Chapter 1273 I Don't Care About Your Business
"Penina, I don't care about your business," Caspian said as he picked up the clothes from the floor and put them on.
"You've been in the entertainment industry for so long, don't pretend to be innocent in front of me. Do you feel like you've lost out because you didn't sleep with those executives? After all, I haven't helped your career at all."
Penelope didn't argue back.
She knew that no matter what she said, Caspian wouldn't believe her.
Getting out of bed, she watched Caspian dress. She let go of the blanket, picked up her clothes from the floor, and put them on.
Her dress was torn, and she covered her waist, having no other option. She glanced at Caspian and saw that his eyes were cold and disdainful.
Just like when Penelope left years ago.
When Penelope chose a different path, Caspian's gaze was full of disdain.
That disdain pierced deep into her heart.
Penelope gritted her teeth, picked up her phone, and saw that it was fully charged. She turned it on and checked the time.
Oh God, she had a shoot this morning, and now the time had passed.
She hadn't gone to the set and had been missing for two hours.
She thought her assistant and manager would be looking for her, but Penelope found that they weren't.
Only Finnian had sent her a text message.
[I know you're upset, Penelope. This is for our future. The driver told me he didn't pick you up, so just rest well. You don't need to go to the set tomorrow; I've arranged for you to take the day off. Rest well and don't throw a tantrum.]
The text was sent last night.
Penelope laughed, a mocking laugh.
She looked up and met a pair of eyes.
She looked at Caspian. "Why are you in Suncrest City? Why are you here?"
She wanted to talk to him calmly.
"None of your business," Caspian said as he fastened his belt.
The sound of the metal buckle cutting through the air irritated Penelope's ears.
She gritted her teeth. "Caspian, we made love last night. Can't we talk calmly for a few minutes?"
Caspian remained silent.
Penelope looked at him. He seemed unchanged, just like the boy in her memories.
Yet he also seemed very different.
His demeanor was still cold and distant.
She took a deep breath. "Long time no see, Caspian."
"Then you better look closely. I am Caspian, not Finnian," Caspian's voice was hoarse and unfeeling.
Penelope was taken aback and gave a bitter smile.
"You know about me and Finnian."
Caspian smiled without emotion. "Everyone in the industry is talking about it. Who wouldn't know?"
Penelope knew he was mocking her.
Yes, ever since she became famous, paparazzi had been digging into her private life. She and Finnian had been photographed together several times.
Although her team immediately did damage control, it was useless; the videos had already spread.
They could only tell the public that she was having dinner with a high-ranking official from Dynamic Entertainment to appease her fans.
Fortunately, female stars' fans aren't like male stars' fans. Even if they date, female stars' fans are less likely to leave.
Her relationship with Finnian was almost an open secret.
People in the industry said she was shameless for being with Finnian for resources.
But while they called her shameless, they also dressed provocatively to seduce Finnian.
Who doesn't want resources? Who doesn't want to be famous?
With Penelope's beautiful face, becoming famous was just a matter of time.
