Chapter 1010
The Substitute Wife My Poor Husband is a Billionaire
Chapter 1010 identally Hurt Him
Confused, Sean spun around and queried, “Mrs. Larson, what are you trying to say?”
In a mild grin, J said, “Tonight is all about Este. You should have a good time with her. Please
don’t let me be the reason you hurt her feelings. In addition, it won’t help even if you tell Este. There
would only be one more person worried sick about me.”
“But…” Sean hesitated.
It was around this time when Este walked to them. With a sly smile, she grasped Sean’s arm and
added, “You ignored my several attempts to reach you. The host requests a group photograph.”
Este grinned and pulled J along. “Hurry up! You have to be there!”
“If I go with you, Mesue won’t find me when shees back,” J said, pinching Este’s cheek
affectionately. “You’re the star of the show tonight. Take Sean and get some lovely pictures. Let me be.
Remember not to drink too much.”
Este pouted and replied, “Okay, be careful on your way back.”
Giving Sean a gentle push, J smiled and said, “Go with Este. She’s all yours from now on.”
After Sean and Este left, J nced at the clock on the wall.
Mesue had been out getting the car for a while. Why wasn’t she there yet?
J anxiously called Mesue. At the same time, she walked towards the entrance of the hotel.
However, before she reached the door, she felt like someone was following her.
When J looked back, she didn’t see anything suspicious, but that strange feeling persisted. The
image of being watched popped into her mind again.
J was convinced that there must be someone behind her!
She’d been carrying a portable taser around ever since thest time she was involved in an ident.
She stealthily reached into her bag. As soon as the person behind her got close to her, she
immediately activated the taser and swung it at the person approaching her from behind.
“Ah! Hey! Do you want to kill me with that thing?” With a shriek and a moan, J spun around and
saw Derek lying on the ground, clutching his belly.
“Why the hell are you here?” Surprised, J put away the taser and squatted down to assist Derek.
“I’m sorry.” “Hey, I asked you toe straight to her and greet her directly, but you said that you
wanted to give her a surprise.” Wilder was also rmed. He and J helped Derek to a corner of the
banquet hall.
Derek covered his belly and wailed, “My innards are in so much pain. Am I going to kick the bucket?”
J also got anxious. “Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. My mini taser isn’t that powerful.
Hang in there. I’ll call the doctor.”
“There’s no need. Just press it with your hand. That will do it.” Derek ced J’s hand on his belly
and continued to cry out in pain.
Staring at Derek with a poker face, J arched her eyebrows and grinned. “Does it work? Allow me to
give you a soothing massage then!”
She pinched Derek’s stomach firmly.
“Ouch! J! You!” Derek was outraged but he didn’t dare to say anything. Realizing that his little trick
had been uncovered, heposed himself and straightened out his suit. “Are you smelling a rat? You
even brought a taser with you! If I had been snapped by my fans when I stumbled just now and it
trended on the top search, you would be the one taking the heat!”
Sitting beside Derek, J felt a bit guilty. “I thought someone was approaching me on purpose just
now, so I defended myself subconsciously. I didn’t expect you to be here.”

Wilder stood in front of the two and said with a smile, “Don’t get him wrong, Mrs. Larson. Derek is here
for the activity. Many film and televisionpanies want to invite him to film his first TV series after he
transformed to an actor from a model, so he had been socializing just now and hadn’te to greet
you.”
Derek red at Wilder unhappily. He grabbed a strawberry from the table and popped it into his mouth.
“It’s all because you’ve been pushing me to mingle with those female bosses. Otherwise, I wouldn’t
have to wait until now.”
Just a moment ago, Derek saw that J was about to leave, so he came to her after dealing with
those old biddies.
With a look of disappointment, Wilder pointed at Derek with his quivering hands and said, “You brat,
don’t you know how good I am to you? You are on the verge of
transforming your career, so you have to interact with more producers. They are all producers of hit
domestic TV series. If you y ball with them, you can secure your reputation, which will be a feather
in your cap in the future.”
“Why are you always yammering like an old crow?” Holding his chin, Derek began to bicker with Wilder.
However, J was thinking about something else.
Derek must have seen her going at it with Kathie and wanted to help, but he was dragged away by
Wilder all the time. Was this the root of her illusion that she had been under someone’s eye?
