Chapter 144 How About Being My Mistress


    Samuel didn''t care about that until he discovered grandma''s video call history log with someone called


    Yi. He could tell that Yi was very likely to be E. Not only grandma, but Jerry had been in touch with


    E too.


    What''s more, E must have been instructing Jerry to hide their contact from him.


    ''E Bo, what a sophisticated woman you are!


    How do you still win Jerry''s affection after disappearing for four years?'' Samuel thought to himself.


    After the smoke in the room dissipated, he stood up to close the window and went to the bathroom.


    Jerry had already fallen asleep when he stepped out of the bathroom.


    He turned off the bedmp,id beside Jerry and held him close.


    Fondling Jerry''s chubby body, Samuel couldn''t help disying a grin.


    Jerry wriggled to find afortable position in Samuel'' arms and muttered in his sleep, "Mom...Jane..."


    Hearing Jerry muttering about E, Samuel was immersed in dejection, so much so that he neglected

    Jerry''s mentioning of the name "Jane".


    Samuel and Jerry had moved out of the Royal Mansion since E left.


    Thus in thest few years, most of Jerry''s time was spent staying in the old house with his great-


    grandma, taking part in banquets with Samuel or roaming in Samuel''spany to kill time.


    It was the first time that Samuel had stepped into the mansion in four years.


    But he didn''t have the chance to get upstairs.


    Samuel was convinced of the old saying that a strict father cultivates an outstanding son, But he had


    been a loving father trying his best to meet all Jerry''s requests over the years.


    He found Jerry was smart but also a little precocious.


    Samuel thought living without a mother''s care was the reason for Jerry''s precocity at first.


    He thought Jerry might have been subconsciously pushing himself to be strong.


    But he denied this assumption soon after he knew Jerry had been in touch with E.


    The clock on the wall was making the tick-tocking sound, preventing Samuel from falling asleep.


    He loosened Jerry, grabbed his mobile phone on the night stand and unlocked it as he walked towards


    the study room. Samuel couldn''t help opening Wechat and inputting E''s new phone number into the


    search box. The result was the user named Yi, as expected.


    He sent a friend request to Yi with text saying, "Your son misses you!"


    ''The only one she cares in this family now is Jerry. For her, I am nothing but a jerk who forced her to


    have an abortion four years ago.'' Samuel was lost in thought.


    Unexpectedly, his request was epted by E. He thought E had already fallen asleep.


    But neither of them sent greetings to one another.


    Samuel browsed E''s Wechat album. Most of the photos were about herself shooting films and taking


    part in activities.


    But there were also several photos of a little girl with either her back or side, facing the camera.


    ''Who is this little girl? Is she her daughter? Did she give birth to a daughter for another man?''


    At this thought, Samuel was furious. He returned back to the chat page and sent a message to E,


    "Are you hooking up with another man?"


    Samuel stared at the screen, waiting for E''s reply, anxiously. ''If she dares to reply with a yes, I will kill


    that man!'' He clenched his teeth and thought.


    Seeing Samuel''s question, E, who was lulling Jane to sleep in the bed, was confused. She was


    baffled about why Samuel asked that question.


    Thinking of Catherine, E replied, yes. ''There are rumours circting on the inte about me and


    many handsome male entertainers so this answer will be convincing to Samuel.'' E thought with a


    bitter smile.


    In her opinion, even if she gave Samuel a negative answer, Samuel would still be suspicious of her.


    Later on, when E was about to fall asleep, her mobile phone on the night table rang, indicating a new


    Wechat message.


    "Are you a mistress of some rich guy who can provide you with many opportunities in the entertainment


    circle?"


    Seeing Samuel''s reply, E was disappointed and heartbroken. ''Is this what he thinks of me?'' E


    thought. She took a deep breath and replied, "Yes."


    E waited for around half an hour before she received Samuel''s reply.


    "How about, if youe sleep with me tonight, I will consider investing in another movie and let you be


    the leadingdy of it?"


    Seeing Samuel''s reply, E''s eyes widened in anger. She tried her best to be calm and replied, "You


    are disgusting!"


    E thought she would have to wait for a long time again before receiving Samuel''s reply. But Samuel


    replied to her message quicker this time round.


    "But your reactionst night told me you enjoyed my service very much."


    ...


    "Samuel Shao, I beg you to leave me alone. Please..."


    E waited for another half an hour before she received Samuel''s reply, "So... what do you think of my


    proposal? I''d like to have you answer now."


    E sneered. She replied, "You''d better get your fiancee''s approval first."


    ''How ridiculous is Samuel Shao. Hoping his ex-wife to be his mistress!'' E thought.


    "You will agree to my proposal one day. Wait and see! " replied Samuel.


    E didn''t reply. It was toote at night and she was sleepy. She put her mobile phone back on the


    night table, held Jane close to her and fell asleep soon after.


    It was two o''clock in the morning when Samuel finished his cigarette. He walked back to the bedroom,


    The next day in the morning, E set out to the filming set early.


    She took a nap before filming the fight scenes in the afternoon.


    An imperial concubine drove a wedge between Crystal and Lily. Crystal was tricked into fighting with


    Lily.


    Both Crystal and Lily were good at martial arts so the garden was in a mess.


    Upon hearing that the two concubines were fighting in the garden, the emperor hurried towards them.


    Glimpsing at the emperor, Lily became distracted and her sword missed Crystal and scratched Amber''s


    arm.


    "Ah!" Amber cried out.


    The filming crew were all confused. ording to the script, the scratch was supposed to be very slight.


    But why did Amber cry out loudly?


    Then Amber''s arm started bleeding. Blood seeped through and soaked the cloth around the wound.


    Seeing that, the whole crew were astonished and rushed to Amber. The sword was just a stage tool


    which was supposed to be blunt. How was that possible?


    Seeing Amber bleeding, E became frightened.


    An assistant rushed to Amber with a emergency first-aid box.


    The director walked to them, nced at the sword in E''s hand and shifted his sight to E. Then he


    turned to the crowd and asked, "Who is in charge of stage property?"


    A woman scooted to the director, "It''s me director Xiao."


    "Why is the sword sharp? Who prepared this? They are fired!"


    A thin man ran to the director, "I''m sorry, director. It''s my mistake. Please spare me this time..."


    The man begged for his job, as he continuously winked at E.


    Seeing that, E was totally confused. ''Who is this man?


    Why does he keep winking at me?'' E wondered.


    Other film crew noticed the man''s behaviour and started staring at E suspiciously.
