The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Serena opened a bottle of mineral water and inserted a straw before handing it to Claire's lips. "Listening to you talk with that reporter just now, I thought you were the kind of young person who stands up for the entire dance industry. Even I, a cold-hearted woman, wanted to applaud you."
Claire glanced at her indifferently. "What? Are you saying that my acting was too fake?"
"No, I'm praising you. But I'm still curious, why did you choose an unknown reporter? I mean, there were so many reputable reporters fighting to interview you, yet you turned them all down, saying you were waiting for a more opportune time. The way I see it, Rita is a newcomer in the industry. She doesn't even have much influence in New Capital Times. Aren't you lowering your standards by letting her interview you?"
Claire touched up her lipstick and smirked disdainfully. "It's true that Rita doesn't have much influence to interview me, and her status doesn't quite match mine. But she is a Russell, which makes her have the highest status among the reporters who wanted to interview me. Believe me when I say she'll do her best to publish the interview today. And the way she got excited about what I said just now, she'll definitely put a lot of effort into following my news. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone? We won't even need to worry about how to promote me after this."
Serena nodded thoughtfully. "But what about your last answer about your criteria for choosing a partner? Won't Mister Sherman be angry if he hears about it?"
Mentioning Sherman finally brought a different expression to Claire's face, beyond her usual aloofness. She coquettishly whined, "That's exactly my plan! I want to make him jealous so that he won't think I don't' have any other choice than him. Plenty of other men want to date me."
"But no matter how outstanding those men are, you only have eyes for Mister Sherman." Serena chuckled. "Actually, asking Mister Sherman to help with your publicity should be a piece of cake for him."
"You don't understand. It's better for things to be straightforward between us. At least until I've completely won his heart over. I can ask for his help, but I cannot let him I think I'm the type of woman who is with him for fame and fortune. I'm different from those other women out there."
Claire's expression visibly soured at the thought of so many women vying for Sherman's attention.
"You mentioned that Sherman attended the Russells' dinner party last time. When did he leave?"
"Hmm... Mister Sherman didn't stay long. He left after about an hour. But we all know the nature of dinner parties like that. Who in the circle doesn't want to curry favor with Mister Sherman? Those with daughters would do anything to marry them off to him! So you better hurry up."
Clair had arranged for people to keep an eye on Sherman's movements ever
since a long time ago. She had to ensure that every move Sherman made was within her control.
