Honey, I'll Make You a Star (Margaret and Charleston) novel Chapter 7

Chapter 7 The Audition

Margaret was rendered speechless. She was very glad that she wasn't having coffee at the time, or else she would have definitely coughed them right into the man's face.

"I didn't think you'd have such an interest, Sir. But I didn't even open the wallet, so I definitely didn't see any photos." Margaret said with a wry smile.

"Larry had gone through the airport CCTV and you are the only one who touched the wallet." Charleston said impatiently, "Just name your price and hand over the photo."

"Name my price?" Margaret thought to herself, and was confused.

"Did this man think she was blackmailing him?" She continued thinking.

"Was the photo the only thing you lost?" Margaret asked.

Charleston frowned slightly. He didn't understand what this woman meant, but he still nodded.

Margaret continued sarcastically, "So, are you implying that, instead of stealing your credit cards and cash, I only took a photo from your wallet? Do you think I'm that stupid?"

Charleston's handsome face was cold and distant. "Maybe seeing that photo piqued your interest." He said.

Margaret went totally speechless again.

"Dude, I'm not blind!" Margaret said as she stood up and took a look at the time. The audition was about to begin. "I still have things to do, so I can't waste time being crazy with you here." She said as she was about to leave.

Charleston immediately grabbed Margaret's wrist and said grimly, "Stop right there."

Margaret gave Charleston a hard bite on his hand.

D*mn it, was she a woman or a dog?

Charleston quickly withdrew his hand.

Margaret feigned disgust at him and quickly fled the scene.

The audition was going to start very soon and she didn't want to be late because of this madman.

Margaret was long gone by the time Charleston rushed out of the cafe. He asked Larry, "Where is that woman?"

"It seems like Miss Simons is heading towards the theater." Larry answered.

"The theater?" Charleston murmured.

"Well, yes. A small commercial movie invested by Limbaugh Group is holding an audition there." Larry explained.
