Chapter 431 : VPN 77 55 vouchers Callum's assistant was on edge, his palm sweaty as he clutched the note. 'The most gorgeous girl at the main table,' he muttered to himself, repeating Callum's words. Just as he approached Stella, Sebastian and Luca both turned their heads at the same time, giving him a frosty stare. Callum's assistant freaked out. "Is this for me?" While he was still shaking with nerves, a cold, steady voice spoke up beside him. He looked up, nearly bursting into tears from relief. Thank goodness, he finally found her.

"Stella, Callum-" Before he could finish, Stella had already reached out and taken the note from his hand. She opened it and read it. [Stella, can you do calligraphy?] It was obvious Callum had written it in a hurry. It looked like a mess of scribbles. "Moon, what's going on?" Karson leaned over curiously. Stella calmly folded the note, her expression giving nothing away. She glanced over at Lachlan. "Excuse me for a moment." With that, she stood up and headed out with Callum's assistant. Karson and Camden exchanged glances, then Karson turned to Sebastian. "Mr.

Gray, what's going on?" Sebastian lowered his gaze and slid another cup of coffee toward him. "I'm not thirsty!" Karson blurted out. He was dying of curiosity. "Dad." Camden tugged at Karson's sleeve, looking awkward. "Mr. Gray's tired of your chatter. He wants you to zip it." Karson was speechless. Meanwhile, the staff member was trying to persuade Lachlan. "Director, stop hesitating. There's an interactive VCR segment coming up at the top of the hour. We can't skip it. If you don't agree now, we'll be out of time." Lachlan's heart was pounding.

He glanced at the clock, gritted his teeth, and stomped his foot. "Fine, go talk to 11:20 Thu, Feb 12 Chapter 431 Mrs. Reed right now!" "I'm on it!" The staff member immediately took off his headset, grinning from ear to ear. 'Yay! 150 thousand dollars hit my account!' he thought. Lachlan watched him go, annoyance written all over his face as he put his headset back on. His brow was furrowed. VPN 77 55 vouchers Truth was, he ran several of Jaffina Channel's biggest shows.

The Reed family had approached him more than once, all trying to set the stage for Matthias to rise to power and make a splash in the future. This was Jaffina Channel. Not a chance he'd let the Reed family use it for their own agenda. But now, he didn't know what to do. Lachlan was distracted, his thoughts elsewhere. He looked seriously troubled. ***** In the VIP section, Tallulah kept her gentle smile, but when she spoke, her words were sharp and calculating. "Did you remember what I told you?" The staff nodded. "Yeah, I'll say you're in a tough spot, and you're not in the showbiz business.

But if the director really gets stuck, you wouldn't just sit back and do nothing. It's just that..." As he spoke, Tallulah flashed a troubled look right on cue. She was going all in on the act. After a few more seconds, the staff returned to Lachlan and relayed the message. 'Damn it!' Lachlan cursed inwardly, grinding his teeth in anger, The staff gestured at his watch, reminding Lachlan that time was running out. Lachlan gritted his teeth. "Go tell her. As long as she agrees, he'd agree to..." However, the words stuck in his throat.

"Director, we really don't have time." The staff kept fanning the flames. On stage, the music was pumping, and dancers and singers lit up the place, Everyone was having a blast. Down in the audience, Lachlan was more stressed than ever. Two seconds later, Lachlan let out a heavy sigh, and the staff's eyes lit up. But just as Lachlan was about to say he suddenly jerked upright, slapped his left earpiece, and his eyes went wide. yes, The staff was confused. 11:20 Thu, Feb 12 Chapter 431 VPN 77 EL 55 vouchers He instinctively reached for his earpiece, only to find it missing.

Only then did he remember that he'd taken it off earlier when he went to find Tallulah. "Great! Dispatch, tell them to pick up the pace!" Lachlan was so happy that he was nearly jumping for joy. "No need to wait, I'm making the call!" The staff suddenly had a bad feeling about this. Meanwhile, Tallulah smoothed out her dress, a smirk tugging at her lips. Unless Lachlan wanted to risk getting written up by his supervisor, he had no choice but to agree. Just as Tallulah was feeling all smug and was just about to get up, the previous act wrapped up, and the lights went out with a sharp snap.

Tallulah's smile froze on her lips in the darkness. 'What's happening?' she wondered. The sound of running water rippled through the Jaffina Channel studio, followed by the soft swish of leaves brushing in the breeze. The audience, still reeling from the lively song and dance, looked up in a daze at the stage. As a single beam of light cut through the darkness, everyone instinctively held their breath. On stage stood a surprisingly beautiful girl. She was dressed in a traditional costume, wide sleeves fluttering with every movement.

Her long hair was casually pinned up with a stick, and wrapped around it was a shockingly realistic little black snake. Everyone couldn't take their eyes off Stella. Sebastian's face was shrouded in darkness and his deep eyes locked onto Stella. His heart was pounding like crazy. Sebastian was mesmerized. Good thing Big Ben wasn't here. On stage, for the first time ever, Blackie found himself staring at a sea of faces. So many people that it was totally dizzy. People were packed in everywhere. A sea of faces packed shoulder to shoulder.

Blackie's beady little eyes started swirling in dizzy circles. They were confused. Stella lifted her gaze lazily, her eyes twinkling. With a snap, the stage lights flooded the room, and there was Callum, sword in hand, already in place with the other dancers. Tallulah thought, 'What the hell?' 11:20 Thu, Feb 12 Chapter 431 VPN EZ 55 vouchers She instinctively whipped her head toward Lachlan, shock written all over her face. The staff was just as lost, having no idea what was happening. Only Lachlan, in a rare pause between the chaos, shot Tallulah a cold, deadpan look.

Everyone here played the game. No one was buying anyone's act. Tallulah held her breath. She forced herself to keep her cool, not letting a hint of guilt show. Inside, she sneered, 'Who cares if that girl's got a pretty face? The highlight is the calligraphy master showing off with both hands. That girl's just eye candy, nothing more!' But in the next moment, like a slap in Tallulah's face, Stella calmly reached out with both hands, grabbed two brushes from the table, and began writing with both hands at once, right in front of everyone. "Camera, zoom in! Quick!

Give her a five-second close-up!" Lachlan shouted into his headset. Instantly, everyone watching TV got a close-up of Stella's gorgeous face. They also saw calligraphy on the table, each stroke bursting with her own spirit and style. Even a total newbie could see how incredible her calligraphy was. Those characters practically leapt off the page. Right then, everyone's eyes were locked on Stella, the cool, distant girl on stage. That effortless aloofness was like she'd drawn a line between herself and the world. No one dared to ruin the magic of that perfect moment.

***** Meanwhile, a glass dropped to the floor with a thud at the Clinton villa. Aveline was frozen, staring at the girl on TV. She didn't even notice when her glass of water slipped from her hand and hit the floor. Her mind spun, her mouth opening and closing over and over as she tried to process what she was seeing. Her tears fell in huge drops, rolling down her cheeks one after another. "Ryker! Ryker! Hurry up, get over here!" Aveline shouted.
