“It’s not my style to force anyone into doing something they don’t want to. You can pretend that I never said what I said last night.”

No sooner had he spoken than a chilly breeze blew past, causing Angeline to shudder.

Rubbing her arms to keep herself warm, she lowered her eyes to hide the disappointment in them. “Okay. I never took it seriously anyway.”

Given that those words were uttered under such amorous circumstances, she didn’t dare put too much hope in them.

She took it as if she was rehearsing for a role. After all, she was extremely adept at acting out such scenes.

Ding Dong…

It was then that her phone suddenly rang.

When Angeline picked it up and saw the caller ID showing Jonathan’s name, a grim expression descended upon her face. It had been a long while since she last contacted him.

Before she even had time to take leave from Evander, she dropped the coconut she was holding and hurriedly wore her slippers before rushing off to a secluded corner.

Once the coast was clear, she called Jonathan back and asked in a deep voice, “What is it?”

“Why have you become so cold just because we haven’t seen each other in a long time? Do all pretty girls behave that way?” Jonathan teased over the phone.

Feeling annoyed, Angeline lowered her voice as she reminded him, “I’m in the middle of filming. Whatever it is, make it quick.”

It was understandable for her to be harsh, as their collaboration was considered top secret, where a single error was enough to cause them to fall into a trap.

At her cue, Jonathan stopped joking and spoke in a serious tone instead. “What I’m going to tell you is shocking. You had better prepare yourself.”

“Go on.”

As if something dawned upon her, Angeline’s throat bobbed minutely while her grip on her chiffon dress tightened.
