However, George Taylor was resolute, revealing undeniable determination in his tone: "This matter must be dealt with. That person clearly has no good intentions, and keeping him here will only make you feel more uncomfortable." "Don’t worry, I won’t let others think it’s your problem that led to his replacement. In this circle, with my influence and status, changing a photographer is hardly a difficult task. Moreover, his behavior also displeases me greatly." After saying these words, George turned his head and waved to his assistant, instructed a few words in a low voice, and the assistant quickly picked up the phone to contact the agent. Clara Bennett stood there, momentarily at a loss for what to say to express her complex emotions, and could only awkwardly thank him again: "Thank you, Taylor." She really couldn’t find a more appropriate way to express her current feelings. In her previous life, due to various misunderstandings, she held biases against George Taylor, but this experience made her realize he was indeed a gentleman, a truly moral person, not only courteous but also full of a sense of justice. In fact, George Taylor was indeed an impeccable gentleman, with almost no negative news or scandals in the entire entertainment industry. But to say he’d directly get into conflicts with others because of a partner’s issue, such things happening were still somewhat surprising. Regarding such things... Even George Taylor himself found it a bit amusing. Did he instinctively act like a hero in front of Clara, wanting her to have a favorable impression of him? What is the psychological motivation behind this? Could it be merely because she’s his little fan? Such reasoning seems too trivial. He glanced at Clara again, and suddenly a thought popped up: "If you really want to thank me, how about inviting me for lunch?" The words slipped out, even he found it somewhat incredible. After all, he usually wouldn’t make such requests in front of girls. Clara’s lips twitched slightly, clearly surprised and a bit at a loss by this suggestion. Having a meal, well, it’s actually not really necessary. She simply wanted to express gratitude, not intending to convert this thanks into the time cost of a meal. Just as she was about to politely refuse, a crew member hurried over and said to her, "Miss White, someone has delivered milk tea and snacks to the crew outside, asking for you to sign for them." Hearing this, Clara was taken aback. "Sign for me?" There was confusion and bewilderment in her tone. The crew member nodded affirmatively, saying: "Yes, they specifically asked for you to personally go and confirm." Understanding the person wasn’t joking, Clara nodded and responded, "Okay, I got it." Then she turned to George and said, "Taylor, please wait a moment, I’ll handle this sudden gift delivery and then come back to continue talking with you." After saying these words, Clara quickly walked in the direction indicated by the crew member. Only when she saw the familiar handwriting on the box, did she realize who the mastermind behind all this was. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but let out a light laugh. This person really knows how to take advantage of every opportunity to get noticed! With a slightly teasing smile, Clara waved her hand and signed her name at the bottom of the delivery slip as proof of receipt. "It’s from my family, please help distribute these treats to everyone. Everyone’s been working hard." She explained gently to those around her. The crew member nodded, also carefully inspected the logo on the bag’s packaging, and couldn’t help but exclaim: "Wow, these are all very popular brands on the market! Your family is really generous." You know this chain drink shop has recently been very popular online; even a simple tea drink can sell for 88 yuan, and a small dessert costs up to 120 yuan. For an average office worker, it’s definitely not cheap. But Clara, having absolutely no concept of this situation, didn’t pay it any mind. To maintain a good figure and healthy body, she almost never touches such high-sugar, high-fat foods. After briefly explaining everything, she found a quiet place to call William Foster. As soon as the call connected, she laughed and said: "White rose? You really dare to set it up like this!" William Foster countered: "Otherwise, what should I write? Do you really want me to write ’William Foster - heroine’s legitimate husband’ in big letters?" Clara deliberately teased him, saying: "What you should actually write is ’clingy William Foster’." William immediately pretended to be very aggrieved, defending himself: "I’m just concerned about you, how did I become that clingy person in your words? Do you find me too annoying, or did my sending these things cause you a lot of trouble?" Clara, being very clever, immediately sensed something wasn’t quite right, and inquired curiously: "Why does your tone sound a bit sour? Did something happen to make you upset again?" William first fell silent for a while, then slowly said: "No, nothing particularly important." However, Clara wasn’t willing to let it go just like that, and directly spoke her thoughts: "If it isn’t a small matter, then just honestly lay out everything." At this point, William finally sighed, his voice seeming to carry a hint of faint melancholy: "Actually, it’s because I recently heard that both the lead actors have already gone for makeup trials, and lots of photos were shared. I want to know if they have any plans for taking joint photos..." After hearing this, Clara felt a mix of emotions, saying: "So you’re bothered by this matter?" William paused, then continued: "Besides, Arthur Davis even posted on Weibo saying he’s experimenting with a general look, finding it particularly handsome..." He then threw a question at Clara: "Do you think this look is really handsome?" Clara couldn’t help but laugh out loud, replying: "Why are you suddenly interested in someone else’s image styling? And does whether he’s handsome or not even have anything to do with me? By right, you should ask more about what kind of clothes I wear in the drama, whether it also makes people find me beautiful and attractive!" William’s Adam’s apple subtly moved. He then squinted, lowered his voice, and asked, "Alright then, can you tell me now, what did you wear in the drama? How breathtaking and enchanting is it?" Clara pretended to be mysterious and quietly revealed: "This time, I chose a qipao, and wearing it is stunningly beautiful! Do you want to see it for yourself?"
