Chapter 532: Saw But Did Not Bother

Ellie was not someone to be trifled with. She slowly rotated the wine glass in her hand and walked
slowly over to Saniyah. With a fling, Saniyah screamed and everyone’s attention shifted over to
Saniyah.

“Oh, I’m so sorry Saniyah. I was so careless to …” Ellie apologized.

There were so many members of the media which prevented Saniyah from retaliating. She could only
grit her teeth and faked a smile, “It’s alright, I know that you didn’t do it on PURPOSE!” The last word
was strongly emphasized.

Ellie walked over like a best pal and held onto Saniyah’s arm. She said pretentiously, “Saniyah, I’ll go
with you to the ladies to clean your dress…”

“No need. I’ll go by myself. You’re the lead actress. If you leave, who will the media interview?” Saniyah
struggled a smile and then flung off her hand. She then stomped off to the restroom, slammed, and
locked the door.

“Damn it! She’ll be the death of me!” Saniyah tried to use the water to clean the red wine from her
dress but the more she tried, the more the stain grew. It ruined the dress.

“Damn you, Ellie. You… To think that you are so vicious to do this to me! You are so arrogant only
because of Kayden. Let’s see what you’ll become if I were to snatch him away from you! Damn it! This
dress is the latest collection and cost nine thousand dollars!” Saniyah was so angry that she wanted to
kill Ellie.

She looked into the mirror and glared at herself, “Ellie, just you wait! This will not be the end of it!”

At the hall, Ellie began to dance with Nico and she did not realize that her life’s troubles were just
beginning.



…

Time passed quickly and half a month went by.

The movie premiere was successful and started with a bang. The premier night included famous
master of ceremonies, A-list celebrities, directors, and even secret guests to prime up the event.

Although Ellie knew that all these were to spruce up the event, she was eagerly anticipating the reveal
of the secret guest. She wondered if it would be someone dashing like Tom Cruise or some other hot
actor.

“Honey, are you ready? Let’s go.” Nico called out to her from the door.

“Stop hurrying me. I’m choosing what to wear.” Ellie yelled back.

The pair had established a relationship. Nico no longer rejected Ellie and was not faking being together
with her. However, Ellie no longer felt attracted to Nico. She now understood that it was useless for a
man to be handsome. He needed to be manly and attractive.

Nico was slightly effeminate and Ellie treated him as a good pal like a bestie.

It took Ellie half an hour to dress up and put on her makeup and Nico was almost out of patience.

“No matter how well dressed you are, I’m sure Saniyah had arrived well before you and attracted all the
media’s attention.”

…

“Oh, how misinformed you are. Don’t you know that the lead actress always arrives late? The media
know that the later the actors arrive, the more important their roles are.” Ellie shamelessly regarded
herself as an important actress.



“But the later you arrive, the more you might be ridiculed for raising your own profile. You should just be
humble and arrive earlier.” Nico replied.

Ellie stuck her tongue playfully and said, “Okay, I’ll prepare myself earlier the next time when we go out
but I have a purpose for taking my time to prepare myself.” That person would be here today. That was
why she had to dress herself up prettily.

Nico acknowledged and knew immediately what she meant. Now Nico actually felt guilty towards this
girl because each day he would report her every movement to Kayden. Kayden would know about her
daily affairs and conversations. Even her uncertain feelings towards Kayden were reported to him.
What he did not expect was Kayden’s indifference towards this information. Kayden reacted the same
way every time which made Nico suspect that Kayden no longer liked Ellie. However, if that was the
case, then why did he not end this plan?

Nico could not understand but it was not his role to worry. All he needed to do was to complete this task
and then take back the photographs and he would be free. As for Kayden’s promise of a huge reward,
he did not even take it seriously.

The two of them arrived at the hotel of the star-studded premiere. As soon as Ellie and Nico walked in,
they were swamped by the media and most of the questions were about their scandal.

Initially, they just smiled and did not answer but after a while, both emphasized that they were just
friends and nothing more…

The reporters said that they stayed at the same hotel and in two adjoining rooms. Some even pointed
out that there were pictures of them kissing in public.

Ellie began to blush, smiled radiantly, and said, “We are really just good friends and are not in a
relationship. That kiss was just a peck on the cheek to bid me farewell, nothing more.”



Nico also smiled and said, “Ellie and I met because of this film. She is a very good lady and we are
very good friends. Please don’t misunderstand us. I hope that everyone would focus on this movie.
This movie is great and almost perfect.”

As soon as Nico finished saying, he waved at some reporters and then led Ellie to walk along the red
carpet. This action caused the camera flashes to go off feverishly and tomorrow’s headlines were born.

Saniyah had walked the red carpet and stood still while looking coldly at Ellie’s entrance. She was the
original lead actress for this movie and had worked very hard to prepare for the role. She quickly
grasped the character’s personality and memorized the lines. For the sake of securing the role, she
even betrayed her body and allowed that fat director to hump her. She did not expect that all these
were ruined by Ellie and she attained all these without doing a single thing!

‘Ellie, just you wait. I’ll wipe that smile from your face in a few days.’ Saniyah scoffed and thought
sinisterly about her plan. That morning, the person whom she tasked told her that he had obtained
sufficient evidence from China that would doom her path to stardom! Now all she had to do was to wait
for the evidence and her perfect plan for revenge would begin.

‘Where was he? Kerr said that he would come? Would he lie to me?’ Ellie thought. She looked
everywhere and finally, she saw a handsome man dressed smartly in a black tuxedo standing in a
corner. It was Kayden.

Ellie’s heart skipped a beat. He was so dashing! She must have been blind in the past to have passed
up this premium man!

“Nico, I’m going to look for someone.” After she said, she surprised the people around her by walking
directly towards the corner.

Everywhere Ellie went, she attracted all the men’s attention.



What Ellie planned to do was to walk past in front of Kayden to attract his attention. When his eyes
followed her, then she would act as if she spotted him and then smile nonchalantly, “Oh, you’re here,
what a coincidence.” If she did this, then not only would she pretend that she did not care about his
presence, she could also present her most beautiful side to him.

Ellie braced up and held a small pearl handbag and walked elegantly in front of Kayden.

However, she was stunned by what she saw! Not only did he not notice her presence, but also his
eyeballs barely moved! That was impossible! She was so pretty today and he must have seen her!
Even his assistant remarked in awe, how could he not notice her?

Ellie gritted her teeth and pretended to speak to an attendant and then walked back slowly. This time
she was intentionally slow. She paused every two steps and tried to look at Kayden from the corner of
her eyes.

At this moment, their eyes locked for about three seconds. She was certain that he had seen her. What
she could not accept was that he did not even flinch, not even a smile. He just looked at her coldly like
he was bothered about her blocking his view.

Ellie felt as though she was doused with cold water and she did not even know how she went back to
her seat. Her mind was blank and her knees wobbled.

“Honey, what’s wrong? You were just fine a moment ago and why do you look so pale now?” Nico
asked out of concern when he noticed that something was wrong.

How could she not turn pale? Never in her wildest dreams would she expect him to ignore her. She
thought that he was angry and said those in anger. Tears started to well up and Ellie was speechless.
Apart from the shame of rejection, she was afraid about what she would do if he really wanted nothing
to do with her.



Now, everything that she had was given by Kayden. If he could not be bothered with her, then what
would happen to her movie… Though she could look for her brother-in-law and this could be settled
with a sentence, all the same, it was different because that was her sister’s husband…

She had considered Kayden as her man, that was why she felt that it was only normal for him to treat
her well… no one should be taken for granted. A person would treat another well if there was fondness.
Now, finally, Ellie realized what was most critical.

…

She blinked to force back the tears and then looked towards the corner. She saw Kayden looking
calmly at the screen and impervious to all around him.

Suddenly… Ellie’s eyes narrowed.

‘How did that woman get over there?’ Ellie thought.

At this moment, Saniyah noticed Ellie’s glare. They were just ten meters apart.

Saniyah’s eyes narrowed and started to grin. It was a grin of victory.

Time seemed to pause momentarily.

Her smile seemed to indicate that she had the upper hand…
