Chapter 75 Meeting Sophia Again

Chapter 75 Meeting Sophia Again

Sophia's dream of becoming a star fizzled out almost as soon as it sparked.

She looked down with a bitter smile, her eyes drifting to her stomach.

Opening Jade Haven now was already a lucky break in the midst of all this chaos. If she tried anything more under the Mitchell family's watch, it would backfire on her. This path would have to wait.

"Ronnie! Ronnie!"

"Ronnie's here!"

The fans' screams drowned out everything else.

Ronnie strutted onto the stage like a peacock, completely transformed. The spotlight hit him, and he stood tall and proud, oozing confidence.

If it weren't for the jade bracelet on his wrist, Sophia might have thought he was someone else.

All eyes were glued to Ronnie as he casually lifted his wrist, showing off the bracelet.

"That bracelet's design is so unique. Is it a new endorsement Ronnie picked up?"

"I don't think so. I've never heard of Ronnie endorsing jade jewelry. Maybe it's his personal accessory?"

"It looks amazing. After the red carpet, I'm definitely going to find out the brand of that bracelet. If it's affordable, we should get one too!"

Sophia, hidden among the staff, kept her eyes on Ronnie. To highlight the bracelet, she had added some thoughtful touches to make it shine even more under the spotlight, enhancing its features.

This way, more people would notice the product, and with the exposure, sales would likely follow.

Ronnie's red carpet appearance went smoothly. As he left, Sophia intended to follow him, but the host's voice rang out.

"Next up is the final red carpet arrival, our Best Actress, Gia!"

"Let's give her a warm welcome!"

Before the host finished speaking, thunderous applause erupted outside.

In an instant, everyone's gaze turned to the red carpet, where a black Maybach approached. The roaring horn drew countless screams, and signs with Gia's name were held high.

"Gia! Gia!"

The cheers were even louder than Ronnie's fans.

Gia... That name sounded familiar. Could it be her?

Sophia turned to look at the Maybach's door. As it opened, a woman in a fiery red strapless gown stepped out, exuding an aura of confidence. Her high heels clicked on the ground, and her presence was commanding, every movement radiating elegance.

Her composed demeanor was something only true stars could emulate.

"Gia truly lives up to her name. Despite being the Mitchell family's daughter, she chose to start from scratch, taking on small roles and working her way up. Not many actors can remain grounded like that."

Daphne's eyes were filled with admiration as she looked at Gia.

Seeing that familiar face, Sophia's memories flashed back to the banquet. A stranger had stepped forward to speak on her behalf, and that stranger was from the Mitchell family. It was truly remarkable.

"Let's go. People of her caliber are beyond our reach, especially since she's from the Mitchell family. Even if she doesn't rely on their name, her family's influence alone makes her untouchable."

Daphne's words made sense. In Emerald City, the Mitchell family name commanded respect.

Sophia turned away and followed Daphne inside.

The rest of the event was the awards ceremony. Ronnie snagged Best Newcomer, and Gia once again took home the Best Actress award.

Her consistent excellence sparked both envy and admiration. The big screen showcased their various roles.

"I didn't expect Ms. Mitchell to be so talented. I've seen some clips of her performances, and they are indeed captivating."

Even Isla, who rarely watched TV shows, praised Gia, highlighting her prowess.

"Once the ceremony is over, let's retrieve the bracelet and get out of here."

Sophia glanced at her silent phone, feeling uneasy.

Why was Philip so quiet today? Could something have happened to him?

Considering past events, it was possible...

Sophia shuddered, recalling the bloodied image of Philip flashing before her eyes.

She frowned, wondering what else was hidden behind the scenes.

As the ceremony wrapped up, all the stars headed to their trailers.

Daphne, smiling, patted Sophia's shoulder and handed her the jewelry box.

"Thanks to your jade jewelry, it really stood out. We'll definitely choose your brand again if we need something in the future. Don't forget to give us a discount!"

"Ms. Morgan, rest assured. We will ensure the quality and reputation of our brand."

As Sophia finished speaking, Ronnie stood beside her, his eyes fixed on the box in her hand.

"Is there something you need?"

"How much for the bracelet? I'd like to buy it. Wearing it for the first time felt different, and I feel a connection with it. Could you sell it to me?"

Sophia was surprised. Initially, it was rushed for the event, but she smiled and handed the box to him.

"No need to be so formal. Besides, we were rude in the dressing room. Consider this bracelet a gift from Jade Haven. It's one of a kind."

"One of a kind? With tonight's live broadcast, countless people saw this piece. You won't make another?"

Ronnie asked in surprise, receiving confirmation from Sophia.

"That's right. We only intended to make this one. I'm glad you like it. If you need anything else, feel free to come to us."

"Well, the dressing room incident was our fault. If you need someone to try on your new products, you can come to me. I'll add you on WhatsApp."

He eagerly took out his phone, his eyes shining at Sophia like a hopeful puppy.

Ronnie really wore his emotions on his sleeve, not hiding anything at all.

Doesn't he worry about being targeted by his rivals?

Adding him on WhatsApp shouldn't be a problem, as it's for work.

Philip shouldn't have any objections.

Sophia built mental barriers for herself and took out her phone to add Ronnie on WhatsApp.

Daphne seized the opportunity.

"Since you added him, you might as well add me too. It'll be easier to stay in touch, right?"

Their enthusiasm overwhelmed Sophia. These two were really alike…

A commotion nearby indicated Gia's arrival, surrounded by staff.

With no fans around, Gia's eyes quickly found Sophia's figure.
