Chapter 964
Chapter 964
Winnie went to the studio a week after returning to City N.
When she appeared in the studio, she was recognized by many fans. Many of them took pictures and posted on Twitter.
It also broke the rumors of she terminates the contract because she didn’t attend the opening ceremony of the new studio two months ago.
Sherry Perry took her to the office, looked at her thin face and sighed, “Are you filming or working as a coolie these past few months?”
Hearing this, Winnie smiled.
The environment of the scene in this play was very harsh. She was suffering from dust and high wind every day. Yeah, she could say that she had been working as coolie in the past few months.
Winnie said, “I have no other work arrangements these days. If there is any new product that needs to be shot, you can come to me at any time.”
Sherry nodded and said, “You came just in time today. A few products have just been finished, and I haven’t had time to take the closed-up pictures. If you’re available, help me try the shots.”
“OK.”
Sherry got up, “Then let’s go. To the studio next door.”
After walking a few steps behind her, Winnie said, “Stella, where’s she? Didn’t she come?”
Sherry said, “Stella usually accompanies the little guy to treatment in the morning, and only comes over after lunch.”
Winnie nodded, didn’t speak. No one knew what she was thinking.
Sherry was silent for two seconds before saying tentatively, “Haven’t you let go of what happened before? Stella didn’t hate or complain about you at all, and...”
Sherry hesitated, then continued, “And Channing is doing good over there. He has already participated in several key surveys.”
Winnie chuckled, “That’s good.”
Sherry knew that it wasn’t easy for her to say those words with a seemingly relaxed expression.
Well, there’s not enough time.
After another two or three years, she would be able to let it go completely.
...
As soon as Stella arrived downstairs, she heard many people in the store discussing something excitedly.
A staff member walked up to her and whispered, “Ms. Stella, Winnie has just arrived and she is shooting upstairs.”
Stella nodded. “Okay, I see.”
Outside the studio, Stella saw that they were still shooting, and she didn’t go in to disturb them. She sat on the sofa nearby instead.
Sherry was just trying out how the product would look like in the picture this time, and it didn’t take much time.
When they came out, they could see Stella was sitting there.
Sherry said, “Stella, you came so early today.”
Stella said, “The treatment finished early today.”
She stood up by supporting the sofa and said, “Have you had lunch? Let’s go together.”
Sherry held her at the same time, “Okay, we’re just about to eat.”
Winnie stood aside, her eyes slightly looking down, “You guys can go. I still have something important to do. We can do it next time...”
Stella said, “No matter how busy your work is, you have to eat. Come on, just do it after lunch.”
Just as Winnie was about to say something else, Sherry’s also said, “There’s no such thing that worthy of skipping lunch. Let’s eat first.”
Winnie couldn’t run away the two of them. She could only agree without saying anything.
There was the commercial street downstairs, and it was also the peak time for lunch causing every café to be overcrowded.
They could only go further to have lunch.
Sherry held Stella by hand, looked at the overcrowded street and the crowd, and said a little melancholy, “We should have driven our car out. Stella, are still you okay? Shall we take a taxi?”
Stella was pregnant with huge belly. She indeed felt much more tired than usual when walking.
She said, “I am fine. Let’s go ahead and take a look.”
Winnie said, “There is a private restaurant in the mall over there. My friends and I have been there. There are not many people and it is quiet.”
Stella said, “Okay, let’s go then.”
The shopping mall was very close to them, and it took them ten minutes to the restaurant. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
Since this private restaurant had a membership system, there were much fewer people than other places, and it was quieter and more comfortable.
After checking out Winnie’s membership, the staff took them to the corner booth.
Sherry took the menu, “Let’s eat some bland food. Stella you...”
Stella held the teacup and stared at the spicy chicken diced on the menu very persistently, “I want spicy food.”
Sherry didn't understand what she meant.
Winnie said tentatively, “Don’t you like sour food before?”
Stella explained, “The taste changes in the middle and later stages of pregnancy. But I’m okay with sour now. I like both kind of food.”
Sherry didn’t dare to let her eat very spicy food. Eventually, most of the dishes were bland food.
Halfway through the meal, Sherry went out to answer the phone, leaving enough privacy for them.
As Sherry left, the warm atmosphere became a little awkward.
In the end, it was Stella who broke the silence and said, “How have you been during this time?”
Winnie nodded lightly. She then answered after a while, “Actually, I’ve always wanted to apologize to you in person.”
Stella smiled and said, “I know that you still can’t let it go in your heart. Even if I say I am cool with that for a thousand times. For you, you can’t forgive yourself.”
Winnie’s lips pursed slightly, but she didn’t speak.
How could she forgive herself after something like that happened?
Stella added, “I have told you, the relationship is between the two of you. Channing loves you. What he did is just what he should do as a man. As for the consequences, it’s over now, isn’t it? He will get better and better, and so will you.”
“Channing’s original intention to do these only comes from the fact that he wants to protect you. To him, he can give up everything for you. Therefore, even if you are separated, this relationship will always be sincere and warm. Just memorize all the beautiful time you spent together and let go of what’s left.”
“If you always burry yourself in the past, you could only feel the pain and misery.”
After a long time, Winnie said, “Thank you, I understand.”
Stella said, “No matter what happens to you and Channing in the future, we will always be friends.”
Hearing what she said, Winnie felt there’s tears rolling around in her eyes. She raised her head again, with tears in her eyes. Eventually she smiled at Stella in relief.
She had never cried since the day she cried after received the text message that Channing was leaving. In the past few months, no matter how hard the filming was, she did not let herself shed a single tear.
Apart from filming, she hardly communicated with people. She returned to the hotel to read and study after finishing filming.
She had never gone to crowded places, for fear of hearing rumors of someone hate or dislike her.
She didn’t use her mobile phone for the fear of the endless vicious words on the Internet.
Winnie has been in the industry for so many years, and she had been used to those remarks. But whenever she saw vicious comments about Channing, she can’t help but want to refute them.
But every time she finished typing and was ready to send it, she would eventually calm down.
Everything Channing had experienced was because of her.
She was not qualified to refute for him.
The only thing Winnie was happy about was that Channing finally chose to leave, to pursue his better future.
That’s enough for her.
