The Untouchable Ex-Wife

When Renee got back from the kindergarten, she started making preparations for Jeffrey's debut. She took Jeffrey to Xavier's company, and after the receptionist took down their information, they went to the reception room to wait for Xavier.

It was the first time Jeffrey had been to the city, and he was curious about everything he saw. Though he was awed by a lot of it, it also made him feel insecure. "Renee, can I really do this?" Jeffrey stood in front of the large French window in the reception room, staring at his tanned skin, messy hair, and unsophisticated look dejectedly.

"Yeah, it'll be fine." Renee stood up and patted Jeffrey's shoulders, looking at him dotingly as if he were her son. "Your look is very rare in the current entertainment circle, and I'm sure it'll win you lots of fans." There were many handsome celebrities on the market, but they were all too delicate. They were nice to look at, but there was nothing unique or magnetic about them. Jeffrey, however, looked like a handsome prince from the countryside. He looked like a man with a story, and Renee was sure he would have a bright future in the entertainment industry with the right backing.

"But I don't know anything about all this. I'm not handsome enough and have no fashion sense at all...” Jeffrey stood there, wringing his hands anxiously.

"That's not a big deal. In fact, that is what's attractive about you!" Renee patiently tried to comfort Jeffrey. "You have to believe that you're unique. You have something ordinary stars don't have, and you'll go far as long as you stay this way."

Jeffrey seemed to relax after hearing that, and he nodded slowly. "Don't worry, Renee. I'll work hard and won't let you down."

They waited for a little longer. Xavier was having a meeting and would not come in a while.

At that moment, the door of the reception room opened, and Shirley walked in. She sized Jeffrey up and laughed. "Ms. Everheart, I heard that you wanted to introduce a novice to Xavier, so I came to check him out. Is this boy... the novice you talked about?"

Renee frowned at her and sneered, "What does it have to do with you?" Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.

"Don't get me wrong, I came here with good intentions." Shirley looked at Jeffrey and asked, "What's your name? What do you know? Have you ever performed before? What's your relationship with Ms. Everheart?"

"I... I..." Jeffrey's new-found confidence instantly crumbled under Shirley's interrogation.

"All of that is none of your business. Xavier is the one in charge of Universal Entertainment, and I'll only talk to him." Renee stood in front of Jeffrey as if she was protecting her child, and glared at Shirley rudely. "You should be thinking of how to improve your career before you start thinking about others."

"How dare you!" Shirley's cheeks grew red in humiliation, but she forced herself to smile at Renee. "Well, that's actually why I'm here. I want to see if we can form a win-win situation."

Renee narrowed her eyes at Shirley suspiciously. "What do you mean?”

"Although I've been partially suspended by Universal Entertainment, I'm still their best actress. If there's a chance, I would like to work with this boy. At the very least, I can help build his career."
