Chapter 128,Coolest Girl in Town
Of course Lily knew how important this was, and she said, “Please tell me what you would like me to do, President Griffith.” Alexander leaned in, and they both slipped into a deep discussion. About an hour later, she left his office and returned to the design department. The other designers gathered around her and asked, “Miss Lily, did President Griffith look for you because of a new project?” “Yeah, share it with us quickly.”’
Giving them a soft smile, she answered, “There’s no new project. Let’s finish the work at hand and don’t gather around me.” Although nobody was convinced by her words, they had no one else to ask if she didn’t want to reveal anything to them. So, they returned to their work spaces. After everyone had left her alone, Lily opened the file in her hands and stared at the picture of the blood jade on the first page with wavering eyes.
Did President Griffith fall for someone? With this blood jade as the raw material, he had asked her to design a complete jewelry set with a lover’s theme. She didn’t dare to let her thoughts run wild and therefore made up her mind that she would finish this design with all her heart. …… … Early in the morning, Elise arrived at school, and a person came running toward her. Giving her a bear hug, Samantha said, “I missed you so much, Elise!” Looking at Samantha, whom she hadn’t seen in a long while, Elise noticed that she had gotten tanned. “How’s it like, living on the set?
You’re so tanned now.” With a cheerful look, Samantha held her arm. “I’ve been very happy this month, and I realized how meaningful it is to do something which I enjoy.” “Congratulations on finding your path in life,” Elise said happily. With a chuckle, Samantha replied, “This is my first piece of work, and the director said that I’m very talented. Really, I’ve already made up my mind to be an actress, and the director has also introduced me to another movie so that I can attend the audition tomorrow.
That’s why I took this chance to visit you and Riley at school today.” She lifted her head and looked into the classroom but didn’t see any sign of Riley. “Where’s Riley? Why isn’t she here yet?” “Maybe she’ll arrive later,” Elise said. “Okay,” she uttered and dragged Elise into a seat while they continued chatting. A few minutes later, Danny arrived and wanted Elise to explain another question to him, which made Samantha very unhappy.
Danny, what are you doing? Can’t you see that I’m chatting with Elise?” Without lifting his gaze at her, he said, “I’m just borrowing her for a while; I’ll return her in a bit.” Although annoyed, Samantha decided to let it go, and when Elise returned after solving the problem, she grabbed her arm, asking, “Elise, it hasn’t been that long since I last saw Danny, but why has he changed so much? Wasn’t he always slacking in his studies? What came over him today?”
Elise giggled. “It’s true that he’s a changed person. He even told me confidently that he’ll make it to the top five for the coming monthly test!” “He must have lost his mind!” Samantha gasped. Right after the words left her lips, Danny was already standing behind her without her realizing. “Hey, it’s not nice to speak about others behind their backs.” Although she was called out, she wasn’t embarrassed at all and said casually, “I didn’t say anything wrong.
Who are you calling a D-list actress? I’ll definitely make it to the A-list to show you what I’m capable of! Just hold your jaw tight so that it doesn’t fall when it happens!” Unbothered by her, Danny turned and left, leaving Samantha stomping her feet in anger. I must become an A-list actress and get so many awards that I’ll bury this annoying Danny with it! she vowed silently. Nevertheless, both of them didn’t expect that this joke and jape would bind their destinies tightly together.
Then, Samantha told her everything she knew in detail. “I heard it’s because there’s a problem with his new song. Previously, he was really popular in the industry and received a lot of compliments when his new song was published online. It was even pushed to the top of the chart once, but someone found out that this new song of his had the same music style with another singer, H, who was very popular before this. Immediately after that, H’s fans accused him of plagiarizing, and the issue just blew up.
There’s been no response from his management company, and the hashtag #CancelJackGriffith has more than three hundred million tweets online already.” Her words sent Elise into a deep thought, and she could no longer listen to Samantha anymore. At the same time, in Jack’s management company, Ronald was pacing around anxiously. “Jack, what’s up with your new song this time?”
Jack decided to keep his mum and didn’t say a thing. The original draft of this new song was discovered under the computer on his desk, and he was startled when he saw this song. The first half of the song was composed by himself, and someone had made big changes to the second half, which greatly enhanced the originally boring song.
When he showed this song to professional composers, they all said that the song was really high in quality, and that was why he decided to release this single. Who would have thought that this plagiarizing incident would blow up from it. “Ronald, I didn’t write this song.”
