Love Contract

Chapter 357 Extra Story The Past (Part Two)

"Love each other?" William pierced him with a daggerlike gaze. "I didn't hear it clearly. Can you say that again?"

"I..." Karson suddenly stopped, his eyes dodging while he felt slightly scared to go on.

"Karson Xie," William took a deep breath and said calmly, "I won't keep you in the company anymore. As for the other companies, I have also advised them to never hire you. As a public figure, you need to treasure your reputation and treat your audience kindly. I'm so disappointed by what you have done."

"Tsktsk..." Lucas shook his head and sighed gloatingly.

Tve stopped all your projects, too," continued William. "When you recover, you can go back to the company to calculate the dividend, and that’s it. I won't get even with you for what you did to Ena. Take care of yourself. If there is anything else, your former agent will talk to you in detail."

As soon as he finished his words, William walked out of the ward with Lucas tailing behind. After they took two steps in the corridor, a loud sound was heard back inside. "Bang!"

"Ha-ha..." Lucas said with a sarcastic smile, "He has a bad temper, doesn't he?"

"He has been acting all his life. No wonder all the directors think he is a good actor. But now that his true colors are finally revealed, those who once admired him now feel nothing but disgust." William shook his head, still feeling disappointed.

Lucas patted on his shoulder and responded with a smile, "I suggest that when your company recruits new talents in the future, you should carefully examine their basic moral quality and personalities. If they are qualified, you can keep them. Otherwise, let them go. Stop hiring such a scum! If it goes on like this, your company's reputation will be on the ropes."

Looking at Lucas, William raised his eyebrows and said after a while, "That's a good idea!"

Meanwhile, after he was left alone, Karson threw everything his hands could touch, turning the room into such a mess. But even with all that chaos he made, he still couldn't vent all his anger.

'Victor Qiao! William Lan! You are both refined scums, beasts in sheep's clothing! Do you think you're respectable and admired? Bastards!'

Karson rubbed his red and swollen arm when suddenly, his eyes lit up. 'Yes! Victor has caught the public's attention, but they still know nothing about his dirty past! Fuck you, Victor Qiao! If I'm gonna go down, I'll make sure to sink with you! Even if I die. I'll make you my company!' Karson snickered and plotted a devious idea.

After making up his mind, he began to search for his mobile phone. Then, he dialed a number.

"Beep...Beep..."

"Hello? Entertainment Morning? I'm calling to bring you breaking news. I can guarantee that this will stir a ruckus in the public! I even have an exclusive video. It'll be absolutely hot! Okay, no problem!"

Meanwhile, in Ena's apartment, Victor fell asleep sitting next to her bed. He had stayed with her the whole night.

When Ena opened her eyes, she immediately saw his side face pressed against the sheet. She stretched out her hand and traced the outline of his well-sculpted face. 'How could he be this handsome even when asleep?' she thought.

"Ding Dong! Ding Dong!"

All of a sudden, the doorbell rang, causing Victor to be awakened.

Seeing him move, Ena quickly lay back and pretended to still be asleep.

When Victor raised his head and was about to touch Ena's face, he saw her tightly closed eyes and slightly trembling eyelashes. He immediately smiled and said, "What should I do? I found Ena pretending to be asleep!

Hearing this, Ena blushed. She opened her eyes and murmured, "Ah, you caught me!"

"Ha-ha." Victor let out a chuckle. Then, with his eyes staring softly at her, he said, "Just stay here. I'll go and check who it is."

"Okay." Ena nodded obediently while holding the quilt just above her chest.

When Victor opened the door, he saw William, Mary, Barry, Selah, Lucas, and three kids waiting outside.

"Hi, Victor!" Elissa threw herself into his arms and asked, "Where is Ena?"

"She is still sleeping on the bed!" he answered, rubbing Elissa's hair.

"We heard that she was injured, so we came here to visit her." With two apples in his hands, Alick continued, "Mom said that she would get well after eating some apples."

"Good boy! You can go and see her in the bedroom!" Victor ruffled the little boy's head.

Meanwhile, Mary, who was holding Selah, offered, "I've made lunch. You should have some first. I'll go with

Selah to see Ena." "Okay."

"How is Ena? Is she emotionally stable now?" It was Lucas who asked.

"Well, she's definitely better now. Come in, guys. Take a seat." Victor pushed the door wider and let the guests in.

"Look, Victor has already taken himself as the owner of this apartment. Come on, guys! Let's have a seat!" Barry teased, grinning from ear to ear.

Slightly embarrassed, Victor pinched his nose and smiled awkwardly.

"I've just talked to Karson Xie." This time, William's serious voice resounded, catching Victor's attention.

"Well, he should never appear in front of Ena ever again. " Victor pursed his lips while his face suddenly turned gloomy.

"Victor, Ena has suffered a lot. Did you say or do anything to make her happy? Don't you like her at all?" Barry, who showed a bit of curiosity and concern, asked.

"When Ena's foot recovers, I'll tell her everything." With his jaw hardened, Victor stared back at Barry.

William's eyes lit up. Was Victor finally going to tell Ena everything about his past?

"What do you mean everything?" Barry and Lucas both cocked their heads on one side, confused as to what Victor implied.

"If you want to know, you can wait until Ena's foot recovers." The corners of Victor's mouth curved into a smile.

After the group visited Ena, William told Mary what

Victor had said earlier in the living room.

"This matter has always been a hurdle in his heart. I think it's good that he has finally made his mind to speak about it. I believe Ena wouldn't mind," Mary said her two cents about the matter.

William merely nodded with his hands on the steering wheel, obviously agreeing with what her wife said. If only Victor could be happy, then he would feel less guilty.

Meanwhile, Victor never left Ena’s apartment. He fed her and applied ointment on her foot.

"Hmm...you're suddenly treating me so well, Victor. I’m not used to it," Ena said, blinking as she stared at him innocently.

"Don’t you like it?" Smiling, Victor raised his head.

"Of course, I do!" With a tinge of pain glimmering in her eyes, Ena grabbed his hands at once and uttered, "But you wouldn't allow me to love you. I..."

"You don't need to worry about anything. Just get a good rest so that your foot can recover."

"Well... Okay."

That night, Victor stayed sitting on the edge of the bed, watching Ena fall asleep.

Now that he had decided to tell her everything about his past, he had been well-prepared. However, he wasn't expecting that someone would expose it to the public first before he could.

"The unknown past of the popular star, Victor."

"Victor, the truth behind the star's glory."

The next day, Entertainment Morning suddenly released two pieces of breaking news about Victor. The headlines were very obscure, but the content was surprisingly very detailed. And as soon as

the news came out, all TV stations reported it one after another, certainly creating a buzz in the entertainment industry.

"This morning, according to the report of Entertainment Morning, famous actor Victor, who made his debut many years ago, had apparently slept with influential figures in exchange for more projects and opportunities. An anonymous source has posted on major forums a video taken years ago. Here are the screenshots..." Victor, who was busy brushing his teeth, heard the report on the TV.

Instantly, the cup he was holding fell on the ground and rolled to a corner. Ignoring it, he frantically rushed into the living room only to see Ena sitting on the breakfast table and staring bewilderedly at the TV screen.

The screenshots shown were blurred, and the only thing that could be seen was Victor's young face.

"Victor..." Ena called, her lips trembling while still blankly staring at the TV. The moment she turned around, Victor saw how pale her face was.

"Don't watch it!" With his body trembling in a mixture of fright and anger, he rushed to stand in between her and the TV while covering her ears and eyes with his hands. "Ena, don't watch it! Don't listen to them! Please don't!"

Even though the voice of the reporter was captivating, at that moment, it sounded like a voice from hell for Victor.

Meanwhile, Ena remained stiff and motionless on her seat. She really wanted to close her eyes, but there was nothing she could do.

"Next, let's watch another news..."

As if a century had passed, Victor suddenly let go of Ena. He gritted his teeth, and his back was wet with sweat.

"Victor, is that true?" Ena asked with all her strength, raising her head and eyeing him expectantly.

At the same time, Victor tried his best to unite all his courage. He took a deep breath and intently stared at her. "Yes," A word escaped his lips. Then, seconds later, he added, "That's what I plan to tell you when your foot recovers. Now that you know, Ena, I am the most impure one..."

"Victor..." Ena sobbed.

Tm leaving now." Suddenly, Victor turned around and walked towards the door with empty eyes. Before he could see clearly the obstacle on his way, he bumped into a chair all of a sudden, but seemed not to feel the pain and stumbled to open the door.

"Victor! Victor!" Ena called; her eyes were blurred with tears. Desperate, she dragged her swollen foot forward, but she still didn't catch up with him.

"Bang!"

The apartment door was slammed shut while Ena fell hopelessly on the ground, bursting into tears and not minding the physical pain of her injury.

Meanwhile, in Kary Villa...

With a loud crack, the cup in Mary's hand was suddenly shattered after falling to the ground. She, too, was watching the news about Victor. "Who would do that? Who leaked that news? Fuck! Is it Karson Xie? William, tell me!" she yelled angrily, standing up with her eyes red in utter fury.

Immediately, William switched off the TV and answered in surprise, "I...I don't know! How could Karson know?"

"William!" Grabbing his collar, Mary cried out, "Who else knew what happened that time except for you and Frank? Didn't you tell me that the only video was the one you gave to me? Are you going to destroy Victor? Tell me!" This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

It was true that William didn't make copies, but as for Frank, he couldn't vouch for him.

"Mary!" William firmly held her in his arms to try to calm her down. "I swear, I don't know! I'll ask someone to destroy the videos right now. I'll tell them to hack those forums! Watts!"

Hearing the voice, Watts rushed in from outside, "Yes, Mr. Lan?"

"Go and find it out! I need to know as soon as possible. Find Frank Liang's whereabouts," William said the name with a cold face, evident that his hatred for that man was still so much alive in his heart.

"Yes, sir!"

Half an hour later, William received a call from Watts.

"Mr. Lan, Frank Liang is back. He moved back to the seashore villa three days ago."
