Steven really did not expect for Charlie to actually be interested in matters related to his private life. 3
He came from a big and prestigious family, and he paid great attention to his own private life. So, Steven could not help but subconsciously feel extremely nervous when Charlie suddenly asked him about this matter. He could only stammer and delay things as he did not dare to respond to this question.
Charlie could not help but frown as he asked, "Why? Are you not willing to talk about it?"
When Steven saw that Charlie seemed to be dissatisfied, he hurriedly shook his head and said, "N o, no, no. I am willing. I am willing to talk about it..."
Immediately afterward, Steven explained in full details, "That woman is... it's Cecelia Quiroz."
"Cecelia Quiroz?" Charlie asked in surprise, "Are you talking about Cecilia Quiroz who is also known as the most beautiful girl in the film and television circle?" 3
"Yes...” Steven nodded nervously as he said, "It's her..."
Charlie could not help but sigh as he said, "Sigh. I truly did not expect that the most beautiful girl who is portrayed as a symbol of purity in character in the news and media would actually turn out to be your
lover. To think that my wife actually thinks so highly o f her and would often say that she is one of the benchmarks in the entertainment industry. My wife even said that Cecelia Quiroz is a very honest and pure person who exercises excellent self-control and would never get involved in any scandals or gossip. She would not even take on any roles that involve a kissing scene with a male actor. It seems as though most of the people in the entertainment industry would have another unknown side of them too." 3
Steven nodded awkwardly before he stammered and said, "She... she does not accept any roles with kissing scenes because I refused to let her do so. I told her before that she could never have any intimate contact with any other guys, even if she is only acting..." 2
Charlie smacked his lips tightly together before he said, "Tsk, tsk. If everyone in the country finds out that the goddess in their mind is actually together with a fat and ugly middle-aged man like you, I wonder how sad they would be." 4
Steven had a very depressed look on his face, and his face turned red and black alternately. It was obvious that Charlie's words had seriously hurt his self-esteem.
However, even if his self-esteem was hurt, Steven did not dare to say anything in front of Charlie. So, he could only nod out of embarrassment as he said, "Yes. Master Wade, you are right..."
Charlie sneered before he asked him, "Was Cecelia
Quiroz always in Aurous Hill, or did she come here from another place to meet up with you?"
