A Night with Her Cruel Mate novel Chapter 76

Lisa didn't want to lose face in front of Terence. She was just in her twenties. However, her boyfriend was as old as her dad. Any average person would think that she chose him just because of his money. She didn't want to be looked down upon by Terence.

"Mr. Chen! Richard and I..." Lisa was about to say something. However, Jean interrupted her, Lisa, I'm so sorry. I have something to do with Terence. We have to go now, so..."

Even before Jean could finish her words, Lisa already knew what she meant. Indeed, Terence was Jean's fiance. What could she do about it?

Lisa gave them a bitter smile. "I understand. You can leave now. I still have a scene to shoot anyway."

"Okay!" The smile on Jean's face widened. "See you tomorrow. Bring your boyfriend next time. Let's have dinner together."

"Okay," replied Lisa with an embarrassed face.

Jean tightly held onto Terence's arm. Together, they walked out of the shooting site. When she looked around and confirmed that they were finally alone, she immediately released him. With an embarrassed face, she explained, "I apologize. I was just afraid that you may cause unnecessary trouble, so..."

"Don't worry about it. It doesn't matter," said Terence in an indifferent tone. He opened the car door and gently helped Jean get in the car. "What do you want to eat?"

"I am not sure. Maybe you should choose for me," said Jean in a light tone.

In the end, Terence selected a Western restaurant. Since Jean's hand was injured, he sliced up the steak and then exchanged plates with hers.

"Thank you," said Jean with a smile.

"You're welcome." Terence looked at her with warm eyes. "Eat some more. Although I'm not one of your celebrities, I'm aware that it's not easy. You don't have a regular time for three meals a day. It will be more difficult for you to fall asleep if you have to shoot a night scene."

"Right." Jean sighed with an exhausted expression. "It's tough for us to work in this industry. I'm not even the most tired. After all, I'm just a scriptwriter. Those actors and directors are hectic workers. They seldom have time to rest."

After a pause, Terence continued, "Actually, you don't have to go to the shooting site. That should be easier for you, right?"

"I know that. However, I still worry about it." Jean gave him a warm smile. "You know, this is my first novel that is turned into a TV drama. I am extremely anxious about it. I watch the screen daily, hoping to get the best scenes."

She gracefully ate a slice of steak and continued, "To me, this TV drama is like my child. I hope I can watch it prosper."

"Really?" Terence didn't make any comment about her statement. "By the way, I called the agency today. I asked them to recommend two qualified servants. I've already sent you the information of their servants. If they're available, they can start to work tomorrow."

"Thanks, but no." Jean expressed a determined expression. "I've already had the right person in mind."

"Okay, I understand." Terence gave a slight nod. "Anyway, if you need any help, just let me know. It's my pleasure to assist you."

"Don't worry too much about me." A warm smile painted Jean's face. "I'm really sorry to bother you. I know you're busy with your work."

"We are friends," said Terence impassively.

Jean was delighted because Terence cared so much about her. However, when she heard "friends," she lost her appetite. Instead, she just stared blankly at the steak that was already cut by him.
