Chapter 703 Marriage Preparation

Just like how she had received Meredith, Jezebelle sent away her daughter, the 'census worker', in a formal manner. When the gate was finally shut tight, she turned around and started sobbing.

Roland was smoking on the sofa when she rushed into the living room. "Tell me what do you plan to do? My two daughters and I must have owed Selena in our past lives! What do we have to do for her to stop coming after us? We have just settled into our new lives, and she is about to ruin it for us again!"

While speaking, she shoved Roland in agitation. Irked by her actions, he threw the cigarette stub onto the floor. "Stop crying! I will settle this once and for all!"

"How? Don't tell me that you're going to kill Selena!"

Roland did not reply to that.

The next morning, Mia's scandal broke out and occupied all the headlines. The news reported that she had been sleeping with various famous figures as a call girl and a prostitute, and she used that to extort a huge amount of payment. Oddly, the news purposely skirted around the identities of the 'famous figures'. It felt that someone in power had meddled in the reporting.

When one of Stardom Entertainment's top stars got involved in such a disgraceful scandal, the company could only save its reputation by permanently keeping Mia away from publicity.

Mia, who had not even enjoyed the heyday of her career, fell from her short-lived stardom into the abyss of shame and anonymity.

No one could get hold of her, and the TV show production crew understandably requested to end their contract with her. Once the TV show lost its female lead, it was almost impossible for the filming to go on. During the uncertain period, the director decided to put the entire crew on leave, which was depressing news for Jude.

She loved her character and the profession of acting. After going through so many challenges to bag a role, she now faced the possibility of losing her job.

That day, she went home glumly. Wyatt had prepared dinner, and they chatted while eating.

"Baby, I need to tell you some not-so-positive news: I am going to lose my job again. Since the female lead is gone, I guess the show will have to be temporarily halted." Jude maintained a smile on her face as she made the painful announcement.

"That's okay! You should take the chance to have a good break at home. Plus, our house renovation is going to start soon!" An idea struck Wyatt as he lit up. "Why don't we use this period of free time to get married?"

"Huh?" Jude was taken aback by his suggestion.

"What's with that shocked expression? Haven't we been planning to get married for a while?" He beamed. "After we get married, you can resume filming. That's better than having to plan the marriage around your filming break. What do you think?"

Wyatt felt proud of himself for coming up with the brilliant idea.

"Sure, let's do what you suggested." Jude had no good reason to object.

With that, their marriage was finally on the agenda.

After the conversation with Wyatt, Jude went to meet with Selena with a weary look. It was extremely rare to see Jude in low spirits.

"What's with the long face? Aren't you getting married soon?" She playfully knocked on Jude's forehead.

"Yes, the preparation for my marriage is getting real." Jude lay on the sofa and stared vacantly at the ceiling. "Selena, how do you picture me in a married life?"

"Hmm, you'd probably be the same as who you are now. I didn't sense any changes in me before and after marriage." Selena munched on a slice of pineapple and exclaimed, "This is so sweet! Here, have one."

Then, she picked up a piece of pineapple with a toothpick before feeding it to Jude.

"Wait, are you thinking of running away?"

Jude shook her head. "No, I'm not! I'm just worried because this is my first time getting married, and I'm inexperienced in handling everything." She then sat up on the sofa and looked at Selena. "How's the progress on tracking down Meredith? Did you capture her?"

"No. I will not handle this matter anymore-Pierre is taking over. It's better that way because he won't get to nag me for doing things my own way."

"Well, you still have to be careful. Meredith has nothing to lose now-who knows if she'd be willing to give up her life just to have you dead!"

Selena shook her head confidently. "No, she won't risk her life. If she has the resilience to survive life in the red-light district, that shows how serious she is about staying alive."
