Chapter 493 Simone And Zac’s Extra Story (1)
After resolving the incident with Sage, Bailey invited Simone to enjoy the moon in the backyard one
day, Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Simone entered the yard and saw him sitting on a stone chair. He exuded a pure and ethereal aura,
with a hint of distance, as if he could ascend to immortality at any moment.
Sitting across from him, she glanced at the wine he had prepared on the table. “You seem to be in high
spirits today.”
He poured a glass of wine for her and smiled. “The moonlight is exceptionally beautiful tonight.”
Simone played with her wine glass. “Bailey, do you have something to tell me?”
He looked at her and nodded with a smile. “You’re very astute. I am leaving, and I invited you to join me
in appreciating the moon tonight as a farewell.”
Simone was surprised. “Leaving? Where are you going?”
He whispered, “I’ve discovered a secret at the source of that cursed crack. There is a barrier at the
deepest. part of the crack, which should be a passage to another world. I have heard that our sect
leader accidentally fell from another world to this one, and that world possesses spiritual energy that
we lack here, just like the cultivators described in novels. So, I want to see that world.”
Simone was taken aback. “So that’s the true purpose of that crack.” She believed that the other world
was the world of cultivation, After all, she had experienced so many mini-timelines, and they were all
real.
She asked, “Can you break the barrier and go there?” She knew that even though Bailey had a cold
temperament, deep down, he enjoyed seeking excitement and exploring the world of cultivation
seemed to align with his nature.
Bailey nodded. “I actually crossed over that day and found out that my special physique allows me to
bypass that barrier. Then, I discovered that there is a passage, but only those who have achieved the
Divine State can withstand the gravitational compression, and I have fulfilled all the requirements to
go.”
Simone raised her glass at him with a smile. “I wish you an exhilarating life in that world.”
He clinked his glass with hers. “Thank you, I will” There was nothing here that he was attached to, so
he was eager to venture out. The only thing he cared about a little was Simone, his junior.
After pondering for a moment, he said, “Once you have fulfilled your heart’s desires and achieved the
Divine State, I can have the flying serpent take you through that crack. I suspect its ancestors were
also from there because it possesses a unique aura and can pass through that barrier without any
restrictions.”
Simone was not surprised as she had the same suspicion. She smiled and asked, “What do you think I
desire in my heart?”
Bailey chuckled and said, “Love and friendship. The reason why I can leave anytime is because I have
nothing here that I am attached to, but you have too much that you cannot let go of, so you are not
ready to leave.” He said meaningfully, “I think you can save the struggle, just accept it naturally
according to your heart and be together if you both have feelings for each other. Once he grows old
and passes away naturally, most of your friends would have also passed away. That is when you will
have no worries, and it will be time for you to come find me.”
Simone understood what he meant and chuckled, sighing. I’m not struggling: 1 just did not W involve
him because I have not eliminated the hidden dangers yet. She had always been a person who was
true to her feelings. “Thank you for your insight, and you have a clear perspective. There are indeed
many people and things that I cannot let go of. When the time comes for me to let go naturally, I will
come find you.” She looked at him with bright eyes. I just hope that you will have already made a name
for yourself and will protect me when the time comes.”
Bailey grinned. “No problem.”
They enjoyed the moonlight and chatted while drinking until the next day when Bailey got up and left
just as the sun was rising.
After Simone watched him leave, she returned to her room and took a nap. Then, she went to the
studio and finished the pending work. Besides, she also brought in a few managers to secure good
resources for
her artists.
As a well-known top geomancy master in the industry, many people sought her help with fortune-
telling- Additionally, the artists signed by her studio were carefully selected; having a good character
was the most basic requirement, followed by ambition and a willingness to improve their acting skills,
which put directors arease. As a result, Simone no longer needed to actively seek resources because
they simply came to her.
After having her fill playing with the little puppy, Gwen returned and dedicated herself wholeheartedly to
work, and the studio continued to grow and thrive.
One day, Simone received a call from Zac. “Simone, I am back. Shall we have dinner tonight?”
Simone smiled. “Sure!”
Zac had been filming out of town recently, and she had visited the set a few times. As long as he was
shooting night scenes or she had something to do, they would message cach other every nigh
At the appointed time, Zac came to pick her up in his car, and they went to a very private restaurant.
Being the considerate person that he was, Zac removed the fish bones for her.
“Simone, I have accepted an offer to be a mentor on a music live show and need to invite a friend to
assist me. The show starts next month, and I would like to invite you. Are you available?” He had
discussed this with Simone before and knew that she had been busy with studio work lately and had no
personal commitments, which was why he wanted to invite her.
Simone smiled and replied, “I have some free time recently, so I can accompany you.”
Zac’s eyes lit up. “That’s great. If the director finds out that I have invited you to assist, he will probably
be
Simone was now a popular top-tier, actress in the entertainment industry, and any show she
participated in attracted a huge audience.
Of course, his invitation to Simone was not solely because he valued her popularity but simply because
he wanted to work with her.
After thinking for a moment, hac extended another invitation. “How about we go on a vacation together
next week?” This time, just the two of them
O
Simone could easily see through his intentions, but she was happy to indulge him. “Sure.”
The smile on Zac’s face grew even brighter. “Where would you like to go? Let’s plan the itinerary
together
Simone pondered for a moment. “How about going to an island? A friend of mine recommended a
beautiful foreign island that is less crowded after her recent trip.
He smiled and replied, That sounds great. Let’s go there. As long as he could spend time and have fun
with her, he would enjoy any destination. So, they made their flight and hotel bookings together.
Five days later.
Both of them were well-known celebrities. Although Zac wasn’t concerned about being photographed,
he worried about it affecting Simone. To avoid being easily recognized, he dressed up in a way that
would make him less noticeable before driving to pick up Simone and going to the airport.
On the other hand, Simone wasn’t particularly worried about being photographed either, but she
appreciated his thoughtfulness because he always prioritized her. This was something Leon couldn’t
provide, and she always feared burdening him instead.
After arriving at the hotel, they took some time to rest. In the afternoon, they had a buffet together and
then took a stroll along the beach. The sunset was beautiful, and Zac intentionally brought his camera
to capture many stunning photos of Simone.
“Do you want to go out to sea? I have a yacht here. We can watch the sunrise on the sea tomorrow
morning. When they decided to go on this trip, he arranged for someone to purchase and redecorate a
yacht.
Seeing the anticipation on his handsome face, Simone chuckled and answered, “Sure, I’ve never spent
a night out at sea before.”
Zac knew how to operate a yacht and even obtained a license for it. The two of them didn’t bring
anyone else, and he piloted the yacht and took Simone out to sea.
Simone admired the newly decorated yacht and the variety of food, realizing that he had prepared
everything in advance. As they stopped in a specific area of the sea, she looked up and saw the starry
sky and the shimmering waves, which painted a breathtaking view.
Meanwhile, Zac grilled skewers on a rack, and she noticed that he only grilled the ones that she liked.
Since she had never told him her food preferences, it seemed that he had observed and discovered
them himself. Indeed, it sure felt wonderful to be cherished and cared for.
After finishing the skewers, they each returned to their rooms to freshen up. Simone dried her hair after
showering and noticed the beauty of the night sky, which inspired her to do something. She put on a
camisole nightgown and went to the bow of the ship to admire the moon.
After a while, Zac emerged with a bottle of red wine and two glasses. He shook the wine glass and
siniled, asking, “Simone, care for a drink?” Tonight, he was prepared to confess his feelings and was
very nervous.
Simone reached out and took the glass, saying, “I’ll have one”
Then, they sat side by side on the deck, sipping their wine. After a few glasses, Zae held his wine glass
tightly, turned his head, and gazed at Simone affectionately. “Simone, I like you.” Nervously and
anxiously, he asked, “Will you be my girlfriend?” This was his first confession.
