Love Is a Sweet Addiction

Chapter 120 The Scheme Succeeded



It seemed that she was right. Otherwise, why did he suddenly return her phone?

Thinking that the thing that she always thought was a secret was not a secret for him at all, Esther felt embarrassed. She wondered if he would think that she had sneaked into his room with evil intentions.

When Esther arrived at the restaurant on the first floor, everyone except Terence had yet to arrive. She politely greeted him and sat down beside him.

Terence was using his phone to check yesterday’s stock market. After hesitating for a moment, Esther suddenly turned her head to stare at him and asked, “Did you know that I broke into your bedroom that night?”

“Yes,” Terence replied calmly.

“Then why didn’t you ask me about it?”

“Ask about what?”

“Aren’t you curious about why I barged in?”

“Didn’t you go in to see how bad I am?” Terence finally turned to look at her with a hint of mockery.

The only thing he didn’t understand was why she had clearly seen the terrible appearance he had when he was ill and still dared to marry him!

“Of course not.” Esther hurriedly said.

“Then why?”

“Actually…” Esther found it hard to speak, but in order to prove that she was not as scheming as he imagined, she had to speak truthfully, “Actually, I accidentally barged into your bedroom to follow James and Anne that day. I didn’t mean to.”

“To catch the adulterers?”

“Yes.” Esther nodded awkwardly.

Terence pursed his lips and didn’t speak.

Esther looked at him and thought to herself, “What does he mean by this? Does he mean that he doesn’t trust me?”

While she was still thinking about how to convince him, a cheerful female voice suddenly sounded at the entrance of the restaurant. “Uncle Terence and Auntie woke up really early today.”

She raised her head and smiled at Sarah and James who came in one after another. “Morning!”

Sarah sat down opposite the two and asked with a smile, “What were you talking about just now? You looked very serious.”

“It’s nothing. We were just chatting.” Esther replied and did not look at James who was beside Sarah.

Anne picked up the bag on the table and looked at it. She clicked her tongue with a disgusted look. “You’re already Mrs. Gibson, yet you still carry a bag that’s less than three hundred. Isn’t it embarrassing?”

“And it looks quite old,” Jennifer said from the side.

“From this, it can be seen that Esther is not doing very well in the Gibson family.” Linda also echoed.

Anne was going to marry into the Gibson family immediately and become the future mistress of the Gibson family, so her friends naturally worked harder to please her.

Anne immediately opened her bag and searched through it before taking out a phone.

It was the phone that Esther showed her last time.

She tried to get the password. It was not Esther’s birthday. And she tried Doris’s birthday, but it was still wrong. When she tried her father’s birthday, she succeeded.

She couldn’t wait to check the videos. Then she saw the video of her and Tyler in bed at a glance.

“That’s great, it’s still here!”

“Is the video still there?” Linda asked.

Anne nodded. “Yes, but I deleted it a second ago.”

“That’s good. I didn’t waste my time.”

“But…” Jennifer said cautiously, “What if Esther has already copied the video?”

“Yes, if she wants to frame you, she will definitely make a copy of the video.” Linda changed her tone.

The smile on Anne’s face froze for a moment before it was replaced by anger, “It would be best if she didn’t copy the video. Otherwise, I definitely won’t let her off!”

She thought that by getting her phone over and deleting the video inside, she would be able to rest easy. However, she didn’t expect that Esther was not easy to deal with and would definitely be on guard.

This was the first time Esther had seen a superstar since she had her memories.

Usually, because she was not very interested in celebrities, she didn’t pay much attention. Even this time, when she was selected by Lila, she was not very surprised.

Several colleagues in the working room were very interested in Lila and urged her to get the signature.

Esther agreed when she saw how much everyone liked Lila.

Looking at the woman on the sofa opposite her, Esther could not look away for a moment, because she looked much more beautiful than on TV and magazines.This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

Tall and well-proportioned figure, snow-white skin, delicate facial features… For the first time, Esther felt that God was so unfair that he could make a woman so beautiful.

Lila raised her hand and removed the sunglasses on her nose. She smiled at her and said, “Why are you looking at me like that?”

Esther returned to her senses and smiled embarrassedly. “Sorry, I just think that you are much more beautiful than on TV, so I couldn’t help but take a few more glances.”

“Is that so? Do you really think so?” Lila laughed even more happily.

“You are indeed beautiful. Of course it’s true.” By the side, Serena could not help but praise. In the end, she added, “I believe that when you wear our studio’s gown, you will be more beautiful and moving.”

“If that’s the case, then I will be very happy,” Lila said.

“Yes, you will definitely be very beautiful.” Serena said, “Let’s get back to the point. May I ask if you have any suggestions for the design draft? We can simply change it until you are satisfied.”

At this time, Lila’s phone suddenly rang. She took the phone from her assistant with her slender fingers and took a look at it. A sweet smile appeared on her beautiful face and her tone was a hundred times gentler than before. “Darling, why do you have time to call me… Of course I miss you… I have something to do now. Let’s have dinner together tonight… Okay, it’s settled.”

Hearing her words, Esther felt her heart seemed to twitch, and then she looked at this Lila in front of her in surprise.

‘Why… why did I suddenly feel that this voice was somewhat familiar, as if I had heard it before?

I didn’t even feel it when I was chatting with Lila just now. When she picked up the phone and said darling, I instantly felt as if I had heard it before.’
