressed so modestly. There was no way this was

who they were waiting for, right? In her confusion, Lyndsey found herself studying her face and realized

how beautiful the girl was. For an adult who had just turned 27 this year, Lyndsey felt so shocked and

amazed that someone this young could look this pretty. A few seconds later, she came to her senses.

“Sorry, but this is the CEO’s office. Are you here for the audition? The studio’s on the first floor. You can

take the elevator down there.” “No, I‘m not.” Maria spoke concisely.

“oh. Are you a fan then? I can give you an autograph or even take a photo with you if you want, but

we’ll have to be quick because I’m actually really busy right now, okay?” Lyndsey was known for being

nice to her fans. Still, if it weren’t for Maria’s pretty face. Lyndsey wouldn’t have been so patient,

Meanwhile, Maria felt lost for words. She wasn’t even fond of talking, but Lyndsey astounded her

enough to render her completely speechless. Instead, she handed her the final script of The Legend of

Anne, then walked past her into the office. “What– Hey! Where do you think you‘re going? Stop!”

Lyndsey was stunned and even felt a little annoyed. Not only did the girl ignore her, she even had the

audacity to walk into the CEO‘s office without permission. As pretty as she was, Lyndsey thought she

was a little rude. She was about to tell Maria off when her eyes suddenly fell on the document in her

hand. It took a second before her mind processed what was written on the cover. “W–wait… What?!”

Finally, Lyndsey realized what was happening. She quickly turned around only to find Maria already

sitting on Jeremy‘s chair. At the same time, he was making freshly ground coffee for her. “Please

excuse her, Mia. Lyndsey can be a little silly sometimes, but she‘s not so bad.” Jeremy could only smile

awkwardly, obviously feeling apologetic for how Lyndsey acted. Today was their first meeting, yet

Lyndsey had already shown her eccentricity to Maria. He couldn‘t help but feel embarrassed, not only

for her but for himself as well. “I know.” Despite their chagrin, Maria was actually still pretty calm and

unaffected. After all, from her first short story, “The Mountains“, to most of her other works for Yeez

Entertainment, it was Lyndsey that was usually cast as the heroine. Besides, if she had a terrible

personality, Jeremy wouldn‘t be investing in her and trusting her so much. “Ahhh! Y–you‘re… Mia?” No

longer able to contain her elation, Lyndsey screamed in amazement. “Hello. Nice to meet you.” Maria

sounded so cool. “You can also call me by my real name, Maria.”

Since Jeremy hadn‘t finished making the coffee, he stood at the side when Maria introduced herself to

Lyndsey. However, he didn’t expect that she would actually mention something about herself that

personal, so he discreetly wiped the bead of sweat off his temple. When she spoke just now, Jeremy

thought her aura was extremely overwhelming. She just casually stated her real name, but there was

something in her tone that issued a grave warning. Even without her saying anything, they easily

understood that if they dared

Chapter 21 A Misunderstanding leak this secret to anyone, they would suffer dire consequences.

Slightly trembling, Jeremy turned to Lyndsey. Like him, she was also in a bit of a daze. Then, after a

few moments, she couldn‘t help but act like a shy school girl. The truth was that she was intimidated by

Maria. Lyndsey was several years older, but this young girl was far more accomplished than her.

“Anyway, why do you want to see me? I understand that the script i sent over earlier is still incomplete.

Did you have a problem understanding your role because of that?” Maria asked softly, wanting to

address any issue right there and then. Hearing this, Lyndsey blushed so hard, feeling very

embarrassed. She had always been a loyal fan of Mia, but she didn‘t expect that the person she was

respecting and idolizing so much was actually just a teenage girl. The s Maria wrote had

extraordinary momentum, far–reaching meaning, and brilliant foreshadowing. How could they be

written by someone much younger than her? As a fellow woman, she felt like a failure. Lyndsey

couldn‘t help but lo
