Chapter 28 The Man Named Jeremy
Rita took her clothes and handbags and was about to leave.
Leon's following words made her stop abruptly. "There are so many big stars like you, and many people are willing to endorse the new products of the YS Group. As far as I know, at present, your best resource is the YS Group. You'd better think about how to consolidate your position. No one can force you to shoot. It's up to you. "
"You..." Rita turned to look at Leon with resentment. She knew that she should not be impulsive now! If she was really lost the spokesperson of the YS Group, her position in the circle would probably be replaced by some juniors of the younger generation.
Thinking of this, Rita put down her handbag and raised a smile on her delicately made up face. "It's fine for me to continue to shoot. But I don't want to see Sophia again. What's more, your company and I are both partners and win the cooperation. I hope Mr. Leon can understand something. For example, your CEO is on my side just now. If you have any questions, you can ask your Boss, stop gossiping in front of me! "
"Well done, Miss Rita. No wonder you're an actor." Leon nodded with a serious look on his face.
…… After John left, Sophia stayed alone for a while, which made her gradually calm down.
Although she was angry, Sophia realized that she was too impulsive after calming down!
To be honest, Rita was the spokesperson for the new products cooperated with the YS Group. She was just a little assistant of Victor, and of course Victor was in favor of Rita. As for personal matters, she had only a three-year contract with Victor, and even if they had sex, it had nothing to do with their love. Whereas Rita was widely recognized as a beautiful woman, and her status was much higher than hers, even a man wants to protect Rita, ' he thought.
But Sophia's reaction was too real.
Sophia lowered her head and got confused. At this moment, the gloomy face of Victor appeared in her mind.
Sophia smiled with self-mockery. She looked at the time and found that it was almost time to get off work, so she planned to find a place to stay for one night and return to work tomorrow.
She had divorced from Jian family, but she didn't want to go back to Xiao family now. She decided to take this opportunity to calm herself down.
The YS Group was located in the most bustling district in the city. Hotels were all over the place. Sophia easily found a hotel nearby. As soon as she pushed the door open, she bumped into a human wall!
"Well..." Sophia grunted in pain. Before she raised her head, a man's voice with mockery exploded in her ears. "Wow, are women so desperate to throw themselves to you now?"
Sophia frown. This voice was pleasant to hear, but the words it said were not ordinary harsh.
"Sir, could you please show some respect?" Sophia raised her head and said in a cold voice. She was depressed in the first place. The man's attitude reminded her of Victor. What was wrong with her recently? Why she always met such a man!
It was a young man in his twenties, dressed in leisure clothes, and his temperament was both outstanding. Especially, if you looked at him carefully, you would find that he was like a woman, but not a charming man, and he was completely feminine.
The man was supposed to be agreeable to other people, but the scornful expression on his face made people feel repulsive.
The moment Jeremy Mu saw Sophia, he was shocked. The woman in front of him...
Seeing that he was in a daze, Sophia was about to walk past him. When she brushed past him, her arm was grabbed by someone. "What's your name?"
He wanted to make a conversation with her?
Sophia amused, she looked back at the man who suddenly became serious and asked, "yes? Are men nowadays always trying to hit on a girl in such a special way? "
"You are such a glib talker." Suddenly, a light smile appeared on Jeremy Mu's face. He said, "my name is Jeremy Mu. I spoke in an indiscreet tone just now. To express my apology, would you like to have a meal with me?"
Sophia frown.
'Jeremy Mu doesn't look like a poor man. Is it true that rich people always do the same thing?' Thought Sophia? She was confused.
Sophia pushed away the hand that was holding her arm and said indifferently, "it's unnecessary."
Then, it all happened so quickly that Jeremy Mu had no chance to speak. Sophia walked straight to the stage.
After getting back to her room, Sophia threw herself on the bed. She felt relaxed and this made her feel a little better. When she was living in Jian family, there were Stellar, Jenny. They always criticized her and even her father. She wasn't happy when living with Jian family.
And in Xiao family.
Her identity in Victor's home was extremely awkward. To put it bluntly, she was just a temporary toy to warm up Victor's bed.
This idea made Sophia feel depressed.
A rush of voice interrupted her wandering thoughts. Sophia took out her phone from her handbag. It was a message from the communication company. The phone call came in the afternoon.
It was Victor.
Why did he call! Wasn't he treated strictly to her today in the studio? After hesitating for a while, Sophia finally decided to ignore the message.
It didn't take long for her to get to sleep. When Sophia was about to fall asleep, the doorbell rang and she was startled to sit up from the bed.
"Miss Sophia, this is your dinner." The waiter in the hotel uniform stood outside the room and said politely and respectfully.
Sophia glanced at the food on the cart. It was placed on a delicate and luxurious board. Unless she guessed wrong, it should be the best food in this hotel.
But she was sure that she didn't order anything about it.
"You must have sent the wrong food? I didn't order these things. " Said Sophia.
The waiter smiled and explained, "you are right. A gentleman has paid for your dinner."
Complex and confused, "a gentleman?" Exclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.
Was it... "Victor?" Did he know that she lived in this hotel? But she knew that Victor must be very mad at her as he knew that she wouldn't go back to Xiao family tonight. How could he be so kind to order
such an expensive dinner for her?
Just when Sophia was confused, the waiter explained, "yes. His name is Jeremy Mu."
Jeremy Mu?! Sophia confused at first, and then she quickly realized that it was the man she had just met in the hall of the hotel? But she had already said that she didn't need to have dinner with him. What did he mean by doing that now?
"I don't accept it. Please tell that Mister. There is really no need to do so." Sophia refused it lightly.
"What?" The waiter was in a dilemma.
All of a sudden, a familiar male voice sounded not far away from them: "I have come to your house to say sorry, Miss. Sophia, why are you so cold?"
Sophia turned to look, and it was really Jeremy Mu.
"Send the dinner to Miss Sophia's room."
Sophia frowned, but Jeremy Mu didn't give her any chance to refuse.
A waiter pushed the dining car into the room. Jeremy Mu followed him.
"Please enjoy yourself." The waiter left after he finished these words.
However, Jeremy Mu had no intention of leaving.
"Since you insist on apologizing, I accept your apology now. You can go." Although Jeremy Mu looked much more pleasant now, Sophia didn't want to make things complicated.
"What's the hurry? I haven't had dinner either. How about having dinner together? "
"You are leaving after eating?" Sophia asked.
"Yes." Jeremy Mu replied positively.
Sophia took this words seriously, but it was obvious that Jeremy Mu didn't take it seriously. After dinner, Jeremy Mu made a new request, "there's a bar upstairs. Let's have a drink."
"No, I won't go." Sophia refused without hesitation, "you said you would leave after lunch. Don't you want to break your words?"
Jeremy Mu's face darkened, "I just want to stay with you for a longer time and pay more attention to you."
Sophia was shocked by the sudden change of Jeremy Mu. He had been talking and laughing with her all the time just now. Why did he suddenly become melancholy?
"It's too late. I don't think it's a good idea. Maybe next time," Sophia surged in her heart, but she still refused him.
Jeremy Mu didn't go on with her words, but asked, "I think you have something on your mind. Would you like to talk to a stranger?"
It seemed that she had been poked to the painful point. She looked away from the man in an unnatural manner and pretended that she had nothing to worry about. "No, I'm fine," she said
HMM... She was fine.
Jeremy Mu chuckled and looked at Sophia with an expression that didn't seem to believe her, "if it's all right, you won't check your phone again and again? You have just been eating for a while. You have read it over ten times. Are you waiting for someone's call? "
Frowning, Sophia took a sip of the juice to hide her rising feelings. "No, I didn't."
She wasn't, because she didn't know what she was expecting.
"Will tough words deceive your heart?" Jeremy Mu replied without hesitation, "let's go. We have a drink in the bar and tell you a secret by the way."
Hearing this, Sophia looked at Jeremy Mu with her clear eyes. After hesitating for a moment, she nodded in silence.
…… The bar was located on the same floor as it was. The business of the hotel had always been good, so the atmosphere of the bar was always warm. And at night, the atmosphere of the bar was the most lively time.
In her impression, it was the first time Sophia came to a bar. She didn't like too much noise, so she didn't like the atmosphere of the bar. But today, the wantonness of the music made her feel inexplicably happy. The happiness suppressed her depression and made her feel relaxed.
Jeremy Mu ordered a table full of fruit dessert and wine, and took a quiet seat in a spacious space.
"This is too much for two of us." Frowning, Sophia pointed to the table full of food.
But Jeremy Mu seemed to be aggrieved and said, "I don't know you like that kind of cuisine, so I ordered it. Have a try."
Sophia couldn't help but twitch her mouth. Why did she hear it so familiar to her!
Wasn't that what Victor had told her! She really couldn't understand the world of rich people! They didn't know what others liked, so they bought all of them?
'They are too rich.'
However, since Jeremy Mu didn't care, it would seem like she was overthinking things.
"Believe it or not, knowing you is the only happy thing for me recently." Jeremy Mu clinked glasses with Sophia and suddenly said. There was no sign of joking on his handsome face.
Sophia suddenly became speechless, and she didn't know how to continue. In the end, she had to raise the corners of her mouth and said politely, "I'm glad to meet you too."
