Chapter 286: Chapter 296: Suggestions
And when Daniel Harris returned to the Harris Family, he was—blind!
"Listening to me talk about all this, do you find it boring?" she suddenly stopped speaking and asked.
"Not at all." He smiled slightly, "Listening to you talk about these things, I find it very interesting."

The next day, when Mabel Quinn was on set, Grace Yowell came over specifically to apologize, "Mabel, I’m really sorry about yesterday. I had you act as my substitute to distract the reporters and fans, and you almost ended up in danger. Brother Fu and the others were really careless. It’s a good thing Daniel arrived in time yesterday, otherwise, I would never be at ease for the rest of my life. By the way, is your forehead okay?"
"It’s fine." Mabel Quinn smiled slightly.
"That’s good." Grace Yowell breathed a sigh of relief, "Yesterday, I even specifically went to the Harris’s residence to ask Daniel about your condition. I guess Daniel was also worried about my situation yesterday, that’s why he came to the filming location."
Her words were filled with a sense of closeness with Daniel Harris. Mabel Quinn felt a strange sensation rising in her heart. In front of her, Grace seemed to genuinely care for her. But if she really cared about her situation, Grace could have easily called her. There was no need to specifically ask Daniel Harris.
Or perhaps, in truth... Grace wasn’t as concerned as she appeared?
Mabel Quinn couldn’t help but think of some past incidents. Was she overthinking things? Or perhaps Grace wasn’t truly what she seemed to be to her?
"Actually, yesterday, I didn’t expect the media to suddenly hype up the matter between me and Daniel." Grace Yowell explained as if giving an account, "Although some in the circle know about my relationship with Daniel, generally speaking, no one would blabber to the media. Mabel, you won’t blame me for not telling you earlier that the person I like is Daniel, will you?"
"Not at all." Mabel Quinn replied, knowing that celebrities usually keep their relationships private, not to mention that whether to disclose it or not is entirely one’s personal freedom and right.
"I’ve been in love with Daniel since I was 16. It’s been so many years, and this love has only grown deeper. Mabel, you know? To me, Daniel is everything. Everything I strive for today is for Daniel." Grace Yowell’s lips carried a smile, as if confiding her feelings to a close friend. Yet in her half-closed eyes, there wasn’t a trace of warmth, only a coldness.
So, she absolutely wouldn’t give Daniel Harris to anyone else, and she definitely wouldn’t let Mabel Quinn take an ounce away from her!
When Grace Yowell was touching up her makeup, Lillian Scott leaned in and said, "Grace, what’s there to talk about with that Mabel Quinn? She’s just trying to ingratiate herself with you because you’re such a hot star right now. It’s best to have as little contact with people like her as possible."
Grace Yowell smiled and said, "Yesterday, because I had Mabel act as my stand-in to divert the reporters, which resulted in Mabel getting hurt, I had to apologize. Besides, in the entertainment circle, nothing is for certain. Don’t look down on her just because she’s a little screenwriter now. Previously, the director and Orion both told me that her acting seems quite good. Maybe she’ll break into the acting world one day, and who knows, her achievements might surpass ours."
After hearing these words, Lillian Scott felt even more indignant, especially since the director and the male lead, Orion, praised Mabel Quinn’s "acting." It was like a slap in her face. If she hadn’t impulsively said to let Mabel Quinn try acting, there wouldn’t have been that public "performance"!
