Chapter 666: Chapter 666: You Just Came to See Him?

After Quentin Sterling received a call from Clarissa Morgan, he agreed to her request.

It was the last thing he was doing for her.

The two appeared together, and their video featured some rather sweet interactions, instantly shattering those so-called "rumors" online.

The fans who were worried also breathed a sigh of relief, expressing: We’ll always support the most beautiful Clarissa.

Audrey Sutton, looking at these messages, was a bit confused, feeling dizzy from the gossip.

She realized that news on the internet is just for show; only the parties involved know what’s true and what’s not.

Wednesday, there was an exam at school.

Audrey Sutton, who hadn’t been back to school for a while, felt a bit out of place.

It wasn’t an important exam, and skipping it with a word to the teacher was fine.

But Shane Warner, the "good guardian," wouldn’t allow the "child" to miss the exam. It happened to be sunny and nice that day, so after dropping Audrey Sutton off at school, he contacted Stephen Sutton for him to look after her.

Audrey Sutton dressed warmly, hiding her baby bump, so no classmates cast strange looks at her.

After the morning exam, Audrey Sutton returned to the dormitory, where Seraphina Vaughn and Barry Barrett were also present, and Flora Lane came to school with their lunch at noon to meet them.

The few sisters hadn’t met in the dormitory for a while; one or the other was always missing.

They cleared a not-so-big square table and gathered around for lunch.

Barry Barrett had the computer on, playing the film festival’s live broadcast, and it was just showing Clarissa Morgan’s entrance.

Barry immediately frowned and said, "The live stream can’t fast forward, so annoying! I don’t want to see this woman!"

Seraphina glanced at it and said, "Is Quentin Sterling brainless? He actually showed up to clear up her divorce rumors."

Barry: "Who in their right mind would marry this woman?!"

Audrey Sutton murmured, "I find it strange, too. At first, I didn’t understand who leaked this news, and now it seems unresolved. Logically, after they clarified, wouldn’t the leaker bring out proof to hammer it down? But it just settled quietly."

Flora Lane: "Yeah, I thought there would be a reversal at first, too."

Barry looked at the computer screen and turned on her troll mode: "Watching her strutting around is disgusting! Like a streetwalker!"

Audrey Sutton: "What event is this?"

Barry: "It’s the film festival. I’m here to see Simon Sue. It’s just the entrance now; the awards start in the evening."

Seraphina teased: "You’re on such good terms with Simon Sue, still fangirling? Why not just chase him as a boyfriend?"

Flora Lane chimed in: "Yeah! Maybe it could happen?"

Barry rolled her eyes at them: "You don’t understand! He’s a star, alright? Just quietly admire him shining in the sky; why pluck him down?!"

Flora Lane: "The way you say it, he sounds gone, still hanging up in the sky."

Barry: "Bah! Don’t talk nonsense!"

Seraphina: "A fan who doesn’t want to woo their idol isn’t a good fan."

Barry: "A bunch of ordinary mortals."

Audrey Sutton stared at the screen for a while, puckering her lips: "Why are there so many fresh faces? I don’t recognize any."

Barry: "You just hang around with your Third Young Master all day, who do you think you’d recognize?!"

Audrey Sutton proudly said: "None are as handsome as my Third Young Master."

They chatted around this fan topic all noon, and after lunch, Audrey Sutton felt sleepy.

Her bed hadn’t been slept in for a long time, and the quilt was a bit damp, so she turned and sprawled on Barry’s bed, lazily pulling over the quilt, listening to their chatter, and soon fell asleep.

Flora Lane had to return to the company in the afternoon, so she left shortly after lunch.

Barry and Seraphina, both quite interested in the entertainment industry, continued to sit by the computer, watching the live broadcast with great interest.

On the other side, Quentin Sterling was also following the broadcast.

Sitting alone in the backstage lounge where the film festival was held, he expressionlessly watched the live broadcast on the room’s TV.

He tried hard to recall the good times between them, but as soon as he thought about those cherished memories being Clarissa Morgan’s performance with an agenda, he couldn’t allow himself to soften.

Besides, now he had no way back. If he didn’t do these things, Shane Warner would.

In comparison, he’d rather end it all himself, watching the star he had personally elevated utterly fall...

This film festival could be said to be a standard for assessing status and snobbery within the circle.

If someone wins an award at the film festival, their worth skyrockets.

Not only people in the circle but also the fans of each star are very attentive, with the live stream audience already exceeding a billion.

As night fell, the film festival entered the most anticipated award ceremony.

The nominated actors were all seated according to the pre-arranged seating at the scene.

Quentin Sterling, as the investor of this film festival, sat in the front row with other sponsors.

Clarissa Morgan and several other actors from the crew were seated in the middle positions.

Clarissa Morgan had no idea Quentin Sterling was there; he hadn’t gone out to greet her all day, and it wasn’t until Quentin took his seat just now that she realized he was there.

She was confident Quentin wouldn’t do anything against her interests, but for some reason, seeing him there suddenly made her uneasy.

When she sought his help to clarify things, he agreed readily, cooperating smoothly throughout, only that his private demeanor was icy and distant.

Nor did he pester her with talk of missing her or suggesting reconciliation.

After the video was shot, he left decisively as if he had completed his part in the play.

All these anomalies made Clarissa Morgan sense something happening...

Audrey Sutton wasn’t initially interested in the film festival, but seeing her sisters discussing the live stream in the group chat, she decided to join in, turning on the TV and sitting on the living room sofa to watch.

Strangely enough, Shane Warner, who usually didn’t like watching TV, also sat down after cleaning the kitchen.

Audrey Sutton didn’t think much of it, assuming he joined her to keep her company, so she didn’t ask, simply smiled, then leaned her head on his shoulder.

Coincidentally, the camera cut to Clarissa Morgan, whose exquisite makeup enhanced her already high beauty a few notches. Audrey Sutton mused: "Can’t blame Brother Sterling for losing his head, how many men can keep their wits in front of such a pretty woman?"

Her words weren’t dripping with sarcasm like before, just a mere observation.

Shane Warner replied, "Your husband is one."

Audrey Sutton realized what he meant after a brief pause, then smiled, rolling her eyes playfully at him, and she snuggled closer into his embrace, pulling his arm towards her.

The camera then switched to Simon Sue behind Clarissa Morgan, prompting Shane Warner to suddenly withdraw his arm from Audrey Sutton’s grip, snorting coldly, "You’re just watching for him?"
