Aldrich wasnât concerned about her identity.
His focus was on the results.
âI like it.
â
âExactly.
We need to get her into the company, to âaccidentallyâ bump into Brian.
â
Selinaâs voice hardened.
âRosalynnâs pregnant, isnât that a time when men crave companionship the most?â
A sly smile spread across Aldrichâs face.
As a man himself, he understood their vulnerabilities all too well.
âIâll handle the arrangements.
â
Selinaâs smile widened.
âThere you go,â she said to the woman on the screen.
âIâll end the call now.
Youâll be starting at Hughes Group in a few days.
â
âSounds good,â the woman replied before the call ended.
Selina pocketed her phone and turned to Aldrich, âStill think Iâm not capable of helping you achieve your goals?â
A mischievous glint lit up Aldrichâs eyes as he pinched her chin, inspecting the red mark from the slap.
âDoes it hurt?â
âWhat do you think?â Selina retorted, a mix of resent
ment and sadness clouding her features.
Aldrich pulled her into a hug, his lips trailing down to nibble on her earlobe.
âLet me make the pain go away,â he murmured seductively.
His touch grew more insistent.
Selina instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck.
Aldrichâs charm was undeniable, leaving her weak in the knees.
Yet her eyes remained cool and detached.
She had no love for him.
He was outwardly charming, but his heart was that of a snake.
She loathed relying on him and put all the blame on Rosalynn!
Rosalynn was living a life of blissful marriage and family; she had even won over Noemi.
The very idea gnawed at Selina.
She would do whatever she could to ruin Rosalynnâs life!
On Saturday, Rosalynn made a trip to the film set where everything was proceeding as usual.
The screenwriter, Tilda, held the original work in such high regard that she kept the dialogue virtually unchanged.
