Chapter 48 What Was He Worried about?
She greeted Victor. After she left, Suzy walked to the opposite side, opened the car door, and got in. Looking at Evan sitting in the driver’s seat, she asked in confusion, “What a coincidence. Are you here for dinner as well?”
“Sure,” Evan replied and continued, “I have watched you eat for 10 minutes.”
He was in the restaurant opposite Suzy. After eating, he saw Suzy and Victor sitting by the window, talking and laughing.
Evan suppressed his anger. He looked at the bag in her hand and asked, “What is this?”
“A gift from Victor.”
Evan: “Throw it away.”
Suzy frowned and said, “He just wanted to thank me and treat me to a meal as a gift. Don’t think too much about it. Not to mention that this is CIRA’s product!”
“Thinking too much? Suzy, are you stupid? Victor likes you. Stay away from him in the future.”
Suzy was shocked.
Did Victor like her? No way? Suzy subconsciously thought that Evan had overthought it, but in the next second, she realized something.
“You said Victor likes me?”
Evan nodded. He had sensed it during last time’s dinner, and now it was even more so… His intuition told him that Victor liked Suzy.
Evan was slightly annoyed by the smile on Suzy’s face, and his voice suddenly became icy. “What? Are you interested in him?”
Suzy thought carefully for two seconds and said, “This boy is not bad. He’s young, promising, and handsome.”
Before Suzy could finish her sentence, Evan’s face suddenly turned expressionless.
“Suzy!” Evan stared at her. “Have you forgotten our previous contract? How dare you have a rose affair in front of me?”
“No, no, of course, after the contract is terminated! Don’t worry; I will never betray you during this period.”
Evan said in an authoritative voice, “You can’t even cancel the contract!”
“Oh? On what basis?” Suzy smiled playfully. Looking straight into his icy eyes, he continued, “Why can’t I?”
“No.”
At this moment, Evan knew that Suzy was just joking and provoking him.
“Mr. Hughes is so overbearing!”
Suzy narrowed her eyes slightly and sized up the side of Evan’s face. She was puzzled. Did Evan not like her, or was he worried about something?
Suzy smiled and didn’t say anything in the end.
“I still have work to do later, so I can’t accompany you to take a nap. I’ll go first.”
Hearing this, Evan frowned slightly and said with a hint of displeasure in his voice, “Where did your company get so much work? Suzy, what do you want now?”
Starlight Pictures was now just a small company with only three artists. How could Suzy be so busy?All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.
Suzy paused for a moment. She was going to go to CIRA to modify the design of the gown. She smiled and said, “You’ll know in a few days.”
Evan looked at her. “Are you plotting against the Carters family again?”
Suzy hastily shook her head.
What scheme against the Carters family? She was earning money for him!
Evan didn’t ask any more questions and didn’t stop Suzy when she was about to get out of the car. He just took the things that Victor had given him. Evan said, “I’ll ask CIRA’s men to give you better gifts later.”
Suzy was speechless.
After all, this was Victor’s kind intention, but when she saw Evan’s gaze, she left dejectedly in the end.
On the way to CIRA, and before Suzy even arrived, Thomas’s call arrived!
“Mr. Kenn.”
“Evan is here! He saw the two dresses you’ve designed and wants to see you specifically.”
Suzy was somewhat embarrassed. She did not expect the two who had just separated to run towards the same destination. Fortunately, they did not meet on the way.
“Just say that I’m busy and can’t come today. Call me later when Evan leaves, and I’ll go upstairs then.”
In a few days, it would be CIRA’s new fashion show, and Evan would find out sooner or later that Suzy was the designer Carl. Now, Suzy just wanted to give Evan a surprise.
After hanging up, Thomas did as Suzy said and concealed her identity from Evan.
Suzy waited in the parking lot nearby for a long time. It wasn’t until Thomas called her and told her that Evan had left that she got out of the car, put on a mask and hat, and took the elevator upstairs.
When Suzy arrived at the spacious design room, the two dresses had already been designed completely. Only some details needed to be modified.
Suzy sized up the dress while asking, “Why did Evan want to see me?”
“He thinks your creation is very good, so he wants to meet you!” As speaking, Thomas smiled and continued. “Do you know why Mr. Hughes has come here?”
Suzy shook her head.
Thomas had a mysterious expression. “You’ll find out tonight.”
Suzy was speechless.
She gazed at Thomas with a puzzled expression, but Thomas didn’t say anything and just left.
Suzy thought about it for two seconds and guessed what Evan was here for. It was not until 3 p. m. that she modified the details of the two dresses and left CIRA.
The second floor of CIRA had limited-edition display areas, including clothes, bags, jewelry, and all kinds of luxury goods.
Suzy had nothing else to do next, so she wanted to walk around. When she passed the clothing area, she saw dozens of wrapped bags.
The manager in charge said, “Send these to IBlue-Bay Villa…”
Blue-Bay Villa was where Suzy lived. Suzy’s understood something. As expected, Evan’s actions were quick. Suzy was very happy and wondered if she should also give Evan something. The next second, the staff member continued, “Send that to Harbour Villa.”
In an instant, Suzy was slightly stunned.
According to her understanding, CIRA had the authority to purchase all these limited items, and only high-level members were able to purchase so many at once.
Who was the owner of the Harbour Villa? Could these have been gifted to that owner by Evan?
Suzy felt that she had thought too much. However, she was no longer in the mood to stroll around. After she walked out of the parking lot, she could not help sending a WhatsApp message to Flora.
[Can you help me ask where Cherry lives?]
Suzy had only seen Cherry a few times. Still, she remembered that Cherry wore many clothes and accessories that were also CIRA’s. Did she buy them herself, or…?
Flora didn’t know what had happened, but she still walked up to Cherry and asked, “Cherry, may I ask where you live?”
Although Flora and Cherry had been shooting for a long time, they were not very familiar with each other. They only met up because they had scenes together.
Cherry was confused by the question.
“Here’s the thing. I’ve been living in safety hazards recently. Where do you live? How’s it going over there?”
Cherry knew that Flora was just an ordinary female actress, so Cherry said indifferently, “My villa is pretty nice, but you can’t afford it.”
Flora was speechless.
Who was she looking down on?
Soon, Suzy received a reply from Flora. When she saw the words ‘Harbour Villa’, her heart sank to the bottom in an instant.
