Chapter 1643 To Stardom
They’re being unreasonable. Jessie then took her bag. “I’m not talking to you.”
“Hey, that’s a limited-edition bag.”
Xandra and her sycophants were brimming with jealousy. So, not only is her backer powerful, but they’re rich too.
Jessie didn’t ask Queenie to pick her up. Instead, she wanted to get a ride home. Before that, she wanted to look
around the place as the scenery of Averna University was exceptionally beautiful. Halfway through her stroll, her
phone rang. She wondered who it was, but when she saw the caller’s name, she froze. Julian. She quickly picked it
up. “Hello, Mr. Gilmore.”
“Ignore the news.” An attractive voice came from the other end of the line.
“No, I’m fine. But this is going to affect your reputation, though.” She was worried about him. She was fine with
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwhat the Internet thought about her, but she didn’t want Julian’s reputation to be affected.
“Your reputation is equally important,” he answered calmly.
Jessie blinked. She was reminded of the raunchier articles that were posted, and her cheeks burned. “I just hope
you aren’t affected.”
“Where are you?”
“Just got out of school. I wanna take a stroll around.”
“I’m nearby. I’ll pick you up, and we can talk about the script,” Julian said.
“Now? Is it okay?” Jessie asked.
“Yeah. Give me your location and wait for me.”
“Sure.” She sent him her location. While she was waiting, she scrolled through social media and covered her mouth
in shock as she came across something—the news of her and Julian was second on trending, and they were fast
catching up to the top spot. That was only a few minutes ago.
And the search term was Jessie the stuntwoman. The comments amounted to over ninety thousand, and all of
them were insulting her. Jessie stopped reading after the first dozen lines. She wasn’t surprised this would happen,
given how famous Julian was. Ten minutes later, Jessie was still engrossed in her phone when a black SUV appeared
before her.
Someone opened the door, and the man within called out to her. “Get in, Jessie.”
She was delighted, but she looked around before she surreptitiously got into the car and closed the door.
Julian was amused seeing her so nervous. “What are you scared about?”
“The news outlets. The reporters. Your fans.” She was terrified as she had been called all kinds of names on the
Internet, after all.
He knew how she felt and consoled her. “Don’t worry. My assistants are dealing with the matter.”
“Can they keep it down?” She blinked.
He kept quiet for a moment before he said, “Jessie, there’s a banquet tonight, and I’d like you to come with me.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe froze for a few moments. The scandal’s already making the rounds. If I go with him, they’re going to think
we’re dating. “I-I’ve never attended any banquets before.” She didn’t want to embarrass herself, not to mention
she had no work under her belt. I don’t have the qualifications to join.
Julian respected her choice and nodded. “Sure, next time, then. Now, let’s go to my brother’s company.”
“Why?”
“To sign you up.” He was planning on letting her debut soon.
Jessie took a deep breath. She nodded. “Sure.”
Stardom was the leader of the industry. It monopolized about seventy percent of the industry’s resources in the
nation, and it had a few thousand A-listers working for it. Profits were staggering every year. All female celebrities
saw working for Stardom as a form of pride, but Stardom’s test was brutal.
Jessie stood before the building, staring up at the dazzling window. The whole building was shining, just like its
achievements.
