n, those guests today are either business tycoons or celebrities in showbiz, and there’s only one reason they try to ap- proach you-they want a jewelry endorsement.”
Nevaeh fell silent, blushing slightly. Then she said, “I’m sorry. I didn’t know.”
“It’s fine. As long as you keep that in mind.” Anson nodded. Then he pulled Logan aside and whispered something in Logan’s ear.
Logan was surprised upon learning about Nevaeh’s relationship with Erasmo. He glanced at her one more time reluc- tantly before turning around and finding another target.
After a while, Nevaeh felt a bit tired and found a seat to rest.
Not far away from her sat a chubby man surrounded by several pretty celebrities.
Recalling Anson’s words, Nevaeh couldn’t help but click her tongue, thinking, “Sure enough, those with money stand out easily.
“Except for Erasmo.”
Suddenly, a crisp clink rang out.
A glass shattered on the floor, snapping Nevaeh out of it.
She looked over and saw a young female celebrity bowing at the man, her gown stained with wine.

“Mr. Wackerman, calm down. She’s new to showbiz and doesn’t understand how things work yet,” someone said, try- ing to mediate while pushing Leona Sterling, the young celebrity, toward Jacob Wackerman.

His voice was loud enough to draw a lot of people’s attention, and they whispered among themselves while pointing at Leona.
Nevaeh couldn’t stand it anymore and helped Leona straighten up. “Are you OK?”
Leona was totally embarrassed. Sensing Nevaeh’s kindness, she couldn’t help but burst into tears.
Nevaeh was at a loss. She took out some tissues, wiped Leona’s dress, and comforted Leona, “Hey, stop crying. Let me take you to change, OK?”
“Wait! Who the fuck are you? Who says you get to take her away? She’s mine!” Jacob was already drunk and scolded loudly regardless of the occasion.
“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me,” Leona said to Nevaeh, not wanting to drag Nevaeh down.
However, instead of letting go of Leona, Nevaeh said to Jacob seriously, “Who am I isn’t important. No matter what, you shouldn’t pick on her. Whatever her motives are, she has her pride, and you don’t get to trample on it.”
As she stepped forward, Jacob saw her face clearly.

Jacob had a thing for fiery beauty, and Nevaeh’s defiance further piqued his interest.
“I’m not gonna stay.” Nevaeh rolled her eyes. “I heard what you said. You wanna sleep with her, but she wouldn’t. I mean, look at yourself. Why would she?”

After saying this, she realized she didn’t have a pen or a piece of paper. Looking around, she saw Anson writing something not far away, so she waved at him, beckoning him to come over.
“How may I help, Ms. Tomlinson?”
“Can I have your paper and pen?” Nevach said straightforwardly.
The smile on Anson’s face froze. Did Nevaeh just say that?
“Ms. Tomlinson, are you sure? Mr. Fenton is watching.”
When saying this, Anson thought, “Ms. Tomlinson wants Logan’s number right in Mr. Fenton’s face? It seems she doesn’t take Mr. Fenton seriously at all!”
Loyal to Erasmo, he decisively put his paper and pen into his pocket.
“Yeah, so?” Nevaeh was dumbfounded. “I just want Logan’s autograph.”
After a moment of silence, Anson looked at Logan, who was smiling gently, and said helplessly, “Ms. Tomlinso
