Kristen comforted him in a soft voice. She felt sorry for him, but she did not show any emotion. She just said to him, “It’s all in the past. You have to look forward.” Ethan held Kristen. He seemed to feel a sense of security as soon as he felt her temperature. After a long time, the two finally let go of each other. Ethan said, “You have never mentioned your family. What does your family do?” Hearing this question, Kristen was stunned for a second. She blinked her eyes and quickly thought of how to organize her words. Then she said, “My families are ordinary people. My parents passed away when I was a child, but I have a grandfather who loves me. I grew up under the protection of my grandfather, so my life was happy.” It was the first time Ethan had heard Kristen mention her family. Although he had already investigated her family background, his heart still ached when he heard her say it out loud. He held her tightly, “It doesn’t matter. I will be by your side in th
In the office, Scarlett and Ethan were sitting together. From where Kristen was they seemed a little intimate. “Ethan, what’re you doing?” Kristen asked word by word. When she thought of what she had just heard on the phone, her heart seemed to sink in an instant. Ethan stood up abruptly and looked at her. Jacob, who had just arrived, apologized repeatedly, “Mr. Wharton, I’m sorry...” Ethan stretched out his hand, indicating for Jacob to say no more. Only then did Jacob leave the room. Ethan looked at Kristen and asked flatly, “Why are you here?” At this moment, Kristen felt that she was the biggest joke in the world. She sneered, “Why? Shouldn’t I have come?” As soon as she finished speaking, Scarlett, who was sitting next to Ethan, stood up. She turned around with a smile and looked at Kristen, “Hello, Miss Healey.” Kristen looked at the face in front of her in disbelief and took a step back subconsciously. She unconsciously covered her mouth. A lot of details
“I’m fine.” Kristen didn’t want to have anything to do with Jason. After all, he was Taylor’s younger brother. Thinking of this, Kristen deliberately kept a distance from him. “The final is tomorrow. Is your team ready?” Jason chuckled, “I’m the singer king. How could I lose to you?” Not to be outdone, Kristen said, “That might not be the case. It’s embarrassing to lose.” Jason didn’t believe that he would lose. Then, he thought of something and said, “Why don’t we make a bet?” Kristen raised her eyes and looked at him warily. Jason then said, “Bet on our competition tomorrow, OK?” Kristen was not interested at all. “Childish. Not interested.” “You are afraid, aren’t you?” Jason’s words were provocative, which completely aroused Kristen’s competitive spirit. “What is the stake?” Jason smiled. “If I win tomorrow, promise me one thing.” “What?” Kristen felt that this guy had bad intentions. Jason replied, “Sing a song with me.” “That’s i
Kristen nodded and her eyes lit up because of the fans. After the car stopped, Anna got out first. Then, the door opened, and Kristen heard waves of shouts, “Kristen, Kristen!” Kristen waved her hand at her fans and was instantly surrounded by a group of fans. Some of them wanted her signatures and some wanted to take a photo with her. Kristen accompanied them for a while and then entered the building. However, what Kristen didn’t know was that as soon as she entered, a man in a cap lowered the brim of his cap in a black car around the street corner. Sitting next to him, Scarlett curled her lips and said with a little disdain, “Was it this Kristen who brought you to prison?” “Don’t underestimate her. She’s Ethan’s sweetheart now.” The man slowly raised his head and revealed his shocking face. Steve’s eyes were cold as he continued, “Thank you for saving me from prison. I will return this favor to you sooner or later.” Scarlett didn’t care about his thanks, “Don’t m
However, Kristen said, “I’m sorry, Mr. Wharton, but I’m not interested in what’s going on between you two. I have to go to the second round of the competition soon. Need to go.” With that, Kristen was about to leave. Ethan grabbed her arm and pulled hard, and she was already in his arms. “Kristen, why are you pushing me away?” Kristen was angry at Ethan’s words. He held her with the same hand that he had held Scarlett, making her feel a little nauseous. “Mr. Wharton.” Kristen pushed him away. “Since your real girlfriend is back, what reason do you have to keep me, a substitute, by your side? Your Miss Alene is back, you should go and accompany her, why come to me?” Ethan smiled when he saw Kristen’s angry face, “Kristen, are you jealous?” However, Kristen denied it subconsciously. “Ethan, what are you talking about?” Ethan hugged her again, “Kristen, my relationship with her is not the same as you think. It’s just that we have some things to deal with now.
The contempt in Scarlett’s eyes turned to rage. Kristen did not miss the change in her eye and she continued, “So? Do you agree?” Scarlett giggled, “So it’s for money. But Kristen, aren’t you asking for a bit too much?” Kristen clenched her fists, “But Ethan is worth so much, isn’t he? If you mean it, this little money should not be a problem.” Scarlett said with forced lightness, “You’re right, one billion isn’t much to Ethan and TNK Group, but what makes you think your departure is worth that much, Kristen? Believe it or not, I can sue you for extortion.” Kristen found Scarlett hilarious. “Miss Alene, you are the one who came to me. And the conversation between us has been recorded.” With that, Kristen took out a recording pen. Because she had been in show business for years and had some accidents before, the recording pen had already become one of her carry-on items. However, Scarlett’s expression turned ugly when she took it out. “Kristen, what are you doing
Scarlett did not seem to take his words seriously, “Ethan, what are you talking about? I know I was wrong back then but I had apologized for that. Besides, Ethan, I have no other thoughts. I just want to stay by your side, and Jack. Our family will always be together.” “Enough.” Ethan broke in. “Miss Alene, please don’t joke with me.” He didn’t believe that he had a child with her at all. “I’m not joking with you, Ethan. If you’re in a bad mood, I’ll be off now. Let’s talk after you’ve calmed down a bit.” “Get out.” Ethan gave the order. Although Scarlett wasn’t willing, she left the ward. Ethan was very annoyed and called Jacob, “Send me the location of Kristen.” Jacob on the other side of the phone was stunned for a moment and quickly said, “Yes, Mr. Wharton.” Two minutes later, Ethan received a message about where Kristen was. Without any hesitation, he got out of bed, changed his clothes, and went out. ... Kristen had just joined the production c
Kristen asked indignantly, “Don’t you think you’re annoying?” Elvis said shamelessly, “I don’t think so.” Kristen was speechless. And she quickened her steps. Elvis followed her closely. Kristen couldn’t stand it anymore. She stopped and said, “Enough, Elvis. Are you done with your joke?” Elvis was no longer as casual as before. He said seriously, “Kristen, I’m not kidding you.” “But you...” Before she could finish her words, Kristen saw Ethan standing not far away, so she swallowed the words that came to her lips. Elvis noticed her abnormality and followed her gaze. He narrowed his eyes slightly, “Is he... your lover?” Kristen glared at him. “Shut up!” But Elvis thought of what had happened earlier. He had even asked someone to investigate Ethan. He knew Ethan was a big shot in Nangania. Ethan walked toward Kristen. Without saying a word, he took Kristen’s hand and was about to leave with her. Kristen frowned and said unhappily, “Ethan, what are you do
