Chapter 49
Chapter 49 Unreasonable
Darren remained silent.He couldn''t fathom what was wrong with himself now.He wanted to know
ire''s rtionships with the old man, Nathan, and the actor.
However, he also knew he had no right to question her now.
During work yesterday, Darren identally saw a piece of entertainment news that said ire was
very close to Miss Haylee Carter, whose family owned a leading mediapany.
Word had it that Miss Carter frequently changed her boyfriends.
The information made his stomach queasy.
ire was not only involved with Nathan but also seemed to have a good rtionship with an affluent
woman like Haylee.She had managed to mingle with the upper ss without the identity of
"Mrs.Sampson".
The news was precisely why he came to see ire today.He wanted to say he finally found out the
Sampson family owed a lot to her.He had invested in the film to make it up to her.
ire grew impatient as Darren sat there in silence, choosing the right words to say.
"What are you going to say? If you''re going to say the same old thing, I''d better leave."
ire stood up to leave.
However, Darren finally spoke.His words were different from what he wanted to say.
"I heard you are close to Haylee."
ire sat down when she heard her best friend''s name.
"So what?"
"Well, she doesn''t seem to have a good reputation in the circle.You can make friends, but you can''t be
friends with someone like her."
ire sneered at him.
"Don''t you think you are being too nosy, Mr.Sampson? Besides, I vaguely remember you being close to
Stuart Myers.As far as I know, he is not a good man."
Darren was at a loss for words.
"You''d better look at yourself before advising others.Don''t you know this, Mr.Sampson?"
After a moment''s silence, Darren crossed his hands on the table and took a deep breath.
"Okay, I don''t have a say on whom you should be friends with."
He looked into ire''s eyes.
"After we got divorced, you left without getting anypensation.I feel bad about it.I''m a man of
principles.Even if you don''t want anything, I will give you thepensation you deserve."

"What bullshit!"
ire snorted.
"If you think you owe me something, better leave my sight."
Thest time she went to the Sampson family''s house to get the bracelet, she told him she wished
never to see him again.But Darren had ignored her words and invested in the film.
That didn''t matter to ire, but she hated to see him at the film set today.
ire wondered if the Quantum Group had gone bankrupt.
Why else did he have the time to bother her?
"If you don''t want to ept mypensation, consider it as a coboration."
Darren looked at her intently.
"The Quantum Group is nning to enter the film and television industry.I''m doing business, and you''re
going to perform in the film.I''ll make money, and you''ll gain poprity.Your role seems insignificant in
the film.I can invest more in it and ask the producer to change the script."
ire finally understood his intentions.
Darren had assumed she wanted to be a popr actress.He wanted to offer herpensation,
but she didn''t ept it.
Therefore, he offered a deal that was beneficial for both.
Darren only wanted to find a way to achieve his goal, but didn''t consider what she wanted.
Well, she wouldn''t ept it.
She had no reason to get anything from him.
ire sprang up to her feet and looked down at him.
"Look, my acting in the film has got nothing to do with you, so you better stop worrying about my career
or what I do in life."
With that, she turned around and walked past the waiter.
The waiter stared at them with two cups of coffee.
His face flushed, and he didn''t know whether to serve the coffee or not.
Darren was annoyed.
Just then, his phone rang.He picked it up and saw the caller ID.It was a call from Stuart.
"Mr.Sampson!"
Stuart cried as soon as the call connected.
"Prince charming! Is Sierra the love of your life?"
Darren''s forehead creased with a frown.He couldn''t help but wonder why Stuart asked such a question.
