chapter 71: Do you have a crush on her?
As I was about to think about it, a phone call suddenly came in.
He took a glance at the notes and casually pressed connect, humming lightly, “I haven’t looked for you yet, but you called first.”
The mood was already depressed, and the tone was not much better.
The man on the other side of the phone sensed his tone and smiled faintly, his mockery obvious, “It seems you didn’t get what you wanted.”
John Lu sucked in a breath through clenched teeth and smiled coolly, “If you hadn’t stirred up the old man, would the result have been like this?”
The person on the other side of the phone is none other than Ann Shi, who has returned to the set lounge.
He smiled, and his sneer deepened, “When did you degenerate to the point of taking advantage of a woman, when you tanged to be the youngest Lu?”
John Lu is angry and laughs, “I fucking slept with so many women you did not care, using a you are distressed, you are a little off the virtual, right?”
Ann Shi laughed lightly and said lightly, “I don’t have the leisure to care about what you love, but the use is being willing, you know, I am notorious for not being used to seeing men who bully women.”
“…”
John Lu depressed veins jumping, half a long time, suddenly low laugh open, play flavor: “You are known for good temper, that is to all people are a fucking temper, others do not know you, you still pretend with the old me what pretend, so obvious to defend her, how, you are fond of her?”
Ann Shi did not answer his question immediately, sitting on the sofa in the lounge, looking at the TV and asking carelessly into the phone, “She is an artist under your company, you don’t plan to keep it for yourself?”
“The wife of a friend can not be bullied, if you want, the young man has this righteousness or.” Lu Shao pulled the corners of his lips in an odd way.
“You believe she’s okay with Kemp Ross?” Ann Shi slowly narrowed her eyes as she remembered Phoebe Barnes’ somewhat fallen back earlier.
The old lover of Kemp Ross can come back from the dead, even if there is a relationship can still be married?”
Ann Shi, “…”
…
At this point, Phoebe Barnes, who has returned to the Bayswater Cloud residence, is completely unaware that she is being counted back and forth by several men.
All she could think about was how she would explain to Kemp Ross later.
Specially went to the kitchen and made a dinner waiting for the man to come back.
But until 10 p. m., her small body lying on the edge of the table almost drowsy, but did not see the man back.
“Madam, why don’t … you give Mr. a call?” Chen Ma came out from the kitchen, really can’t bear to look down, took a piece of clothing to her draped.
She also wondered why her husband, who was always punctual, came back so late today without calling.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Phoebe Barnes rubbed her brow and said with a weary expression, “Chen Ma, make me a cup of coffee, I’ll wait a little longer.”
The phone doesn’t work, and she doesn’t have the courage to call, she’s really afraid he won’t pick up or he’ll hang up before she can talk.
She explained it once at the dinner table this afternoon, but I don’t know if he listened.
“This …” Chen’s mother wanted to say something, but finally said nothing and turned around to make coffee.
After drinking a cup of coffee, his spirits slightly refreshed, but his body is still tired, his small hand propped up on his chin, his gaze deep and focused on the front door.
At twelve o’clock, the quietness of the late night intensified, Kemp Ross still hadn’t come back, and Chen’s mother came out again and advised, “Madam, I’m afraid that Mr. has something wrong with the company and can’t come back, you’d better go up to bed first.”
Phoebe Barnes stared down at the phone screen in a daze for a long time and murmured, “Really not coming back?”
She lifted her small face and smiled lightly at Chen’s mother, “Chen’s mother, you go and rest first, I will go back to sleep later too.”
“I’d better wait until you get up there before I go …”
“Chen Ma, I will go back, you go rest.” Phoebe Barnes smiled sweetly, in turn looking a few bright and beautiful.
Chen’s mother had no choice but to give a few instructions and then leave.
…
When Kemp Ross came back, he saw that the lights were still on in the living room and took a moment to notice, and the next moment he entered he saw the sleeping figure lying on the dining room table.
Feet slightly fixed for a few seconds, the tall figure still walked over.
The woman’s eyes are closed, her head is tilted on her arm in a deep sleep, half of her small face is exquisite like a piece of white jade.
The table full of untouched dishes has long been cold, leaving half-drunk coffee.
You don’t have to think about it to know that she is waiting for herself, and you don’t have to think about it to know what she is waiting for.
Kemp Ross stared at her little face, his face devoid of any emotion other than mockery.
After looking at her for a moment, he raised his hand and patted her small face not too gently, and called out in a light voice: “Phoebe Barnes…”
“Kemp!” like a nightmare awakened, the sleeping woman called his name steeply and opened her eyes in a frightened trance.
Kemp Ross frowned slightly and stood without saying anything.
Phoebe Barnes noticed the dark shadow overhead and rubbed her blurry eyes against the light for a long time before she could see the figure in front of her, “Fu, Kemp?”
“You’re waiting for me?” The man lifted his lips and lifted her small face knowingly.
Phoebe Barnes, her brain still a bit muddled, nodded confusedly, “Well …”
Kemp Ross snickered softly, “Cooking a table for me and waiting for me to offer it up again?”
“Well …” Phoebe Barnes pondered for a moment, suddenly wrinkled her little brow, grabbed his arm and put it on her nose and sniffed it, the action was dumb and a little cute.
Kemp Ross pushed her away with some amusement, “You’re a dog?”
Phoebe Barnes was pushed away but quickly glued back on and pressed her face to her chest to sniff at the suit with a growing panicked expression.
Kemp Ross brow furrowed, handsome face slightly dark, voice also became a little deep, “Phoebe Barnes!”
The woman was completely awakened by his voice, and her heart was somewhat suffocated, hanging her head and biting her lip as she asked, “Why do you … have a woman’s perfume smell on you ….”
The words are a bit questioning, but her already soft voice has become more low and soft, the momentum is not, but set off a few small woman’s aggression baba.
She will only face Kemp Ross will show this side, in front of others, even if she is suffering from the biggest aggression she can also hold back the tears.
Kemp Ross raised his eyebrows, his tone no different than usual, “You have a man with you, why can’t I have a woman with me? Unfortunately, I’m not interested in sniffing out what brand of perfume that is like a dog.”
Phoebe Barnes anxious, subconsciously opened her mouth to explain, “Ann Shi and Lu less, they are just my seniors and bosses, not you …”
“I didn’t say that the women around me are the ones I have a relationship with, what’s your hurry?” The man reached out a hand and gently touched her cheek, his voice low and slow, “Take what I told you before to heart, as for your other personal matters, I’m not interested in caring.”
He finished and turned to leave.
