Chapter 85
Chapter 85
The manager was in a discussion with the host on the best way Lucas should make his appearance on stage. “Mr. Nolan must give a speech later. Should he make his appearance during the finale or should he do it during the opening?”
“Um… Should we ask Mr. Nolan for his opinion?” The host worked with Nolan Entertainment too but this was the first time he heard about Lucas attending an event like this.
Is the rumor about Lucas and Cindy being a couple true?
Did Mr. Nolan get down from his high horse just to attend a birthday party like this?
“Alright. I’ll ask Mr. Nolan when he gets here,” the manager said, excited. When Mr. Nolan comes, I must take this opportunity to hype the news of Cindy and Mr. Nolan.
I will make sure Cindy reached the apex of her career in the entertainment industry.
Half an hour later, Lucas parked his car just outside the theatre. Once Hera got down from the car, both of them entered the theatre together.
The theater was packed with fans from all over the world. All of them were here to celebrate Cindy’s birthday.
Hera was somewhat envious of Cindy. When I become a popular pianist, I’ll definitely have more fans than Cindy.
She’s just a not-so-famous celebrity. I’m much more advantaged in terms of my family background.
The manager had been standing by the entrance to welcome Lucas. When he saw the latter, he said excitedly, “Mr. Nolan, it’s an honor to have you here.”
Lucas’ expression was cold when he asked, “Where’s Ms. Wynn?”
“She’s backstage. This way, please.” The manager brought Lucas backstage. He only realized a while later that a woman was with Lucas.
The manager originally thought that she was just a fan of Cindy. But now that he thought about it, he felt that something wasn’t right.
Could she be the rumored Mrs. Nolan?
“And this is…?” the manager asked carefully while they made their way backstage.
“Oh. This is Ms. Hera Chapman.” Lucas’ expression still remained cold.
Such a simple introduction?
The manager was more confused now. He had a nagging feeling that he had heard about her surname before.
But they had already reached backstage so he didn’t think much about it anymore.
Cindy got up from her seat happily upon hearing their footsteps. “Mr. Nolan, you’re here!”
She quickly welcomed him with a big smile blossomed on her face.
However, she instantly froze when she saw Hera who was by Lucas’ side.
Why did he bring another woman when attending my birthday party?
Her figure doesn’t look like the slender figure I saw at the Nolan family home.
Mrs. Nolan is tall and slender. She’s at least 170 cm tall when wearing heels.
But this woman is only about 165 cm even with her heels on!
This is obviously not Mrs. Nolan.
I knew that there are lots of women who chased after Mr. Nolan, but I didn’t know it’s to this extent!
Cindy suppressed the unhappiness she was feeling. She looked at Lucas with her bright eyes and said gently, “Mr. Nolan, can you please give a speech later?”
“Your foot is all healed?” Lucas questioned as he glanced at Cindy’s feet that were clad in heels.
Hadn’t she went for an operation just recently? She’s recovered in just a week?
“It still hurts a little. But I can endure it for my fans’ sake.” Cindy plastered a strong look on her face as she said, “The tickets for my birthday party have been long sold out. If I change the date, my fans will be disappointed. It’ll not only affect my reputation, but also the company’s reputation.”
She’s playing innocent and putting on a dedicated persona!
Hera was so disgusted by her act, she almost puked. “Ms. Wynn, you’re such a dedicated person! I’ve got to hand it to you.”
“Thank you, Miss.” Cindy smiled slightly and added, “I’m honored to have you and Mr. Nolan attend my birthday party.” NôvelDrama.Org exclusive content.
“This is Ms. Hera Chapman.” The manager quickly relayed what Lucas had said earlier to Cindy.
Cindy smiled and said nothing else.
She stared at Lucas expectantly. It’s my birthday today. He must’ve bought me a present, right?
Even if we’re just friends, it’s not right to attend a birthday party without a gift, right?
But things did not turn out the way she expected.
Spencer came in right at that moment with a bouquet in hand. He walked towards Cindy and said, “Happy birthday, Ms. Wynn. This is a gift from Mr. Nolan.”
A bouquet of flowers?
