Spoiled By The CEO: Why The Wife Is Kinda Sweet?

Chapter 556 The Rumors

Laura had never been a troublemaker, and she knew how hard screenwriting could be. As long as the

principal was not involved, the script would not be changed.

There was only one thing she was worried about.

She asked at the thought, “My last show was a mystery. Will it be a bad idea for me to do a movie in

the same genre again?”

Lynn obviously had the same concern.

She explained gently, “They are not the same. First, the former is a TV series, and this is a movie.

They’re different.”

“Second, although it’s a suspense movie, it’s also a comedy. It’s totally different from what you’ve done

before. You don’t need to worry.”

Laura nodded at her words with relief.

“OK. I’ll talk to my agent later.”

Lynn nodded. Then she proceeded to discuss the script with the group.

Stephen Rogers and Laura had done two movies together, so they got along well.

At dinner, Stephen paid extra attention to Laura.

Laura didn’t overthink about this since she only saw him as a coworker.

People at the table were all good-natured. Since the hero and heroine of the new movie had been

confirmed, they were delighted and were drinking like fish.

Laura was infected by the good vibes here and felt elated. She drank a lot, too, at dinner.

She couldn’t hold her liquor. By the end of the meal, she was a little tipsy.

Seeing how drunk she was, Lynn wasn’t sure about letting her go home alone, so she called her

assistant to pick her up.

Laura’s assistant, Nicole, was still in the box of the original cast. Hearing that Laura was drunk, she

rushed over.

She didn’t notice Stephen there until she got here.

She was a little surprised. No wonder not only the director, the heroine, but also the hero didn’t show

up at their party.

It turned out that they were all here.

By this time, Lynn had already seen off several investors and the scriptwriter. Only Stephen and Laura

were left in the room.

Laura behaved appropriately even when she was drunk.

She didn't get herself pissed out of her mind, just leaned against the sofa and fell asleep peacefully.

When Nicole came in, she saw Laura’s eyes were closed and her cheeks were a little red with Stephen

by her side.

“Laura, she……”

They worked on the set for three months, so they already knew each other.

Stephen looked up and found it was Nicole. He explained with a smile, “Laura was wasted. Can you

drive her home? I'll help you downstairs.”

Nicole shook her head at his words.

“It’s OK. I can do it myself.”

Stephen smiled, “Don’t underestimate the weight of a drunk woman. It won’t be easy to get her down. It

will be really awkward if you both fell down together.”

Then he helped Laura to her feet.

Nicole thought he was right. NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

And after months on the set, she knew that he wasn’t a bad guy and he cared about Laura very much.

Although she was worried that they would be photographed by the paparazzi, she thought his help was

necessary at the moment. So she seemed to acquiesce in his decision.

Nicole thanked him politely, “Sorry to bother you.”

Stephen didn’t say anything, and picked up Laura in his arms and told Nicole to lead the way.

Nicole led them to the underground parking lot.

Stephen put Laura in the car and said something to the driver. He then talked to Nicole, “She got drunk

because she was in a good mood. It’s my fault I didn’t take care of her. Make sure to make some soup

for her to sober up when you are home in case that she’d have a terrible hangover tomorrow.”

Although his concern struck her as odd, she didn’t think much. After all, they had been working

together for three months.

Nicole nodded her head and said, “Sure, thank you.

Stephen smiled as a sign that they could leave, then he turned and walked back to his car.

And then, in the dark, unknown to them, there was a click of a camera.

Until Laura and Stephen’s car both left, the man who was hiding in the dark left quietly.

The next day.

Laura was awakened by a violent ringing of her phone.

She frowned disapprovingly and answered her phone.

Maria’s angry voice came over the phone.

“Laura, what’s going on? Didn’t you and Stephen go to the party last night? What’s with those photos?”

Laura was still not fully awake. So she just listened in a drowsy way.

She asked, “what photos?”

Maria found that Laura was still sleeping. The photos had gone viral on the Internet, but Laura didn’t

seem to care, which made Maria feel like she was a back-seat driver.

She felt a stirring of anger and said, “Are you kidding? Check your cellphone! Give me a call when

you’re done and fill me in on what happened yesterday.”

Then she hung up the phone.

Maria’s words completely woke Laura up.

Laura frowned, sat up, and opened her Twitter account.

As soon as she opened the trending list, she found her name at the top of it.

She paused, then clicked in. Gossip about her and Stephen appeared on the page,

with an eye-catching headline of ‘Sweet Laura and Rock Prince Stephen Had A Late Night Date’.

She sat there in silence and continued to scroll down.

She saw the pictures of Stephen helping her into her car last night. She knew she was drunk, but she

had an inkling of it.

Although her memory was vague, she knew that nothing had happened between them and he only

helped her out of concern for her safety.

She didn’t expect such a simple thing would be caught on camera and spread as gossip.
