Channing stared at Winnie with his lips slightly moved in silence.
She also looked up with a steady gaze.
She simply wanted him to know that in this world, he was always him and should not be bound by something
unworthy.
After a few seconds of silence, the lights in the hallway dimmed.
He suddenly asked in a low voice, “What about you?”
She was stunned for a while. “Me…What?”
“Will you reject me because of those consequences that I should not bear?” he asked.
In the dark, she did not know what to say with her mouth half-open.
Was he setting her up?
Whatever answer she gave him would be a wrong one.
Whether she would reject him or not had nothing to do with this matter.
Well… How did they jump to this topic all of a sudden?
How come he suddenly asked such a question?
Within a few seconds, she had lots of thoughts on her mind. And she had never been like this, not knowing what to
say.
At this moment, his phone rang.
With this sound, the light in the hallway lit again.
He saw fluster and bewilderment on her face.
She quickly withdrew her gaze and said, “It’s been a while, so we…We should go back.”
Just as she turned around, he said, “I still have the smell of smoke on me.”
She turned around and asked, “Then you…”
He said, “Can you help me with it?”
She got confused, “How?”
He walked forward and took her wrist, hugging her gently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe said, “Your perfume should cover the smell of smoke.”
She got speechless.
He just hugged her gently and gave her enough space to step back.
But this only made her heart pound faster.
The light became dim again.
She even heard her heartbeat.
She whispered, “Did you stay downstairs all night that night?”
He remained silent for a few seconds but did not deny it.
She asked, “Why?”
“I feared that Chassell would come to you again.” He paused before adding, “Do you still want to ask me why I'm
worried about that?”
The answer was clear enough.
She did not speak.
After a long while, she said, “Channing Radomil, I haven’t thought…”
This was the first time she called him by his name so formally.
He took a step back and said lightly, “We have to work later. So let’s keep it cool.”
She swallowed back her words.
He had a good point.
If things became awkward between them, later they would not be able to work smoothly.
And it might be awkward when they met in the future.
She suddenly understood why he had never expressed his feelings clearly.
He must have long expected that she would never say yes.
After leaving the escape corridor, she still had to change her clothes. So he said, “I will go over first.”
She replied, “Well, okay.”
In the shooting studio, Sherry was chatting with Stella. When she saw Channing coming, her eyes lit up.
She said, “Chan, how did you become more handsome than before? You are better-looking every day!”
She nudged Stella with her elbow and asked, “Did you notice it, Stella?”
Stella smiled, “Yes.”
Sherry could not help but take some pictures for him. “With your handsome face, you can beat most of the stars in
the entertainment industry. Your company definitely hit the jackpot by signing you!”
While saying this, she smelled a faint perfume on him, so she asked in surprise, “Chan, you used perfume, huh?”
He replied, “Maybe I got it from the dressing room.”
She gave a suspicious look and raised her eyebrows towards Stella, feeling something unusual.
Stella pulled her over and said, “Well, stop it. Take some good pictures for him.”
Sherry said, “Yes. Chan, stand well and let me take some more pictures so that we can put them up in our studio. I
believe it can attract a lot more customers in the future.”
In the previous variety show recording, he had already taken publicity photos, so he was not unfamiliar with this
kind of shooting.
Soon Sherry took a lot of pictures.
While taking pictures, she said, “Stella, listen to me. We should hurry up on designing clothes for men. A day late
means a big loss.”
Stella giggled, “Okay. I got it.”
She had not thought of designing men’s clothes but now it was time to put it on the agenda.
After Channing finished taking the photos, Winnie also came out after getting changed.
She was wearing a custom-made dress, accessorized with a tiara, earrings, and necklaces and so on which were all
Stella’s works.
When she walked over, the light and shadow in the shooting studio seemed to move with her.
Channing looked at her with a slight smile.
Sherry said, “You are just so beautiful! I knew we chose the right person!”
Winnie smiled and accidentally met Channing’s eyes. But she quickly looked away and pretended to be calm,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmsaying, “Let’s get started.”
Sherry said, “Okay. Come on, guys!”
When they were shooting, Stella just waited on the side.
“What are you doing here silently?” Donald suddenly walked over and asked.
She breathed a sigh and withdrew her eyes. “It’s nothing. What’s wrong?”
He said, “Since the things were all done, when could I get my dinner? Tell me and I can empty my stomach in
advance.”
She did not know what to say.
Then she said, “Give me some time. The outdoor scenes have not been shot yet. We have been busy recently.”
He asked, “What has Clarence been doing recently?”
“He is at Steward Group. What do you want from him?”
He was at a loss for words.
After he helped Vincent to have the child taken from City N to Riverside City, Clarence ignored him.
Well, he had to find a chance to explain to Clarence.
It turned out that his choice back then was right.
Clarence should thank him. However, he chose to ignore him, which was just so unreasonable.
She paused before asking, “Are you still in contact with Vincent?”
He wanted to say something but fell into silence.
Then he whispered to defend himself, “I can’t lie, can I?”
“Just speak the truth. I won’t do anything.” She said, “Is he in City N?”
He replied, “Yes. And he is looking into something and can’t show up for now. If you want to say something to him, I
can help you with it.”
She thought about it, “I have nothing to say to him. As for what happened between him and Clarence… Well, just
wait until another time.”
Although Vincent stayed by Clarence’s side and helped him all these years, he indeed deceived Clarence with his
own purpose for over a decade.
