Chapter 29


    Chapter 29 Daring Not to Provoke


    Elena suddenly dared not to move. She sat on the ground, sobbing uncontrobly.


    Sean scowled at Elena’s grip on his trouser leg and the fingers resting somewhat hard on ire’s


    shoulder.


    “A woman with bad behavior is unfit for the entertainment industry. Victor, give the order to cklist her


    across the entire industry!”


    The entire crew was stunned. Is Elena being cklisted throughout the industry?


    Mr. Sean was very exceptional. He performed an incredible move without hesitating.


    Elena’s options were effectively closed.


    Their bodies shivered, and their eyes glowed with horror when they stared at ire. This woman


    wasn’t frightening, but she had a man who would cause hell for her. No one dared provoke her.


    Elena sagged down on the ground. Her once lively eyes had dimmed, her face had turned ashen, and


    she resembled a pile of mud.


    Sean was unconcerned about their shocked expressions. He looked at ire’s wet coat, his brows


    furrowing tightly. “You were already running a fever, and now your clothes are wet. Are you a child?”


    ire pouted. “What’s the big deal? I’m not cold.”


    “Looks like you don’t know how to care for yourself.”


    His hand on her shoulder still hadn’t moved. At this point, his long fingers directly mped down on her


    shoulder. His firm grip left no opportunity for refusal. “Come home with me. You can return to the set


    after you’ve


    recovered.”


    Home …


    Oh …


    The crew strained their eyes as they smiled, but no one dared tough aloud. They stifled their


    laughter, turned to the side, and chuckled.


    “Go… go home with you?” ire’s tongue became tangled. “No, I don’t want to. We still have to film


    tomorrow…”


    At that time, Mr. Smith hurriedly said, “Ms. Lawrence, you can go. The leading actress has been


    reced. We can’t continue filming on the set. We’ll have to wait till I find a new main actress to start


    filming again. It’ll probably take at least three or four days. Don’t worry.”


    N?velDrama.Org (C) content.


    ire was on the edge of breaking down. How could Mr. Smith be this way?


    She had the sense that she was being sold.


    Now, she put her faith in Julia. “Then … then that’s not an option either. Julia was injured. I need to go


    back and take care of her.”


    Julia raised her injured hand right away. “I’m fine, ire. I’mpletely


    fine. Look….”


    She squeezed her hand before ire, smiling as she endured the pain.


    ire was frustrated.


    How could she not have a reliable person at this moment?


    Although Sean was a gentleman, she couldn’t just go to his ce. If they were alone, he might lose


    control, and things could get out of hand.


    Even if nothing happened, the crew would assume something had happened between her and Sean


    based on their current expressions.


    She turned her head, her gaze fixed on Sean. “Can … can I not go?”


    Sean lowered his head and raised his eyebrow. “ire, do you think I have a hidden agenda toward


    you?”!


    ire, “…


    He was so straightforward, which made her seem petty.


    Mr. Smith nodded and smiled. “Ms. Lawrence, go ahead. Don’t worry about the


    shoot.”


    Julia ced her injured hand behind her back and smiled. “Exactly, ire. Mr. Vanderbilt is a kind-


    hearted person. He takes better care of you than I


    do.”


    What else could ire possibly say?


    All her allies had turned against her, and she was now nearly in sync with


    Sean.


    CLOSE


    Sean took ire’s hand off her shoulder like a gentleman. “Let’s go.”


    Simon observed their leaving figures, his eyes tightening into a smile


    beneath his sses.


    This cold-hearted elderly bachelor has fallen in love!


    He was even leading the young girl home with enthusiasm.


    Look at how elegant and respectful he was, probably ready to devour the girl when she entered his


    home.


    Heh…


    Simon chuckled softly, and his hands went inside the pants pocket. Not a bad


    move at all.


    Inside the car.


    Sean leaned back against the seat, and his deep eyes nced at ire. Her cheeks were rosy, and


    even her little nose was tinged with pink. He turned around and grabbed a tiny coffee-colored nket.


    “Take off your coat and wrap this around you.”


    ire nodded and obediently took off her suit jacket. Then, Sean gently draped the small nket over


    her shoulders.


    Because she had a cold, she didn’t open the car windows and even turned off the air conditioner. The


    summer heat was affecting the entire cabin.


    However, she was still a little chilly.


    CLOSE


    ire clung to the nket’s edge and stole a glimpse at Sean. He sat there earnestly without a hint of


    evil thoughts once he finished covering her. He didn’t even let their shoulders or legse into contact.


    This gentleman, this honest man, made her fully let down her guard against


    him.


    ire coughed quietly and then shifted slightly towards Sean. She expanded the gap between them by


    just a little, and her heart began to beat furiously


    Had he taken notice?


    Would he consider her immoral if he knew she was intentionally leaning on


    him, just like Elena? Was she considered a loose woman?


    She cast another guilt-ridden nce at him, detecting no change in his demeanor. Her heart rate


    gradually normalized.


    “Sir.” She addressed him quietly.


    Sean’s gaze remained fixed as he softly muttered, “Hmm.”


    ire got some confidence, and she scooted closer to Sean. Then, she clutched the nket tightly as


    she said, “I think you punished Elena too


    hard.”


    Sean’s delicate lips curled nearly unnoticed. “Are you sure? You still feel sorry for her after she stabbed


    you with a silver needle?”


    “She didn’t benefit from it either,” ire said as she stepped closer to


    516


    CLOSE


    him, their arms barely a few centimeters apart. “I twisted her hand so I


    didn’t lose out.”


    “Heh…” The man’s quiet giggle was tinged with enjoyment and mocking. “V


    ites to me, you’re not afraid to say whatever you want.”


    “Of course!” ire pulled her shoulder closely against his shoulder this tin Both her hands gripped his


    arm to keep warm, and she leaned close to his as if whispering a secret. “I know you feel bad about


    Xander’s situation,


    Sir.”


    Sean turned his head to gaze at her. His lips pressed into a straight line.


    So, the girl thought he had done all this, only out of guilt…


    What kind of logic was this?


    He was dying to hit her little head and see what was inside. Could the par of her brain responsible for


    emotional intelligence have not yet fully


    developed?
