Chapter 1450: Chapter 1450: Riley Thompson Arrives
Charlotte Thompson hinted to Annie Anne that this topic should not continue any further.
Annie Anne quickly made a zipper shape on her mouth.
Campbell Prickly had already gone to another place to converse with others, leaving Annie Anne available to stay with Charlotte Thompson. The two found a spot in the resting area to sit down and chat leisurely.
"By the way, I haven’t asked you yet about the female second lead role in this script you’re playing. What kind of character is it?"
Charlotte Thompson mentioned the script, and Annie Anne leaned her upper body slightly towards her, pulling them a little closer.
"It’s an urban romance drama. I’m playing an elite lawyer."
"A lawyer, huh." Charlotte nodded enviously, then teased, "But do you have to memorize a lot of legal provisions?"
Sure enough, Charlotte’s words triggered Annie Anne’s complaints.
"Exactly, you wouldn’t believe how the director gave me such a thick book of laws to read every day."
Seeing Annie Anne’s very aggrieved expression, this time it was Charlotte’s turn to laugh at her.
However, just when the two were happily chatting away, a commotion arose among the crowd.
Charlotte Thompson and Annie Anne turned their heads at the sound, only to see a figure stepping out from the crowd.
"Why is Riley Thompson here?"
Annie Anne couldn’t help but exclaim, casting a somewhat incredulous look beside Charlotte.
"What’s up with the organizers this time? How could they invite her?"
Everyone knows that this cocktail party was set up for the XTZ brand fashion show, where Charlotte, as a designer, shined on the catwalk, becoming the focus of everyone’s attention.
Yet now Riley Thompson has actually appeared here, which undoubtedly invites commentary and scrutiny.
Indeed, just as Annie Anne thought, after Riley Thompson entered, many people in the venue began to search for where Charlotte was, gathering in small groups to quietly discuss.
"She should be here as a date, just like you."
Because standing next to Riley was a well-known producer from the industry.
Contrary to the curiosity and scrutiny of others, Charlotte’s face remained remarkably calm.
After all, it was not her first encounter with Riley Thompson, although they looked alike, Riley was still just a stranger to Charlotte.
But Charlotte knew for sure that Riley’s presence here was no coincidence.
"What are you looking at?"
Just as Charlotte was pondering this, Justin Battleson’s voice came from beside her. When Charlotte turned her head, Justin had already wrapped his arm around her waist.
He had noticed earlier that Charlotte and Annie Anne were both looking in a certain direction, so he also directed his gaze over.
"Riley Thompson is here, the actress who looks a lot like me."
Charlotte’s voice and Justin’s gaze almost simultaneously informed Justin of the commotion at the entrance.
This was Justin’s first time seeing Riley, but upon seeing Riley’s face resembling Charlotte’s, his brows slightly furrowed.
"There’s nothing much happening next, how about we just leave?"
Charlotte attended this cocktail party primarily to meet the design team from XTZ.
Since she had already met Lucas, one could say her purpose was fulfilled, so she didn’t care what happened next.
Especially now that Riley Thompson was also here at the party...
