Love Contract

Chapter 320 Extra Story Misfortunes (Part One)

Early the next morning, Barry woke up hungover and with a splitting headache.

"Damn it!" He sat up from the bed groggily and cursed at the wind. Outside, it was already dawn. He looked around to find the woman, but she was nowhere in sight.

The woman last night was absolutely not Mary! The anger in his heart swelled, almost reaching the limit of explosion. He was sure not to let go of the crew of Wang Zhaojun, as well as that woman!

Barry frowned and quickly put on his clothes. He would not stay in this disgusting place for one more second! Thinking of this, he pulled the thin summer quilt away from his shirt.

However, he suddenly stopped his movements for a second. His face darkened as the memories of the woman flashed in his mind. 'Fine. I'll spare that woman,' he decided.

After getting dressed, he was out of the club within ten minutes. He was so keen to leave that he did not even bother taking a shower. On the way, he called his assistant and ordered him to resolve the problem. Such a trifle was not worth his time and effort in person.

In the hotel, Selah was awakened by a loud knock on the door.

"Hmm..." She turned her head as she slowly gained consciousness after being knocked out. Struggling, she sat up from the sofa and walked towards the door.

Click.

As soon as she opened the door, the director of Wang Zhaojun came in with several other people, almost knocking her down.

"Where is he? Find him for me!" the director shouted angrily. "Find that bastard Jerry!"

"Director," Selah asked in confusion while the crew rummaged the hotel room, "what happened?"

"Where is Jerry?" The director turned around and stared at Selah.

"I... I don't know!" Selah shook her head immediately. The last thing she saw before fainting was Jerry packing his things up.

"Director Wang, he is not here in the room."

"Director, I didn't see Jerry either."

"That bastard!" The director cursed with his hands on his hips. He looked at Selah with annoyed expression and explained, "Jerry took the money from the crew to gamble, but lost! That is why he suddenly ran away. Now, tell me! Were you colluding with him? Where is he?!"

With her eyes wide open, Selah waved her hand and answered in a trembling voice, "No, I don't know! I didn't collude with him!"

"Of course, I know you wouldn't dare." The director snorted and looked at Selah from head to toe in a scrutinizing manner. "Besides, last night, Jerry sent you to someone's bed. Unfortunately, he only irritated the big boss! Our cooperation is over! Your contract was terminated!"

Selah's face turned pale as if blood had drained from her body in a matter of seconds. At the same time, a sense of humiliation welled up in her heart. It turned out that everyone knew what had happened last night! She was now on the verge of collapse.

She fell down on the sofa, her eyes red and moist with tears. Although she was saved, in the end, her fate was ultimately destroyed. It was not until she heard the door of the hotel room close that she returned to her senses. She was once again alone in the room.

Selah did not sign a contract with any company. She just followed Jerry everywhere. Her heart sank when she realized that the time she had spent with him was all in vain. He promised her that he would set up a studio when everything went well. But... what about now? Embezzling the money of the crew and escaping...

At the thought of this, Selah panicked. Sitting on the sofa, she suddenly saw her bag was wide open. She then rushed to her bag.

"My ID and my money!" Selah muttered as she rummaged through her handbag, but she did not find any of her important items inside. Did Jerry take all her important belongings away? Bastard!

Selah hurried back to her bedroom to look for her suitcase. Unfortunately, the contents were all gone.

A sense of sadness and fear came out from the bottom of her heart. She slumped onto the suitcase with empty eyes. Now, she was penniless, having no ID, no family or a friend in Los Angeles. She was abandoned miserably in a country a thousand miles from her home.

It was as if she had returned to the dark period of her life again.

"Ah!" Selah held her head and cried bitterly. Her face was wet with tears because of humiliation and helplessness.

When Jerry left, he also checked out of the hotel room. Selah had no choice but to leave in the afternoon. Walking out of the hotel alone with her empty bag, she wanted to go to the crew of Wang Zhaojun to ask for help. When she arrived at the place where they were supposed to stay, she was told that the crew was flying back to China. By then, they were all at the airport.

Jerry had made such a big mess. It was already very kind of the crew not to make trouble for Selah.

The streets of Los Angeles were crowded. Selah stood on the street alone, helpless, and broken. Although she seemed like a traveler, she could not blend in.

It was said that misfortune never came alone.

Selah wanted to go to the embassy to ask for help. Unfortunately, she came across a robber along the way. She tried her hardest to resist the robber, just enough to gain the attention of the police officers nearby. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

The robber and Selah were taken to the police office together. However, because Selah did not have her ID card, she was regarded as an illegal immigrant. No matter how hard she explained, the police officer just shook his head. He did not seem to believe any of her words.

Nevertheless, she would be deported back to China.

Hearing that, she was relieved. She did not have to worry about going back to her hometown. As long as she could come back, have a place to stay, and have relatives to rely on, she would not be too miserable and pitiful.

In the general manager's office of GM Universing Studios. Barry listened to the assistant's report and nodded slightly in response.

"The crew has arrived at the airport. The director says he is very sorry for what has happened last night. That woman... She is a new actress and will not appear in front of you in the future."

"Okay," Barry replied shortly. "You can go out now."

"Yes, boss."

Silence returned to the office. When his assistant was gone, Barry frowned and rubbed his forehead. A new actress? To get the acting opportunity? Was it really worth it to sell herself?

Barry eventually forgot that night. He thought it was just an accident after all.

After a while, Mary came to the United States and happened to meet him by accident. This made him postpone his trip back to China. Many years later, Barry had wondered if he had returned to China at that time, would he have met Selah earlier. Unfortunately, he could not change what had happened in the past.

Selah's journey back to the country was a long and winding one. As she came back to A City again, her eyes were full of tears. She was optimistic and on the point of becoming famous when she left for the US. However, when she came back, all that was left to her was pain and horrible memories. From then on, she learned to rely on herself. It did not matter to her anymore if she had lost her virginity that way. As long as she was still alive and kicking, she was contented.

As for Jerry, she would never let him go if she saw him again one day!

Lying in the bathtub of her apartment for a long time, she wanted to cleanse away all her humiliation that night. Moreover, she wanted to wash away and forget all her misery and frustration in the past few days. She figured she would pull herself together and her life would return to normal soon.

It took her more than half a month to get her ID card and passport back. After that, she began looking for a job.

"Hello? Is this Glamour Magazine? I would like to apply for the plane model. I used to shoot commercials. Oh. No vacancy? I see. Thank you anyway."

"Hello? Director Wang? I heard that you were going to shoot a new movie. Is there any vacancy I can apply for? Oh. I understand. The crew is full. Okay then. Thanks."

Selah kept calling everyone she could think of. She even contacted different companies in the entertaining industry. But because of what Jerry had done, no one was willing to hire her. What was

more, all the debts Jerry owed fell on Selah, which made her already difficult life even more difficult.
