Chapter 1: The Scene in the Bathroom
Crystal chandeliers reflected splendor on the golden walls of the room.
In the luxurious room, Suzanne Reid stepped out of the bathtub, took the bath towel from the hook naturally, and dried her body off with the towel.
A few minutes later, she wrapped herself in the towel and opened the door of the room.
At this moment, a tall figure approached her. The man’s long and narrow eyes looked at her coldly, and their eyes met!
In the blink of an eye……
“AHHHHHH!”
Suzanne, who was frightened, screamed at the top of her lungs. Subconsciously, she crossed her arms and wanted to run away.
However, she didn’t expect that she would stumble. In a split second, the man grabbed her waist.
The bath towel on Suzanne’s body loosened and fell to the ground. She fell into the man’s cold arms, which had a faint smell of grass.
The man’s palms became warm bit by bit. Suzanne even forgot to breathe. She stood on her tiptoes and let him hold her. She didn’t dare to look at him or move her body.
“E, Edwiin…… how, how did you come in……”
The man’s gaze became ardent. “I have an international conference in three days. I need to go out for a few days, so I came up here to tell you.”
At this moment, Suzanne was in a complete mess. At such a close distance, she immediately got nervous and scared. She struggled to get back on her feet. “I…… I’m going in to get dressed.”
Edwiin Morrison frowned, but he still let go of her.
The strength around her waist disappeared in a sudden. Suzanne even forgot to pick up the towel on the floor and rushed back to her room as fast as she could.
The slight curves and thin lines undoubtedly made the man’s heart drop. After a long time, he let out a low laugh.
Hearing this, Suzanne’s face turned red, and she slammed the door shut.
A week later……
As the director of the largest TV station in Riverside City announced “cut”, the recording of the entertainment program was perfectly finished!
Several directors all gathered in front of the camera to review the recording scene. The fans below the stage cheered and jumped with joy, wishing that they could directly rush to the front of their idol!
After letting out a light breath, Suzanne stood up from the chair and stretched out her right hand to the female guest sitting opposite her. Her face was as sweet as ever. “Miss Golden, I hope we will work well together!”
“Well”
Dressed in clothes worth thousands of dollars and wearing a million-dollar necklace, the beautiful woman slowly stood up and stared at Suzanne. Suzanne was neither servile nor overbearing. Bonnie Golden walked up to Suzanne with the eight-centimeter-high heels.
“As expected of the television station’s number one female anchor. Sharp-tongued and aggressive.” Bonnie narrowed her eyes as she looked Suzanne up and down.
This was the first time someone had dared to mention the things in public–Bonnie Golden attained everything she had by sleeping with the rich and the power!
She had tried her best to avoid talking about it, but Suzanne kept leading to the topic silently, which made her have to face and answer them!
“I’m sorry, Miss Golden.” Suzanne smiled.
“I know that there is something that didn’t fit your expectations this time, but please believe that this is my job. I think that we will definitely win the championship in the ratings of this show!”
Suzanne’s gentle voice flowed into Bonnie’s ears making Bonnie’s facial expression almost out of control and then a trace of anger appeared.
Bonnie moved the microphone from her and threw it aside. She raised her eyes slightly and said with a sneer, “Suzanne Reid, just wait and see.”
Glancing disdainfully at Suzanne’s fingers, Bonnie suddenly turned around. Dragging along the hem of her long skirt, she quickly walked toward her manager, who had been waiting for her under the stage.
Suzanne closed her eyes and sank into deep thought. When he opened her eyes again, she stared at Bonnie’s arrogant figure, and the smile on her face gradually disappeared.
Rubbing her painful temples, she felt that this interview was extremely tiring.
Therefore, after leaving the studio, she went straight to her office and sat down, pouring herself a cup of coffee to keep herself awake.
“You’re too bold. You know who Bonnie Golden is! She’s an exceptionally star who was hard to please in the entertainment industry! How dare you expose her shortcomings in front of so many people? She must be furious.”
Nancy White pushed open the door and entered with a stack of materials. After casually flinging them in front of her, she went to the water dispenser to brew tea.
“I don’t have a choice. Before I interviewed her, Mr. Hook, the head of the Star TV Station, asked me to pick out the controversial questions. Otherwise, how could we have the ratings?”
Suzanne picked up the teacup and took a few sips. Her slender body leaned against the black leather chair.
She hoped Bonnie wouldn’t really hate her.Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
However, when she recalled the anger in Bonnie’s eyes, she shivered for no reason.
“Alright, take it easy later. You guys have plenty of interviews in the future! Try to avoid direct contact as much as possible……”
“Got it!”
Although she said she understood, she didn’t pay much attention to it in her heart. Suzanne gracefully took two more sips of coffee, then put down the teacup.
Just then, her cell phone on the table buzzed.
Was it Vito Brown’s phone call?
Thinking of that handsome and unapproachable man, Suzanne’s rosy lips curved into a faint smile of happiness.
She tilted her head and open the phone with her fingertips.
But when she saw the word “Edwiin” flashing on the screen, the smile on her face disappeared. Her red lips moved slightly, and even her breath became disordered and unstable.
Edwiin Morrison!
It couldn’t be Edwiin Morrison!
When it comes to Edwiin, Suzanne would recall his stern and reserved face.
He always wore a dark long custom-made trench coat, with a blue and white shirt on the inside. The two buttons on the collar were always unbuttoned habitually, and a bow tie was loosely tied.
Edwiin and she had lived in a house for so many years, but he was still as cold and indifferent as ever. Whether it was attending a banquet or a large-scale event, his face was always cold and without any expression.
The only time he smiled at her was because……
