Chapter 150
“Hi, Platt.”
Isabella walked toward the man.
“Isabella, you look so beautiful today!”
Platt looked up and down at Isabella, “How is it? Do you like my gift? Until yesterday did I see the advertisement on the forum, so it cost me a lot to make this banner in such a short time! I personally designed it!”
“You designed by your own ...”
“Do you like it?” Platt asked excitedly.
“I like it.” Isabella put her hand on the forehead. “The white banner with red words really looks like a note for your money.”
Platt was shocked, “Why didn’t I think of that? The banner indeed looks like what a debt collector would use. I don’t mean to. I only thought that white represents you, and the blooming plum blossoms represent me ...”
.....
Platt said sadly, “Isabella, you are very thoughtful. I change the banner to a red one now!”
” ... Hold on ... Hold on! Wait for a moment! Let me finish!”
Isabella watched Platt run away, looking desperate.
“Interesting.”
A familiar voice came from behind. Lukas walked over and said, “It’s that guy again. He’s quite interesting. Everyone who sees the banner would think that he asks someone to pay for him in blood.”
“Lukas, don’t tease me.”
Isabella turned around, “Are you here to congratulate Director Lee?”
“No. I came to attend the kick-off ceremony. I ...”Lukas was shocked when he saw what Isabella wore. “Is this dress ...”
“Well, it’s just something similar to that one.”
Isabella couldn’t explain why she had such an expensive dress, so she rubbed her hands and quickly changed the topic, “Isn’t it beautiful?”
“Of course.”
“Lukas, you said that you’re here to attend the kick-off ceremony. Do you have a guest character?”
“No. I’m the leading actor.”
Isabella was surprised, “But that role was acted by ...”
“He is replaced. The director thought I was more suitable to that role.”
Lukas smiled, “What do you think? We’re going to work together later.”
Then he bowed in a funny way, “Miss Isabella, I’d appreciate your kind consideration in the coming cooperation.”
“That’s great!”
Isabella laughed, “I’d appreciate your kind consideration as well!”
They smiled at each other, but they didn’t know that someone in the distance recorded this moment with a camera ...
The film was scheduled to be filmed for about 40 days. Although Isabella didn’t play a major role in the film, she often had to get up early and wait at the movie set, because she needed to be on standby whenever the heroine was in place.
Anyway, Isabella cherished this hard-won opportunity and worked hard for her job.
The willow trees were green, and the lake water was azure.
A black limousine drove into the school gate.
“Recently, Isabella rarely showed up. I heard that she is acting in a film at school.”
Joseph sat in the back seat, smoking. “It’s almost noon. Gerry, call her and ask her to have lunch with me.”
“Yes, sir.”
“Hold on.”
The car stopped. Joseph lowered the window and looked at the banner in the distance. Suddenly, his face sank. “Can’t this skank hook a man with good taste? Keep driving.”
Isabella never expected that Joseph would come to their school.
And called her to have lunch with him.
Ever since she fed him the ice cream last time, Joseph had always come to her.
As long as his grandfather wasn’t around, whether it be supper, dessert, or drinks, or even occasionally lunch, Joseph would ask Isabella to sit beside and feed him.
He was like a domineering bureaucrat with a broken hand.
Isabella tried to reject, but she gave up the moment she saw Joseph’s sharp look.
Although Isabella had signed the same contract as Joseph, it was obvious that she wasn’t treated equally in reality.
Isabella had no work today. After class, she told a decent lie to her friends, and then went straight to the VIP lounge with her bag.
“I mean, Joseph ...”
Isabella pushed open the door angrily and was suddenly shocked.
A woman buried her head in a man’s arms and cried, “The child in my womb is yours!”
The man was Director Lee of “Meet You, Love You”, a middle-aged married man with children.
The woman was Miles Vega, the heroine who acted opposite Lukas and played Isabella’s roommate in the film.
Isabella immediately covered her face, closed the door, and ran away as fast as she could.
“Who are you?! Wait!”
Director Lee roared, but Isabella already slammed the door and sprinted away.
“Oops!”
Just as Isabella turned the corner, she bumped into the person who was coming towards her.
“Miss Isabella?”
Gerry stood calmly with his four bodyguards.
“Where’s Joseph? Isn’t he at the VIP lounge like before?”
Asked Isabella, panting heavily.
“That one is offered to another crew. We are now at the lounge on the east side.”
” ... Oh my, I’m in trouble!”
Isabella immediately took off her coat and threw it away. Then, she stepped forward to grab Gerry’s coat, “Give your clothes to me! Be quick!”
“What?” Gerry was shocked.
“Take off your clothes!”
Isabella hurriedly wrapped around Gerry’s waist and forcefully took off his clothes.
“Miss Isabella! Wait!”
Gerry flushed as he stepped back. He suddenly looked ahead and didn’t move.
Before Isabella could react, someone grabbed her collar from behind. Joseph stared at her with his pitch-black eyes, “Miss Fox, are you trying to get killed? How dare you flirt my assistant in broad daylight?”
“Let me go! Let me go! Joseph!”
Isabella struggled for a while, and then a sound of footsteps came. She suddenly pulled away Joseph’s jacket and buried her face in front of his chest.
Almost at the same time, Director Lee showed up, panting.
Although Joseph did not know what had happened, he was smart and immediately understood why Isabella was panicking.
Thus, he calmly wrapped up Isabella in his coat and coldly looked at Director Lee.
Gerry and the bodyguards immediately made a move and stood in front of Director Lee before he approached, “Sir, please stop moving forward!”
Seeing that, Director Lee looked at the person at the core. He was shocked, “Is ... is it Mr. Joseph?”
Joseph felt Isabella trembling, so he gently patted her on the back and asked indifferently, “Who are you?”
“Well, I’m the director of Mountain Entertainment. You can call me Director Lee.”
As he spoke, he glanced at Isabella in Joseph’s arms.
“Nice to meet you.”
Joseph didn’t sound kind despite his polite words, “I wonder why you come for.”
.....
“Nothing ... nothing.”
Director Lee glanced at Isabella again, “I’m looking after a girl. Did Mr. Joseph see...”
