Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1315
What a bold woman. “Eliza, stop fooling around. Didn’t I make myself clear enough? This is Chester Jewell.”
“Oh, really?” Eliza’s brows relaxed. “I assumed the man who fell for Cindy to be ugly and have poor taste. When I saw this elegant and strikingly handsome gentleman, I didn’t dare take him as the rumored Young Master Jewell.”
“Eliza…” Shedrick’s face went red with rage.
“Did I say something wrong? I just praised Young Master Jewell for his strikingly handsome looks. ” Eliza shrugged, looking baffled. “I had never seen Chester before, so I could only imagine his appearance. Since I hate Cindy, I don’t have a good impression of her man either.”
Her words left Shedrick exasperated. All he could do was look at Chester fearfully. “I’m sorry, Young Mater Jewell. Eliza… She may be good at acting, but there’s something wrong with her brain.”
Anyhow, he wanted to keep Eliza, considering that she was the company’s milch cow.
Chester put out the cigarette in the ashtray. When he lifted his head, his exquisite thin lips curled into a n enigmatic smile. “From the way you beat around the bush to criticize me, I can see that you have a problem with me.”
“Do you want me to be honest? Yes, I have a problem with you.”
Eliza nodded calmly. She stared into Chester’s dark eyes and said indifferently, “You can pamper Cindy however you want since she’s your girlfriend. It’s fine if you privately invest in her by helping her secure a role in movies and release albums, but you can’t possibly feed the audience with sh*t. The most ridiculous thing is Cindy winning the award for being the most well-liked actress last year with that kind of acting. Ha…”
“Eliza, don’t overstep in line.” Shedrick panicked. He knew Chester very well, and Chester could be terrifying when he flew into a rage.
Nevertheless, Eliza continued to say calmly, as if she did not hear what Shedrick said. “So are you going to fork out some money to buy her the best actress award at the end of the year, Young Master Jewell?”
“That’s my business. How I spend my money has nothing to do with you.”
Chester slowly rose to his feet, and his tall figure made the atmosphere of the office much duller. “ You’re shouting at me simply because you think it’s unfair, huh? Well, life is unfair. If you’re capable… You can be my woman too, and perhaps… you’ll receive the same treatment as Cindy.”
