Chapter 957: Chapter 957: Indeed Very Good_1
"Jimmy, it’s really my own fault for having a bad temper, although Sophie Taylor indeed said some pretty awful things, but I should have held it in, instead of getting physical, it’s just that I didn’t expect her to take things this far..."
Tiffany Lynch lifted her head, seemingly inadvertently revealing the red marks on her neck, aiming to evoke the man’s sympathy.
She spoke in fits and starts, occasionally pausing to wipe the tears from her face, perfectly portraying the image of a fragile and scared woman.
After her words fell silent, having waited a long time without a response from Jimmy Simmons, Tiffany Lynch started to become a bit restless.
It wasn’t that she was worried Jimmy wouldn’t believe her, but she was concerned about his attitude.
Had it been George River, she was confident that he would have immediately stood up for her and even made Sophie Taylor pay the price.
But with Jimmy Simmons...
She could never fully grasp this man.
Sometimes he was very good to her, complying with her every wish, and often times he would provide money and resources without her even asking. But occasionally, he would also be very cold to her.
It wasn’t just a superficial coldness, but rather... a feeling.
He would agree to everything and look at you with tender eyes, yet still, you got the feeling he wasn’t truly invested.
Tiffany Lynch attributed all this to the problem that Jimmy Simmons didn’t love her enough.
Just as Tiffany Lynch’s patience was nearing its breaking point, Jimmy Simmons finally spoke up, "You said that Sophie Taylor said a lot of bad things, what exactly did she say?"
Tiffany Lynch was taken aback, clearly not expecting Jimmy to focus on this, but she quickly responded, "Jimmy, you know, my landing this role was already quite controversial, almost everyday someone would deliberately bring up this matter in front of me, they always say that my acting isn’t as good as Hannah’s, but it’s not like I want it this way. Hannah has more resources and opportunities than I do. Unlike me, after so many years I finally got a chance to be the leading lady, I really want to do well, it’s just that..."
"Jimmy, do you think I’m really not as good as Hannah?" Her eyes brimming with tears, her voice choked up, she seemed like a fragile white flower trembling in the storm, at any moment ready to be snapped in half.
Her affectionate eyes looked up at the man in front of her, lowering her stance.
Jimmy Simmons remained unmoved, "Hannah is indeed very good."
Tiffany Lynch’s breath hitched, her smile stiffening on her lips, her complexion turning pale.
But it was just a moment, then she heard the man in front of her add with a smile, "But you are very good too, Tiffany. Don’t belittle yourself. I will take care of this matter for you."
Like riding a roller coaster, her emotions surged and plummeted, but in the end, the outcome was good.
Tiffany Lynch nearly couldn’t help but laugh out loud, but still she forcibly maintained her expression and lowered her head, the picture of vulnerability, "Jimmy, thank you."
Jimmy Simmons just nodded, then wheeled himself behind his desk and casually picked up a document, "Tiffany, you don’t need to thank me, but I also hope you understand that while I can help you this time, next time it might not be the case."
Tiffany Lynch was startled, looking up at the man behind the desk.
Jimmy Simmons seemed to sense something and lifted his head, a clear curve forming on his lips, "Tiffany, naturally I want to give you what I have, but in the end, the Simmons family’s business is not in the entertainment industry."
After hearing these words, Tiffany Lynch’s heart finally settled completely, especially Jimmy’s last statement...
