When hearing this voice, Cherry couldn’t help but open her eyes and stared blankly at Wesley.
Harriet was not satisfied with his cold attitude and said, “You can go first if you’re busy. I’m going to stay here for a while.”
She would not be so ungrateful as he. Cherry just got hurt trying to protect her. How could she just leave without anything happening?
Cherry came to her mind and waved her hand, “It doesn’t matter. You can go first if you’re busy, so don’t wait here, anyway I have to go through the discharge formalities.”
“I’ll do it for you.” Harriet said.
Wesley grew dissatisfied, so he grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the room.
“What are you doing?” Harriet frowned, “Please don’t pull me around here. If someone sees us, he must think about what the relationship between you and me.”
Wesley sniffed, “I think you should know what the relationship between you and me best.”
Harriet suddenly went rather pale.
They had the ugly relationship between being kept and being kept. She had thought that the worry in his eyes was real, but now she thought it was just her imagination.
“Now that you know it, then you should get out of here. If you’re photographed, you’ll be in trouble.”
Wesley’s cool eyes looked straight at her and made her tremble even more.
“You don’t seem to understand who gets into trouble.” Wesley said.
Harriet became nervous.
If their relationship was made public, she really would fall in trouble. Her career would be destroyed and And she would be accused by others as a mistress. What’s more, if this was known by Colin, she must be blamed by Colin.
For him in the business world, it would not even do much damage to his reputation beyond being talked about for a while.
After all, what successful man didn’t have a love affair behind his back?
Harriet realized this clearly and said with indifference, “I’m just a movie star who is not too popular. It’s not worth to stain your reputation because of me.”
Wesley coldly let go of her hand, “If you know, do as you’re told.”
Then Harriet did not say anything.
“Mr. Smith, if you want obedient women, there are everywhere around you. Why hold on to me?”
Wesley stared at her without an immediate answer, and his dark and cold eyes made Harriet shudder.
“Are you so eager to leave me?”
Harriet froze, not knowing what to say for a moment.
Then, Molly and the rest of the crew came over. They all kept silent when they saw Wesley, and only the head director greeted him.
“Mr. Smith, I am really sorry. It is not easy for you to take time to come here. And now you met such an accident. And It was the fault of the crew’s security. Did you get hurt?”
Wesley frowned slightly, and the director felt nervous.
Then, Wesley said seriously, “I hope this kind of accident would not happen again.”
It was someone else who helped Harriet out of the accident this time. What if no one helped her next time? Thinking of this, Wesley said more seriously, and people around him felt worried.
Wesley did not look at her.
Harriet continued, “It’s hard to find a job now, so you should treat her as a poor little girl. Let her stay with me for a while. When she has enough experience, I promise she would not make the mistake again, and I will be careful and will not cause any more trouble to the cast.”
The man was still unmoved.
Harriet puffed out her cheeks for a moment, then gulped down the red wine handy and said, “Wesley, do you make such a fuss because you care so much about me?”
When Wesley finally stopped eating and looked up, finding she was staring at him.
“Flatter yourself, once is enough.” He said.
Harriet, emboldened by her drinking, added, “Am I flattering myself? Why are you always so nervous about my safety?”
Wesley looked up and said coldly, “If our company fails to protect the artists, then it should shut. And this is just a simple deployment of security. Why are you so excited?"
Harriet looked as if she had woken from a glass of wine.
Yeah, what the hell was she flirting with?
Whenever something like this happened to any of his stars today, Wesley, as a leader, was sure to do something, not because she’s so special.
“Wesley, I really like Molly, please give her another chance.”
After the self-deprecation, Harriet continued to plead. After all, she had lost face with Wesley so many times that it didn’t matter what mood she was in if she could get him to change his mind.
Wesley looked at her, saying, “What do you want?”
