The Big Shot's Movie Star Wife Is Beautiful and Sassy

“The design drafts from Clayson Ninevara.” Jace Miles said, “Felix Baker gave them to me, saying they were for learning purposes.”

“Are you allowed to show these drafts to people?” Amelia Miles stood up when she heard they were Clayson Ninevara’s designs and looked over Jace’s shoulder.

“These are all photocopies.” Jace Miles said, “Clayson Ninevara himself agreed. It’s just for us to see and learn. The company also wants to train designers to improve their skills.”

“Clayson’s designs are indeed amazing.” Amelia Miles said, “They’re simple and high-class, and full of unique artistic elements. They’re so recognizable!”

“That’s where he excels.” Jace Miles replied, “That’s why he’s the chief designer at Spotlight. One of the most famous jewelry designers in the world.”

Amelia Miles nodded, “Brother, you’ve been at Spotlight for so long, have you ever met Clayson in person? Man or woman?”

“No,” Jace Miles said, “Clayson doesn’t work in-house. Felix has never revealed the gender.”

“So mysterious.”

“Yeah.” Jace Miles finished his slice of bread, stood up, and went upstairs, “Have a successful audition this afternoon.”

Amelia Miles smiled and said, “Of course.”

When Kevin Clark and Daisy Zane arrived at Cold Green Village, it was already dark.

The mountain path was difficult to walk, and halfway there, Daisy Zane wanted to switch with Kevin. But Kevin didn’t let her, so she slept the entire way.

Just like the last time, they parked the car at the foot of the slope and walked up the mountain.

They had four suitcases, and Daisy Zane carried two small ones.

Inside were clothes and quilts. They were so light that it seemed like nothing was inside.

The two suitcases in Kevin Clark’s hands were much heavier, large and filled with food, drink, and other necessities.

The two of them walked slowly uphill with their suitcases.

It wasn’t completely dark yet, and they could still see the path.

After walking for a while, Daisy Zane said, “These steps and the stones on top were all placed by Daisy.”

Kevin Clark was surprised. This was the first time the two of them had discussed their identities. He paused for a moment, then said, “That’s impressive.”

“Yeah. Tables, chairs, benches, even the bed we slept on last time were all handmade by her.”, Daisy Zane said, “She’s very skillful.”

“Was the double bed made specifically for you?”

“Yes,” Daisy Zane said slowly, “When I left Continent A, I drifted at sea for three days. After I landed, I traveled by car for a while. Afterward, I walked aimlessly for two days and then arrived here.”

Kevin Clark listened quietly.

“I had just reached the forest up ahead when I passed out from a high fever,” Daisy Zane recalled, “When I woke up, I was in the house above.”

As she spoke, she laughed and said, “It was raining heavily, cold and damp at that time. Lucia said I warmed her up when she felt cold.”

Kevin Clark also wanted to laugh with her, but he couldn’t bring himself to do so.

He thought of the hardships she had faced on her journey from Continent A.

“That was my first time living in such a house, sleeping on such a bed, and eating the food here. It took a while to adjust. In the first month, I couldn’t eat anything, and Lucia scolded me for being pretentious. We fought every day for three months. She called me delicate and sensitive, while I called her crude and violent. Grandma couldn’t move around easily, so she just listened to our fights, occasionally intervening when Lucia was about to hit me.”

“Did she ever hit you?”

“She always wanted to when she couldn’t win an argument,” Daisy Zane smiled, “Her strength was immense. Back then, I thought she could take down two of me.”

“Walk slowly, and watch out for the branches,” Kevin Clark put down the suitcases and helped her block the branches.

Daisy Zane continued, “We were both so stubborn that it always led to arguments, though she still had to cook for me. She would curse me out while preparing the meal, calling me a fool who couldn’t do anything and always complaining about the taste.”

“How did you stop arguing?”

“We grew tired of it. Lucia was bullied by the villagers when she was young. Since then, she stopped interacting with them. To protect herself, she wrapped herself tightly, even covering her eyes with the veil. Meeting so few people, she was likely intrigued by an outsider like me. At that time, my mood was horrible and my words were harsh. Every time I spoke, a fight would break out. Eventually, we both grew tired and the arguing stopped.”

As they spoke, they arrived at the entrance to the house.

Daisy Zane took out the key to unlock the door. As the lock opened, she noticed something was off.

“What’s wrong?” Kevin Clark asked.

“The lock has been tampered with,” Daisy Zane pushed the door open, hung the lock on the door, and placed the suitcases at the entrance.

The doors inside the house were locked too when they left. Kevin Clark inspected them and saw signs of tampering as well.

He opened the door and turned on the light.

The room was tidy, as they had cleaned it before they left.

However, it was evident that someone had been rummaging through their things.

“Someone went through our stuff,” Kevin Clark said, “But ?they seemed to be careful not to leave too many traces.”

Looking at the room, Daisy Zane felt a sudden chill in her blood, as if it had frozen for a moment. She felt the icy pain in her veins.

However, Kevin Clark’s comment about the intruder being “careful” warmed her up a bit.

This was different from the last time.

Last time, the intruders had torn the place apart, nearly digging three feet into the ground to find what they were looking for.

These careful movements indicated that this wasn’t the same group of people.

Kevin Clark held her hand and said gently, “Don’t worry, maybe someone was just curious and came in to take a look.”

Daisy Zane squeezed Kevin Clark’s hand and looked at the ceiling in the left front of the room, “There’s a CCTV camera in there. But without a card reader, we can’t view the footage now.”

Kevin Clark followed her gaze and saw the camera. It was so well-hidden that he hadn’t noticed it last time.

This camera and her reaction just now hinted that someone had been here before.

“How long can it store footage?”

“One year,” Daisy Zane said, “I replaced the storage card just before Chinese New Year, right before you arrived.”

“Okay, take it with you when we leave.”

“Alright.”
