Chapter 17 He is Boyfriend Material
“I honestly don’t know about it!”
“How could you possibly not know?” Julia tilted her coffee cup around. She looked at Claire as if she was a unique creature. “You have such a great relationship with the big boss. Who would know if you didn’t?”
Claire was annoyed, but she stuffed another handful of potato chips into her mouth. “When did I last have a good relationship with him?”
“If you don’t have a good relationship with him, why did he reply to your Facebook and defend you?”
“Huh?” Claire’s munching stopped, and she turned to face Julia. “What exactly
is Facebook?”
Julia set down her coffee and took out her phone. “It was taken a few hours ago. Someone mentioned you in a Facebook post and even included your phot They shouted some terrible things and shouted that you were impersonating C. S. Lawrence to seduce their boss.”
Julia opened the Facebook as she talked. “The big boss stepped in and cleared your name quickly.”
Claire leaned over and asked, “What did he say?”
Julia tapped on the screen several times but couldn’t find that specific post. She gritted her teeth in frustration and said, “Is it possible that the post was deleted?”
“Hmph..” Claire laughed coldly. She turned her face away, and the biting
into the chips was even louder.
Because of Claire’s cold laugh, Julia hurriedly added, “Hey, Claire, don’t question it! The big boss did respond to the post. He said you had been sacked! The ‘you’ in question was the person who accused you.”
Julia gripped Claire’s hand and shook it vigorously. She worried that Claire would not believe her. “At that moment, the internet exploded! First, they saw sight of C. S. Lawrence’s genuine appearance. Second, the huge boss showed such power and cleared your name with just a few words. Some peopl have even begun shipping you and the big boss together!”
Julia applied a lot of power because she was anxious. She even forced the chips in Claire’s hand to fall apart.
“Alright, Julia, stop shaking me! I believe you, okay?”
Julia finally let go of Claire’s hand, holding her chin with both hands and a smitten expression. “You have no idea, Claire. People on the internet are jealous. They claim that the big boss rarely posts and never responds to anyone’s Facebook posts. Nonetheless, he spoke up for you. And some people are even imagining you and the big boss as a couple. He’s got some serious boyfriend material!”
Boyfriend?
Sean?
Claire wouldn’t even think about it!
Xander’s addressing him as “Sir” had already earned her respect. Despite her claims that it didn’t matter and she didn’t care, she sincerely respected
him.
Moreover, she already had two…
On the other hand, Claire believed neither she nor Sean had a chance!
However, Julia’s words significantly improved her mood. Since he had personally intervened to clear her name, she could think of the 38 dollars as
a treat for him. Hahaha.
The afternoon flew by, and dinner was rapidly approaching. The man delivering the boxed lunches wheeled a trolley to the front door:
When the assistant director saw him, he clapped his hands and exclaimed to everyone, “Time for dinner! We’ll restart shooting when we finish eating.”
The assistant director turned after giving the announcement. Then, he noticed Claire and Julia snacking. “Ms. Lawrence, aren’t you going to eat?” he asked
with a smile.
The meal on set was nothing special. It was standard cafeteria food. Claire shook her head and shoved some beef jerky in her mouth. “I’m not going to eat. You can give my portion to someone else.”
Snacking is popular among youngsters today, particularly young girls like Claire and Julia. The assistant director understood this and said little. He turned around and invited others to join him for the meal.
At the entryway, a synchronized series of footsteps could be heard. Victor then led several people into the room. They efficiently set up tables and arranged food in an orderly and well-organized manner.
Victor glanced in Claire’s direction and smiled as he addressed the group, “Mr. Vanderbilt is concerned about the poor food quality on the set. So, he
specially arranged for meals from his hotel. Please, enjoy the food without
hesitation.”
Elena had captured the attention of the entire crew in an instant.
She blushed under their gaze. But she rose gracefully and emanated elegance. as she walked toward Victor.” Mr. Vanderbilt is very kind and thoughtful. Please tell him I am grateful for his time and hard work.”
Victor didn’t recognize the woman in front of him. But as Mr. Sean’s assistant, he knew the necessary tone and civility to show.
He smiled and said, “Certainly, I’ll convey your gratitude to Mr. Vanderbilt.”
His response was met with a chorus of dubious whistles.
Elena turned her head with a bashful face. She glared at them, and everyone burst out laughing.
Elena was thrilled, even though everyone was mocking her. It wasn’t simple for her to get to where she is now. The acting job relied on youth, particularly female actors. There were only a few golden years.
During her peak, marrying into a wealthy family was the desire of many
actors, and she felt like she was standing at the top of the pyramid when she
won Sean’s favor.
“Alright, stop laughing and come over here to eat.”

Julia made a mocking expression when she saw her proud appearance. “Claire! I believe the big boss admires you. If that Facebook post hadn’t been deleted,
you
and the big boss would be the most talked-about people on the internet
right now.””
“Don’t waste your time talking nonsense.” Claire set down her snacks, clapped her hands, and stood up.
Julia snatched her and asked, “Where are you going?”
Claire let go of Julia’s hand and pinched her face. “Julia, with so much delicious food, you shouldn’t waste it!”
Claire made sense to Julia. With so many delights, how could they not indulge, regardless of who the big boss liked?
Julia stood up without waiting for Claire to react. She hurriedly dashed

eat until I’m stuffed!”

Claire had a particular fondness for the sweet and sour spare ribs.
That acidic and sweet flavor appealed to her. NôvelDrama.Org © content.
She scooped many pieces into her plate with her serving tongs. She hesitated to take another bite because the dish was nearly completed.
“Ms. Lawrence, aren’t you being too selfish? Take a small portion of each dish. Why are you so obsessed with this one? What would the other people eat if you ate everything?” An irritated voice said in her ear.
