It'll Come Naturally

"What question? As long as Mommy wants to know, I will answer it honestly," Huey put down the toy in his hand and replied seriously, his eyes looking right into her mother's. "If your daddy is in S City, would you like to see him?" Annie observed his reaction secretly, wondering if the subject would seem a little heavy for him. After all, he was just a child.

"What about you, Mommy? Would you like to see him, too?" The little boy tilted his head, and wondered, 'So, it turns out that the place far away from home that mommy told me is here. So, she has been lying to me? I could not see daddy, not because he is too far away and couldn't come back, but because he doesn't want to see me at all. Hmmm, just as I have guessed.' "I..." Annie was a little hesitant. 'Can I tell him? As a matter of fact, I really want to be with Rain, even in my dreams.' She thought secretly.

"If Mommy doesn't want to see him, then I also don't want to see him. Anyway, he doesn't want us." Huey mumbled in resignation. Annie's hesitation led to his misunderstanding. So it was but natural for a child to think and react that way, now thinking that his own father was hiding from them.

"No honey, it's not like that at all. Your daddy would love to see you and your sister so much; but he doesn't even know about you two yet." Annie said and bit her lips. Although Huey was only four years old, his understanding was a lot higher than most children his age. "So what you just said is not if, but Daddy is actually in S City, isn't he?" said Huey, looking at his mommy with great expectation. Thinking that they were so close to his daddy now, he couldn't help but get excited.From NôvelDrama.Org.

"Yes, that's right. So I'd like to ask your opinion. Would you like to see him?" Looking at him very earnestly she was curious to know what his real feelings about it were.

"Mommy, didn't you just say that Daddy didn't know about us yet? Don't you first have to tell him about us and ask him if he'd want to see us?" Huey was analyzing the situation like a small adult.

This had become a very serious problem, so Annie suddenly fell into silence. As Leena only said that everyone would get together, but she was not certain whether Rain would also be there. That was to say that she might not even see Rain on that day. In that case, she would have much to worry about. She did not want to disappoint her kids.

Just as Rain Xia walked out of the FX International Group building, he saw Eleanor waiting there. He paused for a moment, but the next second he still chose to walk towards her.

"Mr. Xia, what a coincidence!" Eleanor smiled and waved to check if he really saw her.

"If it is business, please communicate with your agent directly. If it is a personal matter, then I am sorry! I have no obligation to stay here and chat with you." What made him most annoyed was when such a woman like Eleanor, whom he only asked for help once, would think that he owed her the world and he would be at her every beckon and call.

"I was just saying hello to you. It's not as complicated as you think," Eleanor didn't expect Rain would be so annoyed at her. She felt a little offended.

"Well, that's very good! Now, I have to get going. Good-bye," said Rain, who started walking away and did not intend to spend any more time with her.

"Wait, Mr. Xia, can you tell me why you hate me so much?" It seemed that Eleanor was not a woman without her own discretion, but she was just too blunt.

"In this world, there is no love for no reason, or no hatred for no reason, so my attitude to you depends on your behavior," Rain sneered, and then quickly walked away.

Eleanor Xiao was confused and frowned. Watching his back as he strode away, she wondered what he meant by what he said. Did he like her or hate her? It was just a simple question with a simple answer.

"Miss Xiao, I've got the information we needed. We can leave now." A man scurried to her and said apologetically.

"Okay, are you sure? You got the clear and accurate information? So, who was chosen as the main actress for the new play?" At the first sight of the man, Eleanor asked nervously. It seemed Rain really misunderstood her. She was not here to wait for him, but for another important matter.

"Yes, I've found out clearly. It is said that it would be a newcomer who has just entered the entertainment industry this year." This man was Eleanor's agent, who helped her arrange schedules and acquire all kinds of projects and activities.

"What? A newcomer? How could she get that role?" Eleanor was very dissatisfied and refused to accept the final decision, because she had wanted so much to be the main character of the play. It was said to be a classic costume drama with an investment of five billion dollars. Since the cast had not yet been finalized, it had created quite a stir. It had become one of the daily top trending tweets and posts on Twitter and other social media platforms. That was to say, whoever was chosen to play the leading role would certainly become super star and earn a spot in entertainment history. In this way, she could become an A list celebrity, loved and adored by all.

"The heroine in the play was a pure and unworldly woman, so..." her agent wanted to speak more but stopped on second thought, unsure if he should tell her the truth.

"What do you mean by that? That I'm not pure and unworldly enough?" Eleanor gritted her teeth bitterly as she had thought that it would be a breeze for her to take the role as the leading lady through her connections, but didn't expect a dark horse, a newcomer to turn up from nowhere and ruin her chances.

"Judging from the tone of the casting agent I talked to, that was what they were thinking about you." Her agent spoke haltingly, a little worried that he'd be the target of her grumpy temper.

"He-he! Pure...I guess she got the part because she has already offered her body to someone, most likely the casting director. Everybody knows that it happens a lot in these circles." Eleanor said angrily and clenched her fists. 'No, I couldn't sit still and do nothing. I need to figure out a way to get that part. That part belongs to me and nobody else! In any case, I can't miss this chance to be a super star.' Her mind was racing as her nostrils flared.

The corners of her agent's lips twitched violently. He wondered, 'Serving such an actress is really...I am going to be killed by her big venomous mouth some day. Is she really not clear what place they are in now? How should she dare to talk a lot of nonsense here? Does it mean that she doesn't want to be engaged in this business anymore? As they say, do not bite the hand that feeds you.' A similar thing had also happened before. She offended, Vice President Xia just because of an advertisement. Fortunately, he had a broader mind and did not cause her trouble, even if he could do it easily with just a snap of his fingers. Otherwise, Eleanor would no longer be where she was at the moment, probably working at some filthy red light entertainment place.☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
