Chapter 341
The raging bellow that boomed in the film set out of the blue left everyone stunned.
Zoe then turned to find Bob storming toward them, flushed to the neck!
She was shocked-she did not expect to see any familiar faces here!
She watched as Bob furiously kicked down the camera in front of him and scooped her up in his arms the next instant while ensuring that she was tightly wrapped under her towel. It was as if he was worried that the towel would fall off in front of everyone!
"W-Who the hell are you?!" The director was stunned by Bob's sudden intrusion, and it took a while for him to snap at Bob. "This is a film set, and you're intruding! I can call the police, y'know!"
"Call them right now!" Bob barked. "Let's see if they'll arrest you or me when they see what you're up to here!"
The director was left speechless by Bob's retort, while Bob turned toward Zoe without delay. "Where are your clothes?'
"In the changing room."
"Put them on right now.’
"Bob-"
"It's just money, isn't it?! I'll give you a million if you want!" Bob snapped, clearly on the limits of his patience.
Zoe even felt like he would spontaneously combust!
She thought he would be even more furious if she told him she just needed forty grand, though there was no way they could continue filming now.
"Just wait a moment for me," she told him calmly.
It took Bob a while to finally let her down, but he followed her into the changing room, as if worried she would give him the slip.
Zoe got changed and stepped out, and he pulled her along, leaving the studio without a word.
They got in his car, but he did not drive away as if he were too frustrated to do so.
"What are you doing here?!" Zoe asked.
It would have been better if she did not ask-Bob was incensed at the very mention of that!
