Chapter 1032
I didnโt expect it to happen so quickly; my dad had already lost to Quentin and didnโt want to talk to him.
I leaned back in my chair and sneered at him, โWhy are you telling me this? Are you trying to get me to help share his debt, too?โ
โOf course not.โ Quentin said urgently, โDadโs matter, I definitely wonโt trouble you. I just feel upset and want to find someone to talk to.โ
Upon hearing this, I felt even more ironic in my heart. โWhy donโt you confide in your Kimberly? She is your favorite person, isnโt she? Just confide in her.โ
Quentin suddenly fell silent. After a few seconds, he spoke again, his voice tinged with sadness and self-mockery. โWith our dad looking like this, who wouldnโt find him annoying and irritating?โ
Kimberly used to give him some money at first, enough for him to live comfortably, but he insisted on messing around. Later, Kimberly promised to give him five million, but he was still not satisfied. Now he has lost so much money, creating such a big mess. The debt collectors and his two mistresses came almost every day. Kimberly was also annoyed, telling me not to bother about him and let him fend for himself.
I could tell that Kimberly was really fed up with him, too, so I didnโt feel right talking about him in front of Kimberly all the time; after all, he is her father.
I lowered my head, with a hint of joy in my heart. With that being said, Kimberly had also had enough of my dadโs bottomless pit and would no longer pay attention to my dad. So, if the debt collectors push harder, will my dad come begging to me? However, although things were developing as I had expected, perhaps they were progressing too smoothly, and I still felt a slight unease in my heart.
Quentin noticed that I had been silent for a while. He pursed his lips and smiled at me, saying, โIโm just venting to you; itโs okay if you listen. Donโt let my words affect your mood.โ
I sneered, โDonโt worry, I wonโt let some insignificant people affect my mood.โ
Quentinโs smile froze on his face, and he looked at me deeply without saying anything more.
In order to see the scene where Kimberly was bitten by a snake, I stayed on set for the whole afternoon. Honestly, it was quite boring without Johnathan around.
Finally, I heard Gilbert say, โItโs a wrap.โ I saw Kimberly take off her makeup and wig and walk towards the dressing room. Quentin also followed.
To avoid arousing suspicion, I quickly took the script and went to find Gilbert, pretending to discuss the script with him, but actually waiting for Kimberly to be bitten by a snake.
After waiting for about ten minutes, a sharp and piercing scream suddenly came from the direction of the changing room. The scream was much more exaggerated than Vonnieโs scream that day, and it startled everyone present.
Everyone ran towards the locker room. I pretended to be surprised and asked Gilbert, โWhatโs happening over there? Shall we go and take a look?โ
Gilbert said uninterestedly, โIโm not going.โ Finishing speaking, he pointed to a certain part and continued to discuss with me, โRight here, I think the psychology in this section can be strengthened a bit more, and also, the female lead hereโฆโ
I: โฆ
This man was really obsessed when talking about the plot. I wish I hadnโt pretended to discuss the plot with him.
Thinking about it, Quentin suddenly ran towards us with a look of anxiety on his face, holding Kimberly, followed by a group of people.
