Chapter 136 Some Were Happy, while Others Were Worried
The next day.
Suzy opened her eyes and saw a handsome face. She was trapped in a warm embrace, surrounded by a familiar aura.
Looking at Evan’s face, Suzy was stunned for two seconds. After looking at him for an unknown period of time, the man suddenly opened his eyes with a faint smile.
“Have you seen enough?”
Suzy immediately pushed him away, her voice filled with indifference.
“The great Mr. Hughes still has the hobby of jumping into others” balconies?”
“I didn’t open the window. I picked the lock.”
Suzy was speechless.
Just as she was about to get up, Evan pulled her into his arms again. His voice was hoarse.
“Don’t move. Sleep for a while more.”
Suzy wanted to break free from his embrace, but when she saw the slightly tired look on the man’s face, she couldn’t bear to do so. After a while, Evan’s calm breathing came, and she gradually fell asleep in his arms.
When she woke up again, it was already noon.
There was no one next to her pillow and the sound of running water came from the bathroom. Suzy was about to get out of bed when the phone next to her rang.
It was Nina. She picked it up.
“Miss Carters, Dreaming Pictures has sent someone to grab the role that we have discussed before!”
“… Fine.”
Suzy raised an eyebrow and smiled. That would depend on whether Earl had the ability to negotiate or not.
Suzy’s voice was not worried at all. Nina, on the other hand, became anxious. “Miss Carters, I don’t know who leaked the news, but the outside world is saying that our Starlight Pictures have offended some bigwig and are about to go bankrupt.”
“Miss Carters, just lower your head to coax Mr. Hughes! If this goes on…”
She was afraid that they would really go bankrupt.
The corners of Suzy’s mouth twitched. “All right, don’t be hasty.”
After hanging up, Evan, who had just washed up, walked out of the bathroom.
Their eyes met and he subconsciously asked, “What’s wrong?”
Suzy leaned against the headboard and glanced at him nonchalantly. “The role in my company is gone. Now, the outside world is saying that Starlight Pictures is going to go bankrupt. Mr. Hughes is really powerful!”
Hearing that, Evan walked over and touched her head. His voice was magnetic.
“Do you still dare to lie to me in the future?”
Suzy harrumphed and pushed his hand away before getting out of bed.
Evan took out his phone and dialed Alan’s number.
After washing up, they drove to a nearby restaurant.
Evan had received Ervin’s message during dinner.
“The results of the blood test are out.”
Suzy’s hand holding the chopsticks froze slightly. She pursed her lips and did not speak.
“Fluid-K has mutated factors.”
In other words, the poison in her body had mutated? Suzy lowered her gaze and asked without a change in expression, “How much time do I have left?”
Seeing that Evan was silent, Suzy’s voice became a little colder. “Don’t hide it from me.”
Evan looked at her and bit his lips. “Half a year.”
“… Fine.”
How to put it? Suzy seemed less afraid of death now. Let nature take its course.
“I will find Doctor Silas as soon as possible.”
Suzy looked up and met Evan’s gaze. “I don’t want to hear you say that.”
“Then I won’t talk about it.”
Suzy was speechless.
After dinner, she finally couldn’t help glaring at him. “Evan, you haven’t figured out how to explain those words to me since it’s been the whole night.”
Evan pursed his lips and explained calmly to her, “That grandfather is my enemy and has always had designs on the Hughes Group. I said those words over the phone that day because I didn’t want to implicate you.”© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
If Mr. Old Smith, who was far away in North City, heard this, he might directly get angry.
Suzy’s eyes narrowed slightly when she heard this.
She didn’t believe it.
After coldly responding with an “oh”, she got up directly, picked up the car keys, and left the restaurant.
Evan got up and chased after her.
“I’m going to the company. Don’t follow me.”
After that, Suzy quickly got in the car and drove away.
Evan, who was standing by the roadside, was speechless.
That was his car.
A trace of helplessness flashed in his eyes. Suzy was too smart and not easy to fool. In the end, he dialed Alan’s number and asked him to pick him up.
Suzy naturally knew that this was Evan’s car. Now she had avenged him for leaving her by the roadside several times, and she felt a little relieved.
When she arrived at Starlight Pictures and opened the office door, Sean was sitting inside. When he saw her, he immediately got up.
“Tommy finally left my villa with his men. Suzy, let’s run away! The money in my account is enough for the rest of our lives. Where do you want to go? I’ll book the ticket right away. We don’t need to care about the company or the Carters family.”
Suzy was speechless.
She walked to the office chair and sat down, crossing her arms in front of the chest and curling her lips casually. “Based on your speed, you will be stopped by Evan’s men before you get to the airport.”
Sean frowned slightly and thought about it for two seconds. “How about we take the ship? I’ll arrange it right away if we change our strategy.”
“”Sean…….”
Before Suzy could finish her words, Nina opened the door excitedly.
“Miss. Carters, we got all the roles back! So were the endorsements. Flora’s audition was approved! And Victor…”
Sean looked at Suzy in despair.
“You’ve reconciled with Evan?”
“Yes.” Suzy nodded.
Some were happy, while others were sad.
The person who was worried was naturally Sean. It turned out that he had become a big grudge again and was almost beaten up by Tommy!
Fuck!
Sean left the office in a huff.
Suzy smiled. During this period of time, she had been suppressed by all kinds of things. Even if the Fluid-K had not been detoxified, her mood was indeed very relaxed.
Nina came forward with a happy expression. “Oh, right, Miss Carters, International Film Media is going to start filming for a modern drama. They want Rachel to play the female lead.”
International Film Media was a top-notch team producer company.
Suzy was quite familiar with this company.
Not long after in her previous life, the president of International Film Media took a fancy to Teresa and wanted her to marry him. However, he was already in his forties. He was extremely greasy and had two sons.
Suzy was nearly betrothed with him.
Thinking of this, she narrowed her eyes slightly. The Carters family wanted to plot against her at the banquet, so she naturally had to give them a gift in return.
She glanced at Nina and said slowly, “Go tell International Film Media’s people that Rachel can act in their drama. They don’t need to pay for her film. I’ll give it to Rachel myself. In the future, Starlight Pictures can have priority in cooperating with them.”
“Ah?” Nina was stunned.
There was no remuneration. Wouldn’t that be a great loss?
Suzy smiled indifferently. She had no lack of money and only wanted to see retribution befall the Carters family.
As she thought of this, she instructed Nina on what to do.
The video-shooting outside the ancient town was basically over. At present, the filming was done in the film studio built on the third floor of Starlight Pictures.
For the entire day, Suzy was filming in Starlight Pictures.
Compared to her comfort, Dreaming Pictures was not so comfortable.
The excitement at noon didn’t last long before everything Starlight Pictures had lost was returned, but Dreaming Pictures” side was in trouble.
What they had just gotten from Starlight Pictures” hands and many artists” roles were gone.
Earl knew very well that this was Evan’s doing.
While he was in a hurry, he received a call from Mr. Lloyd from International Film Media.
