The Untouchable Ex-Wife

Coincidentally, the startup ceremony of The Heart of the Grassland happened to be the same day as the graduation photograph session of the kindergarten, so Renee asked Leia to take Jeffrey to the startup ceremony.

Although Leia was reluctant, she agreed so Renee could go with her kids without worrying. She drove her convertible out of Everheart Manor to go to Santa Fe, the place Universal Entertainment had booked.

During the car ride, Jeffrey was cautious and awkward as he didn't know Leia that well yet. "Leia, thank you for doing this. I... can actually just take a cab there." Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

"No, you can't do that." Leia had her sunglasses on, and held the steering wheel with one hand, enjoying the breeze as she drove. "Ren is worried about you, and she'll kill me if you get lost or someone bullies you during the startup ceremony, so it's best I bring you there. Stop overthinking-think of me as your agent, and just tell me if you need anything. I'll protect you as well as Ren since she's working so hard to make you famous." Although Leia couldn't understand Renee's reasoning, she would support her since it was something Renee wanted to do.

The car soon arrived at the entrance of Santa Fe. There were a lot of paparazzi and celebrities there because of how grand the startup ceremony was, and many stars were also attending to give their support. It was so crowded that the organizer had to ask everyone to show their working permits or invitation cards if they wanted to enter.

Leia and Jeffrey finally reached the entrance, where the staff asked for their working permits and invitation cards. "Invitation cards?" Leia shook her head. "No one told me that we need such a thing. This guy is the hero of this movie, so just let US in."

The staff was a rough man who didn't know much about the entertainment circle, and he glanced at Jeffrey in disdain. "Are you kidding me? The Heart of the Grassland is a big production, and the cast are all A-listers. Why would they get a country bumpkin to be the hero? Do you think we're stupid?"

Leia became furious. "Look at him! Why can't this guy be the hero? Isn't he handsome? Doesn't he have a great temperament? How can you humiliate him like this just because he's a novice?" While talking, Leia tried to search for the movie posters online, but Universal Entertainment had kept Jeffrey's casting a secret to increase people's interest in the film. Only Jeffrey's silhouette was on the poster, which made it impossible to identify him. "Look-isn't he this guy here?" Leia clicked on the poster, trying her best to zoom in on Jeffrey's face.

"It doesn't look like it!" The staff shot Jeffrey a contemptuous look and scoffed, "If this guy can be the lead, I'd be nominated for Best Actor.

Where's security? Hurry up and get these crazy people out of here!"

A few security guards walked over and tried to pull Leia and Jeffrey away. The paparazzi immediately came over when they saw the commotion, and kept snapping pictures of the scene.
