Chapter 2209: Unforgettable Love, Part 4
The news director had also seen today’s headlines. He wasn’t surprised, as Mr. Marsh had informed him that Summer was one of their own. Spencer had indeed gone to great lengths to pursue his girlfriend. His brother financed the drama, his younger brother played the lead male role, and after several twists and turns, Summer became the lead female. They focused on filming the kissing scenes to quickly heat up their relationship. Everything seemed to be under certain people’s control.
At this moment, Summer’s phone, set to silent mode, was in Elisa’s backpack. She had already finished her makeup and was about to film a kissing scene in the rain. Mrs. Campell’s call came through but went unnoticed by Elisa, resulting in a missed call. Mrs. Campell called three times in a row, all unanswered.
In an independent office of the Marsh Group’s comic department with excellent lighting, Agnes’s desk was tidy with some manuscripts stacked on one side. Her phone rang; she put down her mouse and saw it was her mother calling.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
Puzzled, she quickly answered, “Hello, Mom.” Her mother usually didn’t call unless something was up.
“Agnes, what’s going on with your sister?” her mother asked urgently on the other end of the line. “Why is she with Spencer?”
“What?” Agnes had been busy with work all morning and hadn’t seen the news.
“It’s trending! They were photographed! Spencer admitted it in front of the media!” Mrs. Campell sounded panicked. “Don’t hide it from me! When did they start? Has she cleared things up with Rupert? Have they broken up?”
“Mom, mom, please calm down!” Agnes quickly opened the news page on her computer while trying to soothe her mother’s emotions. “We’ll come back tonight and talk to you in person. Please don’t get agitated! I’m at work right now.”
“But I can’t reach her phone.”
“She’s filming today and is very busy,” Agnes explained. “Don’t worry; I’ll find her and bring her back. Trust me!”
Mrs. Campell said, “Agnes, I don’t approve of her being with Spencer. Try to persuade her; they’re not compatible at all. His ex-girlfriends are all over the trending topics online. What kind of relationship is this? It won’t lead to marriage; it’s just a waste of time and emotions.”
“Mom, we’ll come back tonight and discuss it then. You can look at the online opinions but don’t believe everything you read; form your own judgment. It’s not as serious as it seems.” Agnes smiled reassuringly. “Don’t you trust your sister’s judgment?”
“What?” Mrs. Campell was sharp. “So you knew about this all along?”
“I… didn’t know for long,” Agnes stammered, unsure what to say next, so she made an excuse, “Oh dear, I’m busy right now at work. I’ll bring my sister home after work, and we can talk about everything in person then. I have to go now, bye!”
With that, she hung up the phone.
She saw the news online and read Spencer’s official announcement. Agnes’s eyes widened but then calmed down as she sensed something was off-was there an emergency?
At the flower shop.
Mrs. Campell held her phone in silence for a long time; she knew about Rupert’s scandals-he wasn’t a man worth entrusting for life.
But there was still an engagement to consider; they should at least break off the engagement first and return any betrothal gifts to avoid gossip.
And as for Spencer… Mrs. Campell didn’t approve of him at all!
His news was always about changing girlfriends like clothes.
It’s inevitable to spread rumors when filming together, but such an official announcement meant her daughter was really with him-what would people think of her daughter?
How could a mother not be anxious?
“Alright then, wait until our daughter comes back and ask her directly; thinking about it won’t solve anything,” Mr. Campell patted his wife’s shoulder and sat down amid a pile of flowers. “Come on now, let’s continue packing these flowers; we need to deliver them soon.”
