Sonia shook her head,
"Colton, don't make things difficult for my sister..."
"Don't worry..."
Colton signaled the staff to take Sonia back to change into her wedding dress, his gaze faintly fell on Jennifer's abdomen, "Jennifer, what medicine do you have in your hand?"
Jennifer was taken aback by his sudden irrelevant question, subconsciously hiding the pregnancy-protecting medicine behind her, staring intently into his eyes.
Unfortunately, she couldn't detect anything, and Colton's eyes were still hollow.
She was certain that Colton's eyes couldn't see.
Jennifer tightened her grip on the medicine pouch and calmly said, "Anti-diarrhea medicine, do you want to try some?"
The more she tried to hide it, the more Colton sensed something was amiss.
He suddenly stepped forward and grabbed her wrist, his gaze falling on the infrared image of the camera overhead.
Without any change in expression, he took out the medicine bottle and felt it twice.
Seeing his inscrutable appearance, Jennifer felt a little panicked.
She snatched the medicine back and said angrily, "If you want to take medicine, go to a psychiatric hospital!"
Colton's face was filled with coldness, "Jennifer, what are you hiding?"
His big hand suddenly stroked her abdomen and applied a slight pressure, "Are you really not pregnant?"
Jennifer was startled and jumped back two steps like a spring, warily looking at Colton, "If you want a child, go find Sonia!
Don't keep worrying about your ex-wife's belly!"
After saying that, she fled with the medicine in her hand, her heart thumping non-stop, unable to figure out what she had done to provoke Colton's suspicion. ...
Colton looked faintly in the direction where she had left.
His palm still had the warmth of the medicine bottle.
He raised his hand to let Nelson come over, "Are there any hospitals nearby?"
"There is a private hospital across the street, and it's quite famous."
Nelson wondered, "Mr. Redford, why did you suddenly start caring about Miss Jennifer's whereabouts?"
Colton didn't answer, his tone icy, "Check the surveillance to see what medicine she bought!"
Seeing that Colton was too preoccupied with Jennifer to even care about trying on the wedding dress, Nelson sighed and hurriedly went to check.
The result was also strange... "Mr. Redford, the HD camera captured it very clearly.
There's no information about the medication on this bottle, only a string of drug codes."
Nelson found it strange too, "Generally, this kind of medicine bottle is custom made by private hospitals for patients with special requirements."
"Is there a need for secrecy if it's a laxative?"
Colton's face suddenly darkened.
He sent the drug code to Peter to investigate— If Jennifer was really pregnant, he must take action sooner!
He absolutely couldn't allow any further relationship between himself and this vicious woman. ...
Jennifer returned to the car, her heart unsettled: What was the deal with Colton's eyes?
Why did she always feel that he could actually 'see' her every move?
However, from a pathological standpoint, there really was no sign of recovery in his eyes.
Unable to figure it out, Jennifer forcefully stopped herself from focusing on Colton and thought about Sonia's provocation earlier.
She narrowed her eyes dangerously: Although she couldn't be too assertive for the sake of her child and mother now, she wouldn't allow Sonia to go too far.
Jennifer's lips curved into an evil smile, and she took out her phone to contact the director, "Director Louis, I'll personally attend the actor's audition for 'Sacrificing the River and the Mountain.'" ...
That day, Colton kept his promise and accompanied Sonia to the audition for the new drama.
Director Louis was the only director who had won the prestigious Academy Award, which speaks volumes about his status in the industry.
"'Sacrificing the River and the Mountain' is the upcoming masterpiece of a webnovel writer
'"Sunshine'" and she has a massive fan base.
There is no need to worry about its attendance.
There are a total of four works by the Great Writer, and the first three adaptations were all big hits in their respective years.
Even a small supporting character became incredibly popular... Sunshine has become the password for hit movies."
"This movie has a huge investment and a star-studded cast.
Additionally, it's the first time that Sunshine herself has participated in the adaptation of her work.
It is already recognized by the industry as a guaranteed hit.
If I could audition for one of the roles, my ancestors' tomb would emit green smoke."
"With the release of Sunshine's work, the auditions have been flooded by actors, and countless well-known actors have been fighting for even a small role.
There is little hope for minor roles like ours in this destined double box office and word-of-mouth hit."
Several beautiful actresses gathered together, discussing Sunshine's masterpiece in a tone of admiration.
Suddenly, they all turned their eyes to an elegant-looking Sonia, who came arm-in-arm with the tall and handsome Colton.
The man exuded a domineering aura befitting a man in a high position, and showed tenderness and shallow smiles to Sonia, making others envious.
"Is that the President of GN Group, President Redford?
I heard Sonia is going to be engaged to him!" "Sonia has become an A-list celebrity in just a few months since her debut; the backing behind her is too strong...
She's also here for the audition, so it seems like the female lead role is already in the bag."
"GN is a conglomerate owned by the richest man.
With a stomp from President Redford the entertainment industry would turn upside down.
Even if Director Louis and Mrs. Sunshine join forces, they must bow their heads and admit defeat to President Redford, had accepted Sonia as the lead actress."
Listening to the whispers of the crowd, Sonia apologetically leaned close to Colton: "I'm sorry, Colton.
I shouldn't have brought you along.
Now everyone misunderstands you..."
"When have I ever cared about the opinions of strangers?"
Colton reassured her by pinching her little hand, unchanging his expression as he led her through the crowd, without showing any unease despite his blindness.
"Focus on your audition, I'm looking forward to your good news."
Sonia smiled sweetly: " Colton, with you by my side, I'm confident.
Actually, Director Louis has seen me before and praised me for being talented in acting, but Mrs. Sunshine has always been mysterious and nobody in the industry knows her.
This time, she personally penned the script for 'Sacrificing Rivers and Mountains', so it seems that this movie aims for the international film festival."
Her eyes filled with admiration: "If we can dig out such a talent to join GN's entertainment company under our banner and make Mrs. Sunshine GN's exclusive screenwriter... Colton, she would definitely become the fastest-growing cash cow."
Colton nodded: "If we can sign her, she will be your exclusive screenwriter in the future."
"... Colton!"
Sonia was touched, and she left a kiss on his face, then shyly hugged him amidst the envious and jealous gaze.
"I won't let you down."
Just then, a staff member called her number, and Sonia quickly let go of Colton, tidying up her appearance before walking onto the stage with composure.
"Hello, everyone.
I'm Sonia.."
Sonia's smile abruptly stopped as she stared in shock at the woman on the judging panel, dressed in plain clothes, without makeup but more stunning than any other beauty.
She stammered, "Sister, how come..."
"Already trying to build a relationship with the judge before even starting your performance, which company's artist is this?"
Jennifer sarcastically looked at the stiff Sonia,
"Are you here for a proper audition, or are you taking a shortcut?"
