The Doted Lady Is So Wild

After returning to Nangania, Kristen went to the Oracle film set again.

After receiving the news of William’s return, Kristen sent a message to Jorden.

“William probably won’t dare come here for an entire year.”

When Jorden received the message, he was in the morning meeting. After replying to a few words, he continued the meeting with a serious face.

Chole opened WeChat and felt disappointed.

“When will you dare to go home?”

“Alas.”

Kristen sighed. Next to her, Anna was curious. “Kristen, why are you sighing? What happened?”

Kristen tapped her forehead and ordered, “Go, go, go buy me a cup of Black Café to refresh myself.”

Anna nodded. “Okay.”

“Kristen.”

The leading actress ran over and asked cautiously, “Can I sit down?”

“Yes, of course.”

Kristen nodded and looked at her hesitant face. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing. I just don’t want to stay in the dressing room with some people, so I came here to avoid the trouble.”

Kristen could guess that she was referring to the second female lead.

As soon as Anna arrived at the set today, she inquired about the gossip. It was said that the second female lead relied on her connections to put on a lot of shows.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

After all, it was a movie, and the duration was too short. It was inevitable that they would care about how many shots there were.

Kristen didn’t want to poke her nose into other people’s business, so she pretended that she didn’t understand.

The first female lead did not seem to regard her as an outsider at all and started complaining about the second female lead in front of her.

Kristen was getting impatient. Anna happened to return at this time.

She had hoped that Anna would help her out. Unexpectedly, after listening to a few words, Anna began to blame the second female lead, too.

Kristen silently drank coffee without a word and sent a message to Ethan.

Kristen: What are you doing?

Cash cow: Meeting.

Kristen: Make more money~

Cash cow: Okay.

Kristen: I’m a little thirsty.

Cash cow: I’m going to visit you after finishing my work.

Kristen: I want to eat Chufu in the east of the city. Can you buy me that?

Cash cow: Okay.

The two of them chatted passionately.

“Miss Healey.”

When the second female lead appeared outside the dressing room, her expression immediately turned awkward.

“Miss Healey, we’re going to order hot pot at noon. Would you like to join us, Miss Healey? This hot pot is authentic and the taste is very good.”

Kristen did not refuse. “Thank you.”

The first female lead felt embarrassed and found an excuse to leave.

When the hot pot arrived, the second female didn’t eat with Kristen and Anna. Instead, she considerately ordered a hot pot for them.

Anna put half a plate of meat into the hot pot and whispered gossip, “Kristen, I thought she was going to eat with us. But she is still too much. How could she have more scenes than the first female lead? Who knows what method she used? She even tried to hook up with Mr. Wharton last time, humph.”

Kristen pinched her face grumpily. “Are you stupid? The director is notoriously unkind, do you think she wants to add the scene if she wants to add it? Think about why the leading actress complained to us.”

Anna covered her face as realization dawned on her after a long while. “She wants you to defend her against injustice.”

She slammed her chopsticks down, her face full of anger.

“She’s too much of a bitch. I thought she was a good person. Even if being as good as you, the role is still very small. No matter how powerful the second female lead is, can she be more powerful than Mr. Wharton? That’s infuriating.”

“She is a bitch, and you are an idiot.”

Kristen, on the other hand, wasn’t angry. This was the entertainment industry. As long as nobody provoked her, she could treat it peacefully.

“Kristen, eat less meat and eat more vegetables.”

Anna stop Kristen from eating meat and picked up the meat into her bowl confidently.

“…”

By the time the filming ended, Ethan still hadn’t arrived.

Kristen was planning to go straight to her office when she received a call from an unfamiliar number.

“Who is it?”

“I’m Ethan’s father. If you are free, please come over. I want to talk to you, and I’ll send you the location.”

After that, he hung up the phone.

“Ethan’s father? Why is he looking for me?” Kristen thought to herself.

Kristen looked confused and thought for a moment before calling Ethan.

No one answered.

After sending a message, Kristen asked the driver to drive her to the location shared by Ethan’s father.

In front of the hotel’s private room, Anna cheered Kristen on. “It’s your first time meeting your future father-in-law. Come on, Kristen.”

Kristen didn’t think much of it, but her words made her nervous.

She pressed the doorbell and a man in a suit opened the door after a while.

“Miss Healey, Mr. Collins has been waiting for you for a long time. Please come in.”

Kristen nodded and walked in.

Anna cheered silently behind her.

As soon as she entered, she saw a square-faced man sitting on the sofa with a serious look on his face.

Kristen was glad that

Ethan was like his mother.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Collins.”

Kristen casually greeted him. Not deliberately flattering, nor deliberately distant.

“Sit down.”

Mr. Collins gestured and looked her up and down.

Kristen sat down and took the initiative to ask, “Mr. Collins, why did you call me here?”

Mr. Collins crossed his legs. “I heard that Miss Healey has lost her parents and only has one grandfather?”

“Yes.”

Kristen nodded and thought to herself, “I still have five brothers.”

“You’re a celebrity, Miss Healey. Your time is precious, so I’ll get straight to the point. I’ve already arranged a marriage for Ethan. Your family background is ordinary, and it’s not a good match for a family like ours. Miss Healey won’t be able to help Ethan much in the future.”

“If Ethan accepts the marriage, the Collins family will be his in the future.”

This was a familiar plot.

Kristen was embarrassed. Seeing that he had remained silent for a long time, she took the initiative to ask, “Is there anything missing?”

“What?” It was his turn to be confused.

Kristen narrowed her eyes. “Compensation fees.”

Disdain could be seen in Mr. Collins’s eyes as he gestured to his assistant.

“Consider this check compensation for you.”

The assistant handed her a check for five million yuan.

Kristen only glanced at it and sighed. “Mr. Collins might not understand the market price in the entertainment industry. I earn more than that from filming a year.”

Mr. Collins was stunned and asked impatiently, “Then, Miss Healey, please name your price.”

“How much is Ethan worth?”

Kristen said slowly as his face darkened.

Kristen said with a smile, “Mr. Collins, I’m just kidding. I’m in a relationship with Ethan, and he built TNK Group by himself. It seems that no one helped him.”

Mr. Collins’s face darkened even further.

Kristen said straightforwardly, “Maybe Mr. Collins thinks that I can’t help Ethan, but at least I love him from the bottom of my heart. That’s enough.”
