Lydia waited until five o’clock, but no one asked her to take the video. When the people outside told her to go to the banquet venue, Lucia was overjoyed. “Great, great, there’s something to eat. I’m so hungry. Let’s go, let’s go.”

Lucia pulled Lydia onto the bus prepared by the cast and drove to the hotel.

At half-past five, Lydia followed the actors to the hotel’s dressing room and took out the prepared gown from her bag. This was prepared by Feiyan according to her figure. She wore a light blue strapless gown that fitted her body perfectly.

After changing, Seve arrived. Seve asked the makeup artist to put on some makeup for Lydia. After tidying up Lydia’s image, she went to the banquet hall with Lydia and sat down.

It was almost six o’clock when Irene Dunbar walked into the banquet hall. She was wearing a white high-end gown with a long tail. The surrounding photographers were snapping pictures of her.

Someone in front led her to the first table in the middle of the stage.

Before she sat down, the voices at the door suddenly became much louder. Everyone looked up. Under the light, the investor of ‘The Big Family’, Marcel, was wearing a formal suit. He was talking to someone while walking in.

Everyone’s attention was attracted by Marcel. Lucia was even more amazed. “This is too cool! My goodness, if you say he’s a celebrity, people will believe it too.”

Irene Dunbar immediately lifted her butt that had not touched the chair yet. She then swayed her way to Marcel and tried her best to squeeze out her most beautiful smile. “Hello, Mr. Marcel. We’ve met again.”

Marcel had his usual working expression. “Hello.”

After saying goodbye, Marcel was about to walk forward when Irene Dunbar immediately found a topic to talk about. “We’re very happy that you could come tonight. My dad heard that you were going to enter the entertainment industry and was extremely happy. He kept saying that he would look for an opportunity to work with you.”

Marcel asked, “Your father is…”

Irene Dunbar did not expect that Marcel would not recognize her at all. Her smile suddenly became a little stiff.

Brooks, the director next to her, kindly introduced, “This is Irene Dunbar. Her father is the vice president of Dunbar Group.”

“Oh, then we’ll have the opportunity to work together in the future.”

Irene Dunbar suddenly pulled Marcel’s sleeve, she put on an innocent and aggrieved look. “Mr. Marcel, you actually don’t remember me. I was sitting behind you at the Red Coral Charity Gala last time. You accidentally stepped on my gown at that time.”

Irene Dunbar openly grabbed Marcel’s sleeve and acted coquettishly in public, which made Lucia feel disgusted. “She’s not a child anymore, and yet still so pretentious.”

Marcel was also a little embarrassed. He pulled back his sleeve and looked directly at Brooks, changing the topic. “Go on. No matter what problems this movie have, I’ll solve them for you.”

Brooks looked at the time. “Let’s talk about it later. It’s almost six o’clock. Let’s go and have a seat.”

“Okay.” Marcel took a step to the side and walked to his seat from the right side of Irene Dunbar.

Irene Dunbar also turned to the right and swung her long tail forward. It looked like she was just trying to walk more conveniently. However, coincidentally, her tail just happened to fall at Marcel’s feet.

The next moment, Marcel’s foot stepped on Irene Dunbar’s gown.

Seeing this, Marcel hurriedly lifted his foot while Irene Dunbar laughed until her face was about to turn sour. “Aiya, Mr. Marcel, do you think we are fated? You stepped on my gown again.”

Marcel ignored her. He lowered his head and whispered to Brooks, “The photo of me stepping on her gown just now, no matter what, delete all of it. Don’t let it leak out.”

Brooks nodded hurriedly and replied, “Okay.” Everyone saw the way Irene Dunbar swung her gown. They were not blind. She was obviously trying to get close to Marcel.

Unfortunately, Marcel hated this kind of thing the most.

“Take care of your gown.” Marcel turned his head and warned Irene Dunbar with a cold expression.

Irene Dunbar didn’t expect her little trick to backfire. Her face was a little embarrassed, but she didn’t dare to act up. She could only endure it. Her eyes were burning with a great desire to conquer.

Marcel walked to his seat. When he was about to sit down, he saw Lydia from the corner of his eye.
