Sweetheart Do You Still Love Me novel Chapter 239

Chapter 239

“Aha! Let’s see how you’re going to refute me!”

Yelena felt that it was fun seeing Max getting exasperated. It was her first time gaining the upper hand in their relationship, so there was no denying she was exalted.

“You’re unreasonable!”

Max was so furious that he almost blacked out. It never crossed his mind that this young woman, who had always been obedient, could be so rebellious.

He suddenly thought of something and squinted. “I’m disciplining you on your brother’s behalf. If you don’t behave yourself, I’ll inform him.”

Yelena clicked her tongue. “Hex? Do you think he can discipline me?” She appeared scornful. Why does he keep coming up with excuses instead of telling me what’s on his mind?

“He said he’d tell your mom.”

The next moment, the smug smile on Yelena’s face froze. “Forget it. Just pretend that I said nothing.”

Then, she snuck behind Max, looking crestfallen.

Seeing that, Elspeth pressed her palm against her forehead helplessly. This was the best chance at forcing Max to confess his love for Yelena, but the woman easily yielded to his threat.

Meanwhile, Eric didn’t read too much into it as he extended his hand to shake hands with Max. “Hello, nice to meet you.”

Although Max looked at him coldly, he still reached out to take the other man’s hand forcefully. “Well, I’m not too happy to see you.”

“Ouch!” Eric couldn’t help but yelp as he felt pain in his hand.

He turned to Elspeth, looking dumbfounded. “Your friend is full of strength.”

“Haha…” Elspeth let out a dry laugh. “He’s like that. Don’t read too much into it.”

“Alright.” Eric nodded. “Let’s go in now.”

Elspeth then brought him to the film set of ‘Song of Viollenys’. Yelena wanted to tag along, but Max forced her to stay behind.

When the director registered Elspeth’s presence, he felt his head aching again. “Miss Lynwood, the decision isn’t mine to make. As I said, I can’t afford to offend the person behind Miss Walker.”

“Look, Eric. Everyone is scared of Emma now.”

Elspeth turned around and shrugged helplessly at Eric, who stared at the director with a stiff face. “What did Emma tell you?”

The director appeared hesitant, but he still told him everything. “Emma said that if we lend the film set to Miss Lynwood, she’ll tell the person behind her to destroy our production team.”

After a pause, he continued, “I thought the person was probably Callum since he’s on good terms with Miss Lynwood. As such, he’d likely agree to it. However, Miss Walker said that the person behind her is the son of an Oil Magnate. She even showed us proof. Left with no choice, I could only give in to her demand.”

Upon finishing his words, the director let out a sigh, appearing helpless.

“What if I tell you the Oil Magnate’s son is my friend?”

The director widened his eyes. “Are you serious?”

Seeing that the director didn’t believe her, Elspeth turned to the man beside her. “Eric, how are you going to prove your identity to them?”

Eric smiled and fished out his passport. “Well, I suppose this is good enough to prove my identity.”

When the director took a look at the passport and made out the famous name, his face paled.

It really is him!

In an instant, his legs turned to jelly as his voice softened. “Sir, why are you here?”

Eric kept a gentle smile on his face. “I’ve come to Chars to deal with the matter regarding Emma. She has threatened all of you using my name and harmed Elspeth’s interests. I’m displeased with that. As such, I want to tell you that for all matters related to Elspeth, you have to prioritize her needs first.”
