Top Actress Beware: Also Reborn Is Your CEO Husband!

Chapter 1132: Chapter 1132: The Jealous Jar Overturned

Jackson Xander was momentarily dazzled by the smile, "Um... is that okay?"

"Sure, I don’t have anything planned for tonight. Just wait for a moment, I’ll go remove my makeup."

"Okay!"

...

Aurelia Shaw finished removing her makeup and came out to find Jackson Xander waiting for her at the door. The two of them went to a nearby restaurant afterwards.

As he’d mentioned in the theater group, Jackson was genuinely there to discuss script issues with her. Seeing this eager, curious young man, Aurelia couldn’t help but smile.

Jackson blushed, "Am I too dumb? I definitely have a bit of a thick head, I can’t even understand such simple things."

"No." Aurelia chuckled, "I just remembered how I was when I first started in the industry, not knowing anything just like you. I used to study scripts until two or three in the morning every night, sometimes pulling all-nighters watching seniors’ TV dramas... learning how they acted when sad, how they expressed joy.

How to act in a way that draws the audience in, how to perform without imitating others, bringing out your own uniqueness... you really remind me of my past self."

All the glamor that others see comes from hard work and effort, without any exception.

Jackson’s face turned slightly red, "I will work hard! I definitely won’t make you regret signing me."

That statement almost sounded like a promise to the boss that he was still valuable, practically imploring her to milk every potential out of him.

Halfway through the meal, Aurelia’s phone buzzed.

She opened it to find a message from Caspian Parker saying he’d revised her song and sent it to a reputable music authority.

Her brother was indeed reliable.

Another buzz followed, it was Mason Nightshade initiating a video call.

Aurelia rejected the call, but he called again.

She refused once more.

He tenaciously called once more. It seemed as if he would keep calling until she picked up, Aurelia sighed helplessly, then put on her headphones and answered.

Mason Nightshade looked around at the background behind her, narrowing his long eyes, "You’re not home?"

"It’s a coworker treating me to dinner," Aurelia replied.

"Man or woman?"

Aurelia: "..."

"Just a colleague, and one of the artists signed under my company..." Aurelia explained.

Hearing this, Mason already got the answer, his eyes narrowing more deeply, "Send me the address."

"Don’t be ridiculous..." If he actually showed up, who knows what kind of jealous scene he’d make.

But unexpectedly, he simply stated, "I’ll be there shortly."

With that, he ended the video call.

Huh? Aurelia looked at her now black screen phone, furrowing her brow, this wolf was becoming bolder, even daring to hang up on her.

He even said he’d be there soon.

He didn’t even know where she was having dinner—Aurelia decided to ignore Mason Nightshade.

...

Venus Hotel.

Mason Nightshade put on his jacket, picked up the phone from the table, and dialed a number as the elevator door opened with a "ding." The call connected at just the right moment.

In a deep voice, Mason instructed, "Track her current location."

...

As Aurelia came out of the restroom, a group of women dressed as elegant socialites blocked her path. Squinting, she surveyed the group, recognizing none of their faces.

As far as she remembered, she didn’t know these people.

So why were they confronting her here? Or could it just be a coincidence, a group of people coming to use the restroom?

Aurelia ignored them and continued walking forward.

The group didn’t seem intent on stopping her. As they walked in, however, one woman’s skirt slipped under Aurelia’s foot—
