Chapter 920

I hadnโ€™t finished speaking when a low growl suddenly sounded beside me. I furrowed my brows and saw Reynaldo staring at me with a fierce look between his eyebrows, as if saying, โ€œIf you dare to go eat with him, I will kill you!โ€ The key is, with his attitude towards me, why does he have the right to control me? Moreover, when I go out to eat with someone, itโ€™s always about work, not something else. Thinking about how he treated me last night, I was so angry that I couldnโ€™t help but hold a grudge against him for a while. I ignored him and turned to Gilbert, saying, โ€œYou reserve a seat.โ€

Gilbert said, โ€œI had made a reservation at the Natural Serenity Restaurant, in private room number 7.โ€ I nodded, โ€œOkay, Mr. Russell, just let me know the specific time when you arrive.โ€ I took out my phone and added Gilbert on WhatsApp as we spoke. During this process, I felt Reynaldoโ€™s eyes were almost โ€œshooting fireโ€ at me.

Johnathan smelled gunpowder and finally stopped flirting with Vonnie. Chapter 30 He leaned over and grinned at Gilbert, saying, โ€œMr. Russell, we are all human beings, too. Why donโ€™t you treat us all while youโ€™re at it?โ€ Gilbert looked down at his phone, added me on WhatsApp, and said without looking up, โ€œNo, I only invited Ms. Duffy.โ€ Johnathanโ€™s face darkened. โ€œAfter all, we are the biggest investors. The day you came to Freybourne, Mr. Humphrey warmly welcomed you. And yet, when it came time to treat you to a meal, you refused?โ€ Gilbert looked at him expressionlessly and said, โ€œWhen you can write such an excellent script like Ms. Duffy, I will treat you.โ€ Johnathan blinked twice, waited for Gilbert to walk away, and then realized angrily, โ€œYou arrogant director, who do you think you are looking down on?โ€

Vonnie looked at him coldly, as if to say, โ€œI look down on you.โ€ Johnathan was feeling down, staring at Vonnie with a poker face, and said, โ€œCan I have a word with you?โ€ Vonnieโ€™s face turned red inexplicably, and she tossed her high ponytail, saying, โ€œNo, I still need to do my makeup.โ€ With that, she walked towards her dressing table. Johnathan followed along eagerly.

At that moment, there was only Reynaldo and me left in the corner, and the manโ€™s gaze seemed even more intense and oppressive. I ignored him and walked away with my bag. Just as I left the crew, Reynaldo chased after me. โ€œEsmeralda, stop right there!โ€ Chapter 20 A deep voice, with a clear sense of oppression and threat.

I stopped, turned around, and saw him walking towards me with a serious face. โ€œNo going out to eat with him alone!โ€ A cold voice, a commanding tone. Ha, thatโ€™s hilarious, why shouldnโ€™t I be allowed? I looked up into his angry eyes and smiled lightly at him, โ€œWhy should I listen to you?โ€ Reynaldo squinted gloomily, anger gathering between his brows. I ignored him and turned to walk towards the car. He grabbed me tightly, his voice deep with a hint of restraint. โ€œIโ€™m telling you again, no going out to eat with him alone.โ€ โ€œWhatโ€™s wrong with you? Let go of me!โ€ I really hated his commanding tone, especially the way he treated me like an enemy and wanted to control me. Why should he have the right to do that?! The more I thought about it, the angrier I got. I forcefully shook his hand, but to my surprise, he didnโ€™t pull me with much force, so I exerted too much force and ended up taking a few steps back, bumping into the car behind me.
