Seven Years a Fool One Day a Queen (Kristine and Colton) novel Chapter 301

Chapter 301

What?

Although your character isn’t the best, there’s one thing you said that’s quite true.”

Eliza raised her eyes to meet his gaze, her expression showing a hint of cold indifference.

You’re indeed not suited for me.”

With that, she quickly turned her gaze away, showing no interest in lingering on him for even a moment.

he turned and walked away.

Calvin didn’t say another word, just stood there, watching her leave.

t wasn’t until a long time had passed that he finally lit a cigarette.

The smoke curled around him, giving him an air of somberness and coldness.

Gradually, he seemed to blend with the darkness around him.

After Eliza finished her shower, she noticed that Belle had tried to call her via video.

he casually wiped her hair and picked up the phone to return the call.

Belle answered almost instantly.

Are you done with work?”

Yeah, just finished showering.”

Did you have a good time today?” Belle asked about the banquet.

She had wanted to take leave to congratulate Eliza, but the crew wouldn’t let her.

Happy or not, it’s all the same.”

Belle pressed for details, and only then did Eliza mention Calvin and Medea.

Crazy couple, really enough!”

Belle immediately started ranting.

And Calvin, how dare he say that?”

líza replied, “I don’t care.”

Exactly, just ignore him!”

‘And there’s another thing… Josh confessed to me.”

Belle immediately perked up. “Really? He finally said it? Didn’t he hold it in for so long?”

Eliza had told Belle about the email, so Belle knew Josh had liked Eliza for eight years.

“I’m also a little surprised he finally confessed”

In fact, Josh had said last time that he would talk to her after the listing of ASKHEART.

ཡ་་ ལ་

Eliza had already guessed it would be a confession.

But she didn’t expect it to happen ahead of schedule.

She didn’t know what caused it.

‘So, what do you think?” Belle was more concerned with Eliza’s thoughts.

Eliza didn’t hide anything, “Honestly, I’m not ready for it.”

selle disagreed, “Love is not something you can be ready for. Didn’t the song say it? Love comes too fast, just like a tornado…”

Stop.” Eliza quickly interrupted, fearing that her soulful singer would continue and end up singing for the whole night without repeating.

lesides, she didn’t hit a single note correctly, and listening to her was quite torturous.

As for me, I could take it or leave it.”

tight now, she felt that love wasn’t a necessity in life.

Vork had already filled up her whole life, and she really couldn’t spare energy to nurture relationships, go on dates, or improve her feelings with someone

Moreover, even the best relationships would face conflicts.

he didn’t have the energy to argue, explain, or reconcile…

t was really troublesome.

Give it a try,” Belle still wanted to persuade her, “What if it’s a perfect match? What if this is your fate? What if you get moved?”

Not feeling anything now doesn’t mean you won’t in the future. Aren’t feelings something you can nurture?”

Feeling can’t be cultivated; that’s a fallacy. If you have enough time and love, you can make anyone fall in love with you. In that case, anyone can fall in love with anyone.”

elle rolled her eyes at the sky, “Baby, that’s obviously a result of post–breakup trauma.”

When this topic came up, Belle couldn’t resist dragging the culprit Calvin into the conversation for another round of verbal bashing!

Alright, alright, I’ll give it a try.” Eliza finally made a decision.

1st consider it giving herself a chance.

Wait a minute, I remember there are several people lined up for you.” Belle suddenly remembered Eliza’s other admirers.

If there’s a queue, it must be Josh, since he’s been waiting for eight years.”

elle replied, “No objections there.”

fter discussing her own matters, Eliza asked about Belle’s situation.

How’s work going recently?”

Well, not bad.” Belle’s eyes clearly flickered.

liza caught the detail right away, stopped wiping her hair, and asked, “What’s going on? Facing problems?”

Well, it’s not a big deal. It’s just that the third female lead they forced in by the investors is adding more scenes, and even took my best scenes for herself. I tried. alking to the scriptwriter, but they just shot me down.”

liza’s gaze grew colder, “I have a word with the producer.”

Trying to play the background game, huh?

Did they think Belle had no one behind her?

She’d worked so hard to get to this point; wasn’t it her job to back up her best friend?

Belle hurriedly stopped her, “No need for that, I can handle it. I haven’t been in this business for so many years for nothing!”

‘But when you can’t handle it, don’t forget to ask me for help.”

‘Deal!”

Regina could only help Medea with some basic treatment for the swelling on her face before asking about her situation tonight

I was planning to secretly go talk to Eliza about it, but I didn’t expect Vivian to spill it.”

So, what did Calvin say?”

Medea adjusted her ice pack, “He told me not to go.”

Regina frowned, “That’s all he said?”

Yeah.”

‘He didn’t mention calling off the wedding?”

No.”

Regina felt both reassured and uneasy.

Because they couldn’t figure out what Calvin was thinking, their minds were always in a state of uncertainty, always uneasy.

Vivian whispered, “Actually, I think brother–in–law is concerned about you. He’s afraid you’ll be wronged by Eliza, so he doesn’t want you to make a scene.”

Medea paused.

he hadn’t thought of it that way.

Vivian continued, “And when I told him you were going to see Eliza, he immediately left the dinner to look for you. He’s definitely afraid you’ll get hurt by

liza!”

Now that you mention it, that does make sense.” Regina also felt it made sense.

Medea felt a little more at ease inside.

But right now, the difficulty she faced hadn’t been solved, so she couldn’t fully relax.

And then things took another turn.

The President of Titan Financial found Medea and asked to collect the monthly payment and interest in advance.

‘Mr. Campbell, isn’t this a bit inappropriate?”

Medea hadn’t expected Titan Financial to come to her about this.

Moreover, where could she possibly get so much money?

President Campbell forced a smile. “Ms. Wynn, I lent you the money, so the rules are mine to decide. It’s written in the loan agreement. If the borrower fores financial risks, we have the right to collect the funds early.”

Chapter 301

“But I don’t have any financial risks…”

“Ms. Wynn, do you think we don’t know anything in this line of work?” President Campbell interrupted her, “I heard Everup is going bankrupt.”

Medea’s expression changed.

She hadn’t expected the news to leak so quickly.

And Everup’s bankruptcy was indeed an unexpected event.

When she took out the loan, she never considered this possibility.

So now, she couldn’t argue with President Campbell.

This week is the final repayment deadline, and I hope Ms. Wynn can transfer the funds to Titan Financial account soon. Otherwise…. we’ll have no choice but to tart publicly collecting.”

resident Campbell didn’t specify his collection methods, but Medea couldn’t shake the bad feeling growing in her heart, a cold shiver running down her spine.
