The Love Book

A mouthful of old blood clogged his heart, John Lu’s expression twisted for a moment, then snorted, “Fighting with Shengtian, what do you think your chances of winning the lawsuit are?”

“I don’t know.” Phoebe Barnes nodded honestly and, with a turn of phrase, continued, “But the odds should be better if you go to my cousin, after all, he hasn’t lost a case yet.”

Never lost a case?

John Lu’s eyes rolled upwards and he thought for a second, wrinkling his eyebrows, “Who’s your cousin?”

Phoebe Barnes scratched her hair and laughed lightly, “It’s not really a cousin, but a far-flung relative, I heard my mother say, it seems to be called … Wei Ming Han.”

It’s called this, right?

She doesn’t remember very well, but once again her mother mentioned in front of her that he was very famous in the legal profession and never lost a case he took.

“…”

John Lu’s phoenix eyes flared out for a few moments and raised his eyebrows dully, “Are you sure, his name is Wei Ming Han?”

It’s true that the guy never lost a case, but he never heard him say he had any sister.

However, with his nature, even his own sister can be used as a dry sister.

He waved his hand, “Okay, let’s not talk about this, since I promised you now, you don’t have to cancel your contract, that Wei Ming Han you don’t have to look for, he is not a good thing at all.”

“You know him?” Phoebe Barnes bellyached: make it sound like you’re a good thing.

“How could this young man possibly know that kind of villain?” John Lu laughed gangly and immediately pulled away from the relationship.

“And enough of this, let me ask you, what exactly is your relationship with Kemp Ross?”

Phoebe Barnes listened to his later question, her face darkened for a moment, but she instantly regained her frankness and looked down at her phone, “It’s okay.”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

John Lu’s black eyes deepened, the face has a meaningful smile Rong, leisurely said: “your expression, say it does not matter, the ghost will believe, he is like a cold and unfeeling person how possible to carry you out of the set, but also use their own car to send you away? But to say that there is a relationship, the ghost will not believe, he is the president of the group, the entire Z country can be a handful of people, the lowest level of people like you may not be able to get involved with him in life.”

Phoebe Barnes looked bemused, “If you think so, what do you suspect? Contradict yourself?”

“But even Wind Rong knows you, so I have to wonder, huh?”

Phoebe Barnes was slightly stunned and turned her face to look at him with more than a hint of inquiry in her eyes, “How Wind Rong knows me, you can ask him yourself, but what I suspect now is that you are so desperate to work with me all of a sudden because you suspect that I have something to do with Kemp Ross? You want to use me to get close to Kemp Ross?”

John Lu, “…”

He now seriously doubts that this woman is schizophrenic, one IQ online, one IQ offline?

How can you be as stupid as a pig in the first moment, and then chase after you can’t answer.

He coughed lightly, turned his face and pretended to continue eating without looking at her, and said lightly: “This young master knows enough about Kemp Ross to get close to him and would not be so mean as to rely on a woman, besides, you probably don’t know as much about him as I do.”

Phoebe Barnes stared at him suspiciously for a moment, her small mouth twitching, “You’re right, you are indeed despicable beyond belief.”

“…”

After saying that, she suddenly stood up, her voice soft and calm, “I’ve finished trying to set me up, if there’s nothing else I can go now, right?”

Without giving him time to respond, she lifted her bag and headed out the door.

“…”

In a flash, people are gone, John Lu took a deep breath, pinched his brow, depressed to the core.

This woman is really strong in her ability to piss people off.

Phoebe Barnes got into her car in front of the restaurant and rubbed her temples lazily, “Go back.”

Kelsey Long looked at her sheepishly through the rearview mirror for a long time before she couldn’t help but ask, “What did Lu Shao say?”

Phoebe Barnes leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes and opened her lips lightly, “I haven’t promised him yet, let’s wait and see what happens.”

If nothing else, John Lu’s offer does seem tempting.

As long as there are resources, she can shoot works, better than now idle ah.

Ross’s family gave her monthly allowance, she did not use a penny, and if she could not receive the play, she was really about to be poor to solve the pot.

Kelsey Long was silent for a few seconds and let out a low voice, “Phoebe, I’m sorry.”

Phoebe Barnes didn’t make a sound with her eyes closed.

Kelsey Long added, “I didn’t discuss this with you and blame me, but I really didn’t mean to hurt you.”

“I know!” Phoebe Barnes put her hand on her forehead and spoke lazily, “Compared to other unscrupulous agents, you’ve been really good to me, I’m to blame for making it so difficult for you, I should say sorry.”

Compared to other agents who always cheat their artists to the producer’s bed, Kelsey Long to her really has been wide enough Rong, a glory and a loss, how embarrassing she is at this time, as an agent, and every time she comes out is also her, she is really not qualified to be angry.

Kelsey Long said comfortingly, “Since Lu Shao has already said, then you should go back and have a good rest in these two days, once there is any news, I will inform you at the first time.”

Phoebe Barnes didn’t say another word with a soft mumble.

She was tempted to say that she had taken enough time off, and that people were always prone to ruminating when they were idle, and Kemp Ross was now almost a piece of her mind, and every time she thought about it, she missed it more frantically.

…

Phoebe Barnes really fell back to sleep this time when she returned to Bayswater Cloud House.

How long she slept, she can not remember, only know that woke up again, was woken up by the sound of downstairs.

The time was already one in the morning.

She casually put on a coat and ran downstairs, and saw Kemp Ross drunkenly being carried back by King Pei.

She froze, “Dr. Pei, why is he drinking so much?”

King Pei also seems to drink a lot, but not drunk, just handsome face slightly red, laughing Rong still gentle, “he may be too excited tonight, drink a little more.”

Excited?

She wrinkled her eyebrows and wanted to ask something else, then she saw King Pei waving his hand, “Phoebe, it’s too late, if you don’t want to toss and turn, just leave him here, he’ll get up and clean up in the morning anyway, I’ll go first, no need to see him off.”

“Hey, Pei …”

Before Phoebe Barnes could shout, she heard movement next to her and turned her eyes to see the man sitting up from the couch and fumbling with the cup on the coffee table to pour himself a drink.

She was stunned, was he drunk?

In addition to a strong smell of alcohol, there seems to be nothing different from the usual.

King Pei said he was excited, what did he have to be excited about?

He also humiliated her severely in the hospital in the morning. Could she suspect that he was also angry then and went out to get drunk at night?
