She sneered disdainfully, her proud eyes scanning me from head to toe, and chuckled, “There’s nothing special about you at first glance, no wonder Mr. Humphrey kicked you out with one foot.”
Such irony, I have heard it countless times since my family went bankrupt, and my heart has long been calm.
I got up and said, “You guys keep talking, I’ll go over there and take a look.”
After saying that, I put down the bottle of drink and walked towards Vonnie.
Vonnie, although a supporting role, had quite a lot of scenes, and they were all tough action scenes. I hope she can become famous because of
this movie.
I glanced back at Anton.
Anton was chatting with Cristina, and the two of them seemed to be talking about something interesting, laughing and joking.
Today, because it was Cristina’s birthday, the crew wrapped up early.
Vonnie originally wanted to stay at my rental for one night, but Cristina invited the whole crew to her birthday party.
Vonnie didn’t want to go, but didn’t want to offend her either, so she had to grit her teeth and go in the end.
She asked me to go, but I refused.
I couldn’t drink alcohol again. If someone asked me to drink, I wouldn’t

drink. It’s inevitable that I would offend someone.
After class, everyone headed to the upscale private room booked by Cristina.
I returned to my rented apartment alone.
After leaving the crew, I was about to hail a taxi by the roadside.
The sound of car horns suddenly came.
I
turned my head and saw that it was Cristina.
A silver–purple luxury sports car, very stylish.

She stopped in front of me and looked at me with pity in her eyes, “Tsk tsk, you look so down and out. You seem pitiful. Why don’t you come to my birthday party?”
Anton lazily leaned against the passenger seat, casually glancing ahead with a cigarette between his fingers.
The man’s indifferent attitude towards me at the moment sharply contrasted with his warmth and enthusiasm towards me in the morning, making me suddenly feel like these were two different people.
“Hey, I’m talking to you, are you deaf?!”
I came to my senses and smiled at her, saying, “Ms. Durant, thank you for your kindness, but I have something else to do, so I can’t go. Happy birthday and have fun.”
Cristina disdainfully snorted and sneered, “Even though you are no longer a wealthy young lady, you still have a big attitude. Are you waiting for Mr. Palmer to personally invite you?”
She finished speaking, looked at Anton, and sneered at me, “After someone goes bankrupt, it seems they still can’t adapt to this gap. Why

don’t you pity her and invite her to join us?”
Anton smiled and casually said, “If she doesn’t want to go, just let her be. There are enough people to keep you entertained, not to mention she always has a gloomy face, which would ruin the atmosphere.”
“Haha, that’s true.”
Cristina glanced at me mockingly, then drove away.
From beginning to end, Anton never looked at me.
I couldn’t help but frown, feeling puzzled about why Anton was being hot and cold towards me.
Sometimes he was so enthusiastic that I felt as if we had known each
other for many years, like good friends for years.
Sometimes, he looked at me with a cold and indifferent gaze, making me feel very distant.
And I don’t remember at all what he said in the afternoon, as if I had a deep connection with him before, but I forgot.
