Chapter 1590 Surprise Fireworks Display
Once she finished her explanation, she hugged the man’s waist while saying joyously, “To be honest, I was extremely shocked and touched when you stepped on stage today.”
Julian rubbed his forehead against hers while reassuring her, “Wherever you are, that’s where I want to be!”
In the meantime, the public relations department at Gilmore Corporation was working overtime today, helping Julian manage the comments. Since he had already announced his relationship, they could only give their relationship more publicity.
What was more, Julian’s action of ditching his campaign to make a sudden appearance at Jessie’s today was enough to touch many. Soon, someone posted his schedule of the day, proving that he loved her dearly and leading the fans to accept them.
As expected, Gilmore Corporation’s public relations department was phenomenal at directing public opinion and managed to convince his fans. Many of them had even begun giving the couple their blessings.
Moreover, the movie was due to premiere on the first day of the new year, and the entire production crew felt like they were sitting on pins and needles. During that time, it was said that Vincent was admitted to the hospital because of insomnia, which stemmed from his awful mood and anxiety.
On New Year’s Eve, Julian and Jessie had a family dinner at the Gilmore Residence before heading to the hospital to visit him.
By now, Vincent had given up and decided not to panic about it. However, this was the first movie that rendered him insecure in his years of directing. He had prepared numerous special effects that would be used in the movie before it even began shooting, which showed how much dedication he put into this film.
“Julian, I’m only left with one belief—to believe you. I trust that with your popularity, the ticket sales won’t be terrible.” He held Julian’s hand while saying that.
“Don’t worry! If the ticket sales are awful, I’ll put in a good word for you so that Louie won’t fire you,” Julian teased.
Jessie, who was beside them, was originally feeling sympathetic toward Vincent, but she could not help but burst out laughing when she heard what Julian said. “You’ll know the answer tomorrow, so just go on with your day!” she assured him.
At night, Julian brought Jessie to a place where they could enjoy the countdown. The two enjoyed the fireworks illuminating the sea with candlelight and red wine.
Later in the night, she saw someone posting the same fireworks on social media, to which the comments were asking, ‘I heard that this fireworks display was arranged by a wealthy man to make his girlfriend happy. I’m curious who that lucky woman is and how she feels having someone light fireworks above the sea for an hour.’
When Jessie read the comment, she could not help but think, I didn’t expect I could enjoy the fireworks a rich man prepared for his girlfriend!
Feeling curious, she ran over to Julian and showed him her phone. “How did you know there would be a rich man lighting the fireworks for his girlfriend there? Was it your friend?”
After watching the video, he went silent for a moment before answering, “The rich man is me, and you’re the girlfriend.”
She was speechless and stunned for a few seconds. What? It was for me all along?
“So, it’s you! Are those fireworks for me?” Jessie was touched beyond words. She would never have dreamt that Julian was such a romantic and that she could be part of the experience. Smooch! With a smile, she hugged and kissed him. “Thank you, my dear Mr. Gilmore.”
He reached out to embrace her. “Now that the fireworks are done, shouldn’t we be heading home so that you can thank me properly?”
She knew he was up to no good just by looking at him, so she nodded shyly. “Sure, let’s go home!”
Inside the car, she smiled sweetly when she found more videos on social media and saw that many were jealous of the woman who received the fireworks display. The one being envied by all is me!
Right after midnight, the cinemas showing Julian’s latest movie were packed, and the box office sales were consistently on top in just one day. To that, Vincent was utterly delighted. Not only was I worried for nothing, but the movie is also a hit with a high review score!
