Chapter 250 The surrounding people left one by one, afraid to stay. Anthony looked at Lauraine indifferently. He pondered, ‘How did Lauraine go from being weak and well–behaved to this? She has survived countless near- death experiences. She must know the hardships of survival. Yet now, she callously harms others! He lowered his gaze coldly and said in a low, somber voice, “Lauraine, you brought this on yourself!” Then, he left without looking at her again. Lauraine was in a great panic. “Tony!” she exclaimed. Soon Lauraine was escorted out by the crew. Everyone else was silent. After all, it was an internal matter of a wealthy and influential family. They would undoubtedly face dire consequences if they didn’t keep their lips sealed. No one witnessed what had happened to Yvette in the swimming pool, and there were no surveillance cameras. Yvette had no choice but to admit defeat because Lauraine refused to confess. Fortunately, Genevieve spoke up for her. Once Yvette had recovered, she was eager to leave the film crew and avenge Lauraine. Genevieve urged her to calm down, saying, “Lauraine is not stupid. She must be hiding now.” “Are you saying I won’t be able to find her if she decides to hide for the rest of her life,” Yvette snapped. Yvette was infuriated. 1/6 Don’t Be Stupid, Use a Hydraulic Press Machine D Tapter 2 Genevieve thought for a moment and said, “Then let her come to you” “How? Yvette asked si replied, Genevieve looked at Vorft and rigting, “She likes tout! much Yvette cheered, he temples twitching as he thought. What a coincidence! She Really composed herself and nodded. “I see. Then what’s the rush? Finish the recording for the show first!” finally With that, Yvette turned around and leh. Anthony was at the door when Yvette stepped out. Needless to say, she did not have a good impression of Anthony and his sister. “Mr. Hoffman, are you trying to be a doorkeeper here?” Yvette scoffed. Anthony pursed his lips and asked, “Where is Genevieve?” Genevieve came out of the room and looked at him calmly. Anthony took a deep breath and said, “I’m here to apologize on behalf of Lauraine.” He looked at Genevieve, his eyes dull and carrying a dark gleam. He knew Genevieve’s hatred for Lauraine would never wane. Yvette scoffed, “Then you should apologize to me. Why are you apologizing to Genevieve?” Anthony pursed his lips. Genevieve smiled and said, “Lauraine intended to hurt me, but you took the fall for me by wearing my clothes, which led her to mistake you for me.” With that, Genevieve looked at Anthony and said, “Mr. Hoffman, I assume you know everything?” Anthony fell silent. Of course, he knew everything. 2/6 Don’t Be Stupid, Use a Hydraulic Press Machine A Chapter 250 (+5) Brendan had retrieved all the surveillance footage. Although there was no surveillance camera in the swimming pool, there was one in the hallway leading from the pool to the dressing room. He knew exactly what had happened when he compiled all the surveillance footage. Yvette’s eyes widened as she was shocked. Genevieve stood there indifferently and said, “In that case, don’t blame me for what I’m about to do.” Anthony had a grim expression. He didn’t want to clean up the mess for Lauraine anymore. What she had done was outrageous. He worried Genevieve would take it out on him because of Lauraine. Genevieve went to Brendan and urged him to finish the show quickly. She was fed up with everything. The director skipped the stage where the guests had to nurture feelings for each other and proceeded directly to the part where they confessed their feelings. Genevieve sat in a chair with the sea breeze blowing behind her. Her eyes were cold, but her voice was soft as she said, “I’ll never marry again, and there’s no need to nurture any feelings. I’m tired of being a widow. How could I make the same mistake again?” Brendan’s smile was stiff. “Then who is your ideal partner?” he asked. Genevieve tilted her head and smiled sweetly, saying, “Someone like Robert.” Brendan was speechless. ‘I shouldn’t have asked the last question!‘ he thought. Soon, it was Anthony’s turn. He sat there gently. There was a slight sense of distance, but he was no longer domineering. “My ideal partner is always Genevieve,” he said. 3/6 Don’t Be Stupid, Use a Hydraulic Press Machine A Chapter 250 The rest of the crew was shocked to hear those two big shots. ‘Anthony is still in a disadvantaged position, while Genevieve likes the cute Robert, they thought. Yvette approached and smiled as she said, “Who doesn’t like a young and cute man? Are you suggesting we choose Anthony, who is boring and can’t talk for more than a minute?” Genevieve nodded in agreement. Anthony overheard the comment as he happened to pass by, causing a change in his expression. Brendan patted his shoulder and sighed before saying, “Tony, cheer up. You are not bad. If I were a woman, I would choose you!” Anthony pursed his lips and looked at Brendan coldly as he said, “If you were a woman, I wouldn’t like you.” Then he went to look for the director. Brendan was speechless. After Lauraine left, the mood of the crew returned to normal. Yvette and Stella teased each other occasionally, and everyone was used to it. In the evening everyone had a barbecue by the sea. The shooting involved the people from the blind date group. Robert wore a vest and cooked a barbecue for everyone. From time to time, he would start doing gymnastics, which made everyone laugh. Everyone’s attention was on Robert. Anthony stood in the dark and watched him coldly. The director came over and asked nervously, “Mr. Hoffman, are you sure you want to do it?” Anthony’s jaw tightened slightly as he replied, “Yes!” 4/6 Don’t Be Stupid, Use a Hydraulic Press Machine A Chapter 250 The director sighed and told the staff to get ready. Genevieve covered her mouth and giggled, savoring a piece of fruit occasionally. Suddenly, someone shouted, “It’s fireworks!” Genevieve instinctively raised her head and looked at the sea in the distance. Boom! The sound of several explosions echoed across the beach. Over the sea, clusters of fireworks blossomed in the air. The fireworks were more dazzling than the stars. For a moment, Genevieve was stunned. The fireworks didn’t vanish in a flash but transformed into other text shapes: [Genevieve, let’s get married again! Love!] The “Love” shape was conveyed by the shape of a man’s slender thumb and forefinger, which formed the love gesture. Genevieve’s eyes widened in shock. Then she saw Anthony approaching in a custom–made suit, carrying a bouquet of delicate roses. Genevieve clenched her palms. “Anthony, what are you doing?” she asked. Anthony pursed his lips and replied, “This is a surprise for you. I want you to see my sincerity.” Everyone was stunned. “I’m in shock. Can you stop pulling stunts like this?” Genevieve complained. Anthony paused and glanced at Robert. His expression darkened for a moment before he said, “I can give you what they can’t. Genevieve. I hope you try to make me like you.” 5/6 Don’t Be Stupid, Use a Hydraulic Press Machine Chapter 250 He took a deep breath and looked at Genevieve expectantly. He thought to himself, ‘She is silent. She must be touched by my sincerity. Robert is nothing. Once more people are around, she’ll soon realize he’s just average. But I’m truly the special one!‘ Anthony believed that he would move her with his sincerity. Everyone was cheering. “Wow, that’s so sweet!” one said. “Accept him! Accept him!” another suggested. 5/6 SEND GIFT
