Chapter 36 A Flustered Night
Chapter 36 A Flustered Night
After Victor finishes the shooting of that scene in the afternoon, Mary left. It was already evening, and
the shooting site was still brightly lit.
The only thing in Victor's mind was about the matter of Mary, and he was a little absent-minded in the
shooting so sometimes he had to shoot a piece for several times, which made Summer annoyed.
'Mary's mother was seriously ill and had no money, so she made a deal with William? How is that
possible?' Victor laughed at himself in his heart. 'I must be so sucked in the opera as I have act so
many roles. Otherwise, how could such a childish behavior be done by a shrewd businessman like
William. I must be trying to hit Frank so I am thinking about such a nonsense.'
"Cut!" The director not far away suddenly shouted, "What's wrong with you, Victor? How many times
have you go through this? What was your expression just now? Be affectionate! Affectionate,
understand?! It's not that I want you to be in a daze!"
It was not until then that Victor realized that he was still acting, so he quickly apologized, "Sorry,
director. I was not in a state just now."
"Forget it, alright!" The director waved his hand and said, "Let's stop and have a rest first."
Victor signed a relief but Summer, who was standing next to him, snorted. She was led by her dresser
to fix her makeup.
When Mary came back home, it was the rush hour. The bus was crowded, so she could only tightly
grasp the handle and passively follow the bus back and forth. As winter was about to arrive, the stink of
sweat, feet and perfume mixed up in the bus made Mary want to vomit.
After getting off the bus, she lost her appetite. She packed some food and went home.
Regardless of anything, she needed to take a shower first to feel better. Mary can't wait but rushed in to
the bathroom. After half an hour, she walked out of the bathroom in high spirits.
"Bella, it's just my parents' order to marry you. I have a girl I like..."
Turning on the TV, Mary sat on the sofa and watched TV with dinner in her arms. The TV was playing
the scene she watched on the shooting site that day. After the post-processing, the scene was even
more beautiful.
As he enjoyed the romantic stories, she was enjoying the delicious food of the world. Mary was
extremely comfortable at the moment.
"Click."
A crisp sound was unusually abrupt in the house where there was only one person.
All of a sudden, the door of the bedroom was opened. While watching TV and eating, Mary's mind went
blank all of a sudden. She closed her eyes and instinctively shouted, "Ah ah ah! !"
As soon as the door was opened, William was also startled by her. Hearing her voice with a sobbing
tone, he hurriedly ran to the front of Mary and asked, "What's wrong?"
Hearing the voice of William, Mary opened her eyes and saw him. She breathed a sigh of relief, but
wanted to scold him.
Her body was still trembling. Gasping for breath, she said, "I'm so scared. When did you come back? !"
Hearing that, William rubbed his eyebrows and realized that he had frightened her. He said, "I just
came back and I have just changed my clothes."
"Why didn't you tell me that you have come back? You scared me to death!" Mary choked as she was
still scared.
"You are taking a shower." With an expressionless face, William had a deterrent force.
Seeing that he was about to lose his temper again, Mary suppressed the complaints in her heart and
said, "Oh, I see."
As soon as she finished her words, the doorbell rang again.
"Ah!" Mary's steady mind was disturbed again, which scared her.
"It's the doorbell ringing." Hearing that, William sighed. Seeing that she seemed to be really frightened,
he didn't say anything more and walked towards the door in his slippers.
Biting her lips, Mary didn't dare to speak. She could only caress her heart with her hand, not to jump
out.
Just as William was wondering who would come, he opened the door and saw the middle-aged couple
next door who had met each other in the corridor.
"Excuse me, what can I do for you?" Asked William.
"Well, young man, are you home alone?" The man asked.
"No, my wife and I."
"We just heard a scream from your family," the woman said vigilantly. "What happened?"
"Oh, no, no," explained William, "It's my wife who made a fuss. I'm sorry to bother you."
"Really?" The man seemed to be suspicious and looked at the living room from time to time.
"Mary," said William to Mary, "Come out for a while."
"Oh, I see." Mary come over and asked with puzzle, "What's wrong?"
"You screamed just now," said William in an unfriendly tone. He didn't look like a bad person at all. "You
almost scared the whole building. Explain it."
As soon as Mary heard this, she looked up and met the loving eyes of the couple.
"Miss, don't be afraid since we are here." The woman said, "Is it him?" The woman pointed at William
and asked, "What did he do to you?"
"No, no, no," Mary waved her hand and was moved. "Aunt, I was scared when I saw the bugs just now.
He is my husband. I'm sorry to scare you."
"It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter," the man said. "We think there is something wrong. If there is
nothing happened, we will leave."
"Okay, fine." Mary said, "Take care, uncle and aunt. Sorry for disturbing you and thank you for your
kindness. "
The couple smiled and waved their hands. They took the elevator and walked out.
As soon as Mary turned her head with a smile, she saw the speechless expression of William.
"Well... It's all my fault. It's all my fault." Mary apologized quickly, "I'm sorry, Boss. "
"Don't mind it." Hearing that, the indifferent look on William's face was restored. He turned around and
walked inside.
"Well... Why did you come back today?" Mary asked cautiously.
"This is my home. I can come back as I want !" William was a little angry.
"Yes, that's right," said Mary with an awkward smile. "Boss, I'm going to bed. You... Go ahead with your
work."
Lowering her head, Mary ran to her bedroom, leaving Mary and the anger that hadn't yet burst out from
William alone.
Holding back his anger, William walked to the living room. When he saw the leftovers of food by Mary
on the table and the TV playing the Past of Republic of China, he was furious again.
With a darkened face, he came to the door of Mary's room. When he was about to knock, he heard she
was calling.
"Yes, I've watched it... Yes, yes, very handsome, Master Duan."
Was he talking to Victor on the phone?!
'Bang, bang, bang! '
Clenching his fists, William smashed at the wooden door. "Open the door, Mary!"
"What's wrong? What's wrong?" A few seconds later, Mary ran to open the door and asked in a panic,
"What happened? "
"Why are you in such a hurry? Have a guilty conscience? !"
"What? No." Mary was a little bit confused about what William said and said, "You... What's up?"
"Who were you talking to on the phone just now?" Said William, staring at her as if she was a criminal.
"It was Victor." Mary asked, "What's wrong?"
"Mary Lu!" William almost shouted out her name, and Mary's heart trembled two times, waiting for him
to get angry. Two or three seconds later, she heard his discouraged voice, "Go and clean up your
leftovers!"
"Okay, okay, okay." 'It seems that the Boss is squeamish again.' Mary thought but promised at once.
William followed her all the way to the living room and looked her cleaning the table and meanwhile
glanced at TV.
"Clap!"
With the remote control in his hand, he turned off the TV at once, and his face darkened.
"What... What's wrong?" 'Something is wrong with William tonight. Did he take the choking medicine?'
Mary wondered. 'Business failed?'
"Don't watch this opera anymore in the future!" William's eyes were burning with anger.
Upon hearing this, Mary was shocked. 'Is there any conflict between Victor and William?' She
wondered?
"Well... It is to support the company's industry, ha ha." Mary tried to smooth things over with a smile.
"Humph," William sneered, "I don't allow you to watch it, understand? Don't talk so much nonsense."
"Okay, okay," nodded Mary obediently, fearing that one more word would blow up William.
"Go and cook for me."
"Okay, okay, okay." After packing up, Mary rushed to the kitchen.
Fortunately, there were potatoes!
Mary quickly made a dish and found out the noodles that William bought last time. She was busy in the
kitchen, very happy.
Sitting on the sofa in the living room, William stole a few glances at her.
Her hair was tied loosely behind her, with her apron on her back. In addition, the smell of food from the
kitchen made him feel at home.
"Well, boss, the meal is ready." Mary said.
Hearing that, William came back to his senses and walked slowly to the kitchen. He looked at the
plates and bowls on the table, and then looked at the uneasy and embarrassed Mary, without too much
expression on his face.
"Well... I can't make anything else." Mary said carefully, "Just try it... I'll find a place to learn how to
cook." Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.
"Okay, go ahead." William snorted and sat down to eat.
"Well, then I'll go back to my bedroom first." Then she left in a hurry.
"Stay here!" William stopped her immediately and said, "Have the meal with me."
Mary swallowed nervously and said, "Haha... Okay."
When William was eating, he looked very silent. Mary sat opposite to him, playing with her fingers
silently.
This scene was really strange. Mary prayed silently, 'Boss, please eat quickly. Such a close contact will
give myself a chance to woolgather...'
Although William had known that she was not focused on it, but he still ate slowly. "I'll take you to the
hospital tomorrow."
"Umm," said Mary, "Oh, thank you, Boss."
"Clap!" William threw his chopsticks at the bowl and made a sound of "clang", "Call my name."
"Wi...William."
When she call his name from her mouth again, she felt very relieved. Mary had thought that since she
confessed her love to him that night, William would not let her be presumptuous any more. It seemed
that she was too narrow-minded. He didn't take it seriously at all.
Or was he taking revenge on her tonight by all of the unusual behaviors?!
