Becoming The Bigshot's Only Love After Breaking Her Engagement-Chapter 590: The CEO’s Desperate Pursuit in the Flames of Regret
"Sorry, the number you dialed is temporarily unavailable."
Wan Tianning called Lin Yue, but unexpectedly heard this message.
Could it be that he’s not answering my calls?
Wan Tianning felt a bit uneasy.
When Lan returned, she quickly told her to contact Wen Qi.
Lan’s eyes flickered as she said, "How am I supposed to contact him? We usually don’t have any contact."
"Alright, there’s no need to act in front of me. Don’t I already know about the two of you? You two are dating," Wan Tianning exposed on the spot.
Lan widened her eyes in surprise, "Miss Wan, how did you know?"
"Tch, I’m not blind. Whenever you two are together, there’s obvious flirting. Even though there are a few people in between, your eyes are practically glued to each other. How could I miss that? Quickly contact Wen Qi and ask what Lin Yue is doing and why he’s not answering my calls."
"Okay, I’ll call him right away." Lan took out her phone.
However, after a brief conversation, she hung up the call and awkwardly told Wan Tianning, "Miss Wan, Wen Qi said he doesn’t know either. President Lin hasn’t been at the company recently, and he can’t get in touch with him. He has no idea where he’s gone."
"What? Can’t reach him? Could something have happened?" Wan Tianning was startled.
Lan quickly reassured her, "That shouldn’t be the case! Miss Wan, don’t scare yourself like that."
"What do you mean scared myself?" Wan Tianning hurriedly said, "He’s a wealthy man; surely he’s under the watchful eye of many. I can’t reach him, and neither can his assistant. Doesn’t that mean something’s up? No, I need to book a flight back immediately."
"Miss Wan, today is the award ceremony. Even if you aren’t the Best Actress, the film is still nominated. Leaving now would definitely lead the media to exaggerate and misinterpret the situation, saying you’re fleeing out of shame." Lan quickly interjected.
Wan Tianning said, "I don’t care how they exaggerate or misinterpret; what’s more important is Lin Yue, not their interpretations. It’s obvious Lin Yue is more important."
With that, she pushed Lan aside and was about to book a flight herself.
Lan was anxious but came up with a brilliant idea.
"Miss Wan, even if you book a flight now, it will take a day to get back. You might as well call Miss Ye; she might have a solution. After all, Mr. Zhan is the most influential person in Jiangcheng."
"Right, you’ve reminded me." Wan Tianning suddenly realized, "I can call my sister first and ask her what’s going on."
Saying this, Wan Tianning took out her phone and called Ye Ningwan.
Ye Ningwan was surprised, "Missing? Impossible. He just came over yesterday to see the baby, bought toys for the baby, he hasn’t gone missing."
"Really? Sis, did he really visit you and the baby yesterday?" Wan Tianning asked joyfully.
Ye Ningwan said, "Of course it’s true. Why would I lie to you? If I couldn’t reach him, I would have had people look for him. He was definitely here yesterday, along with Ye Shao. If you don’t believe me, you can call Ye Shao."
"Okay, I’ll call Ye Shao then," Wan Tianning said.
Ye Ningwan: "..."
"You little girl, you really don’t trust me."
"It’s not that I don’t trust you. I’m just too worried. You have no idea how concerned I am. I can’t reach him, and Assistant Wen also says he can’t reach him. I’m very anxious," Wan Tianning said.
"Alright, alright, go ahead and call him! So you can put your mind at ease," Ye Ningwan said.
Wan Tianning hung up and called Ye Shao.
Sure enough, Ye Shao also confirmed seeing Lin Yue yesterday.
Wan Tianning angrily hung up the phone and asked Lan, "Lan, what is Lin Yue trying to do? He’s perfectly fine, so why won’t he take my calls? And why did Wen Qi lie to you?"
"Wen Qi lied to me?" Lan was surprised.
Wan Tianning squinted her eyes and asked, "Did he lie to you, or are you lying to me?"
Lan was embarrassed and quickly smiled awkwardly, "He definitely lied to me. Don’t worry, Miss Wan, I’ll contact him right away and give him a stern scolding. Daring to deceive me, he must be tired of living."
As she spoke, Lan pretended to make a phone call with her phone and left the area.
Watching her leave, Wan Tianning furrowed her brows again.
Why did she feel like it wasn’t Wen Qi deceiving Lan, but rather Lan colluding with Wen Qi to deceive her?
Could it be Lin Yue’s instruction?
But why?
Thinking about the rumors between her and Director Li Zhuo made Wan Tianning’s face turn green.
Could Lin Yue really have believed those rumors, thinking she had something with Director Li Zhuo?
Wan Tianning felt awful, but there was nothing she could do since she couldn’t reach Lin Yue by phone.
The award ceremony time had also arrived. The makeup artist had finished her makeup, and she donned the already-prepared outfit to go with Director Li Zhuo.
Although she couldn’t win an award, she could still walk the red carpet.
Walking the red carpet at the Berlin Film Festival is a great honor for many actresses.
This time, she would walk the red carpet with Director Li Zhuo.
She wore a snow-white princess gown, her round shoulders exposed, her hair elegantly pinned up, and a diamond tiara atop her head.
As she appeared, many foreign media cameras were aimed at her.
She was already extremely beautiful, with features that were strikingly gorgeous.
This type of beauty is not only favored by Asians but also greatly admired by Westerners.
Moreover, the dress she wore made her look like a princess walking out of a fairy tale world. 𝓯𝙧𝙚𝒆𝙬𝙚𝒃𝙣𝙤𝒗𝓮𝓵.𝙘𝙤𝙢
"Why do you look unhappy? Is it because you didn’t win the award? I told you, you’re still young, no need to worry about these things. Cheer up, even if you don’t win today, you’ll still be the most eye-catching actress on this red carpet."
Wan Tianning held Director Li Zhuo’s arm and walked slowly. Director Li Zhuo lowered his voice to a whisper that others couldn’t hear, gently coaxing her.
Wan Tianning said, "I’m not unhappy about winning the award; I’m unhappy because I can’t reach Lin Yue. Director Li, has he contacted you?"
"Of course, rest assured, he trusts us," Director Li Zhuo said.
Wan Tianning let out a sigh of relief.
But if he trusts, why won’t he answer her calls?
Nonetheless, she is an actress.
No matter how she felt, she needed to act happy, so she put on a beautiful and elegant smile for all the cameras.
In truth, she wasn’t very interested in walking the red carpet.
But unexpectedly, Director Li Zhuo deliberately lingered for a while, so she had to stay with him.
As a result, the media took even more stunning photos of her.
After the red carpet was the award ceremony.
Sitting down, she watched Milan go on stage to accept her award.
Wan Tianning thought she would feel calm and unperturbed.
But watching Milan hold her trophy and give an emotional speech, especially thanking her husband’s support, her emotions surged.
When Milan raised the trophy and smiled happily, she felt her heart skip a beat.
She also wanted to stand on that podium one day, accept the Best Actress award, and show that same smile.
"Director Li, please quickly prepare for the new movie. I want to be at my absolute best when shooting your film," Wan Tianning softly pleaded.
