Chapter 907 Something's Not Right About the Water

Susan and Little Bunny were just acquaintances, having some encounters because of Theodore. Susan had nothing else to say after that.

Little Bunny began again, "Can you help me keep it secret that Theodore and I are married and have a child?"

"Sure."

Although Susan knew little about show business, she knew many unspoken rules of the industry. It would be hard for a married actress with a child to develop, especially when she was not famous.

"But," Susan looked at Little Bunny and reminded, "Theodore is different. If you make it public that he is your husband, everyone in here, including the organizer who was just being incredibly attentive to me, will treat you with respect."

To put it bluntly, she wanted to tell her that she could use Theodore.

And she's sure she doesn't need it?

Little Bunny laughed and said, "Sooner or later we will divorce, it was agreed before. Things will be much easier for me now for a while by using Theodore, but this is the real world. Once I divorce Theodore, I don't know how many people will be ridiculed. It's better to rely on myself from the beginning, and it's more solid to fight out my career."

Susan nodded her head. Meanwhile, she was somewhat glad to see Little Bunny thought it through.

"Alright," Susan said no more.

"Miss Phillips, I gotta go out then." Little Bunny had always been overly polite to Susan.

Susan frowned.

"Just call me Susan."

"I'd rather call you Miss Phillips in public." Said Little Bunny.

It should be a way to draw a line between them. Susan respected her, thinking that Little Bunny was unwilling to have a relationship with the rich for her career.

Susan simply nodded her head again.

Little Bunny smiled faintly, then left the bathroom.

Susan simply gave herself a make-up fix and also returned to the dining hall.

When she went in, she saw Little Bunny offering another toast. Susan often paid attention to show business, knowing that the relationships with the celebrities were complicated. Perhaps Theodore would be cuckolded, she thought.

Susan returned to her seat. Everyone came over to her again.

"Miss Phillips, why didn't you tell me earlier that Miss Stern's father is Stephen Stern from the City Hall? Look, I almost neglected her."

So just a moment after she left, Clara said who she was. The people here, more or less, would play up to officials from the City Hall, so they treated Clara specially at this moment.

Clara was good at using her resources.

Susan smiled and said, "Miss Stern treats her work diligently and never affects anything at work because of her family. If you guys didn't tell me, I forgot that Miss Stern's father is Stephen Stern. Mainly because she is too dedicated, it is hard to imagine that Miss Stern is born into such a noble family. I appreciate the cultivation of her family."

What appeared to be praise for Clara was a way to embarrass Clara. The reason why she just "unintentionally" identified herself was to avoid the drink and to enjoy a sense of superiority. Thanks to Susan's words, now she would embarrass herself if she continued to use her identity.

Susan was smarter than she thought. She used to think that Susan had only big boobs but no brain, and was useless without Manuel's help.

The organizer hastened to echo, "Here's to you, Miss Stern. I appreciate your dedication."

Clara gritted her teeth. She simply didn't want to drink anymore, since she was not a good drinker, and she would get drunk if she kept drinking. And she had things scheduled for tonight. But she couldn't fall into Susan's trap.

Clara held back her words and continued to drink. Because of Susan's words, the others had another legitimate reason to approach her for a drink, making her drink even more. She was seething. "Excuse me, I'm going to use the restroom." After a while, Clara excused herself to leave.

And she did get a little dizzy at that time. But instead of going to the restroom, she left and went straight to the bar, "Give me a glass of water please."

The barmaid poured her a glass of plain water.

Clara took it and walked to a hidden corner. She took out a packet of powders and put them into the water. The powder melted instantly, and the glass of water looked perfectly the same as before. Clara had an evil smile on her lips. Susan would know what was worse than death tomorrow morning, she thought.

After that, Clara went back to her seat and placed the water on the table. Her seat was next to Susan's, and so was her glass. So it was easy for her to swap their glasses.

Although Susan didn't drink, she was still busy chatting with people coming over to her. Out of her sight, Clara quickly swapped her glass with Susan's. Nobody noticed that.

However, Susan had perfectly avoided the water. Susan had drunk little water from the beginning. She didn't like drinking water while others were drinking wine, thus she didn't allow people to toast her, and she drank little water.

Clara got a little impatient since they had been halfway through the meal.

She couldn't resist saying, "Miss Phillips, your water."

Susan took a look at her glass and answered, "Okay."

But she didn't drink it, for she would like to eat the soup.

Then, Clara waited a little longer. Suddenly, she started toasting actively.

Susan frowned, feeling that Clara's move was suspicious. So, she watched Clara toast people at the other tables and finally walk to her with her glass.

"Miss Phillips, it's your turn. Here's to you. You can drink the water."

Susan noticed that Clara had mentioned a lot about the water before her.

Was there a problem with the water?
