Her Billionaire Husband

Chapter 394 Meeting

“I have no idea what you’re talking about,” she denied it and waved her phone, pointing at the time. “Don’t dawdle around. We’re gonna be late. Let’s go.” She turned around and stormed out of the hotel, hiding her nervousness with fury.

Veronica did not waste any time arguing. They left the hotel and went to the venue of the runway show. Since it was a big show, it was filled with famous models and talented people. There would be tons of people watching it live, so they needed to rehearse. Mia might be the best model back in Starshine, but she was the youngest and most inexperienced one in this show.

Veronica pretended that she was really her assistant, taking care of all the trivial matters for her. Mia told her to get bottles of mineral water, sent her off to do some trivial stuff, and ordered her around like she owned the place, but Veronica patiently finished all the tasks. The rehearsal was eventually done, and Mia finished her job. Veronica eased up a lot thanks to that. It was then she saw someone familiar among the crowd. Wait… Is that Larry Freeman? It’s Larry, isn’t it?

She had gone to Collins University for her degree, while Larry had gone to the nearby film academy. They might have studied in two different schools, but they had still managed to meet up a few times. Mia noticed Veronica staring, so she looked at where she was gazing, and she felt surprised to see Larry. Whoa, is that Larry, the award-winning actor? Why is he here?

Mia felt excited, but she still acted haughty in front of Veronica. She pretended to be calm and mocked, “What are you looking at? That’s the youngest award-winning actor back home, Larry himself. Why don’t you beg me and I might get his autographed photo for you. Well, it’ll cost you a bit, but not much. Seven thousand and five hundred.”

Veronica cocked her eyebrow and looked at Mia like she had gone mad. “Seven thousand and five hundred?”

“That’s a low price. It’s not easy getting his autographed photo. The scalpers are selling them for thirty grand and more, but I’m just asking for a fraction of that price, so it’s a really good deal.” Mia was feeling smug and proud, as if she was better than Veronica just because she was a model. “Fine. What about a discount? Fory-five hundred… Nah, fifteen hundred for one autographed photo because I know you. How many would you want?” she asked.

“What a joke.”

Mia raised her voice on purpose and said in Chinese, “You’re telling me that you can get Larry’s autographed photo? But you’re just a civilian! Fine, if you can get that photo, I’ll call you Mom!” Everyone knew that Larry got in trouble once for signing something. Ever since then, autographs were off-limits, though he could still take wefies.

Mia was loud, and what she said attracted everyone’s attention. They looked at Veronica.
