My Baby’s Daddy novel (Anastasia) novel Chapter 1709

Chapter 1709 Fan’s Misunderstanding

After shooting a glance at the man behind her, Eva immediately denied the fan’s guess. “No, we’re not close like that.”

“Not close?” The man suddenly wrapped his arms around her waist. Although it was only a harmless question from a fan, Louie answered sincerely, “She’s my girlfriend.”

Eva was stunned by the man’s words. Who is he to say that? When did I agree to become his girlfriend?!

“Wow! Your boyfriend looks so handsome. You two look great together.” The female fan sang high praises for the two.

However, Eva only smiled stiffly and said solemnly, “He’s really not my boyfriend. Please, don’t misunderstand this.”

Then, the elevator dinged and stopped on the second floor. There, several elderly women forced their way into the elevator, despite seeing the elevator was close to being packed like sardines.

“Hey, stand further in.” One of them urged the crowd in a loud voice.

And so, the crowd went deeper into the elevator, and Eva was forced into the corner, trapped between the corner and the man’s chest, as Louie had used his body to shield her from the others. The man lowered his head while she raised hers. As their breaths intermingled, the air between them turned extremely ambiguous.

Suddenly, someone from the crowd lost their footing and nudged Louie closer to Eva. At that moment, Eva’s face grew red with clear annoyance in her eyes.

“It wasn’t intentional.” The man apologized to her by whispering in her ear.

Since he was sticking close to her, Eva could feel a certain change in him. “You—” Her face grew redder as she thought, Can’t this man show me some respect?

“It’s something that’s out of my control.” He was feeling pretty awkward as well.

It was then the elevator doors opened on the first floor and the crowd slowly got out of the elevator. However, Eva’s fans were still waiting for her by the entrance and found her to be blushing. And under the daylight, that blush lent her a sense of grace on her supple face.

In no time at all, Eva was surrounded by several fans while Louie stood by her side. Just then, there was a man who was rushing to meet a doctor who was about to come in contact with Eva. Noticing the man, Louie immediately grabbed her by her shoulders and pulled her into his arms.

Although Eva’s face was buried against the man’s chest for mere seconds, the fans were quick to work as they took pictures of the moment and thought back on how Eva was denying their relationship back in the elevator. To the fans, they assumed that this handsome hunk was someone outside the entertainment industry.

Louie had always been keeping a low profile and remained a mysterious figure in the industry since he hardly made an appearance in the media. Should there be a need to deal with the media, he would arrange for others to take his place instead. Hence, it was natural that the fans didn’t know the man before them was the very man in charge of Stardom Entertainment.

And so, Eva could only politely greet her enthusiastic fans while making her way back to her ride. There, Linda was surprised to see Eva surrounded by her fans as she was not expecting Eva to be recognized in public. Thus, she was glad that Louie had acted as Eva’s bodyguard in escorting her back to the car.

“You should go back and take good care of Julian,” Eva said and immediately shut the door on Louie.

However, the man stopped her from closing the door and shot a pleading gaze at her. “Let’s have dinner together tonight.”

“I don’t have the time.”

“I have something to discuss with you.”

After a brief pondering, Eva replied, “Fine. Let’s meet up then. We still have to discuss the termination of my contract.”

Despite him feeling a sting by her words, Louie helped Eva close the car door and saw her off. Naturally, he never thought to return to Julian’s ward as he assumed his brother wouldn’t want him there to be a third wheel as well.

Meanwhile, Jessie was on top of things as she took great care of Julian. She made sure Julian was well hydrated and even prepared fruit slices for his consumption. And so, Julian’s fever gradually went down.

Since the medicine Julian consumed had sedative effects, he was now feeling drowsy. As he watched Jessie currently arranging the flowers in a vase, his heavy eyelids gradually fell as he drifted into his dreams.

After Jessie was done arranging the flowers, she planned to let a certain man evaluate her flower arrangement. However, just as she was about to ask Julian, she realized that the man had fallen asleep.
