“It’s getting late. Hurry up and take a shower!” he suggested in a low voice, hoping that she could get some rest as soon as possible.
“I’ll sleep in the guest room.” After saying that, she opened the door to the guest room and went inside. I guess I’ll be housemates with him tonight!
Then, she went inside for a shower. It took her half an hour to finish showering and washing her hair. Hence, it was fully dark outside by the time she dried her hair and came out of the room. At this moment, she saw Louie standing on the balcony and enjoying the wind.
Why is he still awake? Eva walked out to the balcony to enjoy the night breeze as she felt a little restless. He was holding a glass of red wine in his hand. When he saw her walking over, he leaned against the railing in a sexy manner. His nightgown fell open slightly, and his firm chest muscles were faintly visible through the opening, giving him a wild and roguish atmosphere.
She suddenly discovered that her mouth was a little dry, so she took the glass of red wine from his hand and gulped down the contents by herself. On the other hand, he watched her finish half a glass of red wine in one gulp and smiled. “Do you want some more?”
“Yes.” It felt as though the red wine could quench her thirst, so she nodded.
He went inside and poured another half glass of red wine for her. Taking the glass from him, she immediately began drinking again. She liked this type of red wine. There was a slight sweetness and tartness that gave the wine a rich aftertaste.
“If you like it so much, I’ll give you two bottles next time,” he said. This red wine was something that he specially brought for this occasion. Not only was it expensive, but the taste was also exquisite.
Eva raised her eyebrows at those words. “Okay!” After she finished the half glass of wine, she handed the empty glass back to Louie. “I want more.”
“Aren’t you worried that you might get drunk?”
“I’ll sleep better if I’m drunk.”
“Why? Do you have a hard time falling asleep when you’re with me?” he asked her with a playful smile.
She countered his question with another question. “Are you going to get me more wine?”
Naturally, he was more than willing to get her more wine. That was because he liked the drunk her tonight. She looked even more charming and adorable than usual.
Eva propped her chin on her hand, feeling a little drunk. Even so, she liked this hazy intoxicated feeling. It made her feel as though she could be more relaxed in front of this man. After she drank another half glass of red wine, she accidentally let out a belch in front of Louie.
She immediately covered her mouth in horror, feeling extremely embarrassed about her unsightly behavior. Nevertheless, he simply smiled and stretched out his hand to stroke her cheek. “That’s what you get for drinking so much!”
She placed the wine glass down and used her hand to brush her long hair aside. At the same time, she intentionally leaned into his embrace, after which Louie’s eyes darkened in appreciation as he enjoyed her initiative.
If he had to be honest, Louie had already noticed Eva’s feelings for him. She had never once rejected him in the past, so it could be seen that she had fancied him even before this. It was fortunate that he had not given up and waited for her all this while—the day when their feelings for each other would come to fruition was finally here.
He hugged her and planted his thin lips in her hair. A faint scent of flowers filled his nose, making his heartstrings twitch slightly. An uncontrollable urge surged in his heart as a result, and he asked hoarsely, “Would you like to sleep together tonight?”
“No.” Eva insisted despite being drunk.
“Why not?”
“If I sleep in the same room with you, do you think I’ll have any time to sleep?” she complained slightly.
“Don’t worry. I promise I’ll let you sleep well.” After Louie hoarsely finished his sentence, he reacted like a beast that had been eyeing its prey for a long time and pounced upon her as though she were his prey.
She had understood the implications of her actions tonight. When she came here, she had already mentally prepared herself for what might happen. This man had always been intensely attracted to her, but her reserve as a woman had prevented her from taking the initiative.
“Eva, I love you.” Leaning close, he whispered in her ear and his thin lips kissed her earlobes. In response, she hugged him tight and actively searched for his thin lips.
The corners of the man’s mouth curved into a smile. At this moment, the long wait he suffered previously was worth it.
In another room, Jessie was chatting with Julian on the phone. Although they were only separated by one room, there was a unique charm in using written words that brought endless fun to the conversation.
Lexie, who was nearby, felt extremely envious! Nevertheless, she was happy that Jessie was in a relationship with Julian because she believed that Jessie deserved to have him.
“To be honest, Jessie, I can’t accept any woman being in a relationship with Young Master Julian. You’re the only one who gives me the feeling that the two of you are a match made in heaven when you’re together,” she said.
Naturally, Jessie was overjoyed to hear those words! It was just that she did not wish to reveal their relationship to the public yet. Part of the reason was their current cooperation with each other. Their relationship would affect the promotional results of their movie, so they could only maintain a cooperative relationship for now.
The fact that they were in a romantic relationship with each other had to be kept secret.
This point was something Lexie had also considered, so she suggested, “But, Jessie, you and Young Master Julian should not reveal your relationship to the public yet. He has many female fans. I’m worried that they might affect your movie premiere.”
“Yeah! You’re right. I’ve also considered that issue, so I will maintain my distance from him.”
Early the next morning, Eva vaguely heard the ringing of a phone. It was just that she was still a little sleepy, so she continued to sleep and felt Louie planting a kiss on her cheek. Immediately after that, he kicked off the blankets and got out of bed to answer the phone.
It was at this moment that she was fully awake. He had gone out to the living room to answer the phone, so she wore her clothes and went out to accompany him. At this moment, she heard his voice entering her ears. “Mr. Constantine, I will come back as soon as possible to discuss the engagement. Please give me a little more time. I will give you a proper explanation. Don’t worry. I will fulfill the agreement that my parents made with you back then. I will not make things difficult for you.”
Eva paused in the middle of walking out into the living room. Engagement? Does he have an engagement? Why have I never heard him mention that before?
When he finished his phone call and returned to the room, she was already on the bed and ready to sleep again. She did not wish to let him discover that she had eavesdropped on his phone call.
During breakfast, Louie invited Director Cooper to eat together so that he could ask about Eva’s role in the scene. If her scenes could progress quickly, then she would be done in two days. Although he was in a rush to return and dissolve his engagement, he wanted to wait until Eva was finished so that he could bring her back to Averna with him.
“I don’t want to be so rushed. I’ve been a little tired recently, so I want to rest before I continue filming.” Eva realized that Louie wanted to wait for her to return to Averna, so she deliberately dragged things out because she didn’t want to go back.
After saying that, she looked up at the man. “If you have something urgent, you should go back first!”
“No worries. I can wait for you.”
“I plan to stay here for another week or two. Are you planning to wait for me?” She deliberately pointed out.
Louie pondered in silence for a moment. “In that case, I’ll go back and settle something this afternoon. I’ll come back as soon as possible and wait for you to finish filming, then I’ll bring you back to Averna.”
“Alright. You can go back first!” She nodded.
At 10:30AM, Louie left the hotel. On the other hand, Eva inquired about Julian’s filming location today because she wanted to visit him.
Julian was filming at the studio today. Thanks to his current role, he had many wire-flying scenes to film. Not to mention, he was filming with Jessie today. Their cooperation could be considered remarkably cohesive at this point.
After they finished filming, Eva walked over and talked to Julian. Jessie was still filming at this moment, so they entered the resting lounge. “Julian, I’d like to ask you something. Does your brother have an engagement?”
Julian was taken aback. “How did you know?”
“I overheard him on the phone this morning. Tell me. What is going on?”
He had been very young at the time. He was only five years old when his parents set up the engagement for his brother, and he later heard from his brother that this engagement was what brought the company’s business back to life.
