Chapter 565
Eliana was stunned to hear someone mention Hodge again.
She couldn’t help but think back to when Hodge was in a car accident. No matter what she did, she could never forget the image of Hodge covered in blood and gasping for air.
Hodge wasn’t a good person. When the Pierce Group went bankrupt, Hodge was one of the people responsible for making that happen. However, even though he was a terrible person, it still disturbed her to see him that way.
After staying quiet for a few moments, Eliana told him where Hodge was.
“Mr. Wallace, I did meet up with Hodge after I got home. Something terrible happened to him. He was in a car accident and is supposed to be still in the hospital now.”
She decided not to mention that Hodge committed some wrongdoings. Eliana felt like Hodge got his punishment. She didn’t need to destroy Brevard’s good impression of him.
“A car accident?” Brevard exclaimed with a stricken face. “Hodge and I were among the senior employees of the Pierce Group. I never saw him around after the Pierce Group went bankrupt. Ever since I always thought he was more capable than I was. I thought he would go abroad to enjoy the rest of his life. How could things end up this way? Sometimes, fate conspires against people!”
His words were filled with regret and nostalgia.
Eliana was quiet as she listened to him. After some time, she couldn’t bear to see him so upset and said, “Mr. Wallace, I know which hospital Hodge is staying. Would you like to visit him with me one of these days?”
She decided to put everything in the past. There was no need to be ruthless to Hodge any longer.
Brevard sighed wearily and agreed.
Nana had been distracted all day ever since she left Eliana and the kids. She always felt restless whenever she was at work.
Would Rosamond blame Eliana and make things difficult for her?
The more Nana thought about the matter, the more worried she became. There was nothing more she wanted to do than to finish her work and go back home.
Time passed, and she slowly finished her work.
Soon the model agent came over to gather all the models for an announcement. “Thank you for all of your hard work. We can leave earlier than expected today,” she announced.
Many models cheered, but some weren’t as thrilled with the news. novelbin
“What about our wages? Will we get deductions?”
The agent gave them a mysterious smile and said, “Don’t worry about your wages. We’re expecting some guests to visit soon, and we should take good care of them. I promise you’ll get a lot more money than you expect.”
The models seemed to understand the meaning behind the words, and some were eager to have the chance.
Nana was the only one disgusted by the news.
They wanted them to play around with the rich men.
She witnessed something similar happen a few years ago and had no interest in participating.
Nana and the other uninterested models were about to leave when their agent’s words made them pause.
“This is not just a simple dinner party. The event will decide the model arrangements for the entire show next year. I heard the news that some influential directors will attend. Be smart and stay vigilant. One of you might get chosen to become an actress.”
Could she become an actress again someday?
Nana couldn’t help but recall the glorious days of her past.
At the time, she was young and naive. Fame came effortlessly to her, but she lost her career because of a man who betrayed her later.
She had experienced hardships of the industry and had to rebuild her career from scratch again. Nana knew better than anyone how difficult it was to get a chance to enter that industry.
If she let that opportunity slip between her fingers, would she get another chance in the future?
Nana hesitated and was lured by the possible fame and fortune.
Eliana could gamble all her money for the factories. Why should she back down?
Nana gritted her teeth and decided to fight for her career one last time.
She followed the model agent to a strange bar and entered a private room.
When she opened the door, she immediately spotted a wine-colored sofa positioned at the center of the room. A young man lounged at the middle of the seat.
The moment Nana laid eyes on him, her heart skipped a beat, and a shiver ran down her body.
The man in front of her was none other than Huey!
