“No. I wouldn’t dare get angry at someone with your status, ” Eliza answered calmly.
“That means you want to be angry, but you’re suppressing it, ” Chester looked down at her dark and calm eyes.
Similar. Too similar. It was just like the woman he personally sent to prison.
Eliza was speechless, not understanding what he was pestering her for. “Young Master Jewell, what exactly do you want?”
She was very busy and did not have time to waste on him.
Chester leaned against the door lazily. “Your lounge is very small.”
Eliza pursed her lips. “The crew arranged it.”
“Eliza Robbins…” Chester’s voice lowered, and his eyes darkened slightly. ” I can give you a chance. A chance for you to be someone who stands above others.”
After all, Charity was dead, and Charity’s family was no more. Her only friends were Mireya and Cate, but he could not give anything to those two. Only Eliza…
Although he hated her disorderly past, she was Charity’s only friend. Even after she died, she passed on her dream to Eliza.
Eliza froze and remembered how Chester forcefully kissed her last time, and instantly seemed to understand something.
Her disgust towards Chester reached its peak at that moment.
“I appreciate your kindness, but I have no interest in pestering a man who is about to get married, ” Eliza said as she looked directly at him.
Chester raised his brows, knowing perfectly well that she misunderstood.
However, even if she misunderstood, he had thrown out a topic that excited all the women in the entertainment industry. Yet, she refused it.
Was she still attached to Monte Patterson? For some reason, a sudden rage welled up.
“Eliza, you don’t have to act innocent,” Chester said with a snort, “Everyone knows that Monte has messed around with you before this.”
Chester was taken aback by this remark that came out of his own mouth.
He knew that he had always spoken nastily, but he did not expect himself to be this nasty.
It was not his intention to humiliate Eliza when he came here. However, seeing her attitude… He just went out of control.
Eliza widened her pretty eyes.
She probably did not expect to hear such a remark from Chester as well.
Silence filled the lounge for a short while. Chester thought she would fly into a rage, but she lifted her chin with her eyebrows arched arrogantly. ” So are you unhappy because I turned you down and didn’t let you fool around with me?
Chester’s eyes darkened. He stood up and approached her slowly. “Eliza, are you trying to provoke me?”
“I don’t know what you mean by that. Am I supposed to show an aggrieved and tearful look in front of you to make myself seem as though I fell for a scumbag instead of being played around with?” Eliza shrugged in a self-deprecating and frank manner. “Even if I behave that way, you won’t take pity on me. You’d rather see me as a phony who’s trying to retain my dignity even though I’m a b*tch.”
She was overly forthright in her words.
Chester felt dumbfounded for a few seconds. A moment later, a bizarre glint flashed across the depths of his eyes. With a flirtatious tone, he said, ” You’re right, Eliza. You know me so well despite having known me just a short while ago.”
“After talking to you a few times, I’m pretty clear about what kind of person you are. Aren’t all wealthy young men like you equally awful?” Eliza turned around and took a light green dress off the hanger. “I don’t want to be dragged into this mess anymore. Unlike men, women will develop feelings after sleeping with someone for a long time. But for men, they feel increasingly bored of the women they sleep with because the feeling of novelty has worn off.”
“You really… understand men. Did you learn this from Monte?” Chester’s brows revealed a glint of coldness.
“Don’t you already know what happened between Monte and me?” Eliza frowned with a trace of doubt. “Please go out first. I need to change my clothes.”
” Is it urgent?” Chester closed the door behind him and sat on the chair. “You can change now.”
Eliza was speechless.
How awful this man was! There was not even a restroom in this huge lounge. Where could she go and get changed?
“Why aren’t you changing? Do you want me to change your clothes for you?” Chester crossed his legs with a lazy look.
“I’ll go to the restroom outside and change,” Eliza replied.
“Go ahead. But you’re a celebrity and there might be hidden cameras planted in the restroom. It’d be interesting if the footage was posted online.” Chester laughed.
Eliza looked somber. She could not borrow someone else’s lounge either. Otherwise, other people would wonder why she could not change in her own lounge. If they looked into the issue, they would find out that Chester was in her lounge.
Once this issue was exposed, not only would she be criticized but she would also be labeled as a shameless woman who seduced someone else’s fiance.
Eliza could not help but sigh. Did she owe him in her previous life?
Even after she had risen from the dead, he still refused to let her go.
In the end, she had no choice but to sit on the chair.
“Don’t you want to change?” Chester asked sarcastically.
“Yeah, but there’s a man right here. Seeing your hungry eyes, I’m afraid you won’t let me put on my clothes again after I take them off.” Eliza made the flirtatious remark with an impassive tone.
Gazing at her, Chester snickered.
It had been a long while since Chester met such an interesting woman. Unfortunately…
“Ellie, why did you close the door?”
Leanne’s voice suddenly rang from outside. “I’m so mad. When I looked for those makeup artists just now, they said they were busy. When I looked for the head of the department, he claimed that we were late and caused a lot of problems for them… “
The door was forcefully opened.
At the sight of the man who opened the door, Leanne was instantly dumbfounded. She stammered, “Y- Young Master Jewell…”
“Mm.” Chester acknowledged her with a captivating hoarse voice before striding out with his long legs.
Leanne’s eyes settled on his silhouette for a moment before she glared at Eliza.
Eliza was overwhelmed with unease. “Don’t misunderstand…”
“Of course, I won’t misunderstand. What could I misunderstand? It must be due to your late arrival which made Young Master Jewell upset. That’s why he scolded you, right?” Leanne said in a huff, “Have you explained yourself to Young Master Jewell?”
Eliza looked down and laughed. Well, Leanne understood her so well that she did not have to clarify anything.
“Wow, Eliza. Your hairstyle looks great. Who did it? It’s beautiful.” Leanne suddenly squealed. “You look gorgeous.”
“I did it on my own, ” Eliza said, “Have you forgotten that I learned these things from the internet when I didn’t have any makeup artists to do it for me back then?”
“I remember now. That was two years ago. I didn’t expect that we’d go back to that situation.” Leanne let out a sigh.
By the time Eliza was done changing and stepped out, the first scene had already been shot.
Director Cheever was fuming with anger. “Where’s Eliza? Why isn’t she here yet? Does she need the entire morning to put on her makeup and get changed? I’m not paying her to put on her makeup.”
“Director Cheever, I did it for her an hour ago, ” a makeup artist said.
“But why is she still not here yet? She must be dawdling. If she’s late again tomorrow, she won’t have to come anymore.” Director Cheever was infuriated.
“I’m sorry, Director Cheever. I won’t behave like this again tomorrow.” Eliza walked over to the director in a light green dress. Her hair was pinned with a purple barrette on the right side, revealing her bright forehead and small face. It was a challenge to many other female celebrities, yet she looked simply perfect from all angles. With her starry eyes and pretty face, she looked radiant.
A lot of female celebrities needed to apply filters to their photos.
However, Eliza looked as though she was using a camera filter in real life.
Silence fell on the set for a moment. Chester, who was smoking at the gazebo, caught sight of the scene. His dark eyes narrowed while his lips curled into a faint smile.
Eliza was clever as she knew which part of her was most beautiful.
If a photo of her was taken right now and exposed to the public, it would evoke heated discussions on her beauty and probably make history.
