Today was the meet and greet for the film crew and investors. Suited-up gents were deep in conversation, elegant ladies weaving through the crowd. The atmosphere of the whole banquet was very lively.
Jason looked around, walked towards the director’s direction, and whispered to Estelle, “If you don’t like this kind of occasion, you can find a place to rest for a while, and 111 talk to the director” “No problems, I need to get used to it. Estelle, arm in arm with him, chuckled softly.
She caught a sharp look coming her way. Turning her head, she was taken aback, Jonathan and several business celebrities were standing together and laughing
The man was all grace and poise, wearing a simple but well-tailored white shirt.
Jonathan was engaged in the conversation, not looking at her. Estelle brushed it off as her imagination.
The director, Mr. Tucker, was all smiles and sunshine when he saw Jason and Estelle. He was thrilled about Estelle joining the team.
Estelle exchanged a few pleasantries with him, her eyes wandering around the room. She frowned when she saw Morrison. The Langston family owns an entertainment company, so it made sense they were involved in the film.
Now, Morrison had his arm around a woman in a shiny silver backless dress. The woman was alluring, glued to Morrison.
Estelle’s heart turned cold. Morrison would usually bring Magdalen to such events.
But today, he shamelessly brought another date.
No wonder Magdalen was feeling down a few days ago Women’s emotional intuition is always the keenest
Estelle watched as Morrison, arm in arm with the woman, exited through the back door Her heart sank.
“Jason!” Estelle whispered. Tm feeling a bit dizzy. I’m going for some fresh air. You continue your chat with the director. I’ll be right back.”
“Are you dizzy without even drinking?” Jason touched her forehead. “Alright, just don’t go too far.”
“Okay!
Estelle responded, heading towards the back door with quick steps,
Outside was a hot spring garden, dense with plants. Flowers and trees obscured the warm yellow street lights, casting a dim light.
Estelle followed the stone path but didn’t see Morrison and the woman anymore.
Passing the corridor over the hot spring on the left, Estelle saw a fleeting figure it was the woman in the silver dress.
Estelle immediately gave chase
Upstairs were the changing rooms and rest areas for VIP guests.
Estelle walked down the dimly lit comidor, just turning a corner when she saw two people in an embrace, hidden in the shadow of a large potted plant.
She instinctively turned to avoid them but bumped into someone, and was startled
The person quickly covered her mouth, spun her around, and pinned her against the corner of the wall
One hand covered her mouth, the other braced against the wall. His tall body was tightly pressed against her.
Estelle’s mouth and nose were covered by his hand. She instinctively held her breath, lifting her head to see his deep, mysterious eyes.
The cold, dry touch of his palm made her tense up. She lifted her hand to grab his wrist, trying to push him away.
Almost simultaneously, the woman by the potted plant asked in a hushed voice,
“Who’s there?”
