Her Precious Baby

As Jacob looked at her dazed expression, he gently smiled and explained, “That year, you and I acted in a palace drama together. I accidentally broke the male lead’s emerald ring. The director caught me and was about to beat me up, but you came to my rescue.”

Angeline remained quiet.

“At that time, you were only acting as a palace maid in a few scenes in the movie, but you lost your only role by saving me.” Jacob was analyzing her expression and said cautiously, “When you left, you didn’t leave behind any words, but I’ve been looking for you ever since.”

When Angeline heard Jacob’s story, the memories came flooding into her mind.

That was her third year in junior high, and she had nothing to do during her summer break. Her friend had recommended that she take on the palace maid role. During that time, she only took it because she was bored, so she did not really care that she lost the role.

Nevertheless, she did not expect that her small act of kindness would be remembered by the young boy for so many years.

“So, you’re saying that tonight’s dinner was pre-planned by you long ago?” Angeline asked with a less hostile tone.

“Yes. Not just dinner but also the filming of the movie, The Journey. I had to beg my dad for a long time before he agreed to let me try,” Jacob answered earnestly.

He then pulled out a chair for Angeline with a sincere look in his eyes and a refreshing smile.

Angeline got a little confused. “Wait a minute. Who is your dad?”

“Michael Zane. He’s a director,” Jacob explained to her patiently.

After Jacob finished the introduction, Angeline’s expression drastically changed as she staggered a few steps.

Michael was one of the most famous directors in the entertainment industry. These days, he was also one of the most influential and beloved movie producers. He even came to supervise the production of The Journey personally.

Gosh! He has such a powerful background!

As she was processing the situation, Angeline could not help but shudder. She felt terrified just thinking about it.
