Eleanor did not pay attention to Gloria's thoughts and said "thank you" as she took the gift. Inside the gift box was a bottle of exquisite perfume and a necklace that looked quite expensive. Eleanor had to admit that Samuel had pretty good taste.
"It looks nice. I like it. Thank you," Eleanor said.
Gloria stared at Eleanor's blank face for a moment and thought, I don't want her thanks. What I want is her sadness, heartbreak, and madness.' She then gritted her teeth and thought, 'I don't believe she could be so calm. Samuel ga the whole crew for my sake. Didn't Eleanor feel even a bit upset when she found out?"
Just then, an angry voice rang out, "Which idiot called for a big truck and blocked my globally limited Ferrari?" Gregory turned the car key while walking and mumbling, "Did this crew turn into a flea market?"

Gregory's pink hair flew in the wind, and his delicate face, even when paired with a frustrated expression, was still pleasing to the eye. Moreover, he had a perfect figure. Truly, he was blessed by the heavens.
When Gregory arrived, several staff members stepped forward to greet him, but he arrogantly held his head high, not sparing them a single glance and taking his indifference to the extreme. Fortunately, he had many fans. If it were for that, such arrogant behavior would have been criticized mercilessly.
Gregory proudly looked around. He bypassed the director, the assistant director, and then the director's assistant. The moment he saw Eleanor, his eyes lit up instantly. He then happily rushed over to Eleanor, expressing his concern eagerly.

tired? Eleanor, do you "Eleanor, I'm here! Did you miss me? Do you want some water? Are you hungry? Are practice your lines?" Gregory was like a big dog. If he had a tail, it would probably be wagging wildly. wantto
Eleanor felt her head buzzing from the noise and desperately wanted to plug his mouth with something. "Mr. Harper, actually, I can hear you just fine if you lower your voice. After all, I'm not deaf."
Gregory pitifully tugged at his fingers, looking at her with sad eyes. "But I'm just so happy. By the way, my assistant knows a coffee shop that makes super delicious coffee. I had him buy two cups, and he'll bring one to you later." "I won't drink it. It's easy to gain weight."
"How could that be? That coffee is without sugar, ice, and milk. It won't make you gain weight."
Eleanor thought, 'Nothing added? What's the point of
rinking it then?'
Eleanor rolled her eyes as she looked at Gregory, who had a serious expression, and suddenly remembered when he had bought a bowl of sherbet at the school gate, thinking, 'It indeed seems like something the fool would do.' Gloria stood beside Eleanor and Gregory, feeling like an outsider. Meanwhile, the two of them seemed very familiar, like old friends who hadn't seen each other in years, leaving Gloria unable to interject.
Gloria jealously clenched her teeth and thought, 'Eleanor is just an ordinary person now. Why is Gregory still so polite to her? Shouldn't he be trying to cling to me like everyone else? I am the young lady of the Vanderbilt-family: Gloria took a deep breath to suppress the flames of jealousy, forced out a sweet smile, and handed a gift box to Gregory. "Gregory, this gift is for you."
Gregory looked at the gift box and raised an eyebrow. "For me? No free lunch. I don't want it."
Gloria's face flushed with frustration as she thought, 'Wasn't he just being so friendly with Eleanor? Why is he so cold to me? Did Eleanor say something bad about me? This bitch!"
Gloria quickly said, "Inside is a luxury item that everyone has and likes. You can take a look. I believe you will like it too. Gloria could not believe that there would be anyone in the world who did not like luxury items. 20:56 Fri, Nov 15

She thought, 'Once Gregory sees such an expensive gift, he will know I am from a wealthy family and will immediately try to curry favor with me like everyone else. And Eleanor will become a clown standing by! Gregory opened the gift box, looking skeptical, but remained unresponsive for a long time. Gloria thought he was stunned and cautiously asked, "Do you like it?"
Gloria had prepared for Gregory to accept it and then express his gratitude to her joyfully. But he frowned, looked at the box again, and sincerely asked, "Where are the luxury items?"
Gloria was taken aback. "Aren't the perfume and diamond necklace enough?"Belongs © to NôvelDrama.Org.
Gregory frowned again, appearing quite confused. "Do you have a misunderstanding about luxury items? Can such low-grade stuff really be called luxury? I thought at least it would be the keys to a yacht. How boring!"
He spoke very earnestly, without any hint of joking. His calm tone pierced Gloria's soft spot with every word. Gloria's pride took a hit, and her expression changed upon hearing this.

Gloria thought, 'Even though the perfume and necklace cannot be considered top-tier luxury items, they are still high-end goods that ordinary families wouldn't dare to buy. How could he disdain them? Alright, I understand now. Gregory is clearly on the same side as that bitch. She must have badmouthed me with him, which is why he targets me like this.'
Gloria continued, "Gregory, are you biased against me? I have always liked the TV dramas you've played and admire you greatly. It's an honor and a pleasure to work with you now, and I hope you won't listen to someone's slander and hold a bias against me. We could become friends. I believe we would get along well."
Eleanor, watching from the side, felt like applauding Gloria.
Eleanor thought, 'She truly is a character adorned with many glories. Her ability to charm people is truly top-notch. Not to mention Gregory, even I, who have seen her true colors, couldn't help but want to get closer to her after hearing those words. However, when she mentioned others' slanders, could she possibly be alluding to me?'

Gregory did not pick up on the implications in Gloria's words, but he knew that publicly rejecting her was indeed unfriendly, so he reluctantly nodded. "Alright, I'll accept it."
Gloria's eyes instantly lit up. In her view, this marked a good start for Gregory's willingness to be friends with her. She beamed with joy and prepared to get closer again. "I'm so glad you like it. It was personally selected for you by my brother Samuel." The air suddenly thickened.
