The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 35: Chapter 34: Explanation

Elliana Lyle stared at her phone, not knowing how to reply, and the sadness from earlier had dissipated quite a bit.

She nervously bit her fingernails, her eyes fixed on the screen.

What to do! What to do!

After thinking for a long while, Norman Bennett had already sent several more messages. She had no idea how to explain to him.

It seemed she still needed to hide at Phoebe Lyle’s place, then head straight to the film crew in two days. As long as she didn’t see Norman, everything could be resolved!

Buzz buzz~

Norman Bennett: "You better give me a reasonable explanation."

Luna looked at Elliana’s anxious and flustered expression, sighed, and said, "Don’t worry, Rupert Zeller will be fine. She still has an uncle who cares for her. I’ll send you the results later and won’t charge you."

Ring ring~

Immediately, Norman Bennett called via video. Elliana was stunned.

She took a deep breath and then answered the call.

"Hey hey, Norman..." Elliana grinned. It’s often said that a smiling person won’t be hit; with the dim light, nothing seemed amiss with her.

At first, Norman Bennett’s gaze was somber, but when he saw her, his expression softened.

At least this girl was safe for now.

"Where are you now?" Norman looked at the cheerful little girl on the phone screen, and seeing her smile made him less angry.

Elliana moved the phone screen further away, aiming it at Luna, and said, "I’m here playing with my classmate."

Luna glanced at the phone with the corner of her eye, teasingly said, "Your dad is really young."

"No! He’s not my dad; he’s... he’s my not-yet-married husband!" Elliana explained to Luna.

When he heard the word "husband," Norman was stunned for a moment, his heart in chaos as if his heart was bouncing around unpredictably.

However, Elliana sensed something was off and corrected herself, "I misspoke, I meant fiancé."

"You’re in the car, where are you going?" Norman regained his usual aloof tone, his voice carrying an unspoken pressure.

Elliana looked at the phone and smiled, "I’m going back to Sister Phoebe’s place, I’ll take a taxi to the film crew myself in two days."
