Chapter 235

The next day.

The next day, the film crew chartered several planes to head to Snowstock together.

Susan and Theresa had just settled into their seats when a familiar voice rang out.

“Ms. Miller, it seems we are destined to meet again.” Eason, all smiles, was sitting right behind Susan.

Susan was momentarily speechless. “Mr. Nicholas? Weren’t you in Anaville to expand your business?”

Eason chuckled. “Business expansion is almost done. Suddenly felt like traveling. Hearing about the scenic beauty of Snowstock, I decided to join the film crew’s chartered flight.”

Susan responded. “…That’s quite a coincidence.”

“How else to explain our fate?” Eason quickly added.

Susan turned awkwardly away.

“See, he’s definitely pursuing you, right?” Theresa whispered.

“It doesn’t seem like he’s pursuing me. But his actions are indeed bizarre,” Susan whispered back.

“Nowadays, perverts come in the most respectable forms. Be careful with him,” Theresa advised.

“I will, Susan replied.

Unaware of being categorized as a pervert, Eason at the back was trying his best to maintain a perfect smile, hoping Susan would turn and see his best side.

Unfortunately, his efforts went in vain.

During the eight–hour flight, his face stiffened from smiling, but Susan never looked his way again.

That evening, when the plane landed at the airport, everyone switched to cars for the rest of the journey.

After a tiring journey, they finally settled down in the hotel late at night.

Susan used overtime as an excuse to decline Ben’s video call request.

She planned to find Ben tomorrow and surprise him the next day.

Susan and Theresa shared a room.

Observing Susan’s lovesick smile, Theresa couldn’t help but show her disgust. “Look at you, utterly smitten. Susan,

you’re letting our side down.”

“Heh, let it be,” Susan chuckled. “What about you? Thomas still doesn’t know you’re Rose, right? Disappearing for four months, have you thought about how to explain it to him?”

“What’s there to explain?” Theresa casually remarked. “He’s nothing to me. My disappearance will probably send a clear message to our families. Once I’m back, the worst I’ll face is a scolding from my mom. I can’t just marry someone for the sake of it.”

“Fair point.” Susan casually agreed, then suddenly exclaimed in surprise. “How did Thomas get involved with Monica? This photo on WhatsApp is way too intimate.”
