Chapter 758 The Celebrity Visits

I looked at Oliver apologetically and whispered, "I'm sorry, Mr. Oliver. Don't blame her. She was just insulted because of this moments ago. Of course she's upset."

Oliver nodded with a heavy heart, still looking after the car that had sped away. "There's no need to apologize. It's not your fault, it's mine. Thank you for taking care of her."

I sighed. "You don't need to thank me. After all, she got hurt because of me. I'm heading back to the company now."

Throughout our conversation, Oliver's eyes remained fixed forlomly on the road, even after the car had disappeared.

As Carol and I got into the car, she remarked, "Lauren really doesn't care about anything, huh? No matter what he's done, he's still one of the big shots of Faswood. Anyone would respect him because of that, but look at how she spoke to him."

I sighed softly. "What's done is done."

Carol sighed too. "You can tell that Oliver really cares about Lauren."

'The more he cares about her, the more it hurts."

When we returned to the company, an unexpected guest was waiting for me.

It was the popular movie star, Poppy. She stood up to greet me as soon as she saw me coming out of the elevator. "I didn't expect you to be so busy, Ms. Chloe. I've been waiting for you for quite a while."

Carol was surprised and muttered softly, "What's going on? Why is a famous celebrity here?"

I figured I should treat her as a guest, so I greeted her with a smile. "I'm sorry for the wait, Ms. Poppy. I was just out handling some business.

Then I turned around and looked at Carol meaningfully. "Bring us two cups of coffee, and reschedule my meeting to an hour later."

Carol immediately understood and went to prepare our coffee.

I invited Poppy into my office politely. "Please have a seat, Ms. Poppy."

I put down my bag, walked back to the sofa, and gestured for Poppy to take a seat.

She probably didn't expect my office to be so modern and looked a bit surprised. When I motioned for her to sit, she quickly walked over and took a seat on the sofa.

She smiled and said, "I happened to have some business nearby and realized your office was here, so I decided to drop by and see you."

I knew that was just an excuse.

She chuckled and said, "You said your company was on the 10th floor the last time I asked. I inquired downstairs and they said you were here, so I came up. I hope I'm not disturbing you."

To an outsider, it might seem as though we were familiar with each other.

"How nice of you, Ms. Poppy. You're not disturbing me, but you certainly do have some privileges. Not just anyone can come up here. The receptionists downstairs are pretty snobby," I said. I laughed and redirected the conversation. "Your presence here has really brightened up our office, Ms. Poppy."

She smiled, turning on the charm. "You're too kind, Ms. Chloe.

I wasn't very interested in movies and TV shows because I didn't have much time to watch anything. If Ivanna hadn't told me about her at the banquet, I wouldn't even have known who Poppy was.

"I don't really see many celebrities," I said frankly. "And this is the first time I've ever talked to someone as popular as you, Ms. Poppy."

Just as I said that, Carol brought in two cups of coffee and placed them in front of us.

Poppy was pleased when she heard my compliment. "You exaggerate. I'm just an ordinary person. I'm no different from anyone else. I'm only here because of everyone's support.

Then, she looked at me intently and said, "Don't be offended, but you really do look like Harmony. When I saw you for the first time, I was genuinely startled because I thought you were her."

I shrugged, smiling casually. "That can be quite confusing. But those who know me can still tell the difference." "Oh, I see." She cast a meaningful glance at me. "But they said you defeated Harmony back then."
