Chapter 1291
Angelo Fairfax, a famous singer, became desperate as he gritted his teeth and complained, "I can't take it anymore! I've never
met such a delicate star even though I debuted so many years ago. She joined a variety show in the countryside, but doesn't
even want to drink the water at this place. She demanded pure water from an expensive brand, and even asked me to cook
using that water. Where can I get so much of that? How preposterous!"
Angelo was in charge of cooking in the show, and he was good at it. The others enjoyed his cooking, and his skills helped him
gain a lot of fans. However, Shirley had started ordering him around after she joined the show. She claimed that the pasta was
undercooked and that there were insects in the food. However, what infuriated him the most was that she demanded he cook
with that expensive water, or else she wouldn't eat.
"I've met self-important people, but she's way too much. I'm no longer famous but I was quite a successful singer in the past. I've
never suffered this much before, honestly. If
Shirley isn't dismissed, I'll quit!" Angelo smacked the table angrily. He was even willing to breach his contract because of Shirley.
Lily Anderson, the host, quickly comforted him. "Ah, please bear with her. She's a star heavily promoted by Universal
Entertainment, and they purposely got her into our show. If we force her to leave, we'll make Universal Entertainment
our enemy. We'll be banned if we offend them given their status in the entertainment industry."
"But I heard a rumor that they've given up promoting her. If she doesn't do a good job this time, she may be suspended. We don't
have to be afraid of offending her, we just need to teach her a lesson!" Thomas Morris, a famous actor, had had enough too. He
had long wanted to teach that woman a lesson.
"No, that isn't the case." Lily shook her head. "The superiors of Universal Entertainment, including Mr. Stuart wanted to promote
another star, but Shirley befriended someone more powerful in the company, so she won't get suspended."
As a famous host, she had great connections, and had long heard that Shirley had gained a new supporter who Xavier was
afraid of. So, she would have to let Shirley have her way.
"Alas, I heard that too. Her new supporter seems to be..." Angelo approached them and was about to gossip when he heard
someone open the door of the house. Ace, the dog they had, kept barking.
"Is that a dog?" Xavier was about to go into the house, but he instantly backed away when he saw the large yellow dog in the
house. He bumped into Leia who was behind him, and quickly hid behind her helplessly. "Dog... There's a dog!"
Leia glanced at him in disgust and waved at the dog." Doggie, hello. Why are you so much fatter than on the screen? Come here
and let me pat you."
Strangely, the barking dog turned into a docile pet instantly.
It looked up at Leia and wagged its tail enthusiastically.
Leia touched its head. "Good boy. You're so cute, but some people are afraid of you. You don't bite either. I don't know why he's
so scared. What a coward!"
Xavier could not accept that as he hid behind her. "I mean... I'm not afraid of dogs. I just don't even know if the wild dogs here
are vaccinated or not. What if the dog bites me and I get rabies?"
"You shouldn't have come here if that was the case. Since you're here, you should open up and enjoy yourself. Don't act like a
coward and hide behind me," Leia rudely rebuked him.
At that time, both Lily and Angelo came out of the house. When they saw Xavier, they were initially shocked, but enthusiastically
went to him.
"Mr. Stuart, why are you here, in such a remote place? Our little house is honored to have you!" Lily said charmingly.
