Chapter 121 The Past of Sean Jules
Suzy arrived at the bar. The whole place had been booked by Sean. He was the only one at the bar counter.
Suzy walked up to him. When she saw the pile of empty bottles on the table, a hint of displeasure flashed through her eyes. “Sean…”
Before she could finish her words, Sean turned his head and looked over. When his eyes met Suzy’s face, the gloominess in his eyes suddenly disappeared.
“Suzy, why are you here?”Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
Only then did Suzy see his face. His handsome face and the corners of his mouth were bruised. Suzy’s eyes paused, and her voice grew colder. “What happened? Who hit you?”
“Are you concerned about me?” Sean looked at her with an ambiguous smile.
“Shut up. I’m just wondering if you can continue filming tomorrow. I’m not sure if your makeup can cover up this wound.” Suzy sat down on a chair next to him and asked with a frown, “Did Earl do it?”
Earl was also in the Ancient Town. At the moment, Earl was the only one who dared to attack Sean.
Sean nodded and then smiled. “I beat him up even harder.”
Suzy rolled her eyes speechlessly. “Okay, let’s go back. It’s getting late.”
However, Sean didn’t move. He picked up a glass and poured a glass of wine for Suzy.
“Since you’re here, have a drink with me. I’ll tell you a story.”
Suzy looked at him. She had a vague feeling that Sean had something important to tell her. In the end, she did not say anything else. Suzy pulled out a chair by the side and sat down. She picked up his glass and took a sip.
Under the light, the atmosphere in the bar was extremely quiet. With a trace of deepness in his eyes, Sean slowly said, “A few months ago, I had a very long dream.”
“In my dream, the Carters family is no longer as glorious as it is now. Something happened to ACLC, Dreaming Pictures declined, and the Carters family is in a mess. All of this is because of the Hughes Group.”
When Suzy heard those few words, the space between her eyebrows twitched, and the way she looked at Sean suddenly changed.
Sean gulped down the wine in front of him and continued, “Dreaming Pictures is in financial crisis. As Earl’s friend for many years, I have no reason not to help him and give him all my savings.”
Suzy’s eyes flickered slightly. “And then?”
“Later, the adopted daughter of the Carters family was sold abroad for money. At that time, I felt that she was really stupid! She was fooled by this family.”
This adopted daughter was naturally Suzy.
A sarcastic smile appeared at the corners of Sean’s mouth. “Later on, all the money of the Carters family could not save the company. I was sent to Zeke Davis by Earl at a banquet.”
Suzy’s gaze was filled with shock when she heard this.
Zeke Davis was a famous producer in the industry, a man in his fifties. Some time ago, someone had said that he was gay, and that he often relied on his power and sexually abused young male actors.
So, what happened to Zeke was revealed by Sean? Suzy’s heart was filled with shock.
She finally understood why Sean had betrayed Earl.
Scenes of the past flashed through his mind, and his eyes were grim. “I’m the same as you. I didn’t want to be humiliated, so I killed myself.”
Suzy’s lips twitched as he slowly said, “That dream was quite miraculous.”
Sean raised his eyes and looked at her. “Suzy, you know that this is not a dream.”
“From the beginning, everything changed because of Teresa’s fall into the director’s trap. You’re no longer the same as before. Instead, you left the Carters family decisively. Victor Ryan, Diana Jones, Flora Krane, and Queenie, you all know that they’ll become a big hit in the entertainment industry in the future.”
Instantly, Suzy fell silent.
Sean curled his lips slightly and continued, “Suzy, so we’re the same kind of person, aren’t we?”
They had all treated the Carters family with sincerity before, but in the end, they had been pushed out.
The God had given both of them a chance to be reborn.
Suzy did not respond to Sean’s words. She drank up the wine in front of her and said lightly, “Let’s go. It’s getting late.”
This time, Sean didn’t say anything more.
The two of them walked silently to the hotel with their own thoughts. When they arrived at the elevator, Suzy finally said, “Sean, you don’t actually like me. You just want to use me to take revenge on Earl, don’t you?”
Upon hearing this, Sean immediately smiled. “You’re really much smarter. Yes, it’s just as you think.”
“But that’s just my initial idea. After getting along with you these days, I really like you.”
Suzy: …
Oh, it was all because of her charm.
The elevator door opened. Sean waved his hand and walked out.
“Suzy, good night.”
Suzy’s mind was in a mess as she returned to her room. In the end, she did not think too much about it. As long as Sean did not do anything that would harm her, it was fine.
Back in her room, Janet had moved in after Evan left. She was still awake.
“Miss Carters, why have you been gone for so long? Is Mr. Jules back?”
“Yes.” Suzy glanced at her. “Did you tell Evan?”
“No…”
Suzy originally wanted to say something, but then she said indifferently, “If you want to tell him, then tell him.”
If Evan found out that she went to the bar late at night to meet Sean, he would definitely be angry. It just so happened that she was in a bad mood, so she wouldn’t let him off either.
After saying that, Suzy changed into her pajamas and lay on the bed.
After some hesitation, Janet ultimately chose not to tell Evan about this. If Mr. Hughes found out, it would be even harder for the two of them to reconcile…
The next day.
As soon as Suzy woke up, she went to the crew. Today, she was going to shoot a scene in the Ancient Town’s Imperial Palace. The venue had been rented by Suzy.
In the dressing room, Suzy and Sean met each other. Neither of them talked about what had happened yesterday. He still looked confident and at ease.
The filming had just begun after she put on her makeup and everyone was present. Janet ran over in a hurry and said, “Miss Carters, there’s an emergency in Somo City. I have to hurry back.”
Suzy looked at her anxious face and said nothing, “Okay. Go on.”
Before leaving, Janet told the security staff, “It’s a scene of falling into the water today. Miss Carters can’t swim. Remember to take good care of her… Don’t let her stay in the water for too long.”
“Alright, alright. Stop being so long-winded. Hurry up and go!”
“Miss Carters, Earl is still in Somo City. You have to be careful when I’m not around. Don’t get tricked by her again.”
Suzy nodded, and then a trace of bright light flashed in her eyes as she watched Janet’s figure leave.
Janet had left. The true mastermind behind all of this had always thought that she thought Earl was the one who”d done everything during this period of time. Would he make a mistake because of this?
The scene of falling into the water was done smoothly in the fish pond in the Royal Garden. By the time the scenes ended, it was already dark.
