Love Contract novel Chapter 200

At the mention of Victor, Ena blushed and averted her gaze. "Yes, it is proving to be really hard. But I am willing to try my best. Also, I am not stupid. I know you already have Mr. Lan in your heart, right?"

"Well..."

Now it was Mary's time to blush.

A glint of triumph lit up Ena's face and she said, "I knew it! Mary, you are the strongest woman I know.

On the filming set, even Director Jamie listens to you, following all your orders." Mary looked up, wondering where this conversation was going.

"But every time you are with Mr. Lan, you lose that touch of authority. Even though you pretend like you don't like him, you raise the corners of your mouth and look at him with adoration." Mary gaped at Ena, her face a mask of shock.

"Really? Is that so?" Mary couldn't believe it. She had thought she hated William with all her heart. 'Does that mean I....' she thought, startled at the realization.

"Yes!" Ena nodded and said, "Yes, now that I feel that way about Victor, I can sense that emotion in other people."

"Then... How about Barry Gu? I guess you have met him before."

"Yes, I have," Ena said, "and he seems like a good man."

"So when you saw me talking to him, how did I look like?" Mary was like a student, eagerly waiting for an answer.

Ena mulled over her question and said, "Now that I think of it, your manner indicated he was a good friend. Or perhaps a little more than that. I am not sure. I remember Mr. Gu had brought you lunch last time. You were happy to see him, but it didn't look like you were close to each other."

"Really?"

"Yep!" Ena nodded. "But with Mr. Lan, you look completely different."

They stood together for a few more minutes, chit-chatting about relationships.

Standing not far away, William leaned back against the wall and gazed at Mary. With her glowing skin and lovely smile, she was the epitome of beauty. Ena was several years younger than her. In spite of that, it was Mary who had a child-like youth and innocence to her.

While admiring her, he felt a sudden chill in the air. Drip! Drip! Drip!

He felt the rain coming slowly in large drops, but its violence soon increased.

"It's raining. Be quick!" A staff member shouted and everybody else started to pack up.

When William was about to take a step forward, Director Jamie appeared in front of him and said, "Mr. Lan, I didn't expect you would be so patient."

"Director Jamie, have you finished your work?" William raised an eyebrow.

"To be honest," Director Jamie said, "I have been working with Vivian for a long time. I can understand why you are so taken by her, Mr. Lan. With her, everybody feels at ease. Her irresistible beauty pulls people towards her. "

When Director Jamie first started speaking, William had nodded his head in agreement. However, as he listened, he felt a growing suspicion. His eyes flashed angrily and he demanded, "What the hell are you implying? Stop it!

Don't you dare try to get close to her. You filthy man! Just wait and watch."

"Mr. Lan! Mr. Lan!" Director Jamie called out anxiously, trying to calm him down. Patiently, he explained, "I'm just showing you my support. You have misunderstood me. I'm already married." "I'll wait for her here every day!" William roared.

"Okay," Director Jamie said. "What about I arrange a scene for you and our scriptwriter, Mr. Lan?"

"Don't put wrong ideas into my head," said William. He gave a sigh of disgust and retreated. He noticed Mary was done talking with Ena, so he rushed over.

"Mary, I think I should give you guys some privacy," Ena said and gave them a knowing smile. William watched her with a confused expression.

"Just when I thought you had stopped following me!" Mary said with a sigh and shook her head.

"Why is she looking at us like that?" William enquired.

Mary didn't want him to know anything about the conversation they just had. Instead of replying, she changed the subject and said, "Why haven't you left yet?"

"Well..." He scratched the back of his head nervously. "Didn't I tell you I was taking you for dinner? I was waiting for you to be done with your work. If you want to bring kids, that's fine by me," he said playfully.

"Sorry, but I am not coming either way." Her voice sounded calm but firm, a hint of coldness oozing through it. "I have to go back to our company's..." she said, getting ready to leave. "I won't allow you to meet Barry!" His brows and lips quivered angrily.

"Have you gone nuts?" Mary demanded, realizing lots of people were now staring at them. "Barry is my boss! Besides, I am going to our company's storage room. Where will he suddenly pop up from? Keep your voice down."

"Aren't you going to see him?" William appeared relieved. "That's good, that's good," he mumbled.

"I should be leaving." Mary waved at Director Jamie and said, "Director Jamie, let's go to the storage room."

"Okay!" Director Jamie nodded his head in approval.

"I'll go with you," William said, determined to follow her wherever she went.
