He trusted Jude Shaw too much, which is why he fell completely into his trap. But now Gloria Galloway has already dragged her stuff over to report for duty, and he can’t bring himself to kick her out, especially hearing she’s resigned from Grandeur, it only adds to his headache. Grandeur’s employees are much more respectable than a celebrity assistant, clearly Gloria Galloway’s target was him. However, Julian Sterling knows very well he can’t offer her anything. "Julian Sterling, is this your script? I see you’ve marked it up a lot, so earnest, no wonder you’ve achieved such success." Gloria Galloway keeps chirping on, then starts looking at the script, finding it quite interesting. Julian Sterling just feels his forehead constantly aching, he can only rub his brow. "You better think this through, don’t act recklessly." If she focuses her energy on him, she might end up getting nothing. Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝✦𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖✦𝕟𝕖𝕥 Gloria Galloway looks at him earnestly, her almond eyes blinking. "Best Actor Sterling, I’ve already decided, don’t worry, I’ll definitely become a great assistant, I’ve already crammed a lot, I definitely won’t hold you back." Julian Sterling struggles to speak. On her first day at work, Gloria Galloway shattered Julian Sterling’s favorite teacup, a customized piece from when he sought out a master craftsman, who has now passed away, making this cup irreplaceably unique. Seeing the shattered fragments on the ground, his head throbbed intensely. Gloria Galloway widened her eyes in surprise, then embarrassedly squatted down to pick up the pieces. "I’m sorry, Best Actor Sterling, you placed the cup wrongly, that’s why I... I’ll go out and buy you a new one later, you can’t blame me for this." Julian Sterling hadn’t even started blaming her, but she was already trying to shirk responsibility, and she was pretty good at it. Julian Sterling clutched his chest, when Jude Shaw had nearly broken the cup, he’d been so angry, he ignored him for an entire month. But now that Gloria Galloway was the culprit, he could only bottle up his anger, even though he’s not a saint, he couldn’t easily vent his anger on a young girl. Gloria Galloway looks like a cute, energetic young lady, when she stares at you, no matter how angry you are, you can’t let it out. This is the only time Julian Sterling felt so frustrated. Their location is a workspace, currently not many people around. Jude Shaw happened to push the door open and come in, seeing Gloria Galloway squatting on the ground picking up ceramic fragments, he couldn’t help twitching his brow, why did those fragments seem so familiar? Taking a closer look, wasn’t this Julian Sterling’s most treasured teacup? "Did you... break this?" His voice trembled slightly, even somewhat off. Gloria Galloway nodded, a bit embarrassed, on her first day she’d shattered Best Actor Sterling’s teacup, he probably wouldn’t have a good impression of her now. Jude Shaw patted her shoulder, his heart trembled, when he had merely touched the cup, Julian Sterling ignored him for a month. Now Gloria Galloway had actually shattered it, and judging by the look of it, no piece was left intact, impossible to remedy. Yet Julian Sterling was sulking silently by the side? Jude Shaw was really delighted, what is this called? Every mountain has a higher mountain, every item has its master. Who is Julian Sterling? When his temper flares, he doesn’t even regard Hugo Quinn, none of them dare incur his wrath. Evan Yancy even had a brawl with Julian Sterling, both of them fought the entire afternoon, it was Jude Shaw and Hugo Quinn who pulled them apart, but for men, any misunderstanding can be settled with a fight, the next day they’re shoulder to shoulder like brothers. "Don’t joke with me, I know he’s definitely not happy, I’ve just started my first day here and broke the teacup." Gloria Galloway was a bit disappointed, she originally wanted to leave a good impression on him, but alas. Jude Shaw slanted a look at Julian Sterling, realizing Julian Sterling was staring at those fragments in agony, his mouth curved slightly. "No, you’ve solved your love rival problem, let me tell you, Julian treasures this cup dearly, always using it for water, carrying it everywhere, he would have eventually neglected you for the sake of this cup, now you’ve shattered it, consider your potential rival removed, Gloria Galloway, do well, I support you, when you two eventually get married, I’ll make sure to gift a huge lucky packet." Gloria Galloway’s face turned red, they haven’t even talked about marriage, she can’t even imagine it. "Jude Shaw, what are you mumbling about?" Julian Sterling’s mood is really bad now, when he’s in a bad mood he needs a vent, and Jude Shaw happens to be there to take it. Jude Shaw ruffled his hair, what’s wrong with this man, is he trying to direct the anger at him? He stood up, grinning as he walked to the door. "Not doing much, just came over to check if Gloria’s doing well, didn’t expect her to be so capable, I knew Gloria would be the best fit as your assistant, won’t disturb you two anymore, Gloria, remember to wrap the ceramic pieces for Julian, he might want to keep them." Even as he was leaving, he couldn’t resist making comments to annoy Julian Sterling. Julian Sterling’s expression changed as expected, even Gloria Galloway, who was rather oblivious, could still sense the oppressive atmosphere in the room. She wished she could shrink into nothingness, like a quail, not daring to speak. Following Jude Shaw’s advice, she collected those ceramic pieces and placed them in a box on the side, then she timidly approached Julian Sterling, holding the box above her head as if presenting an offering. "Um... Best Actor Sterling, count them, none missing." Seeing her , Julian Sterling felt even more stifled, he reached out to rub his brow, and gave up. "Really, none missing, Best Actor Sterling, I’m sorry, I’ll go buy a new cup for you now." After saying this, she put the box aside and quickly ran out, bumping into the door on her way out, nearly tripping, fleeing as if chased by ghosts. Julian Sterling looked down at the box, then recalled the scene when she raised it with her small hand, couldn’t help but chuckle, like offering incense. When he realized, he touched his curved lips, and his smile slowly faded. Someone shattered his cup, and he actually laughed, if it were Jude Shaw or anyone else, he’d probably already fought them. Julian Sterling felt his head hurt more, he threw the box into the trash can, it can’t be used once it’s broken, why keep it. Gloria Galloway who had fled the scene rubbed her forehead, so embarrassing, really embarrassing. Why on her first day did she make one mistake after another.
