Chapter 366 Extra Story Working Hard (Part One)


    The next day, Ena went to thepany to meet with her agent and directors and see if they had


    any suitable scripts for her.


    As it turned out, they did have something. "There is a historical y, ''Legend of Empress Dugu''. It''s


    about the life of Galois Dugu, the empress to the first emperor of Sui Dynasty. I wonder if you are


    able to y this role."


    Ena read through the script and learned that the title character was a woman of a nomad tribe. She


    was beautiful, charming, bold and honest. And she also possessed elegance, wisdom, tenderness


    and thoughtfulness. What drew Ena to it even more though, was that she had been exemry all


    her life. She had achieved a great deal in politics and shared a deep, meaningful rtionship with


    the emperor. If Ena could pull this performance off, it would do wonders for her career.


    ''TH take it!" she announced with steely determination and focus, pounding on the table.


    Once Victor had heard the news, he said, "Ena, I know you want to make progress in your career,


    but why do you have to work so hard right now?"


    Ena just blinked in response and said nothing back. She was plotting her own path in her mind.


    ''Victor, Victor, I''m going to work hard to gain a huge sess, just you watch and see!''


    Victor almost finished shooting his movie when Ena''s TV series had only begun. So the two of them


    couldn''t see each other very often.


    One day, Victor was bored and went to the CEO''s office visiting William, and happened to find


    Lucas there as well, so they all had a chat.


    "Long time no see, Victor!" Lucas sat on the desk with a yful look on his face. "Seeing you here


    is quite a rare asion. Is this because Ena is working and you have no one to keep you


    "What about you? What''s the big case Jazlyn is on again?" Victor asked, casting a cold nce at


    Lucas.


    "Humph..." Lucas then turned to William and said, "I really envy you William."


    "What''s so good about me? I''m no different from the both of you." With a hint of frustration, William


    continued, "Recently, Mary came hometer than I did. It''s all Barry''s fault. He stays home all day


    with Sh and leaves the entirepany to Mary. She''s been so exhaustedtely!"


    Victor dropped himself down on the sofa and raised his eyebrows. "I miss the times when Ena


    would be waiting for me at home!"


    "I know what you mean!" Lucas jumped from the desk eagerly and said, "It used to be that the men


    made the money and the women stayed at home. Why do these women all want to be strong and


    independent these days?"


    William nodded in agreement. "It''s better for them to stay at home. When they''re out, just think


    about all the men looking at them with bad intentions and filthy thoughts. That''s what I''m worried


    about!"


    "The more you talk about that, the more I feel like something is wrong," Victor said with a deep


    frown. "Ena seemed in a real hurry to take the role in this ''Legend of Empress Dugu''. She''d only just


    recovered, why was she rushing to get back to work? It''s a little strange if you ask me." "Ena is such


    a motivated youngdy," William said with a smile as if he was pleased with himself. "Our


    employees seem to be all very hardworking." "No! No! No!" Lucas objected. He seemed to know


    something. "I think Ena is going to teach you a lesson," he said with a smirk.


    "What sort of lesson?" Victor asked. He was confused, not following where Lucas was going with


    this. He and Ena had been enjoying each other''s love. They were in absolute bliss ofte.


    "I think she will find you a rival in love. Ha ha..." Lucas burst intoughter.


    "Shut up!" Victor responded. He was unamused by his joke. He got to his feet suddenly and said in


    a voiceden with anger, "I have to go now."

    "Are you going to the studio city?" William smiled, poking fun at Victor.


    "I''m not that bored!" Victor snorted, striding out of the office.


    "Ha ha..." Lucas was still smiling mischievously and said to William, "I think we''ve made Victor a


    little anxious. He should have made his rtionship with Ena public!"


    "He''s been keeping it under wraps for the sake of her career." Stroking his nose, William continued,


    "But, I''m afraid that it won''t be long till Victor lets everyone know."


    Victor left the office lost in his thoughts.


    Would Ena really find him a rival in love? Was she tired of living with him for so long that she


    wanted to leave him? That couldn''t be! But why was she all of a sudden in such a hurry to shoot


    another project? Was the male lead more handsome than him?


    ''Phew!'' Victor shook his head hard, trying to fling these insecurities from his mind but it was no


    good. He quickly took his phone from his pocket and dialed Ena''s number.


    Beep...Beep...Beep...


    He stood with one hand on his waist and the other holding the phone to his ear. The busy tone


    yed on the phone and made him frown as he paced back and forth.


    Beep...Beep...Beep...


    "Hello?" Ena''s heart fluttered with excitement when she saw the calling from Victor. But there


    were too many staff and crew members around, so she restrained herself and answered the phone


    as if it were any ordinary call, not even calling out Victor''s name.


    Victor let out a sigh of relief when he heard Ena''s voiceing from the other end. His anxiety was


    put to rest and his mind was eased. "Ena, what are you doing right now?” he asked.


    "I''m filming!" she eximed happily. "We''ve already filmed several scenes," she added in a sweet


    tone of childish joy.


    "Are you tired?”


    "Not really! I''m enjoying it actually!" Ena smiled. ''How could I be tired? If I can just work hard


    enough I can deserve you, Victor. Just the thought of it is sending electricity through my body.''


    "Ena, are you busy?” Victor heard another man''s voice asking on her end.


    He was shocked, his heart racing now. Before he could say anything, Ena said, "No, I''m not busy.


    What''s up?"


    "Oh good. I was hoping to run lines with you. Our next scene together is a very important one, I


    want to get it right." "Okay, I''ll be right there.”


    Victor boiled over in rage and growled, "Ena! Ena!"


    "What? What is it? Hello?" She turned around quickly to answer him, lowering her voice


    unconsciously, "I have to run lines. Remember to eat on time okay? I''ll call youter! Bye!"


    "I have something to tell you..."


    Beep...Beep...Beep...


    She had hung up before Victor could finish his words.


    "Hello... Damn it!" Victor cursed. He walked around aimlessly for a while, stunned and numb to his


    surroundings. ''No! She''s been acting too strangely recently.''
