Chapter 311

Hayden noticed Wyneth's impatience. After all, the cramped space under the table was uncomfortable for her, and she couldn't stay there for too long.While Hayden was talking, he saw Wyneth stretching her legs out below. Perhaps due to her awkward position, or because of something else entirely, her foot cramped up suddenly. Startled by the pain, she unintentionally jolted back, knocking against the table.When Hayden saw the pain on her face, his expression abruptly changed, and he snapped in a low voice, "Out!"Emma was flabbergasted, standing there ready to leave when suddenly she heard a noise coming from under the table. Upon another glance, she saw Hayden's face had changed, demanding they leave immediately.Dexter rushed over. "Ms. Winthrop, let's go, let's go." Having said that, he pulled her toward the office and closed the door behind them.Just before the door shut, Emma looked back, catching sight of Hayden who was usually cold and aloof sitting on a chair, bending dow

Chapter 312

Sadly, Wyneth had long passed the stage of acting out of pure infatuation. After all, her heart had been crushed and put back together; it was not the same as it had once been. Having realized this, she watched him work with a blank expression.As Hayden finally looked up at her, he asked, "Feeling better?"Wyneth averted her eyes, her tone icy. "Much better.""Don't hide under the tables next time," Hayden said, somewhat helplessly.At this, Wyneth cast him a mocking glance. "So your artists can just walk in and misunderstand the situation? Is that what you'd prefer?"Hayden retorted. "Why would they misunderstand? They're allowed in here, so why wouldn't you be?"Wyneth did not want to engage in this argument. She planted her palms on the table's edge, hopping off the table. Even though Hayden looked sullen as she came down, he still lent a helping hand. After landing, she immediately shrugged off his hand."If there's nothing else, I'll be going."Without giving him a second

He had thought she would come knocking, asking urgently what was going on. Instead, what greeted him was the sound of the next room's door opening and closing. Luke's expression shifted, quickly opening his door to see, only to find Wyneth was no longer outside. His expression soured even more.'What a heartless woman!' he thought.As Wyneth packed her things, she came across the divorce agreement again. Considering the alimony Hayden had given her, she sighed deeply.'If I'd known he would give me so much wealth, I wouldn't have signed it; I would've let the lawyer erase my name first.'For her, money was not a big deal. She had never lacked for anything. And her feelings for him had been freely given, without anything expected in return. Now, in exchange, she had received this tremendous alimony. The thought of it was ironic, almost amusing.She stowed away the divorce papers, quickly organized her things, and then received a call from Yoyo."Babe, I just finished filming. Let

Wyneth could not have cared less whether Luke had OCD or not. Even if he did not, she had to pretend he did now—Yoyo had tried to shake his hand, and he had declined. So she needed to give her good friend an excuse to save face.Yoyo awkwardly withdrew her hand, muttering under her breath, "A-list celebrities, always with their unknown quirks."Luke's gaze happened to fall on the suitcase by Wyneth feet. His already sour expression turned even worse at the sight. He furrowed his brows and asked, "You're leaving?""Yes." Wyneth nodded. "I've wrapped up my shooting here. I'm heading back to the other set to pack, and then I'm leaving.""So, once you're done packing, you're leaving just like that?" Luke squinted at her.Not giving it much thought, Wyneth simply answered, "Yep, that's right."'So,' Luke cursed inwardly, 'she dressed up all fancy today, went out to dine with God-knows-who, came back without any thought of the meal she owes me, and she's all packed and ready to leave.

In Wyneth's mind, Luke was a man of unpredictable moods."Alright, you don't seem the type to pull my leg, but..." Yoyo squinted, gripping Wyneth's wrist and continued, "Luke stays right next door, and he's so incredibly handsome; don't you have even a little bit of interest in him?"At this, Wyneth wore an expression of speechless frustration."And you two even had those romantic scenes together. Haven't you—""Enough." Wyneth cut her off with a sigh. "What on earth goes on in your head all day? He's my senior; how could I possibly have feelings for him? Besides...""Besides what?"A vision of another man's handsome, aloof features flashed across her mind. Wyneth pursed her lips, avoiding Yoyo's gaze. "Nothing much. You know he's a top-tier actor, and I'm just some nobody. We're just fortunate to share the same manager, that's all. I'm not going to think about such impossible things.""Huh, you're right. You and Luke may share a manager, but let's be real, your celeb statuses a

Wyneth: [This is the address of the restaurant. Do you think you'll be free at noon?]Luke immediately clicked on the message to see the restaurant's address. After reading it, he could not help but smirk. He did not reply immediately, but just cleared his throat, held his phone and silently counted for about thirty seconds before leisurely typing a response.Luke: [I'm not sure if I'll be free. I have to shoot today.]His reply came off as aloof yet dignified. He had painstakingly planned everything the previous afternoon, but Wyneth had gone out with someone else, and he was still in the dark about the gender of this mystery person.After replying, Luke said to the assistant next to him, "I need to go out this afternoon."Upon hearing this, the assistant said, "Seriously? You just took off yesterday afternoon. If you're planning to bail again today, it's not going to look too good, you know?""Really? I've finished shooting all the scenes scheduled for this afternoon. Is there

'She still looks stunning as always, but what does that say? It says she didn't give a damn about meeting me, so she couldn't be bothered to put on her makeup or even to keep up appearances,' Luke said in his mind.Once upon a time, he would have found such authenticity refreshing. In fact, he still did. But after what had happened yesterday, his mood was decidedly gloomy. He could not fathom why he was feeling this way. Even after they reached their private dining room, and Wyneth was asking him what he wanted to eat, Luke was still sulking."Luke?"He snapped back to reality."Anything you don't like? Any food allergies or dietary restrictions? Can you handle cilantro? Spicy food?"Luke was in no mood to entertain her, mumbling, "Whatever."Wyneth, who had been studying the menu earnestly, glanced up at his curt response. Seeing his morose expression, she sighed internally.'Luke's mood swings back and forth like a pendulum. Lucky for me, after this peace-offering dinner, ther

Hearing Wyneth's firm assurance that she would not be dating, Luke first let out a breath of relief, then immediately furrowed his brows.'Not gonna date? Not with anyone at all?'"Wait..." Luke's gaze fell on her face. For some reason, he thought he detected a trace of emotion around her eyes. He squinted."Why wouldn't you be dating? What, did you get your heart broken or something?"Wyneth did not know how to respond. Her eyes blinked rapidly, a nervous tic, and a subtle tremor passed through her lips. She could not help but interject. "We... We're here to eat, remember, Luke?""Mmhmm." Luke nodded. "We're here to eat, so?""So, can we just eat?"Luke stared at her, poker-faced. "Ah, no. We can't."Wyneth was struck dumb."After all," Luke continued, "without you clarifying, who knows if I might get dragged into some scandal or something like that in the future? We do share a manager, after all."'So now it's my fault we have the same manager? But even if we do, so what?'

"What do you take me for? The type of man to make a lady pay for dinner?" Luke said, aghast.Hearing this, Wyneth realized her behavior was inappropriate. She was just worried that Luke would be sour over it and cause her trouble later on. The agreement was she would be treating him to dinner, so if she did not pay, she would not feel at ease. However, she could not say all that outright, so she chose her words carefully."Of course not. You're generous and not the type to hold a grudge, especially not over a dinner bill. I just... I said I'd treat you, and if I don't pay, it won't sit well with me."She thought to herself, 'He should be okay with that, right?'True to her expectation, Luke's expression softened considerably. "If it really bothers you so much, just return the favor next time."He thought, 'Does she think I'm stupid? With her thoughtless and insensitive ways, if I don't pick up the tab this time, what other excuse would I have to get her to treat me next time?'So

Chapter 320

'Hayden? Wasn't he supposed to stay back for some meeting? Why's he here?'Wyneth had planned on waiting here for Benedict, and then taking care of him during the journey. If Hayden was not present, she and Benedict could avoid attracting attention. Even if someone did notice them, they would probably just think she knew an elder of the Hamilton family and that was why they were together. But now with Hayden here, she did not know how to behave around Benedict. Moreover, just interacting was one thing; she did not even dare to approach him.But in the end, for the sake of the elderly man, Wyneth put everything aside for the moment and stood up with a smile."Grandpa." She greeted.Hayden's arrival drew some attention from the people in the VIP lounge. They all turned to look at him and then started whispering among themselves. Everyone saw Benedict warmly engaging in conversation with a young woman in the VIP room, his kind face full of smiles. Meanwhile, Hayden paused not far from
