“I’ve always thought we’re bound to be together.” Declaring his determination one last time in a hoarse voice, he kissed her cheek. “I’ll be gentle tonight.”
We’ll see about that tomorrow, Eva thought to herself.
Meanwhile, Julian and Jessie had just returned from the set after a shoot. She had slowly adapted to recent shootings and her interpretation of her role was working out fine.
A group of photos of Jessie staying with the crew had been revealed to the netizens on social media. She was bathing under the sun with her long hair down, and she looked otherworldly. Her fans immediately complimented her looks and compared her to a goddess. Besides, the set of photos was even getting viral among non-fans.
Furthermore, the pictures were now trending on Twitter. Even without proper publicity about her personality, Jessie emitted warmth through the pictures.
She also received good news from Queenie recently. As August was fast approaching, Queenie’s wedding was also around the corner. Jessie was looking forward to the invitation to Queenie’s wedding.
She returned to her room after a long day, and Julian reached out a hand to caress her head. “Get some rest. Don’t stay up late.”
“I won’t,” she promised.
He recalled Louie showing up at the set again, but he didn’t bother to seek his brother out. Julian didn’t want to become the third wheel between Louie and Eva since Louie had been pouring his attention on her the whole time lately.
After all, Louie didn’t visit the set for Julian. Even though he was Louie’s brother, Julian himself was a nobody compared to Eva.
Meanwhile, in a presidential suite, Louie and Eva shared an intimate night. In the morning, the lights in the room shone on her ivory skin. Hickeys could be seen all over her shoulders, which were made by Louie last night.
She was still asleep while the man had already gotten up from bed. He walked out of the bedroom and sat on the sofa. When his gaze landed on the contract termination letter on the coffee table, he grabbed it and tore the contract apart the next second.
He did it without hesitation because he regretted his choices. Louie would never allow Eva to leave him as he was determined to be responsible for her.
Little did Eva know, her companionship for Louie last night would end up becoming nothing.
After that, he slid back into the bed and embraced her in his arms with satisfaction before he fell into slumber. It was noon when Eva woke up, and the sun hung in the middle of the sky. At first, she noticed the strong arm she slept on last night, and she then turned to the side involuntarily. She was met by Louie’s handsome face, which was bathing under the sunlight.
When she saw his face, she couldn’t help but replay their intimacy last night in her mind. With a flushed face, she fluttered her eyes shut as she suppressed the thoughts.
Sighing in resignation, Eva decided to leave before he woke up. She slid down the bed in light movements and stood on the ground like a cat without making any noise.
She put on her shirt while heading for the sofa outside, and found her phone as expected. Then, she steered her gaze to the spot where she put the letter last night, thinking to take it along. However, she didn’t find it there.
Where’s the contract? I put it over there last night.
Eva immediately searched for the document on the sofa. However, she suddenly noticed scraps of paper in the bin. She didn’t think twice before she walked over and reached out for them. It was exactly the termination letter she was looking for, but it was voided since someone tore them apart.
Eva’s chest heaved in anger. At the same time, Louie’s low voice grabbed her attention from behind. “I’m not letting you go.”
She turned to the man who was leaning against the door frame and glared at him. “Louie Gilmore! H- How can you not keep your word?!”
“You’re right, but I don’t mind becoming a jerk who doesn’t keep his promise if it means you’ll stay.” He didn’t back down from the confrontation as his eyes shone with determination.
“Don’t make me hate you.” Eva was furious at his behavior. After all, she sacrificed her virginity to earn her freedom. She couldn’t possibly stay calm after learning that he broke his promise.
“Even if you hate me, I won’t let you go.” He walked over to her and pulled her into his embrace. “After last night, I’ve decided that you’re important to me, and I’ll do anything for you.”
“You—” His sincere words put Eva’s head in a mess. After all, she also tasted pleasure like never before with him last night.
“Stay with me. I want you to become Mrs. Gilmore, the wife of the president of Stardom Entertainment. Will you accept that?” Louie was promising her the titles. He felt like it was time for him to settle down with the woman he loved.
Eva sighed at that. It was the most important decision she was about to make in her life, but she had no idea whether to accept or decline it.
Ever since she encountered many kinds of people in showbiz, she became pessimistic about true love and no longer looked forward to it. After all, there were many examples of true lovers ending up in a mess and breaking up with each other.
After a moment of pondering, she rejected him. “I don’t want the title of Mrs. Gilmore. You can give it to somebody else.”
“But I want nobody but you to own the title.” Louie rested his chin on her shoulder as he murmured, “You’re the one I want.”
“I’m exhausted. I’m going back to my room. You can pass me the new termination letter.” With that, Eva struggled out of his embrace and strode for the door.
Eva left without turning her head. At that point, Louie was in turmoil and he started to panic deep down.
At that moment, his phone rang and steered his attention away. Grabbing his phone, he looked at the caller ID for a moment before answering it. “Hello.”
“Hi, Louie. How have you been lately? It’s been a while since I last saw you.” “Mr. Constantine.”
“I’ll cut to the chase. I want to talk about the alliance marriage between our families. Are you free to talk about it sometime?”
“Mr. Constantine, I don’t think I can marry your daughter without any emotional foundation.”
“Louie, my daughter admires you. Back then, I lent your parents one hundred million in return for the marriage between you and my daughter. Even though your parents have passed away, we should still continue with the marriage.”
Today, the Gilmore Family was the leading company in the industry with an immeasurable net worth, while the Constantine Family had gradually declined over the years. Thus, the Constantine Family would grasp the opportunity to unite two families. They would never let their chance to climb the social ladder slip away from them.
“Mr. Constantine, we’ll discuss it later.”
“Sure. Why don’t you come over so we can meet up? Your father was a man who kept his promises, so surely you’ve inherited the trait from him.”
At that, Louie kept his composure as he answered, “Alright. I’ll arrange the meeting.”
Meanwhile, Eva was resting in her room but was surprised to see the hotel staff bringing her breakfast. It seemed that Louie was worried about her and had called room service for her.
Then, she remembered spending the last night with him, and she knew she needed contraceptive pills. As she didn’t want her assistant to help her deliver the pills, she decided to buy them by herself.
She went downstairs after disguising herself for the pharmacy next to the hotel. She didn’t notice the presence of the paparazzi who were following her when she walked into the pharmacy. Therefore, not only was the sight of her picking up the pills captured by the paparazzi but the packaging of the pills she picked up was also captured by the camera.
The realization of the top celebrity from Stardom Entertainment buying contraceptive pills in the early morning was setting the paparazzi abuzz for witnessing the breaking news.
On the other hand, Eva strode away from the pharmacy and returned to the hotel without slowing down, while the paparazzi reached out to the mass media and sold them the news.
The media was always fishing for her scandal because her name alone would bring them a high volume of data traffic.
In less than half an hour, her scandal was already making the headlines. All the netizens learned that she spent her time with a man last night.
They were more curious about the man’s identity because he didn’t even use protection.
