Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"When will Miss Knight be free?" Lucy had been waiting for an hour, but Cui Leisi still hadn't come.

Lucy could only hold Nate's assistant to ask. The assistant turned to look at Lucy. She knew that Lucy was a small star.

However, there are so many celebrities looking for Cui Lisi, it is impossible to meet every one of them, let alone accept every commission from every star.

As a top designer, of course he has the style of a top designer.

If everyone had her designs, they would become street goods.

But if some people have it, some people don't.

Her talent has become more popular. As for a star like Lucy, even if she gets an appointment with Nate, it is impossible for him to help her design a dress.

"Sorry, Miss Lucy, Mr. Knight is at work and temporarily unavailable."

Lucy's face looked a little dissatisfied. Since she had arranged to meet at this time, why hadn't she come to see her after so long?

Could it be that even a fashion designer could despise himself so much?

Lucy felt an unknown fire in her heart and said with a cold face: "In that case, I will go back first."

Lucy still suppressed her anger, this was not a place where she could be arrogant.

This is the Baron's Mansion. If you make a fuss here, you may have to buy a plane ticket back to Australia.

"Miss Lucy, I think you should wait a little longer. Mr. Knight's work will be over soon."

"My time is precious and I don't want to wait around here."

"Mr. Knight's time has been arranged. Miss Lucy, Mr. Knight has postponed other clients in order to see you. If you leave at this time, you will be very disrespectful to Mr. Knight."

"Then Mr. Knight respects me by asking me to wait here for an hour?" Lucy said with a cold face.

Lucy didn't intend to continue chatting with the assistant at all, and turned to leave the room.

When I arrived at the door, I saw Knight arriving late.

"Miss Lucy, where are you going?"

"I want to leave here. Since Mr. Knight is so busy, I won't bother you anymore." Lucy said while suppressing her anger.

With a calm look, Knight took out the folded scarf on his chest, sniffed it in front of his nose, and said in a pretentious manner: "Miss Lucy, I just met a very important person, but I still took out the towel." Time rushes to see you, do you know how much my loss is? But when I get here, you have to leave, you are disrespecting me. "

"Mr. Knight, I have been waiting for you for an hour! A whole hour, and then you tell me that I don't respect you?" Lucy lost control and her voice became much louder.

"I've already told you that I was accompanying a very important person just now. If you can't understand, then I won't force it, but if you leave here, you will be listed as unwelcome by the Baroness. It’s on the blacklist, you can consider it yourself.”

"I am the Baroness's special guest tomorrow. If you want to blacklist me, I'm afraid you don't have the power." Lucy sneered.

"Do you think the special guest has a very important status? I am one of the people who recommend the special guest, and you are just one of the special guests. Even if you are missing, there will be someone else to take your place." Knight sneered.

At this time, Zola heard the quarrel outside and came out: "What's going on? It's so noisy that I can hear it in the room."

As soon as he saw Zola, Knight immediately changed from being arrogant and domineering to being a sweetheart.

She stuck to Zola's side with a charming look on her face: "Zola, this little star thinks that I wasted her time by accompanying you just now, and now she is losing her temper here."

Lucy's expression changed. Before she came, she already knew that the mature woman in front of her was the Baroness's boss.

"Ms. Zola, I want to explain." Lucy was a little flustered.

Offending Nate is just a trivial matter. No matter how good Nate is, he is just a fashion designer.

Even if he didn't design it for himself, would he still be without clothes?

But Zola is different, she is a real powerful person in Hollywood.

It can be seen from the guests invited to tomorrow's show that she is almost the one with the lowest reputation and status among the invited guests.

The reason why Lucy was able to get this job opportunity was because her agent gave her money.

For this job, her appearance fee was US$250,000, but she stuffed US$100,000 for this opportunity.

Both she and her agent valued this opportunity, the opportunity to be close to Zola.

But now it's backfired. Not only did he fail to get close to Zola, but he offended her.

Zola waved her hand: "I don't want to interfere with your argument, but please keep your voice down. I have important guests here, and there are people rehearsing at the front desk. If any of you continues to argue, please get out of here."

After saying that, Zola left the scene.

After Zola left the scene, Knight returned to his arrogant nature again: "Did you hear that? You are not welcome here, please leave."

Lucy gritted her teeth, unable to vent the anger in her heart, and walked out of the mansion with a cold face.

But when she arrived at the parking lot, she couldn't hold it any longer. She collapsed and lay on the steering wheel crying.

What she felt was like doomsday, and the whole world became gray.

She has been working hard in Hollywood for nearly a year, but she is always just one step away from success.

Well now, she has offended the real powerful.

As long as Knight says a few unpleasant words around the Baroness's boss, she may completely lose her chance.

Lucy didn't know what to do at this time. She felt that she was finished, completely finished.

And when she returns to Australia, flowers and applause will not greet her.

All newspapers will recount her failure history, and then she will be watched by the whole people.

The stronger a person is, the more he loses his composure when he collapses.

Lucy once thought that she could withstand any pressure.

But when things came to pass, she realized how fragile she was.

Lucy cried louder and louder, no one here could hear her cry.

She can freely release her grievances and unwillingness.

Knock knock knock——

At this moment, there was a knocking sound on the car window.

Lucy was stunned for a moment, turned around and saw two people standing outside.

Chen Zhao and Fali were standing outside Lucy's car. Chen Zhao leaned down and looked at Lucy inside.

"Lucy, what happened?"

Lucy quickly wiped away her tears, but her makeup was already gone.

"It's okay, I'm okay." Lucy's voice was still choked with sobs.

"Lucy, if you have anything, just say it. We won't tell anyone." Fali said.

Seeing a woman crying in the dark parking lot, Fali felt that she must have been greatly wronged.

She felt that she needed to care about her.
