Chapter 94


    A person''s sess would not be idental. Take Xander, for example. In the eyes of the media, he


    was a n uninhibited man, which gave others the impression that he was careless and had ack of


    purpose in life. No one knew that behind closed doors, he was actually a hardworking and


    considerate man.


    I did not speak more and took the initiative to sit at the farthest end of the sofa. Scripts were


    supposed to b e kept confidential, so I avoided looking at them.


    Xander stood up and stretched himself before lying on the couch in exhaustion.


    "Why don''t you go and have some rest first? I''ll call you when the director is here." I could not bear


    seeing him like this.


    "It''s okay. TH just take a nap. My friends are treating u s to dinner tonight. Let’s go and cadge a


    good meal," h e said with his eyes closed.


    "What if the director and crew arrive?" Xander had mentioned that they were taking the flight at


    night so they must be arriving any time soon.


    "They have things to do today so they''ll onlye over tomorrow. We''ll go and have fun tonight


    before starting work tomorrow."


    "Xander!" I used the magazine in my hand to hit him i n anger. This brat! It turned out that he had


    deceived me toe over one day earlier.


    "I''m so tired. I''ll take a nap. I haven’t slept in 24 hours and can’t hold on anymore." Having said that,


    he picked up the cushion on the sofa and covered his head.


    I knew that he was avoiding me on purpose so I chose to ignore him. Things had already happened


    anyway, and getting mad was not going to help with my current predicament.


    Just as I was feeling bored, Cecilia texted me: [My dear, I''m ready to go home. Do you want any


    presents? I''ll bring them home for you.]

    [No, I’m on a business trip in the South Sea at the moment. We can go shopping together when I


    get back.] I had no particr request in terms of materialistic things, nor did I mor after foreign


    products as much as others.


    [You''re in the South Sea? I’ll take a flight there, then. W e can go back together after that. Send me


    the location. ] Cecilia wanted toe over as soon as she heard that I was in the South Sea.


    I had just sent her my location when I received a call from Mason.


    "Where are you?" His voice was indifferent as ever.


    "On a business trip! Didn''t I tell you?" I answered,


    finding his question ridiculous.


    Mason sighed before continuing, "I know you''re on a business trip. Which hotel are you at? I''m


    going to the South Sea tomorrow. Let''s meet up for lunch."


    It turned out he just wanted to have lunch together. I breathed a sigh of relief and told him my hotel''s


    address. I hung up the call after agreeing to meet him tomorrow.


    Xander was sleeping soundly, and the air-conditioning in the room was quite low. I took a nket


    and covered him with it. Seeing that it was still early, I got ready to take a shower.


    I initially wanted to take a shower in another room, but I could not find the room card no matter


    what.


    Seeing that Xavier was in a deep sleep, I went straight into the room.


    He was sleeping anyway. Plus, with the doors in between and the locks, it was not going to be too


    awkward.


    I felt rxed after the shower and much more refreshed. I blew dry my hair, and when I walked out


    after changing my clothes, I saw Xander talking on the phone with groggy eyes.


    He spoke in a hoarse voice that sounded like he was still asleep. "She''s in the bathroom. Call back


    later."


    Unsure what the other party said, he answered," Sleeping."


    It was only then did I realize he was holding my phone. Astonished, I rushed over but it was already


    toote. The call had already ended.


    "Why did you answer my phone?" I snatched my phone and checked the call history. Sure enough,


    it was a call from Theo.


    "You spent such a long time in the shower, I couldn''t g o in to find you. Your phone kept ringing and I


    was so annoyed so I just picked it up," He sat up and said without a single concern.


    I broke into a sweat and quickly dialed back, but the other party had already blocked me.


    "What did you guys talk about?” I looked at Xander, my tone sounding unfriendly.


    "We didn''t say anything. He asked where you were and I said you were in the bathroom. He then


    asked m e what I was doing so I replied that I was sleeping. I was just telling the truth. Is there


    something wrong with that?" He looked innocently at me.


    I gritted my teeth and said, "Nope, there''s nothing wrong with that at all."


    This would surely cause a misunderstanding.


    However, what else could I say? Was I supposed to punch him? I guess I could only me myself


    for leaving my phone behind.


    Though after thinking about it, it was not a big deal. This was not the first time Theo had blocked my


    number.
