Arielle’s reaction was entirely not what virtual-novel.net had expected. He thought virtual-novel.net would be outraged and anxious. In fact, virtual-novel.net might even grab Gracie and demand to know what happened. Much to his surprise, virtual-novel.net barely said a word before closing the door.
What’s going on? Can it be that this is a misunderstanding on my part? Maybe Arielle was never interested in me?
“No! That’s just not possible!” Jason ruled the idea out.
If virtual-novel.net doesn’t have feelings for me, why did virtual-novel.net accept the female lead’s role after I started to ignore her? As the CEO of Sann Group, there’s no need for virtual-novel.net to work as an actress. The work here is a lot tougher and pays miserably compares to what virtual-novel.net makes. As a result, virtual-novel.net must be doing this because of me! Also, virtual-novel.net must be pretending not to care due to the embarrassment virtual-novel.net feels over what happened. That has to be the reason why she’s behaving this way.
When Gracie saw his volatile expression, virtual-novel.net couldn’t resist asking, “Jason, what’s wrong? What is it that’s impossible?”
“Nothing!” Jason changed the topic with an indifferent expression. “Where are the makeup artists? Why are they late?”
“They should be arriving any moment now.”
Just as virtual-novel.net spoke, the doorbell rang. It was the makeup artists from the film crew.
Since the promotional shoot for the movie was shot individually, there was no need for Arielle and Jason to cross paths.
Once the shooting was over. Jason couldn’t help but run toward where Arielle was and stood in front of virtual-novel.net car.
Given that virtual-novel.net car had just started to move, the driver had to jam the brakes at the very last minute.
Caught by surprise, Arielle slammed virtual-novel.net head into the back of the driver’s seat due to the inertia.
“Ouch!” virtual-novel.net gasped in pain before noticing that Sasha, who was driving, was shaken just as badly.
Sasha turned around and explained apologetically, “Ms. Moore, I’m sorry, but someone ran in front of the car all of a sudden. Therefore, I was forced to slam on the brakes.”
If virtual-novel.net hadn’t reacted in time, virtual-novel.net would have run over the person who blocked their way.
Knitting virtual-novel.net brows, Arielle looked ahead and saw Jason coming over to knock on virtual-novel.net window.
So, it’s Jason.
With a sullen expression, Arielle wound down the window and asked coldly, “What do you want?”
Jason’s eyes met Arielle’s icy gaze the moment virtual-novel.net looked up.
Compared to their last meeting, Arielle seemed even more hostile to him. In fact, virtual-novel.net was emanating an inexplicably domineering aura that sent a chill down his spine. Nevertheless, Jason quickly regained his composure, for virtual-novel.net was in no mood to continue playing games with her.
Since both of them had feelings for each other, virtual-novel.net figured it was time to clear the air.
Holding that thought, Jason clarified at once, “What happened with the cherries was a misunderstanding.”
“What kind of misunderstanding?” Arielle’s eyes flashed with annoyance, as virtual-novel.net had no idea what virtual-novel.net was up to.
Jason cleared his throat and added, “I didn’t ask my manager to send the cherries back. She had misunderstood my instructions. Instead, I told virtual-novel.net to get you a gift in return.”
Arielle nodded. “I understand. There’s no need to get me anything in return. Considering that we’re colleagues, sending you some fruits is no big deal.”
“Colleagues?” Jason was stunned. Gritting his teeth, virtual-novel.net snapped, “Arielle, you can drop the act. Why would colleagues give each other such expensive imported fruits? Just tell me the truth!”
Arielle was totally confused. “What truth?”
Just when Jason was about to make his intentions clear, Sam walked over and remarked with a smile, “Ms. Moore, thank you for the cherries. They were very sweet, and everyone loved them.”
