My Fair Stunner

Chapter 28 A Shattering Blow

Chapter 28 A Shattering Blow

As soon as she heard Colin's words, Mason's eyes got watery, and she tightened the grip on the back

of Colin's chair.

Mason and Colin were childhood sweethearts.

The two grew up in the same community before Colin returned to the Farrells.

Later, Colin returned to the Farrells, and when he grew up, he took over the position of president of

Farrell Media. To be closer to Colin, Mason signed with Farrell Media and became an artist.

Sensing the awkwardness, Faye felt as if sitting on pins and needles by sitting so close to Colin.

She originally wanted to get up to check out, but if she got up at this moment, it would inevitably

become even more awkward.

The first person to break the deadlock in the box was Mason's agent. He went up to persuade Mason

to save her face, saying that the people in the box next door were waiting for her.

"Um." Mason pursed the corners of her lips tightly, took a look at Colin, and was pulled out of the box

by her agent.

After Mason left, Faye was the first person to breathe a sigh of relief. She stood up, went out of the box

with an excuse, and went to the front desk to check out.

After Faye left, Mr. Blake looked at Colin with a smile, "What's going on? Have you made up your mind

to make a clean break with Mason?"

The cigarette at Colin's fingertips was lit, but he didn't smoke it anymore. He stubbed it out in the

ashtray on the table, "I want her to wake up to the reality."

Mr. Blake, "To be honest, I always thought you liked Mason."

Colin raised his eyebrows slightly and laughed, "Old man, I can't believe you are still interested in

young people's romantic relationships at such an old age."

Mr. Blake chuckled and shook his head, "How long do you think you can play dumb?"

After Mr. Blake finished speaking, he approached Colin, "Does Faye know you like her?"

Colin looked up and said seriously, "Who said I like her?"

Mr. Blake kept staring at Colin for a while, trying to tell if he was lying, but Colin hid it so well that Mr.

Blake didn't find anything unusual on his face.

As for Mason, she did not immediately return to the box where the cast was after leaving Colin's box.

Her agent pulled her to an empty box and locked the door.

"What's going on with you and Mr. Farrell? Didn't Mr. Farrell treat you well before?"

Mason's eyes got watery and she just kept silent while biting her lower lip.

Her agent didn't know the relationship between Colin and Faye. He thought Mason and Colin just had a

quarrel, and he comforted her with a soothing voice, "Men are sensitive about their pride, especially

men like Mr. Farrell. I told you not to make a fuss over a trifle, otherwise, men will get gradually tired."

When the agent finished speaking, he stretched out his hand, tugged at Mason's arm, and asked in a

low voice, "Is Mr. Farrell having an affair with another woman?"

Did Faye count?

It didn't seem so.

Faye had been by his side since Mason reunited with Colin.

Seeing that Mason remained silent, the agent thought the answer was no, and he heaved a long sigh

of relief, "As long as there are no other women, you don't have to worry. You two are childhood

sweethearts. Besides, Mr. Farrell has never allowed women around him to take advantage of their

affairs over the past few years, but you are the only exception!"

Mason felt quite upset originally, but her distress was gradually eased by her agent's comforting words.

Thinking of what Colin said to her in the box, Mason pursed her lips into a straight line, "Maybe he just

didn't want me to get hurt."

Colin and Faye were married after all.

If the marriage of Colin and Faye was exposed one day, she would be considered the homewrecker;

after all, she had expressed her love for him in such a high-profile manner.

If lucky, she might just be criticized at most. Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

If unlucky, she was very likely to be blacklisted in the entertainment industry.

The public would not accept her and there would be no way she could pursue her career anymore,

even if Colin tried to protect her.

This was how humans were. They were so blinded by their feelings for someone that they couldn't tell it

was just unrequited love even with so many clues.

And they tried their best to draw a farfetched conclusion from a tiny clue that their feelings were

reciprocated.

When Mason and her agent came out of the box, they met Faye who had returned from the checkout.

As they met each other's eyes, Faye showed a slight smile as a greeting.

Mason didn't give Faye a good look. She just gave Faye a sideways glance and then walked towards

the box.

Mason's agent stood aside and greeted Faye with a smile, "Ms. Nash, I'm sorry. Mason is just in a

temper; please don't take it personally."

Faye said, "Never mind."

The agent took a few steps to catch up with Mason, lowered his voice, and said to her, "You should

show some courtesy when you meet Faye. Although she just handles some PR crises, she has a lot of

connections. This time only your crisis PR got changed, but next time..."

Faye didn't hear what the agent said later. She still felt calm.

Mason had played against and spoke ill of Faye for a long time.

And it started even before Faye married Colin.

Maybe they were born enemies.

When Faye got back to the box, Colin and Mr. Blake were standing there, chatting.

Colin and Mr. Blake both looked over at Faye.

Colin asked, "You were paying the bill?"

Faye answered truthfully, "Yes."

Colin turned his head and smiled at Mr. Blake, "How about I send you back to the hotel?"

Mr. Blake stretched his body, "I am not going back now. I have an appointment with an old friend."

Colin said jokingly, "You have an old friend?"

Mr. Blake glared at him, "Who do you think I am? Why can't I have old friends?"

Colin lowered his head and chuckled. He took out a cigarette and handed it to Mr. Blake, "How grumpy

you are! No wonder you don't even have a woman by your side at such an old age."

Mr. Blake said, "I've just been celibate, unlike some playboy, having an affair with countless women."

After Mr. Blake finished speaking, he turned his head and asked Faye, "Faye, do you think I am right?

Would you marry a man living like a monk or a playboy like Colin?"

Faye smiled lightly, "Of course, a man like you. No woman wants to marry... a playboy."

Faye didn't say she didn't want to marry Colin, but the so-called 'Playboy' was referring to Colin.

Hearing this, Colin lightly raised his eyebrows, took a look at Faye, took back the cigarette he handed

to Mr. Blake, and put it between his lips, "You are teaming up against me?"

Mr. Blake smiled like an old fox, "Not at all. This is just the second time I have met with Faye. It's just

chitchat."

Mr. Blake and Colin were good friends despite a huge age gap. Mr. Blake had a good reputation in the

showbiz industry, but few people knew that he told a lot of unpleasant jokes.

Just like now, Mr. Blake stared at Faye for a while, then turned to look at Colin, "Faye is a good girl. I'll

set her up with someone later."

Then he added, "Anyway, I asked you just now, and you said you didn't like her."
