Chapter 178 

Camila nodded with a smile, following Erica Inside. 

Inside the banquet hall, 

Camila’s eyes were searching for Haylie. 

“Over there in the head of Silver Screen Studios, and that’s the big shot from Starlight Entertainment… It’s a room full of celebrities,” Enca whispered behind her hand. 

Camila was uninterested in them and asked, “Where’s Haylie?” 

“The star of the show won’t make an appearance so early. She’s bound to make a grand entrancer Erica laughed. 

Camila nodded in agreement. 

“Why don’t you go sit over there or wander around a bit? I need to say hello to some colleagues, but I’ll be back to keep you company soon,” Erica suggested, pointing towards a set of sofas in the corner, 

“Go ahead with your work. I’ll be fine, Camila said with a smile. 

Wright, just entertain yourself for a bit, and don’t drink any alcohol,” Erica Instructed. 

“Got it go ahead” Camila said, chuckling resignedly. 

Camila walked over to the bar and grabbed a glass of juice. She overheard two women chatting and recalled that they were close friends from online interactions. 

Fair–skinned beauty: “Hey, darling, you’ve lost a lot of weight!” 

Tall, slender beauty: “Yeah, just finished filming with a top director 1 was suspended in hamesses every day, which was so exhPeterg But you’re the lucky one. Your skin has gotten even fairer.” 

The fair–skinned woman clenched her teeth. “Really? I heard that the director’s movies have been flopping these past few years.” 

The tall, slender woman glanced at her and chuckled, “Box office isn’t something I can control. I only do my best in my role, which is certainly better than someone sitting at home like a couch potato, right?” 

The fair–skinned woman scoffed and stormed off 

Camila sipped her juice, intrigued by the superficial friendships in the entertainment industry. 

Erica soon returned and found Camila at the bar, drinking juice. She linked arms with her and asked, “Bored yet?” 

Camila shook her head. “Just enjoying the show. It’s quite interesting” 

A wealthy businessman walked by with a glamorous woman on his arm and was dazzled by the two beauties. “Haven’t seen you two ladies before?” 

The woman on his arm stiffened her smile slightly and said, “You’re not from the showbiz world, are you?” 

Erica handled it smoothly. “I’m a magazine editor.” 

“And her?” the businessman inquired, looking at Camila. 

“She’s not from this circle, Erica stepped in front of Camila, smiling politely, “Sorry, we’ve got work to do. Excuse us.” 

Erica led Camila towards the sofas. “Looks like I need to be around you all the time in this place full of big bad wolves.” 

“I’m not a little lamb, you know. I’ve had some training, Camila flexed playfully, showing off a hint of muscle. 

“Yeah, Mr. Connor insisted on you taking those classes because he was worried about you running into trouble, Erica laughed. 

They settled down on a sofa. 

Soon after, a young man approached, visibly/tipsy. 

“Excuse me, ladies, just avoiding the bar he greeted, then sat down next to Camila and Erica. 

Camila smiled and nodded. The lounge wasn’t big, and it wasn’t like they could monopolize it forever. 

A waiter placed three glasses of red wine on the coffee table as he passed by 

Suddenly- 

The lights dimmed. A spotlight focused on the spiral staircase. 

Haylie appeared, arm in arm with a young man, shimmering under the bright lights. They looked like a perfect match. 

Camila scanned the crowd, and her gaze lingered on the man’s for a few seconds. 

Erico, surprised, asked, “Connor knows Haylie?”
