The Enticing CEO’s Chosen Bride novel Chapter 991

Chapter 991 

In this era where profit came first, only a handful of directors were willing to invest a ton of time, énergy, and money to shoot a film or series that might flop. 

“I’m not trying to outdo the classics.” 

Chloe raised an eyebrow slightly, asking, “Then what’s your plan?” 

“I want to make films that reflect the current social phenomena.” 

“Current social phenomena?” 

The man nodded affirmatively, “Yeah, like you, straight–shooting, sharp as a tack, no–nonsense, and sometimes not so nice.” 

Chloe halted her steps/slowly turning around to look at him. A trace of a smirk appeared on her face. 

“You’re saying I’m, straight–shooting, and not nice enough?” 

“Yes, but a lot of people like you, right?” 

Chloe tilted her head slightly, asking, “Are you complimenting me?” 

“I’m just telling it like it is. Ms. Summers, do you see ‘not nice‘ as a form of compliment?” 

Chloe chuckled lightly, “A person who is overly nice in this society will likely not make it.” 

One can be nice, but not too nice. 

Otherwise, some people would take advantage of your niceness without end, demanding unreasonably from you. When you couldn’t satisfy them, you would become the most unforgivable villain in the world. 

“I couldn’t agree more with you.” the man whispered. 

Chloe arrived at Winston’s crew, and the experienced ones recognized her at a glance. Chloe greeted them, and soon Manuel brought several boxes of coffee and tea with a few people, distributing to each crew member. 

The crew was visibly thrilled. 

Chloe felt a bit uncomfortable in this atmosphere, so Winston took her for a tour around the set in the film city. 

Unexpectedly, they ran into Danielle who was currently filming. 

Danielle was clearly surprised to see Chloe. “Ms. Summers?” 

Chloe looked at her, also somewhat surprised. “Ms. Danielle.” 

“Ms. Summers, what brings you here?” 

“Just hanging around.” 

Danielle nodded at Winston. She was about to collaborate with Winston on a new film, and they’d already met twice. 

“Danielle, someone sent flowers again.” Someone yelled from behind. Chloe glanced at the large bunch of bright red roses, smiling, “You get back to work..\” 

Danielle hastily signed for the flowers. Watching Chloe and Winston’s retreating figures, she hurried to catch up. 

“Ms. Summers.” 

“Hmm?” 

Danielle bit her lip, whispering, “Ms. Summers, do you know where Seth has been lately?” 

Chloe’s forehead slightly creased, “Ms. Danielle, you’re his girlfriend.” 

Was it appropriate to ask her this? 

Danielle bit the corner of her lip, looking somewhat aggrieved. 

“I was just asking casually. I’ve been filming these days and I’m curious about what he’s been up to….” 

“I regret to inform you that I’m not in the habit of prying into people’s private lives. If you want to know, you can call him directly.” 

Danielle took a deep breath, feeling a bit disappointed, “I… we had a little argument recently.” 

Chloe paused slightly, “So you’re waiting for him to apologize to you?” 

Danielle didn’t respond. 

Chloe suddenly recalled Hugo in the orphanage and Cicely at No.8 Mansion, a chill running through her. She was not sure why, but she was curious. Although Seth appeared well–dressed, elegant and generous, it was clear at a glance that he was not a good person, full of malice, emotionally cold, a typical chauvinist- 

How could he possibly apologize to a woman? 

Chloe didn’t plan on staying with Danielle any longer. She decided to end the conversation and leave, but as if Danielle had read her mind, she whispered, 

“You also think that he won’t apologize to a woman, don’t you?” 

Chloe didn’t speak, but Danielle affirmed with a flat voice, “He will.” 

He would for a woman who was unreasonably demanding, even running around half the city in the pouring rain, bringing back her favorite dish from a certain restaurant, or coaxing her to eat in all sorts of ways. Regardless of whether his feelings were genuine, it can’t be denied that he knew how to please women. 

The most unreasonable, most temperamental woman in the world might just be her. Correspondingly, the man who knew best how to please and coax women, could only be him. 

Chloe gave a faint smile, full of confusion.

“I don’t really know him. If you say he will, then just keep waiting and see.” 

Apparently, Danielle had been waiting, but she was not in a position to tell her all these things. 

Driving back to the company, after going back and forth, she only got a script in hand. The cover had the scriptwriter’s name and phone number. She scaned it, opened the script, leaned back in her chair, and started reading casually. 

But this casual reading turned into an hour. 

It was not until her secretary came in to deliver files that her train of thought was interrupted.
