Your Guise Is Slipping, Miss Pearl



Chapter 1408

James was sitting on his leather sofa in his office in Enswood. He was flipping through the newspaper and started to frown.

His assistant, who was used to seeing this, still felt nervous when he saw James's reaction." Sir, should I take away this news article?"

It was embarrassing. It was the thirty-eighth time this month that his boss's future wife was in the news. Someone had taken a photo of her blowing a kiss to an actor, and it became a big deal. She had also flirted with a new, young actor, and his fans were upset.

And then...

The assistant felt weak when he read about her kissing someone passionately in the headlines. It was shocking.

"I've taken out so many articles about her before. This time, she can handle it herself."

James massaged his forehead, feeling a terrible headache coming on.

"Sir, why aren't you mad after all this?" The assistant, seeing that James was calmer than expected, asked courageously.

"It's because these are just tricks she uses to upset me."

The assistant was sweating; he didn't think it was just a trick. "Should I make an appointment with Miss Esther tonight like I usually do?"

James looked cod. "Of course. Why not?"

Half an hour later, Esther saw the usual message on her phone and made a face. It was always the same.

[No, I don't want to eat with you at all.] She typed this angrily, turned off her phone, and tossed it into her purse.

She looked up at Fletcher Carison, who looked surprised. Then, she smiled mischievously. "Fletcher, do me a favor."

Fletcher looked worried. "What do you need? Also, the director wants to talk to you. The scene we just did wasn't good. We need to reshoot it."

Esther moaned. "Why? I thought the director said it was fine. I want to go eat with my baby!"

Fletcher scratched his head, looking helpless. "It's because of the kiss scene. He said you were too far away..."

Esther sighed heavily. "Fine, let's just do a real kiss then."noveldrama

"What?" Fletcher was shocked. "The director said we could just pretend. We don't have to actually kiss."

"I know, but pretending is hard to make it look real. Let's just do a quick real kiss instead of a cheat angle. It won't hurt us."

Fletcher felt awkward and really didn't want to kiss. "Let's stick with a cheat angle. I'll make sure it looks good. We don't need to keep redoing the scene."
