After Jessie finished her words, she left. Ivy was left alone. Her mind was a mess. She was somewhat angry and couldn’t cool down.

Jessie had said a lot of things to Ivy so it was a little bit late when she walked out of the coffee shop. Alfred had already walked into the car. Philip just arrived there. looking for Ivy.

“Jessie!” Philip stopped Jessie. “Is Ivy all right?”

Jessie said, “Don’t you want to know how Naomi is doing?”

Philip said. “Tm investigating how Naomi ended up in SafeHarbor Children’s Home. But it has been destroyed. I can’t find anything

Philip looked upset. “Naomi is my sister. Ivy has been living with us for so many years. I have long regarded her as my real sister.”

“But except for Alfred, you are all partial to Ivy. Jessie stared at Philip. “Mr. Edwards, you are absolutely in a dilemma. I know. You want Naomi to understand it. But have you ever thought about what you were doing when Naomi needed you the most?

“Don’t tell me that you had no choice. Things can’t be redone. No matter how many arguments are made, they will only be powerless. What’s more, now you know Naomi is your sister. But after Ivy made a scene about it, you’re partial to her again.

“I understand it is human nature but you can’t force Naomi to do anything.

“I’m Naomi’s friend and Mr. Alfred Edwards‘ loyal secretary. If you want to start with me, I advise you to give up this idea as soon as possible. Mr. Philip Edwards. I have something else to deal with. Bye.”

Jessie smiled gently and got into Alfred’s car.

Philip closed his eyes. He didn’t understand why it had to be like this. He thought they could have solved it if they both compromised.

The Edwards family could afford two girls anyway. He didn’t understand why Naomi couldn’t get along with Ivy.

Philip entered the coffee shop. Ivy was sobbing sadly with arms folded on the table.

Meanwhile, Jessie and Alfred went to the hotel. They lived next door to Shawn and Naomi. Now, they were working overtime.

They intended to move the business to Atopan so there was a lot of work to do.

Alfred binge read Elf in the Evening at night and then reached a partnership with Shawn to invest in this comic series.

Shawn was the person who negotiated with Philip. Naomi still had the copyright. Shawn and Alfred had the same purpose, which was to make it a profitable business for Naomi.

Jessie had made a list of a number of actresses and actors who were suitable for the roles in her comics. She planned to discuss it with Naomi early tomorrow morning. Naomi was the creator, and she had some sort of attachment to her characters. She could better determine who would be the most suitable candidate for each role.

After finishing their work, they went back to their rooms for a rest.

In the next room, Shawn was playing games with Naomi.

Naomi nestled in his arms, watching his slender and clean fingers pressing the buttons agilely. The images on the screen were a rapid blur. She heard sound notifications of how many players were down from time to time.

Shawn was very good at this game.

Naomi looked up at Shawn like it was the first time that she saw him. “Shawn, why are you so good at this?”

Shawn smiled, “It’s my first time.”

Naomi’s eyes Shawn quickly ended the game. He kissed her forehead, took out his iPad, and opened an online game app. “Your IP will be featured in a large–scale online. game. You should play this game when you are free. Feel free to tell me if you have any ideas or opinions.”

widened. After a long time, she said, “I don’t believe it.”

Naomi was very curious. “You’re responsible for these things?”

Shawn said, “This one is developed by a game company that belonged to the Fischer Group. We also have a team specially for your IP. You are my woman. It all depends on your preferences.

“Join this group chat. If you have any questions, you can communicate with them directly at any time.”

Shawn picked up his phone and invited Naomi to a group chat. Then he sent a message into the group chat.

Shawn: [Naomi, author of Elf in the Evening.]

People in the group chat instantly greeted her.

Naomi said hello to them and thanked them. Shawn was also in this group chat so everyone was cautious about what they said.

Shawn chuckled and found a photo of another actress. “She is also a pretty good candidate.”

Naomi stared at the photo. She had a cute round face with big unbelievably beautiful eyes, short hair, and an extremely sweet smile.

Most importantly, this actress was tall and slender which fit well with a very important supporting female role in Naomi’s comics.

Naomi didn’t have any idols in her previous life or this life. She did some research when she had to participate in a variety show on behalf of Joanna so she knew who this actress was.

She said, “You’re right but I wonder if she is willing to do it.”

Shawn said, “It will be produced by the Fischer Group. Do you think she will refuse to do that?”

Shawn held Naomi in his arms and showed her photos of all kinds of artists on his iPad. “Chandler gave me a list of candidates and their photos. We have plenty of time to choose the best ones.

These female stars were all beautiful. Some of them were already very famous.

it to the A list yet according to Shawn. Some of them haven’t mad Naomi asked, “Shawn, you’re the CEO of the Fischer Group. How come you know so many insignificant female stars?

Shawn said, “My Grandma wanted to introduce a lot of women to me, from the top A–list to the unknown and even trainees in the entertainment companies who had not yet debuted. As long as she thinks it is possible, she will introduce them to

me.”

Shawn said indifferently, “If you don’t pester me and she knows about you, she will probably introduce you to me too.

“Oscar is responsible for my physical examinations and will report to her about it regularly.”

Naomi kept silent for a while. She couldn’t help asking, “Shawn, can I ask you something?”

Shawn said, “Sure.”

Naomi said, “Why don’t you let me give you a baby?”

As soon as Naomi asked it, Shawn’s face darkened.

He didn’t say anything. He let go of her hand and walked to the French window.

He was tall and straight. His handsome face was reflected in the glass. He looked very cold now and even his beautiful eyes turned cold.

Naomi bit her lips and felt a little bit cold. She tried hard to hold her breath so that she wouldn’t be too sad. She told herself repeatedly that Shawn was really nice to her.

He just didn’t want her to have children for now. It did not mean she would never have children. She asked herself why on earth she minded it.

Naomi lowered her head, stood up, and walked behind Shawn. She reached. wrapped her arms around his waist, pressing her cheek against his back.

She said, “Sorry, I won’t ask it again.

“I’m just curious. I am young and sometimes rebellious. The more you insist on it, the more I want to know why.”

“Naomi,” Shawn turned around and lifted her chin. “You didn’t dare to be rebellious at all in the past.

“Well, I guess I have spoiled you. So you think you’re above me, don’t you?”

Naomi’s eyes widened. Shawn’s eyes were so frighteningly cold. He looked at her like he was looking at a dead person.

A chill instantly shivered down her spine.

Naomi thought, ‘How did I forget that Shawn was an unpredictable person? He’s like the Devil. How could he allow anyone to disobey him?

‘He is probably willing to please me if he’s in a good mood. But what if he is in a bad mood?

The image of Shawn choking her and questioning her flashed across her mind. Naomi’s eyes turned red, but she stubbornly held her tears back. She took a deep breath and forced a bright smile.

She said, “Mr. Fischer, I want to go over the list of candidates.”

Shawn said, “I’ll check the list again and send the revised version to you later.” Shawn looked into her eyes like he wanted to read her mind. When she was in front of him, she could quickly pull her together though she still looked very fragile one second ago.

Shawn let go of her hand and said, “Naomi, don’t push your luck.”
