Chapter 320

Esteban’s phone rang, jerking Nicole out of her daze. Esteban looked at his phone and found that the

caller was Willard, the rich man who had brought Eliana trouble recently.

But why was that pervert calling him?

It was with a deep frown that Esteban answered the phone. “Mr. Hancock, what’s the matter?”

“Esteban, I wish to make an appointment with Miss Swift alone. Will she be able to accommodate me in

her schedule?”

Esteban’s face soured. He turned on the speaker and shifted the phone close to Nicole so that she

could hear the conversation, too.

“But Mr. Hancock, why do you want to meet Nicole?”

“Last time, there was a misunderstanding between Miss Swift and I. I just want to meet her so that I

can clear the air with her. You know how small the entertainment circle is, right? We might bump into

each other in the future soon.”

Bullshit. As if that’s all this old lecher wants. Nicole thought to herself, rolling her eyes.

She was about to ask Esteban to turn Willard down, but the latter’s next words made her change her

mind.

“If Miss Swift can make some time to have dinner with me, I will consider casting her as the female lead

in Dewitt Lamont’s new movie, Starlight.”

Nicole’s eyes narrowed shrewdly when she heard this.

With an imperceptible nod of her head, she signaled Esteban to agree to Willard’s proposal.

Esteban knew that he had no chance of dissuading Nicole, so he gritted his teeth and replied, “That

can be arranged. Text me the time and place, and I’ll adjust Nicole’s schedule accordingly.”

“You are a smart man. Don’t worry. Both you and Miss Swift will benefit from this in the future. Ha-ha…”

With Willard’s cunning laughter still ringing from the other end of the line, Esteban hung up the phone.

“God, why did you agree to meet that pervert? You know what he wants, right?”

Nicole shrugged her shoulders indifferently. “Of course.”

“Then why did you agree to go?” Esteban asked anxiously. “Reputation is an important thing for an

actress. If you’re involved in a scandal with a dirty man like Willard, you will be doomed. Besides, if

Cheryl finds out that you stole her sugar daddy under her nose, do you think she’ll sit still and do

nothing?”

Nicole listened to Esteban’s sincere advice with a faint smile on her face. There was a cold glint in her

eyes as she said, “Don’t worry. I’m not that stupid. Willard has been getting on my nerves for a long

time. Since he dares to go this far, I’ll teach him a lesson once and for all.”

“Nicole, please don’t cause any trouble.”

Esteban rubbed his forehead helplessly. What could he do in this situation? He could only blame

himself for spoiling Nicole.

In the twinkling of an eye, the day of the dinner with Willard arrived.

Willard had invited Nicole to dine with him at a high-class private restaurant, where he arrived a few

minutes earlier than the appointed time and waited diligently at the door.

After a while, a white van rolled to a stop at the entrance, and the door of the van slid open. Wearing a

stunning low-cut dress and high-heeled shoes, Nicole stepped out of the van, twisting her hips expertly.

When Willard saw how sexy and coquettish Nicole looked in this outfit, his eyes almost popped out of

their sockets. This was beyond his expectations. With a wide smile, he excitedly walked up to her.

“Miss Swift, it’s my honor to have dinner with you today,” he said, reaching out to touch the small of

Nicole’s back.

“I’m flattered, Mr. Hancock.” Nicole turned slightly, dodging Willard’s hand as if she hadn’t noticed it.

“Let’s go inside.”

After saying that, she walked straight into the restaurant, leaving Willard behind.

Like a wild dog hooked on the smell of meat, Willard immediately followed her attentively.

Coincidentally, Wyatt happened to be at the same restaurant.

The Todd family had built their fortune in the food and catering industry, and this particular restaurant

just so happened to be one of theirs. After the accident at Moonlight last time, Wyatt had become a lot

more mature. This time, he had come to this restaurant in person to inspect and learn.

He was sitting in his seat and carefully leafing through the menu when he heard several waitresses

whispering behind him. Among their whispers, one name clearly jumped out to him—Willard.

Willard Hancock? Isn’t that the guy who was trending on the hot search list because he was allegedly

keeping Eliana as his mistress?

Wyatt continued to look at the menu, but pricked up his ears to listen to what the waitresses were

talking about.

“Did you watch the live streaming that day? It seems that whole mistress news was fake!”

“I did. It turns out that the woman in the report wasn’t his mistress at all. She was framed.”

“Then who do you think is Willard’s mistress?”

The waitresses enthusiastically gossiped about who Willard’s real mistress could be.

Unexpectedly, the protagonist of their discussion, Willard himself, walked into the restaurant at that

time with Nicole. The two of them sat at a table not far away from Wyatt.
