The Untouchable Ex Wife novel Chapter 1299

A tinge of panic crept into Shirley's eyes, but she was an actress who had undergone professional training, so she soon regained her wits. "Oh, that... Yes, I seem to have contacted him because I needed to get my skin booster again, so I made an appointment with him in advance. Miss Osborne, do you need it too? I can recommend him to you."

She lifted her chin and smiled at Leia, but the provocation was clear.

"Stop pretending. You know it isn't as simple as that." Leia was so angry that she rushed to Shirley to confront her.

"Miss Osborne, please behave yourself. Shirley is a celebrity, so please keep some distance from her." The agent extended her hand to block Shirley from Leia.

Shirley looked at Xavier and sneered, "I didn't expect your taste to be this... special."

"What do you mean? Speak clearly!" Leia demanded, sensing that Shirley was mocking her.

"Mr. Jiminez, didn't you say we were about to start shooting? Why is everyone still standing here?" Shirley ignored Leia as she asked Adam sweetly.

"This..." Adam swallowed and looked at Xavier. "We were about to start but Mr. Stuart came, so it was delayed. We're waiting for his order."

"Just go ahead with your shooting. Don't delay it because of us." Xavier put his hands in his pockets and ordered.

The guests for every show were fixed in advance, and the script had already been finalized too. If two people joined the show all of a sudden without any script, accidents would happen very easily. For example, the show might be too boring or the guests might be too wild, and then it would be hard to edit the show later. Previously, he invited Xavier to join the show as a guest out of cordiality and to gain his favor. If Xavier agreed to it, Adam did not dare to say no.

Shirley naturally did not want Leia to make trouble, so she asked Adam coldly, "Mr. Jiminez, you've always been cautious in your work, and you hate people who pull strings. Since the guests for a show are fixed in advance, people can't come and join the show at random, right?"

"That's true but there'll always be a change of plans. We'd better ask Mr. Stuart's opinion on this. After all, he's the sponsor of this show; we'll listen to him." Adam wiped away his sweat and let Xavier handle the dilemma.

Leia looked at Xavier and indicated to him to agree to it immediately.
