Chapter 171

Linda, however, remained completely unfazed.

A faint smile lingered on her lips as she elegantly lifted her glass, her posture relaxed, as if the conversation was of no concern to her. She didn't even glance at Flora, nor did she comment on Cole's reaction.

That made Flora even more uneasy.

She wanted answers. She needed to know what was going on. But she also knew that pressing the matter now, in front of everyone, would only make things worse.

The meal continued, but the atmosphere had shifted.

Cole's disinterest in Flora was evident in the way he spoke to her....short, indifferent, and dismissive.

When she tried to engage him in conversation, he barely looked at her.

Flora: "Cole, did you see the latest Fashion campaign? I heard there is new talent hiring going on every where "

Cole: "Mm. That so?"* He didn't even glance up from his plate.

Later, when Flora attempted to compliment him, hoping to draw his attention:

Flora: "Your performance at the last showcase was incredible. Everyone was talking about it."

Cole: "If you say so."* His tone was flat, as if the topic barely interested him.

Each response chipped away at her confidence, making it painfully obvious....Cole simply didn't care. Charles, on the other hand, seemed pleased with himself, as if he had confirmed something he had been suspecting.

And Linda....Linda was simply watching.

Then, halfway through the meal, as if remembering something, Charles suddenly turned to Linda with a thoughtful expression. "By the way," he said, setting his glass down. "STARLINE Studios is expanding. Any plans to try out for STARLINE Studios again?"

Linda finally looked up.
