Chapter 145
Kendrick’s wife really liked Celeste. The girl was beautiful herself, but she was always generous with compliments when she met others. People easily
liked her.
“Still so sweet-talking. Sit down and rest first. Kendrick always says he’ll be here soon, but I’ve been waiting for an hour. Did he make you work overtime again?” Kendrick’s wife said.
Kendrick quickly denied it.
Celeste laughed and said, I’m just helping out. He couldn’t make me work overtime even if he wanted to.”
As she spoke, she handed over the bag in her hand, “I bought some cakes to bring for the kids.”
“Inviting you to lunch and you’re giving a gift in return?” Although she said this, Kendrick’s wife didn’t refuse. “Are you two hungry? Should I order dessert first?” Kendrick asked.
Kendrick’s wife whispered. “Another friend is coming later. I thought we could wait for him to arrive before ordering the main dishes, is that okay?”
Celeste was taken aback, not knowing they had invited someone else, and felt a little uncomfortable.
Because they invited a friend she might not know, it could be a bit awkward to eat together.
But she still said, “It’s fine. I’m not hungry yet”
Seeing her unease, Kendrick explained, “He’s an old classmate of mine and a small-time director. I know you’ve been wanting to act recently, but I’m not familiar with that side of things, so I thought I’d introduce you two. Maybe if he has a good role, he can let you try out.”
Apparently, the acting thing was only known to Trisha. Trisha was Kendrick’s loyal fan, so it must have been her who told Kendrick.
Celeste sighed and picked up her wine, “Kendrick, let me toast you.”
She was really grateful for a friend like him, who could still think of pulling resources for her at a time like this.
“It’s a bit early for that toast Kendrick teased her, but still accepted the wine she offered.
The three of them quickly got along well. Kendrick and his wife were very easy-going, and although they argued, Kendrick always yielded to his wife. Their marriage made Celeste envious.
After having some drinks, the awaited guest finally arrived fashionably late.
Kendrick had been watching the door, and when he saw the person, he shouted loudly, “Zach, over here!”
Zach Miller?
Why did this name sound familiar?
He was a director too.
No way, what a coincidence!
Celeste hesitated before turning her head, then froze the next second.
The unknown director mentioned by Kendrick was actually Zach, the director of the TV show she had auditioned for before!
This was the “unknown director”?
How incredible was Zach in the industry? Let’s put it this way, none of the TV shows he had directed had scored below 7 points on the strictest rating website in the country!
A 7-point show was already considered a must-watch classic!
Having an unanticipated meal with director Zach, especially a casual gathering like this, made Celeste somewhat nervous.
Zach caught sight of her and hesitated for a moment before naturally walking over and greeting Kendrick and his wife.
From their conversation, Celeste learned that Zach and Kendrick were classmates at the same school. They had been close friends since school, and Mrs Kidd was Zachs wife’s cousin They had met through Zach’s introduction, so their relationship was naturally even closer
“Zach, let me introduce. This is Celeste She’s famous in the voice acting industry The Celestial Haze I’ve been telling you about is her. She’s beautiful, has a great voice, and is pretty easygoing Celeste, this is my buddy Zach Kendrick said.
