Chapter 1779

It was the film festival day, and all of the stars had gathered.

Although | was unable to be there in person, | was quite comfortable watching the live broadcast at home.

It was stated that the live broadcast would start at about eight o'clock, so | prepared sdesserts and fruits to

eat while | watched it later.

At the stime, in order to have someone to share this moment with, | called Jerover.

When he saw the food on the table, there was obvious disdain on his face. "This is it?

| thought I'd be having a feast."

"The feast will happen a little later. Xander

must've gone to the film festival as well since he's the big shot behind the scenes. Since you're alone, rather

than being bored at home, let's watch it together. Plus, | told Xander to cright over once he's done to

celebrate." The smile on my face never faded.

That was right. | was incredibly excited about this and also looking forward to it.

Jerlooked at me, shook his head helplessly, and sat down. "Are you really sure that it'll be a success? What

"No, no! There are no what ifs."

| believed in Theo and in Grant Corporation's strength. This film festival would definitely be a success.

In a flash, it was eight o'clock. I quickly turned the TV on and switched over to the movie channel.

The big screen showed the grand occasion of the film festival. There were red carpets and fresh flowers.

Everything looked so beautiful.

If one were at the scene, it would surely be more visually impactful.

After just a few seconds of feeling regretful, | continued to be engrossed by the TV. At the moment, various stars

were walking on the red carpet while surrounded by reporters and media on both sides. There were the sounds

of cameras clicking and greetings all around.

Immediately after the camera turned indoors, one could see that the layout of the scene was clean and tidy with

red wine and small meals readily available.

As he was eating, Jerdid not forget to harp on and on. "It's no use for us to watch this live broadcast. All

they're talking about are the stars. Your darling Theo will probably be on screen for a few seconds. Plus, their

system is merely behind the scenes. We can't even see whether or not it's a

success."

"Even if it's merely a few seconds, | want to see him." | shot a glare at him to express my dissatisfaction.

The camera was switched to the outdoors again.

"Alright. The next person walking on the red carpet is the big man behind our artificial intelligence system this

time, President Theo Grant. The beautiful woman beside him is the project leader, Nicky Doyle. She was a top

student during her studies abroad. The pair are truly talented and gorgeous."

Nicky wore a yellow off-the-shoulder long dress with a fishtail hem, showing her graceful figure. Meanwhile, Theo

was wearing his usual black suit, looking tall with a straight posture. She had hooked her arm around him when

they were walking on the red carpet together, which was really conspicuous.

| felt somewhat sour inwardly, and Jerprobably saw through me. He said with a smirk, "Why? Are your eyes

green with envy? Do you feel that sour feeling in your heart? Look at what a great pair they make when they're

standing next to each other."

Although it was true, | was stubborn about it. "Nicky's the project leader. Of course, she has to go. They're

representatives of Grant Corporation, so it's normal to walk the red carpet together." "Is that so?" Jerome's eyes

stared atwith a smirk at the corner of his mouth.

| straightened myself up. "Of course."

Theo and Nicky had walked past the red carpet, and the next person to cforth was Xander. "Look, it's your

Xander."

"How handsome."

Jerome's face was full of pride as if he was praising himself.

| merely shook my head helplessly. The next broadcast was about the process of going to the film festival, and |

found it to be somewhat

boring Jerwas right. The

system was behind the scenesel

we had no way of knowing whether it was successful or not. Hence, we could only wait for Theo to cback.

Jerand | nearly fell asleep as we watched the broadcast. It was not only when the host's voice suddenly

beclouder on the TV that we finally regained our senses. "The film festival has ended perfectly tonight, and

we'd like to thank..."

| rubbed my eyes and tried to wake myself up more. "It's ending, | have to hurry up and get ready."

After standing up, | walked toward the kitchen. I quickly halted when | heard the voice of the host on the TV...
