My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1651 Vacation

Eventually, they decided to skip the engagement process since they’d have to wait for a while before they could get on with their marriage. They wanted to go straight for the wedding, and Queenie had no objections to that. She didn’t want to go through the engagement process either.

“I have an idea of where to hold our wedding. Let’s do it on a beautiful island. My cousin and his wife had held their wedding there before, and it was really romantic.”

“Okay.” Anticipation flowed in Queenie’s eyes.

“We can spend a week there starting tomorrow. Take a look around. If you like it, I’ll get the wedding planner to start the preparations,” Nigel suggested.

Queenie was already looking forward to the trip, and she nodded. “Sure, we can take a trip there.”

It was already lunchtime, and the elders were still chatting happily. They agreed to the idea of skipping the engagement and going straight to the wedding.

“Mr. and Mrs. Silverstein, Queenie and I will be staying on the island for a week to see if we like the place. If Queenie likes it, we’ll be holding our wedding there,” Nigel said.

“Nigel, you shouldn’t call them Mr. and Mrs. Silverstein anymore.” Brenda shot her son a look.

He blushed slightly as he looked at the Silverstein couple once more. “Father, Mother.”

The Silverstein couple froze for a moment, but their hearts were filled with delight. They loved having a man like Nigel as their son-in-law.

“Of course, Nigel.” They gave their approval right away.

Queenie blushed and stared down nervously. She raised a glass of wine and greeted the Manson couple, “A toast, Father, Mother.”

Brenda and her husband exchanged a smile and raised their glasses to toast as well.

They gathered around the living room after dinner, and Brenda gave the Silverstein girls two sets of jewelry. She also gave Maggie an expensive emerald necklace.

Then, she gave them the keys to a villa. “A gift. You guys are living quite a distance from Nigel’s house. This villa is only a mile away. That way, you can visit Queenie anytime you want,” Brenda said.

The Silverstein couple was moved. They appreciated Brenda’s gesture.

“Thank you, but we can’t possibly take this,” Brandon responded.

“Oh, we’re a family now. Of course, you can take this.”

“Father, Mother, Queenie and I would like you to live closer to us. We can help out if anything happens,” Nigel convinced.

With that, the Silverstein couple finally took the gift, and Queenie was thankful for Brenda’s consideration. She wanted her parents to have a better life and living near her made visits easier.

The Manson couple left at 3.00PM. They had to start preparing for the wedding, and Queenie started packing up for the vacation.

Jessie had work to do as well. She had a week of class to attend, though she missed today’s lesson because she had to deal with some family matters. However, after this, she had to take things seriously.

Nigel came to pick Queenie up early the next morning. She took a small suitcase with her. That was all she needed for a week of vacation.

“Remember to take some pictures, Queenie. We wanna see the island, too,” Jessie said.

“Sure. Take care of Dad and Mom, alright?”

“Leave them to me. You have fun with your husband.”

Nigel was happy to hear Jessie calling him that. He held Queenie’s hand and led her out.

They went across town and came to a port. There was already a helicopter awaiting them. Queenie had never ridden on a helicopter before, and it was a new and fun experience for her. Though, she held onto Nigel like a koala at first as the chopper took off. Only after the flight finally settled down did she have the time to enjoy the sea’s view.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1652 On the Island

Queenie started gasping and praising the view. Nigel stared at her lovingly, and he combed her bangs when the wind billowed them.

About an hour and a half later, they finally saw the island. From the air, it looked like a green pearl embedded on the sea’s surface. It was a beautiful sight. Even before they landed, Queenie had already decided to hold her wedding here. She said, “I love this place. Let’s hold our wedding here.”

“We’re not in a hurry. You can look around.” Nigel patted her head.

She nodded enthusiastically. Once the chopper had landed, they got into the car that was waiting for them. On their way to the villa, they were greeted by flowers in full bloom.

She was taking pictures and recording some videos while Nigel was content with just looking at her. As long as she’s happy.

They got into the villa and put down their stuff. And then, a seafood feast awaited them. Nigel had hired a top chef to prepare their meals for the vacation, so the food was sumptuous.

The only thing Queenie was worried about was she might gain some weight from this trip. If she couldn’t fit into the S-size gown, it’d be embarrassing.

They took a break after lunch, and she dragged Nigel to the beach at 5.00PM. The waters were crystal clear, and schools of fish swam underneath. The pearly sands stretched as far as the eye could see, and Queenie looked forward to vacationing in this place.

She swam in the waters like a mermaid, and Nigel followed beside her. However, as she stopped swimming and tried to stand on her feet, she lost her balance and fell into Nigel’s arms.

He held her right away and pushed her up. She wrapped her arms around his neck, their faces only millimeters away from each other.

As they listened to each other’s breathing, the couple couldn’t resist their urge any longer. Thus, with the glimmering seas and a golden sun in the background, they shared a kiss. A thousand hues painted the skies, draping the couple in a blanket of romance.

Queenie’s legs felt like jelly when she emerged from the sea. She held Nigel’s hand and took a stroll on the beach. As dusk descended upon them, they returned to the villa and took a shower. Dinner was already served when they came out of the bathroom.

Queenie was wearing a sexy Bohemian dress the color of aqua. She looked ready for the vacation, and her hair was tied behind her head, making her look like an exotic woman.

Nigel was staring at her with lust-filled eyes. He was struggling with himself, but in the end, he steeled his resolve to leave s*x until after marriage. It was out of respect for her.

They had a candlelit dinner outdoors, witnessed by the stars hanging in the night sky. Having dinner with their lover while listening to the sea and wind was a romantic thing.

Queenie was in a good mood. On the other hand, Nigel thought she was the most beautiful thing around. Every time she flicked her hair, every time she pursed her lips, and every time she smiled. It was better than any view the world could offer.

He was filled with lust. His mind, his body, his soul; all of them were taken over by his desire. The only thing that held him back was his sliver of sanity. Every cell in his body told him to take Queenie. She was more delectable than the food on the table.

After dinner, Queenie took him for a stroll on the road. It was quiet, and they had no companion besides some music. Not too long after she took him on a stroll, she led him back to the villa. She had never gone on a night walk. She might look calm on the outside, but she was feeling rather nervous. Still, she didn’t tell Nigel in case he called her a scaredy cat. She held his arm, her face rubbing against his arm.

And Nigel thought he could snap at any moment if this kept up.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1653 Night Time

In the end, Nigel picked her up and returned to the villa. The air was filled with the sound of her chuckles. Oh, he’s such a tease. He maintains a weak grip for me to lean closer and hug him tighter.

And he even spins me around. It was exciting but also tense. She knew he wouldn’t let her fall, but still, she was worried. “Hey, hold me tight. Stop spinning,” she grumbled.

He stopped teasing her then and took her back to the villa. Two hundred yards was nothing for him, even with Queenie in his arms.

It was about 9.30PM when they returned. Nigel took the guest room, leaving the master bedroom for Queenie. She had lived her whole life in a bustling city. Now that she was alone in a room with nothing but a moon as her companion, she felt like staying with Nigel.

Before he could enter his room, she asked, “Can we share a room for the night?”

“Why? You can’t sleep alone?” He spoke with concern in his voice.

Is he calling me a scaredy cat? Queenie wouldn’t admit she was scared, so she shook her head. “I can sleep alone!”

“Then, get some sleep. We’ll be diving tomorrow. You need enough sleep to replenish your energy,” he said gently.

She was a little disappointed. Am I not charming enough? We’re alone together, and he’s still not reacting. While she was still spacing out, Nigel had already gone into his room. Annoyed, she threw a little tantrum. Fine, we’ll sleep in separate rooms, then. I gave you a chance, but you wouldn’t use it. You’re such a dummy! She returned to her room with complaints in her heart.

At the same time, Nigel peeked outside and heaved a sigh of relief. If she had stayed out any longer, I would have snapped. He wished to leave the best memories for their wedding night. I bet she’d think it’s memorable. He wouldn’t do as he wanted. It was all for the sake of the best memory. I wouldn’t want her complaining that I didn’t give her a memorable moment. He went into the bathroom and took a cold shower to put off the flame within him.

Queenie took a shower as well. She went to the wine cabinet and stared at the content. Eventually, she uncorked a bottle of red wine. I need this, or I can’t sleep. She was frustrated, but the more she drank, the more annoyed she was.

Is he trying to cancel the wedding? Does he think I’m not hot enough? That was an important question for a lady. It’d be discouraging if she couldn’t interest the man she liked. And it was a sign of a crisis. She was worried he might fall for someone else easily.

She drank another glass of wine and remembered she had brought a long camisole with her. She took that just for this vacation. Now is the perfect time for me to use it. I must prove that I’m hot. She’d lose sleep otherwise. With the liquid courage in her, she became bolder.

She entered the bathroom and changed into the camisole. She even sprinkled her favorite perfume over herself. One last look in the mirror and a deep breath later, she emerged from her room and made her way to Nigel’s.

Nigel had changed into silk pajamas. He was lying on the bed, and his mind was occupied by Queenie. Did she take a shower? Or is she enjoying some music? Or is she reading the news? Is she thinking about me? I hope she does. If she doesn’t think about me, does that mean she doesn’t find me attractive? Ladies don’t show their horny side publicly, but I’m her boyfriend, and I’m right beside her. She should think about me, right?

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1654 You Can’t Escape Now

A thousand thoughts flashed through his head. Suddenly, someone knocked on his door, and he reached it in one moment. His breathing was ragged, but he nonetheless opened the door. When he saw what Queenie was wearing, he gulped. That’s all she’s wearing? “It’s cold at night. You’re gonna catch a cold. You should—”

Nigel wanted her to change into something thicker, but before he could even finish his sentence, Queenie interrupted, “I don’t wanna sleep alone. I wanna share a room.” She went past him and entered his room.

Nigel’s lips formed into a smile. I knew it. She was afraid to sleep alone. So, she’s sleeping here tonight? “Don’t worry. This is a safe island. My cousin had bought the whole place. This is my family’s turf now,” he assured her.

You dummy. That was just an excuse. Don’t you know what I’m getting at? She got into his bed and covered herself with the blanket, showing only her head. She looked cute with her cheeks red and eyes wide.

He then looked at the sofa. “I’ll sleep on the sofa, then?”

Queenie looked at the sofa and patted the spot beside her as she ordered, “You’re sleeping here.”

“But won’t I disturb you?” he asked.

She sighed. That’s an obvious hint. Fine, I’ll do it myself. She got out of bed and approached Nigel with her eyes fixed on him the whole time.

He gulped. What’s she trying to do? If she keeps staring at me like that, I won’t be able to hold myself back anymore.

Queenie took a step forward, and Nigel took a step back lest he pounced on her. He was already at the edge of the bed, and she pushed him. The moment he plopped down, she pinned him down on the bed.

Finally, he realized what she was trying to do, and he noticed the scent of alcohol hanging in the air. He quickly asked, “Are you drunk, Queenie?”

“Nigel, you say you love me, but I think you’re lying,” she hissed, complaints evident in her voice.

It made Nigel panic, and he argued, “I am not lying. I will never lie to you.”

“Then, why… why aren’t you interested in me at all?” She stared at him with interrogative eyes.

He almost laughed at that. Not interested? I’m crazy for you. If it weren’t for my sanity holding me back, I’d have gobbled you up. “I am interested in you, but I’d like our first time to happen on our wedding night. I—”

Once again, he couldn’t finish his words as she pressed her lips against his.

And Nigel finally snapped. He could no longer hold himself back, and he pinned Queenie down instead.

A few moments later, she stared at him, her breathing ragged. She noticed the feral desire welling within his eyes, and she wanted to escape. I can feel he loves me so much that he wants to gobble me up. I need to get away. I think I have just flirted with something I shouldn’t have. She then smiled sheepishly. “You’re right. I think we should wait—”

“Too late for that.” Nigel narrowed his eyes. There’s no way for you to escape now.

“No. We’re going diving tomorrow. I need to sleep to make sure I’m in my top form.”

“We can go the day after tomorrow. We can stay for a month if a week isn’t enough. In any case, you’re not going anywhere tonight,” he whispered, his voice filled with lust.

Queenie regretted trying to seduce him. Though, at least she could feel how much he loved her.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1655 Teatime

“Alright, fine. But be gentle, okay?” Queenie relented. She had given herself to him anyway. All she wanted to do was grasp his heart and make sure nobody would catch his eye.

She missed breakfast the following day as the only thing she wanted to do was sleep. She felt like she could sleep the whole day. Even when Nigel called her to have breakfast, she didn’t even bother to get up.

She only woke up at lunchtime, and when she saw the hickeys all over her, her face turned red—she was embarrassed!

Nigel took her around after lunch. Their diving session would have to wait until the last day.

Back in the city, Jessie spent the whole week learning new things. Except for mealtimes and sleep, she spent all her time learning and making notes. She even spent a lot of time working between sets, learning things she couldn’t learn in class. And Stardom’s marketing for her was a success. So, today, she was heading to the company to shoot a bunch of posters for her official debut.

Jessie arrived at the company at 10.00AM. She was then led to the dressing room. An hour later, she went to the photoshoot. Even though she was debuting as an actress, this wasn’t her first rodeo in filming. She knew how to pose for the camera. Even the cameraman thought she stood out among all the beauties. She would be one of the best-looking women in the industry.

Someone entered the room just then. The assistant almost screamed when she saw him, but the man shushed her. He said he was only here to see someone and didn’t wish to disturb Jessie.

Jessie was half-lying before a bouquet of flowers. She held herself up with her elbow, looking like a beautiful butterfly that was about to take flight. Even though the cameraman took the photos head-on, she still looked gorgeous.

The man standing by the doorstep looked at Jessie with his arms crossed. He was pleased with her performance as well.

“Be a bit more expressive, Jessie,” the cameraman requested.

She nodded. Then, she followed her assistant’s guidance and changed to another posture. It was then she saw the man by the entrance, and her eyes lit up. The cameraman took the chance and snapped a photo. Perfect! She looks so alive.

Jessie couldn’t go over to him because she was in a photoshoot, but she was still delighted to see Julian. Like a maiden in love, she was radiating happiness from head to toe.

Julian smiled at her, and she couldn’t wait until the shoot was over. When it was done, she went to see him, but he wasn’t around anymore.

A look of disappointment filled her face. He’s gone? I thought he was gonna chat.

“Teatime, Jessie. Julian bought these. It’s awesome.”

“Whoa. That shop’s stuff costs a lot.”

“Yeah. Most people can’t even afford it.”

The assistants knew full well they could enjoy these thanks to Jessie, so they quickly invited her. “Come over, Jessie.”

She smiled and approached the assistants. She had some coffee and texted Julian, ‘Why did you leave?’

‘I had something to do.’

‘Thanks for the treat.’

‘No problem.’

Jessie munched on her cake, feeling moved. And then, she heard the assistants talking about a certain actress. “Someone rode on Julian’s fame. Remember Yennefer? Yennefer Cheshire? She said Julian had also treated her well during the time they were working together. That b*tch posted a thank-you note for him.”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1656 Gossip

“I saw it too. The crew posted a few photos, though. Julian gave everyone presents, not her alone. I can’t believe she’d bluff like that.”

Jessie was surprised. Hey, I’m riding on his coattails, too. I wonder if the public is also gossiping about me.

“The only one who can match Julian now is Jessie. Nobody else can.”

“That’s right! The only female celebrity he treats nicely in private is Jessie. Nobody else.” The assistants kept praising Jessie as they ate their cakes.

Jessie blushed hard at their words.

Back on the island, Queenie was enjoying the beautiful morning view. Every day she woke up, she would have something to look forward to, and life never felt better. She loved this feeling, though, for three days, she didn’t manage to see the sunrise as she had overslept. Every day, she was woken up by Nigel’s kiss, not the sun. Still, it felt good.

She had decided to hold their wedding on this island. The view was perfect, and the villas were aplenty. The island looked like something straight out of a portrait. It was just right for a romantic wedding.

The wedding planners came soon after. They talked about how they should set up the wedding, and the couple finally had something to do, which was planning the wedding. It was an important task for them.

At 3.00PM, Nigel took her to a safe spot to dive. They held hands and swam among the fish, enjoying the underwater view. It was another good memory.

Just like that, their vacation came to an end. Time flew when they were with their beloved. All that was left were memories. They stayed back for a few days to plan their wedding before leaving for home. The wedding would be held on the eighth day of the eighth month as it was a very auspicious day.

Queenie was sitting on the beach chair. She called her mother and told her about the wedding date. Now that the date was settled, the Silversteins needed to draft up their guest list. Both came from families who did business. Naturally, they had a long list of guests they wanted to invite to the wedding.

“How’s Jessie doing?”

“She’s doing fine. She goes to class in the morning and stays with us at night.”

Queenie felt a lot better knowing that. With Jessie staying with their parents, she could plan the wedding without worries. Once the wedding was done, she would go back for visits often.

Right after Nigel left the villa, someone called him. He looked at the screen and smiled. “Hey.”

“I heard you’re getting married.” A deep and sexy voice rang out.

“I was just gonna tell you. Yeah, I’m getting married.”

“Congrats. Let’s meet up when you come back. Anastasia and I would love to meet your soon-to-be wife.”

“Sure. We’ll meet up once we return.”

“See you.”

Nigel came to the beach and saw Queenie picking seashells around the shore. The waters glimmered under the sun, and she looked like a mermaid playing by the sea. He felt his heart throb just looking at her. He took his shoes off and approached her.

Queenie noticed him and showed him what she got. “Look what I’ve found! It’s pretty, isn’t it?” She was holding a rare, beautiful shell.

“It is. I’ll collect some, too.” He held her hand as they strolled on the sand, thinking about their future. “So, where do you wanna go for our honeymoon?”

She mused for a moment. “A quiet place. Somewhere not too rowdy.”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1657 Mockery

“Alright. Then, we’ll be going to Flor. It’s a quiet place, and it’s nearing autumn after our wedding. We can ski then. I stayed there for six months once. It’s a beautiful place.”

“Sure. Let’s go to Flor, then.” Queenie was looking forward to it. She didn’t mind the place. As long as she was with him, it was fine.

Stardom’s PR department had been busy marketing Jessie and raising her fame. Since she used to work in many films before, they got a lot of info on her. A bunch of indie directors and actors had praised her for her professionalism as well.

She started out being hated, but now fans were starting to know her. And the photos that were released finally showed her true beauty; she looked innocent in them.

Though, of course, there were also female celebrities who were jealous of her. Some even started slandering her.

Fortunately, the PR department cut down on the slanders as soon as they showed up. Everyone soon realized Jessie was not someone whom they could bully and for them to go against Stardom was a foolish move on its own.

The two actresses who tried to slander her even lost all the work they had, including dramas, films, and product ambassadorship. They realized all too late this was the price for slandering Jessie. At the same time, they wondered who Jessie’s backer was. They were too powerful.

And so, all the female celebrities could do nothing but watch as Jessie made her way up the ladder. The actors who used to harass her started getting worried. They were scared she would get back at them.

Back in every film that she had worked on, all the actresses hated Jessie. Even B- and C-listers lorded her around while taking pleasure in bullying her. They thought she was shining too brightly for a stuntwoman. She even outshone them, the protagonist, and it irked these people.

Jessie went to class as usual. It was the eighth day, and the class would come to an end soon. Naturally, everyone was envious of her, especially Xandra. Her parents were stars. She thought she was born special, but from the moment she met Jessie, she lost to Jessie in everything.

The final class came to an end, and Jessie emerged from the classroom, but Xandra stopped her.

“Hold it. I know you have a powerful backer, but I also know how you got so far, Jessie.”

“Stop with the slandering.” Jessie was starting to get annoyed.

“Is it slander, though? I have looked into your case. You grew up in an orphanage, and you don’t have any connections. You must have paid the price for someone to support you so much. I heard you slept with all of the Stardom’s top management,” Xandra said. It was a lie, but she said it anyway.

Jessie’s face was red with fury. That was insulting. Coldly, she warned, “Shut it, Limerick. Another word and I will sue you for slander.”

“Oh, I’m so scared. Do you think you can fool me with an act, you no-name amateur? You’re a joke. Quit while you still can.” Xandra crossed her arms, looking at Jessie like she was nothing but a peasant.

“Yeah, I’m not born to a family of actors like you, but it’s a shame that you didn’t inherit your parents’ talent for acting,” Jessie mocked.

“W-What? How dare you doubt my skills! An amateur like you won’t have the right to doubt my skills!” Xandra was fuming. She had confidence in her acting, and she would not brook any mockery.

“You’d better stay in line, or things will end ugly for you.” Jessie turned around after saying that.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1658 Backfired

“You think Julian would fall for a nobody like you? His tastes are better than this.”

Jessie kept ignoring her. A grey sports car was parked outside. Just as she was about to call her driver, the sports car came over to her. Someone rolled the window down, and a male’s voice came from inside. “Get in, Jessie.”

She looked inside the car, and the sight of Julian shocked her. Why is he picking me up?

Xandra came out just in time to see that, and her eyes went wide with envy. Julian came to pick her up himself? Impossible! I must be seeing things. However, she wouldn’t mistake Julian for anyone else. Not only did he come to pick Jessie up, he even buckled her up. That was something only a boyfriend would do.

Jessie was aware Xandra was watching, but she rolled the window up anyway. Julian drove off into the streets, leaving Xandra alone.

Annoyed, Xandra stomped her foot.

Jessie did nothing, but Xandra felt like she just ate her words.

A while later, Jessie asked, “Where are we going?”

“To meet someone. I’m introducing you to the director and crew,” he answered.

He didn’t say much, but she knew whom he was talking about. Oh, the new film. The big production. The one with big money invested in it. The props, makeup, attire, and VFX are impeccable.

She couldn’t help but feel nervous. “Do you think they’ll acknowledge me?”

Julian smiled. “Don’t worry. I’ve told them about you. They’ll recognize you.”

Jessie had no choice but to attend this appointment. It was held in a club that housed offices and a restaurant. The director, assistant director, editor, and all the important crew members were already there. It was the day they met the film’s lead actress.

Everyone was solemn. After all, casting a newbie who used to be a stuntwoman was a daring act. They had no idea if this film would be a hit. The budget was sky-high. If the film flopped just because of one actress, the loss would be unimaginable.

Right then, an assistant opened the door. “Julian and the leading lady are here.”

“Alright, look alive. Julian has an eye for talent.”

“Just when we finally got ourselves some investors, they are thinking that this won’t work. If it weren’t for me convincing them, we’d have disbanded a long time ago.”

Someone knocked on the door, and in came Julian. Behind him followed a nervous Jessie.

Everyone was stunned the moment they saw her. Most celebrities looked good on screen, but in reality, they looked a lot different. However, Jessie looked better than she did in the videos. She looked alive, innocent, and as clean as untainted stream water.

The director stared at her for a while, and great delight welled within him. Yep. This is the kind of girl I’m looking for.

Everyone else realized why Julian wanted her to be the lead. Her looks were perfect. She’d capture everyone’s eyes the moment she showed up on camera.

“Jessie, this is Vincent Cooper, the director. This is Timmy, the assistant director, and this is Amy, the editor.” He then introduced her to the essential crew members.

Jessie said hi and sat down beside him. She felt pressured when facing these people. Only with Julian beside her could she feel safe.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1659 Talks

Julian held her hand and asked everyone, “So, what do you think about her?”

Everyone’s eyes were on their joined hands, and they felt like laughing. Sir, you’re holding her hand. How do you expect us to comment? If we say anything bad, we’d be getting on your wrong side.

“Jessie fits the description for the lead I have in my mind. Her looks and personality are a perfect fit,” Vincent commented.

It was a true comment. Everyone else heaved a sigh of relief. Julian does have an eye for talent.

Jessie was prettier in real life, and she felt a lot more innocent than most people they met. The look in her eyes was as clear as water.

Jessie blushed a little. She had no idea what to do, and she didn’t even hear what they said. However, she did feel courage brimming within her, and she was certain that it came from Julian. “Mr. Cooper, I’d like to have a go. I’ll try my best to play the role well,” she pleaded.

“Honestly, I wasn’t sure if I should let you play the role at first, but now that I’ve seen you, I know you’re perfect for the job. You’ll do,” Vincent agreed readily.

Everyone agreed as well. “Don’t worry, Jessie. You’re alright.”

She could feel everyone’s friendliness, but she knew this was only possible thanks to Julian.

While they were having dinner, Vincent started talking about the concept of the drama, and Jessie finally found out what the storyline was. It talked about the story of a female disciple without any spirituality trying to save her master, who had deviated from the path. Great battles would ensue from the path this disciple had chosen. It was a story of love, and the visual effects would be stunning. It would also be shown on the silver screen, giving the audience the greatest satisfaction.

“Just a question, Jessie. If we have to film any intimate scenes, how far can you go?” Vincent suddenly joked.

She froze for a few moments. “Um…”

Julian shot Vincent a look. “This is her first film.”

“You’d be okay with a kissing scene with Julian, wouldn’t you?” Vincent joked further.

She stared at the table with a face that was as red as an apple. And then, she nodded adorably. “Yes.”

Everyone burst into laughter and looked at Julian. To their surprise, they saw him looking at Jessie, his eyes filled with smug delight.

“Alright, stop teasing her,” Julian said.

With that, everyone stopped with their jokes, including the big shots. Though, they had gotten one thing clear: Jessie was important to Julian. Now, they would never underestimate her. They were sure she would make a name for herself in the industry.

After dinner, Vincent gave Jessie the script so she could figure out how the character would think, act, and move. The preparations were already nearing their end, and shooting would start anytime soon. They also would be releasing some news to the public.

“Jessie, let’s take a group photo,” Vincent said.

She sat on the sofa, and everyone in the room got in front of the camera. It was everyone but Julian, who sat this one out.

“You should stay out, Julian. You showing up might cause an uproar,” Vincent remarked teasingly.

No matter what the scandal was, every single one that included Julian would only end one way: Julian would be fine, but the female celebrity would be relentlessly attacked by his fans.

After taking a photo with the group, Julian took Jessie home. She was a lot more at ease on the way back. The crew’s recognition was important to her. A newbie like her needed recognition the most.

“Would you really take it even if there’s a kissing scene?” Julian suddenly asked.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1660 The Script

Jessie was listening to the music and enjoying the view. The question came out of nowhere, and it made her blush. “Will the scene get really intimate?”

“For you, yes.” Julian looked at her.

Her heart skipped a beat. So, there’s going to be something more intimate than a kiss? But I’m going to act with him anyway, so… She decided to go all in. “I’m fine. I’m ready.”

The man beside her stayed silent. Does she have to ready herself even when she’s acting with me? Is she that reluctant?

“Just asking, but whenever you have any intimate scenes, do you shoot it yourself, or do you use a stand-in?” She looked at him. He used to have a few kissing scenes in his works. Most of his works were heavily story-based, but kissing scenes were unavoidable.

Julian was speechless. Why is she asking that? Is she jealous, or is she just curious?

I guess he’s not answering that. She then smiled sheepishly. “Sorry. Just asking. You don’t have to answer if you don’t want to.”

“Stand-ins,” he answered.

Jessie blinked. Really? Well, it looks like I’ll have to watch his films again. Carefully this time. I’d like to see if he actually had stand-ins to do those scenes.

“I’m a clean freak. Sort of. So, all intimate scenes are done by stand-ins,” he answered seriously.

She believed him. Then, she continued to ask, “So, are you going to use stand-ins this time, too?”

Once again, Julian was speechless.

Oops, did I go too far with the question? She quickly resolved the awkward situation. “It’s fine. I’m fine with stand-ins if that’s what the story needs.”

“No. This time, I’m going to do it myself.” He stared at her.

There’s no way I’m letting her do the kissing scene with the stand-in, Julian thought. Jessie blushed and turned away as a smile formed on her lips. She couldn’t help it. The happy feeling that she felt was too great for her to keep under control. She coughed lightly before responding, “Is that so? I’ll be counting on you, then.”

My on-screen first kiss is still yet to be given away. We’re both doing it for the first time here. You might end up teaching me something instead.

They had finally reached the Silverstein Residence. Jessie got out of the car and bent down a little. “Drive safely.”

“Alright. You should head inside now.” He waved at her. “I’ll go after you go into your house.”

She then went into the residence. Though, she remained standing by the entrance to see him off before going into the living room. Her parents were waiting for her. Maggie had some fruits and soup prepared for her. Jessie had lost a bit of weight, and Maggie wanted to make sure she stayed healthy.

After Jessie finished the soup, she said, “Dad, Mom, I’m going back to my room. Gotta read through the script.”

“Sure. But don’t stay up too late. Health comes first.”

“I know.” She happily went upstairs and entered her room. She sat in a comfy position and started reading through her script seriously. It was thick and written more like a captivating novel than a script.

The characters and scenes were vividly illustrated. She could imagine them as she read on, and eventually, she was engrossed in them. As she imagined the scenes and saw how she and Julian would interact, she was filled with a bubbly feeling.

It was a story set in a mythical world. Celestial Realm’s top god fell into the path of evil for his beloved. Without their leader, the realm fell into disarray. The three Ancient Gods managed to procure a sliver of the High Imperial’s beloved’s soul and remade her body. However, to everyone’s surprise, the girl grew up to be someone without any spirituality.

Jessie noticed that the girl was an optimistic, fearless, and adept soul. She might have no talent in cultivation, but she cared about the world and would always try to save it.
