Filed To Story: My Accidental Bride Is a Fashion Circle Queen Novel
Xiner was the one that was supposed to be tamed, but why was Craig always the one to compromise?
Who was actually taming who?
“Xiner, haven’t you noticed? Out of everyone in this world, only you can get close to him. Whereas, those that wish they could get close to him, could form a queue around the world.” Emma watched as Craig rejected the advances of another woman and said with a deeper meaning, “Men like him are lazy to the bone. You better be his assistant for life, or else, he might suddenly find someone else that interests him.”
“He simply thinks I’m easy to bully,” Xiner scoffed.
“A man like him can’t be bothered to meet new people and has a weird personality. You better take good care of him.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve got it under control,” Xiner said in confidence, “He’s about to start a new film, all thanks to me.”
“Then you should hurry over and help him with his drinks, there are so many women surrounding him,” Emma said as she pointed to Craig with her chin.
Xiner looked over and immediately complained, “He can’t drink too much…” After speaking, Xiner immediately stormed over, but on the way, she accidentally bumped into someone.
The wine glass in the woman’s hand tipped all over the woman’s body. Xiner stopped in her track and immediately apologized, “I’m so sorry, I didn’t do it on purpose.”
“Which agency are you from? How come I’ve never seen you before, you clumsy little b*tch!” Two women glared at Xiner. They appeared to have quite an influential background. “Do you know how expensive Big Sister’s dress is? Now that it’s covered in wine, she can’t wear it anymore.”
“I really didn’t do it on purpose…” Xiner frantically bowed apologetically.
“Forget it, come out with me to get changed. Write down her name and send her the bill, there’s no need to make things more difficult for her,” the woman known as ‘Big Sister’ said gently. On the surface she seemed to be understanding towards Xiner’s mistake, but in reality, she had no intention of letting her off easily.
‘Send her the bill’!
A dress like this, even if Xiner worked on her current salary for the next ten years, she wouldn’t be able to pay for it.
Xiner’s face turned pale, “Why don’t I wash it for you…”
“Wash? You want our Big Sister to wear something washed and wrinkly? Which agency are you from? Call your boss over. Are you a hotel staff, perhaps?” The woman had no idea of Xiner’s identity, so it was reasonable for her to ask for her boss under these circumstances.
Xiner looked at Craig hopelessly. She originally thought he hadn’t noticed what was happening, but to her surprise, he immediately walked over and stopped beside her.
Meanwhile, Emma who had been watching for a while, continued to enjoy the show from the sidelines.
“What happened?”
Hearing Craig’s question, the woman immediately revealed a smile, “Oh, it’s Craig. This waitress destroyed Big Sister’s dress, so we are currently dealing with it. Thank you for your concern.”
“Who’s concerned about you?” Craig responded coldly. He then lowered his head and looked at Xiner, “Tell me, what happened?”
“I saw people trying to force you to drink, so I tried to hurry over to stop them. But, I accidentally ran into these two…I mean Big Sister. Big Sister said I need to pay for her dress, but…”
…how can I afford it?
Xiner swallowed her last few words…
The two women froze, curious what Xiner’s relationship with Craig was.
To their surprise, Craig directly poured the glass of wine in his hand on Big Sister’s dress as well and said, “I don’t like it when other’s bully my people. I’ll pay you for this dress, it now belongs to me. Since I own it, I can do whatever I want with it…”
“Cra…Craig,” the women were speechless.
“Have a good look at this face. She is my assistant, not some random waitstaff. Next time you want to threaten someone, know who you’re dealing with first,” Craig hooked his arm around Xiner’s neck as he spoke in a cold tone. And before the two women could respond, he dragged her out of the banquet hall.
As he walked out, he said to Eric, “I don’t like places like this. I’ll be leaving first.”
Eric squinted his eyes at him. Did he just come here to cause trouble?
But, as he turned and saw the smile on his wife’s face, he realized Craig had just treated them to a good show.
As long as Emma enjoyed the show, that’s all that mattered…
“Eric…when do you think Xiner will realize what’s going on?”
“She may not be oblivious. She’s just pretending not to know,” Eric replied as he turned back to the crowd.
Xiner wasn’t Luke. Even Luke pretended to have a low EQ at times, let alone someone as sensitive as Xiner.
In reality, Emma also suspected Xiner was playing dumb. Perhaps, she wasn’t willing to believe Craig, so she pretended not to know anything…
Meanwhile, as soon as they stepped out of the hotel, Xiner loosened herself from Craig’s grip and held onto a tree on the side of the road, “I only just saw Emma and you’re already dragging me away!?”
“As my assistant, you allowed yourself to be bullied. Are you that stupid that you didn’t know how to fight back?” Craig pulled her towards him again, “If I ever see someone insult you again, I will directly smash my wine glass on their head.”
“Since we’ve come out, let’s go meet with the director for your next film. I’ve already organized a meeting with him,” Xiner suddenly suggested.
“I’m not going!” Craig felt like Xiner was constantly challenging his patience.
“I’ve already made a promise that you’d show up, don’t make me seem untrustworthy.”
“I helped you pay for the dress tonight. First tell me how you plan to repay me,” Craig suddenly remembered he had lost a fair bit of money tonight, so he crossed his arms and questioned Xiner.
“How do you want me to repay you?” Xiner gripped onto her clothes. “Let me tell you, I sell my skills, not my body!”
“You have skills to sell?” Craig stared at her with a slight smile. “I won’t make things difficult for you. Come to my home and help me wash my underwear for a month and we’ll call this even.”
“Are you a pervert? Don’t you know how to wash your own underwear…?”
“I’m lazy…” After speaking, Craig took a few steps forward. Seeing that Xiner wasn’t following him, he turned around and asked, “Aren’t we going to go see the director?”
“Of course!” Xiner scoffed, pretending to be angry. But, in reality, she was trying to hide her blushing cheeks, “Telling me to wash your underwear. Pfft, you might as well tell me to warm your bed, you perverted old man.”
In reality, if someone was to ask Xiner to explain her relationship with Craig, she actually wouldn’t be able explain it.
