Her Precious Baby

That way, no complications would arise.

After two busy weeks, Angeline finished her last scene, and “The Journey” officially wrapped up.

That night, Derek held a large celebration party and booked two floors in a hotel. All of the cast members and staff members gathered together for the occasion.

Alas, Jacob had something else on, so he could not join them.

The table was filled with scrumptious dishes, and there was even fondue in the middle. Everything smelled fragrant.

Derek was first to raise his glass, and as he inclined his head at the others, a rare smile crept onto his face.

“It’s been a tough few months for everyone, but the audience has noticed your hard work. “The Journey” has yet to air, but it has already trended on the internet six times, and the video that the official Twitter account uploaded has reached three hundred million view counts.”

The crowd was joyous to hear that the show was already receiving such a great response from the public, even though it had yet to be released.

“Although Jacob can’t be here today, we have to acknowledge how Angeline has pushed aside her other jobs to focus on the filming. So, let us toast to her and thank her for her hard work too!”

Just as those words were out of Derek’s mouth, the fellow actors and actresses all lifted their glasses and looked at Angeline kindly. All of them sang her praises politely.

Angeline nodded humbly and expressed her gratitude.

“Frankly, it’s all thanks to the film crew that I’ve achieved these results today. Let me give Mr. McKenna and everyone else a toast as well.”

It was only then Derek realized that he had made a mistake with his speech, and he shook his head weakly.

“Right. Let’s not talk about those anymore. What we need to do today is to enjoy ourselves.”

With that, the people raised their glasses and clinked them with each other.

After drinking, everyone began digging into the food.
