My Fair Stunner novel Chapter 370

Chapter 370 Human Blood Bun

In the evening, public relations department worked overtime.

Faye didn’t go home, and a few veterans of public relations department fixed their eyes on Natalia’s team.

Galen bought midnight snack for Faye, knocked the door and brought it in. “Ms. Nash, get something to eat.”

Faye looked away from the screen of computer, “Thanks.”

Galen, “This time Fanny suffered critical hit. Natalia bit what she caught just like a mad dog.”

Faye, “She is taking the opportunity to hype, making her new play a hot topic.”

Galen, “Is she so disgusting?”

Faye opened the meal box, “Didn’t you notice? Every time she tore others, most likely her new play would be on show. Or, she hasn’t shot a scene for a long time and she was afraid that the masses forgot her, therefore she came out to make a presence.”

Galen made a nauseated expression, “Almost like a black sheep of the entertainment industry.”

Faye smiled and didn’t reply.

It was one in the morning. Faye leaned back in her office chair to have a rest. Faye heard the mobile phone ringtone rang stridently while she was half asleep, half awake.

Faye knitted her brows, stretching out for the phone.

When she saw it showed the call reminder of Rex on the screen, a bad feeling raised.

Faye’s fingertip touched the answer key, “Hello, Rex.”

Rex choked out on the other side, “M-M-Ms. Nash, Fanny’s grandma passed away.”

Faye roused, felt wide awake, “What?”

Rex, “Her grandma had just finished the operation and was still weak. Before dawn, several Natalia’s fans appeared unexpectedly in the old lady’s sickroom.”

Rex said something later, but Faye didn’t hear it clearly, she felt her head was buzzing.

She only met Fanny’s grandma once, though the old lady was sleeping at that time, it was impressive.

She still remembered how she looked when Fanny talking about her grandma--a smile on Fanny’s face, light in her eyes.

Faye’s thought wandered for a while, then she retrieved her train of thought and forced herself to calm down. “How is Fanny now?”

Rex, “In the sickroom.”

Faye, “I’m coming.”

Hanging up the phone, Faye picked up the car key on the desk and stepped out of her office quickly.

Witnessing what happened, Galen asked, “Ms. Nash, where are you going?”

Faye answered coldly, “Fanny’s grandma passed away, fix your eyes on Natalia’s team.”

Galen stunned, “Is, is it related to cyber violence?”

Faye didn’t answer, disappeared in the public relations department doorway.

After her leaving, the veterans of public relations department who were on duty all took a cold breath.

Faye drove up to hospital, only to find the sickroom door closed. Rex sat on the corridor bench alone, hands on head.

His usual meticulous hairstyle was pulled in a mess.

Faye, “Rex.”

Rex raised his head at this voice, took a deep breath and stood up. “Ms. Nash.”

Faye looked towards the sickroom door, “Is Fanny still in?”

Rex replied, “Yes.”

Faye, “I’ll see her in the room.”

Rex asked in a cracked voice, "Ms. Nash, may I ask you something?"

Faye stopped walking and turned around, “What’s it?”

Rex smiled bitterly, "Is it very hard for an ordinary person to succeed?"

Faye’s heart tightened, but she answered in a calm and steady voice, “Yes.”

Rex was about to cry with his eyes rather red. “I know, in fact many colleagues in our company laughed at Fanny behind her, saying she was daydreaming. Many people in your department annoyed her too, they thought she always brought troubles to you.”

Faye, “Everybody laughs at Fanny, but everyone is Fanny.”

All of them were common and worthless, however they taunted Fanny about her worthless.

Looking at Faye, Rex fell two lines of tears. At last he covered his eyes with his hand, sat down on the bench behind him and took a deep breath. “Ms. Nash, I’m so sorry. Please, please get in!”

Faye pressed her lips,turned around and pushed the sickroom door, entering the room.

In the room, Fanny knelt down before the sickbed. She was burning paper,at the same time she was humming a song that's out of tune, which sounded like a nursery rhyme.

Noticed that someone in, Fanny moved her head.

Seeing it was Faye, Fanny smiled reluctantly. “Here you are, Ms. Nash.”

Fanny’s face was pale, her eyes were swollen into a seam. When she smiled, it was pathetic and sad.

Faye felt as if something stuck in her throat, she inhaled and said, “Do not grieve too much.”
