The CEO’s Surrogate Wife novel Chapter 613

"I see that Miss Aileen has a problem with my decision," Richard says sarcastically.

Aileen is a nervous wreck, she hurriedly explains, "No, it was a misunderstanding. I was just pulling his legs, I wasn't judging your decision…"

Aileen is rambling and she feels like the more she tries to explain, the worse it gets.

"I see, well then, please prepare for the next scene," Richard's tone of voice is as calm as a cucumber, it doesn't contain any emotions.

Aileen feels complicated, but she can only brace herself and continues filming. But she is even more disheartened as the next scene is about her and Albert, she really doesn't want to have anything to do with Albert, especially not in front of Richard.

The scene is about the male and female protagonist meeting for the first time.

Aileen is in traditional clothing, she descends from above and meets a pack of "thieves".

She cleanly executes a right hook, a left kick and a roundhouse kick, not for long, the "thieves" are all on the floor squirming in pain. She isn't trained in martial art and the director just teaches her the moves, but she is able to perform it perfectly.

Aileen is ready to leave the "thieves" behind, suddenly Albert appears before her, also in traditional clothing, he smiles disdainfully and says, "Why did you hurt my people?"

He flicks his tattered hat as he says that.

"They deserve it," Aileen replies arrogantly, a fight breaks out. She is nimble but Albert is better, in the blink of an eye, she is held tightly in his embrace.

Aileen is unhappy, she stomps on his feet. Albert let go of her abruptly, they stumble onto each other and fall to the ground. Their lips touch each other.

"Cut!" yells the director, everyone applauds and they all smile as the scene is smoothly taken in one go.

Aileen rubs her mouth roughly in disdain, the thought of the accidental kiss disgusts her. She knows that it is all an act but she feels uncomfortable. On the other hand, Albert licks his lips longingly, this girl appeals to him.

Aileen looks around and doesn't see Richard anywhere, she sits down in front of the make-up table dejectedly, Albert comes up to her again.

"I'm a good partner, right?" Albert doesn't know that the female protagonist is her, he worked quite hard to get this role.

"I underestimate you back then, but your acting abilities have improved greatly," said Albert sincerely, he admires her hard work.

Aileen stays silent, she doesn't want to talk to him.

"Are you angry?" Albert teases her even though he knows that Aileen has bad mood swings.

"I don't want to talk to you," replies Aileen furiously.
