“Claire, the exhibition is about to open. We’ve invited many international partners this time — we can’t afford any mistakes. I worked so hard to get here from being a nobody. This international show is my first step onto the global stage!”
“You’ll be happy for me, right?”
I lowered my head, sarcasm flashing in my eyes.
Ethan had built his reputation with my resources, gaining fame domestically.
But without breaking into the international market, he would eventually fade away.
Three years ago, when my mother fell ill, she needed a bone marrow match to survive.
The transplant was successful, but she still passed away six months later.
“I poured the entire studio’s resources into supporting you. You even saved my mom’s life. How could I not be happy for you? Ethan, isn’t this what you’ve been waiting for? You’ve worked for years for this day. Why would you even ask me that?”
Hearing my words, Ethan finally relaxed and tried to pull me into his arms.
“It’s just that facing the international market for the first time makes me nervous. You just had a miscarriage and still helped me check the venue — you must be exhausted.”
