Chapter 15
After Alice exited the car, Daniel drove his car to a quiet stretch of road.
As Dax got off the Maybach, he could no longer suppress his curiosity for gossip. While carrying Aidy
and Coco out of the car, he carefully asked, “Mr. Kaur, did you really get married to that lady?”
Dax thought, “Can our picky CEO really find someone to get married?
“If it’s true, I’ve got to pray and thank the Almighty secretly.”
Daniel expressionlessly handed the BMW car key to the driver beside him and said nonchalantly, “Yes. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
She is an artist in the entertainment industry. Her name is Alice Doyle.”
“Hell yeah!” Dax thought. “I got her name. I’m going to tell everybody in the office tomorrow and ask
them to say a prayer and request the Almighty to bless her.”
“But it’s a secret marriage, and I don’t want anybody in the company to know,” Daniel added.
Dax was at a loss for words. He thought, “I’m the only one who can suck up to his wife, then.
“Regardless of the circumstances, this is definitely fantastic news.”
Dax wanted to prepare a gift for Daniel’s wife.
The film set that Alice was in was the one that produced the big-budget fantasy drama called “The
Enchanting Princess.” She played the role of a supporting actress. Therefore, she had a relatively
limited amount of screen time.
However, since most of the scenes involving her character were with the female lead, they were mostly
filmed during the daytime.
When Alice entered the film set, she could see Travis from afar. He was sitting next to the assistant
director, happily holding a bouquet of red roses.
She furrowed her brow. She did not walk over to greet them.
After all, she was now a married woman. She had to keep her distance from her pursuers.
Alice did not walk over to speak to Travis. The assistant director was displeased. He immediately
asked the producer to warn her.
So, as soon as Alice finished her makeup and walked out of the dressing room, Lewis Wood, the
producer, stopped her.
“Alice, are you blind?” Lewis said. “Didn’t you see Mr. Richards waiting for you over there? Who do you
think you are? Don’t you have any idea what your status is in the industry?” Lewis’s tone was very
unpleasant.
Alice adjusted her naturally wavy brown hair and said calmly, “Mr. Wood, I am certainly well aware of
my status. As a C-list artist, I am unworthy of him.”
“You… You don’t know your place!” Lewis said. Since Travis showed keen interest in Alice, Lewis did
not dare to offend her. He could only suppress his anger. Then, he carried on talking.
“After you’re done shooting, take the initiative and go into the break room with Mr. Richards,” Lewis
said. “He is very smitten by you. I don’t have to teach you how to suck up to him, right?”
Alice could not help but chuckle. “Mr. Wood, are you suggesting I should proactively sleep my way to
more acting opportunities?” she said. “That’s impossible! And don’t forget, I have beaten up anyone
who has tried to take advantage of
me.”
Having been in the industry for so long, Alice had indeed encountered numerous situations in which
she was asked to sleep her way to more opportunities. However, she would beat those lechers big time
whenever she was harassed.
This explained why she remained a mere C-list artist despite having top-notch looks and acting skills.
It was because those sc umbags that she had beaten deliberately prevented her from getting more
opportunities in her
career.
Lewis was infuriated by her attitude. He rolled his eyes repeatedly. “Alice, you are terrific,” he said. “Let
me make it clear to you. After the shooting of this drama is wrapped up, no good production teams in
the industry will ever work with you again!”
Alice no longer had the patience to deal with this person any further. She turned around and walked
straight toward the filming set.
Lewis looked at Alice’s back. “This woman has a natural ability to arouse men’s desire to dominate
her,” he thought.
Travis was not the only one who was interested in Alice. Even the directors on the set had had
romantic thoughts about her before.
Unfortunately, she was bad-tempered. She frequently resorted to physical violence.

Few men could really get close to her.
However, she could not maintain her stubbornness for too long. Travis had a bad temper. If she
provoked him again, she would be sidelined from receiving acting opportunities in the company.
Travis was actually looking forward to seeing how pathetic she would be when she was sidelined from
all acting opportunities.
