Spoiled by the Silver Fox

"Pfft... Gillian, not funny, you know I'm over two months older than you!"

"Height is what matters! Look at you, you're still the same height as before, and you haven't grown any taller!"This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Stephanie rolled her eyes and that's when Gillian noticed the bruise on her face, frowning, "Steph, what happened, did someone bully you at work?"

Stephanie shook her head, "Nah, it's just a small injury, no biggie!"

Seeing that Stephanie didn't want to talk any further, Gillian didn't pry and instead asked about Marilyn's condition.

Stephanie replied, "My mom's doing okay, nothing serious, her condition is stable now... with continuous treatment she'll recover."

Gillian was delighted, "Really? So, after your mom recovers, why don't you join me at school? You were admitted to Center Stage too but you gave up going to college because of your mom's illness." Stephanie chuckled bitterly, "I haven't thought about that yet, let's see how things go in the future! By the way, have you eaten yet? I just got my paycheck a few days ago and thought I'd treat you to a meal." Gillian was all too familiar with her friend and knew that with her mom's illness, Stephanie probably couldn't afford the tuition, let alone pay for her mom's long-term medical expenses, so Gillian didn't say much

more.

"With your little pay, it's not even enough to cover your mom's medical bills, do you really need to treat me when you come over... come on, let's go to the cafeteria together. I'm too lazy to go to class this afternoon, I'll show you around the campus."

"Sure thing~!"

The two of them, hand in hand, headed to the cafeteria.

Since Gillian's classmates had already finished eating and left, she got two more servings of food, and she and Stephanie began to eat.

"The food at your school is not bad."

"Hehe, this place is training future superstars, so naturally, the facilities are good."

"My future superstar, make sure you take good care of your face and figure, after all, that's what you'll be relying on for a living in the future."

Gillian grinned, "I've been taking care of myself... but speaking of which what skincare products are you using, Steph? Recommend some, your skin is so good and smooth."

"Pfft... I've always been using cheap stuff."

"That's cuz you inherited your mom's good skin, born with it. I'm so jealous."

"Yours is pretty good too, I feel like you've gotten even prettier since the last time I saw you..."

Gillian winked at her, "Of course...

I've been putting a lot of effort into dressing up lately, there's a film company.coming to our school to pick actors, if I get picked and make it big, I'll take care of you! From then on my Steph won't have to do

anything, I can pay for eving!"

"Hahaha... alright, I'll just wait for you to become famous, and be known all over the country!"

Just when the atmosphere was getting good, a female voice suddenly interrupted, "Gillian, aren't you getting a little too ahead of yourself daydreaming?"

Stephanie raised her eyes in

surprise, only to find several fashionable and pretty girls sitting next to them, their eyes filled with contempt as they looked in their direction.

Annoyed, Gillian replied, "Maddie Palmer, don't you know it's rude to butt into other people's conversations like that?"

"Well, I love doing so, and Gillian, remember, if you're not happy, then I'm happy!"
