"Hey, dear, come over. After I send out the design drafts, let's go out for dinner and shopping together," Julia, wearing white silk pajamas, hung up the phone and waved with a smile to Angela at the door.
Angela hesitated and glanced at Mr. Buck standing in the corridor, who gave her an encouraging look. Then the little girl made up her mind and walked over to the bed, whispering, "Sorry, Mom, I might have to go out alone today."
"You're going out? Where are you planning to go?" Julia smiled and ruffled her hair.
The little girl hesitated, then swiftly dived under the covers. Julia chuckled and said, "Annie? Stop playing around, Annie!"
"I want to find Annie" A muffled voice came from under the covers.
"Then... where is Annie?" Julia asked, somewhat amused.
"She's with Dad in California." The muffled voice continued.
Upon hearing this, Julia first froze, then furrowed her brow. Slowly opening her mouth, she looked around and then at the lump protruding from the blanket, as if unable to believe. She quickly pulled back the covers, and the little figure curled up inside looked at her anxiously and nervously.
"Oh my goodness, you're not Annie... you're... you're Hallie?!" Julia looked at Angela, she suddenly covered her mouth, her eyes sparkling, as if something was about to burst out.
"Cut! Very well done!" a voice suddenly came. Angela, who was just pitiful a moment ago, jumped up in excitement, raised her hands high, and shouted in triumph, then waved and swayed her waist.

After stabilizing her emotions, Julia smiled and pinched Angela's cheek. "Well done, Angela."
"Oh, dear Mom, are you really going to send me away to my father and not want me anymore?" The little girl suddenly hugged her big sister, complaining with a touch of grievance, but her eyes were darting around mischievously, looking very excited.
"Alright, Angie, let's take a break and remove your makeup. We're done filming today, and you can go back to California. You'll get to see Jessica too." Julia hugged her and said.
"Why would you say that? Jessica and I have only been apart for a few days." Angela crawled onto her big sister, she looked puzzled.
"Don't try to hide it from me, dear. Jessica said that you and her have been inseparable since you met, like sugar-coated beans. I can tell by just paying a little attention to your emotions these past few days." Julia shrugged.
"Well, is it because of my poor acting skills, or are you heading in the direction of becoming my mom?" The little girl sighed and rolled to the other side of the bed, propping up her cheek and asking.
"Are you saying I'm getting old?" Big Sister opened her hand and moved it around, asking seriously.
"Oh no! I didn't say anything!" Angela, as if stung, quickly jumped up and ran to the side. Like most girls, she was very ticklish and would go weak, laughing and crying if her armpits were caught. Obviously, Jessica, who knew this, had already given away her secrets to her elder Sister!
Fortunately, at this moment, the makeup artist approached and said, "Miss Roberts, please come over for touch-ups." Julia nodded and gave the little one a look that meant "wait and see" before getting off the bed to follow the makeup artist.

Angela breathed a sigh of relief and considered going to the window to breathe some fresh air, but upon seeing a few figures with cameras outside, she abandoned the idea.
Her chatty Big Sister used to be low-key, but ever since she was recognized by fans while shopping, she quickly attracted a group of reporters from major and minor newspapers. When shooting outside, she couldn't avoid their interference. Fortunately, the reporters were mostly focused on her, and the little girl was hardly harassed. However, she knew she was still quite lucky. If it were three or four years later, the paparazzi's frenzy would likely be many times greater.
At this moment, the sound of a car engine came from outside the window. Angela frowned and discreetly glanced at the window. Sure enough, it was him. It was her blabber mouth that caused this trouble in the first place, accidentally mentioning that her big sister was involved while at the café on Sunday night.
Soon, a person ascended the stairs from downstairs, step by step. He was the owner of this room, and the crew members couldn't stop him. As Julia's manager, Maggie could have stopped him, but she seemed to have been deceived by his well-mannered appearance.
Unlike a few days ago, Frank was now dressed in a casual shirt, and his barely visible smile seemed even more friendly. In his hands, he held three purple tulips as usual.
"Hello, Miss Andrews," he greeted Maggie, who was beside her big Sister as usual. Then, he extended the flowers to Julia and said, "Hello, Miss Roberts. You look as beautiful as ever today."
"Thank you, Mr. Frank." Julia gave a slight smile to Frank's reflection in the mirror since she was in the middle of touch-ups and couldn't accept the flowers as she usually did.
Understanding her situation, Frank placed the tulips on the table in front of her. The three partially bloomed purple flowers slightly opened, with dewdrops on them as if they had just been picked. They possessed an extraordinary beauty. Frank smiled at her again and then went to check on the little one as usual.
"You're really generous. First, you let us use the room for free, and now three tulips every day. If Grandpa knew you had picked the purple tulips he cultivated in his garden and given them away, I wonder if he would take up his cane and beat you." In the corner, the little girl stood with her arms and legs crossed like a pair of compasses, looking at her uncle with a half-smile.
"But you won't tell him, will you, Chris?" Frank squatted down in front of her, wanting to embrace her, but Angela, who was vigilant as always, immediately stepped back and wagged her finger, saying, "Be careful, dear uncle. I'm currently wearing my pajamas, and if you act out of line, I can accuse you of harassment!"

Frank looked helplessly at his niece and patted her head firmly. "What's going on in that little head of yours?"
"Never mind what I'm thinking, but I know what you're thinking. I want to warn you, playboy, don't touch my chatty big Sister!" The little girl said with a sneer.
"Chatty Big Sister? That's a good name. Her lips are indeed very sexy." Frank rubbed his chin and glanced at Julia, who was already done with her touch-ups and had changed her clothes
At this moment, a female staff member walked over and said, "Hey, Angela, Miss Beckinsale is looking for you downstairs."
"Kate is here? Thank you, I'll go!" the little girl exclaimed with joy. She glanced at Frank, who was engrossed in conversation with her talkative Sister, and hurried downstairs alone.
As soon as she reached the first floor, she saw Kate, dressed in a very masculine attire, looking around in the lobby with a small bag on her back. Angela's eyes lit up, and instead of approaching her and saying hello, she sneaked up behind her. With one swift step, she rushed forward and firmly embraced Kate's slender waist.
Kate let out a surprised cry but quickly realized what was happening. She chuckled and grabbed the hands wrapped around her waist, saying, "Angie, this isn't the time to joke around."
However, the little girl behind her didn't react. She just stayed pressed against Kate, and Kate could even feel the warm breath from the small head resting on her back, even through the fabric of her shirt.
"Angie, what's wrong?" Kate asked curiously, releasing Angela's hands and turning around. The little one blushed slightly and seemed hesitant to look at her. As soon as their eyes met, Angela quickly turned her head away.
"Are you okay?" Kate asked with concern, squatting down in front of her. If she had been more attentive, she could have heard Angela's heavy breathing.

But the little girl didn't give her a chance. She shook her head vigorously, as if playing a drum, to indicate that everything was fine. Then she made a pouting expression and changed the subject, "You finally thought of coming to see me. I haven't seen you for days, and I thought you abandoned me."
As soon as the words were spoken, Angela felt a light tap on her head. She quickly held her head, she looked with a puzzled expression at Kate.
"You didn't even tell me the filming location, and here you complain that I didn't come to see you!" Kate withdrew her fist and calmly said.
"Well, how did you find this place then?" Angela asked, confused.
"The newspaper said Miss Julia Roberts was filming here, and then I saw Mr. Frank here, so I took the liberty to come in," Kate explained.
"Well, anyway, I'm glad you came to see me. How have you been lately?" Angela looked closely at her. She looked much better now compared to when they first met.
"I'm doing fine," Kate smiled slightly and looked down for a moment before raising her head again. "I told my mom about my situation, I comforted her, and I returned to school. I'm working hard now, you know? I plan to go to Cambridge."
"Then I wish you good luck. I'm glad you're recovering," Angela said sincerely, gazing into her eyes.
Kate gently stroked Angela's cheek with her slender fingers and then pulled her into an embrace. She whispered, "I love you, Angela."
"I love you too, Kate," the little girl replied softly, hugging her back, and added, "I hope we can always be together."
"Yes, let's hope we will always be together," Kate kissed her cheek and then grinned, "Can you introduce me to Miss Roberts now?"
