Elsie was so annoyed she almost wanted to punch him. “If you don’t start talking properly, I’m seriously hanging up.”
“Alright, alright, I’ll stop messing with you,” William said with a bit more sincerity. “She really does like you. Can’t help it—our little star is just too likable.”
To be honest, hearing that an award-winning actress liked her... that was way more exciting than knowing William did.
Elsie couldn’t stop the corners of her mouth from twitching upward.
She rolled across the bed, thinking about all the effort William had put in. Her voice softened a little.
“Why’d you go all out just to get her to act with me?”
Spending that kind of money to get a top actress to play pretend alongside her—was she really worth that?
“I wanted to cheer you up a bit.”
