The Doted Lady Is So Wild

After a pause, Director William continued, “Actually, there is another reason from me. I don’t know why, but I vaguely see the shadow of one person on you, especially the similarity between your charms.”

Kristen seemed to have thought of something and asked, “Excuse me, the person you mentioned is your friend?”

Director William smiled gently. “She is no longer alive. She is also an actress, but you may not have heard of her name in your generation, but she was quite popular at that time.”

“Are you talking about Pamela Oliver?”

When the name was mentioned again many years later, Director William was stunned for a second. He looked at Kristen incredulously and asked, “Do you know her?”

Kristen wanted to say that she was my mother.

But facing Director William’s expectant eyes, she still shook her head slightly.

“I’ve watched her movie In This World, so I have some impression of her.”

Disappointment flashed through Director William’s eyes and he returned to normal in an instant.

“She is a good actress. Kristen, you will also be a good one.”

After speaking, Director William stood up and patted Kristen on the shoulder.

“Work hard. You will have your own future.”

After Director William left, Kristen took out her phone and called Ethan. However, the phone rang for a long time and no one answered. Just then, the assistant director came to call her to standby. Kristen hurriedly put the phone in her pocket and entered the scene.

After a day of filming, Kristen felt exhausted. However, the first thing she did as soon as she got in the car was to take out her mobile phone. Unexpectedly, there were no other messages on the screen except for a few text messages from the mobile-phone operators.

Kristen was disappointed. “Why you don’t answer the phone?”

“Anna, I won’t be going back to the hotel tonight. Take me home.”

Anna looked at the time and said, “It’s already 11 pm. You still have scenes to shoot tomorrow morning.”

Kristen couldn’t care less. “It doesn’t matter. I’ll be there tomorrow morning.”

Anna did not know what was wrong with Kristen, but she still followed her instructions and drove to the villa. When she arrived home, the servants were already asleep. She heard some noise outside. Then Aunt Kate came out with a coat.

“Miss Healey, it’s so late. Why are you back so late?”

Kristen apologized for disturbing Aunt Kate, but she still asked, “Where’s Ethan? Is he back?”

Aunt Kate said, “Mr. Wharton hasn’t come back yet.”

Hearing this, Kristen frowned. He didn’t answer the phone or go home. Where was he going?

“Miss Healey, it’s getting late. Please rest early.”

“I see, Aunt Kate. You go to sleep first. Don’t worry about me.”

After saying that, Kristen went upstairs. Everything in the room was the same as before, but Ethan’s aura was not here, which made her feel a little uncomfortable.

At this moment, the video conference had just ended, and Ethan was obviously a little tired. He was rubbing the space between his eyebrows. At this time, Jacob hurried over.

“Mr. Wharton, Miss Healey called in the afternoon.”

Ethan hurriedly raised his eyes and looked at him when he heard this. “Give me your phone.”

Jacob handed the phone over. Ethan looked at the time on the screen. It was almost one o’clock in the morning. It was so late that she probably have fallen asleep.

Forget it.

She was still fuming. It’s already so late, so don’t disturb her.

Ethan put his phone away. Jacob asked hurriedly, “Mr. Wharton, will you return it tonight?”

When he thought of that empty room, he simply waved his hand.

“I won’t go back. I’ll stay in the office overnight.”

Jacob left sensibly. Ethan took a shower in the lounge and then lay down on the bed. When he turned over, he heard his cell phone vibrate.

Ethan sat up subconsciously and looked at the screen. It was Kristen’s phone number.

There was a flash of surprise in his eyes, and then he answered the phone.

“Why haven’t you slept yet?”

Ethan’s magnetic voice rang in her ears and Kristen immediately felt at ease. She thought that something had happened to him, so she didn’t answer her phone or give her a reply.

Kristen looked at the night sky outside the window and said, “I can’t sleep alone.”

Ethan narrowed his eyes and looked at the time. He couldn’t wait to put on his coat and asked, “You’re at the crew’s hotel?”

Kristen replied, “Nope, I am in the villa.”

A smile flashed through the depths of Ethan’s eyes. Then he took the car keys and walked out of the office.

“Wait for me. I’ll be back soon.”

The corners of Kristen’s lips curled into a smile and she replied, “Okay.” She then hung up the phone.

About 20 minutes later, the sound of a car could be heard coming from the outside. Next, familiar footsteps could be heard coming from the stairs.

The door was pushed open, and Ethan’s figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Seeing his anxious look, Kristen couldn’t help but ask.

“Why did you come back so soon?”

The next second, the man stepped forward and hugged her. “Because I know someone is waiting for me.”

Kristen lay in his embrace and felt his heartbeat. She looked up and stared at the side of his face.

“Not angry anymore?” Ethan asked. Kristen shook her head.Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

“I’m sorry, I misunderstood you before. Thank you for fighting for the opportunity for me.”

Ethan was not used to the change in her attitude. “Are you serious?”

Kristen nodded.

“Director William has already told me that you won this audition opportunity for me, but this opportunity is particularly precious to me.”

Ethan breathed a sigh of relief, “As long as you don’t blame me.”

Kristen reached out and hugged him. For some reason, she felt at ease. There was only a contract between them, but it seemed that she was tempted.

Early the next morning, Kristen woke up early in order to rush to the crew. She slowly lifted the quilt and got out of bed, but accidentally knocked down the things on the bed.

Kristen reached out to pick it up. It was Ethan’s ID card. She glanced briefly at it and then put it back.

After getting in the car, Kristen was drowsy. She leaned against the seat and fell asleep.

“Kristen, wake up. We’re here.”

Kristen opened her eyes and looked around. She had arrived at the filming site. She unfastened her safety belt and asked casually, “What’s the date today?”

Anna replied, “It’s 16th today. What’s wrong, Kristen?”

“16th?”

Kristen thought of the ID card she had seen in the morning. Ethan seems to have celebrated his birthday on the 18th of this month, namely the day after tomorrow?

“What’s the matter, Kristen?”

Kristen had come up with a plan in her mind. She thought for a moment and said, “I want to ask for leave on the 18th.”

Anna was puzzled. She wanted to know what was going on, but Kristen was already walking toward the crew.
