Chapter 334

“He has considered your married status?” Daniel’s expression darkened. He didn’t believe Brian had arranged this with Alice’s marital status in mind.

On the contrary, he knew Brian had a close relationship with Sabrina. It was quite likely that this arrangement was because of Sabrina.

At that moment, Alice was hit with a sudden idea and turned to Daniel. “Hey, Daniel? How about we take the kids out for a little adventure before I dive into filming this weekend?”

“Huh?” Daniel gave Alice a puzzled look.

“Once I’m on set, it’s going to be non-stop filming. Apart from coming home to rest, I won’t have much time with them. So, I thought I’d treat them to some fun beforehand,” Alice explained earnestly.

She had already read through the script and knew that on top of the intense shooting, she’d also have to head to Yanion.

With such a packed schedule, her time with the kids would be scarce. She didn’t want them to feel neglected, so she thought of planning a trip to an amusement park ahead of time.

“Sounds good. Just do it.”

“Perfect, I’ll go ahead and grab some tickets. And over the weekend, I’ll whip up a little surprise for our little darlings.”

“I’ll cover the ticket costs,” Daniel said, handing Alice a bank card. “We’re married, so you should have access to my salary account and all that.”

Alice glanced at the sleek black card and smiled, shaking her head. “You’ve got a professional accountant for that; I won’t be handling it.”

In any case, they would get a divorce sooner or later. It felt odd to be holding his bank card.

Daniel insisted, “I don’t have an accountant. My money is something only my wife can manage.”

Alice responded, “But I can’t even handle my own money properly. How could I manage yours? Daniel, you should handle it yourself. I really can’t help you.”

Alice had initially considered turning down the offer, but seeing Daniel’s expression darken, she eventually sighed, “Alright, I’ll take it for now.”

What choice did she have? Daniel was playing the martyr card, and she couldn’t fend him off!

The next day, when Alice and Alan arrived at the filming location, they spotted Bruce’s nanny car parked in the distance.

Next to the car, his assistant and bodyguards stood stiff, their expressions full of resignation.

Alice and Alan exchanged knowing looks, immediately understanding what was unfolding inside.

Bruce was seriously on edge. He seemed to always want sex.

And at a time like this, he couldn’t even tone it down.

“Thank Go d we’re only doing one ad with him,” Alan remarked with visible relief.

Alice thought to herself, yeah, it’s a good thing it’s just one ad. Otherwise, she might actually lose control and throw a punch at this guy.

While Alice was getting her makeup done, she couldn’t help but overhear the excited chatter of the girls around her.

“Oh my gosh. Bruce looks even hotter in person! I might just faint!”

“I wouldn’t mind jumping into Bruce’s nanny car, even if it’s just for a quick smooch. It’d be the highlight of “Bruce, Bruce, I’m totally obsessed with you! Can we snap a pic together?”

Alice wasn’t taken aback by the girls’ Bruce fever.

After all, he had always been like this. Wherever he went, girls fell head over heels for him.

And he reveled in all the admiration.

Bruce was in high spirits, flashing smiles for every girl he interacted with.

But when he finally locked eyes with Alice, his expression soured upon seeing her. “It’s you.”

Alice didn’t bother turning around; she merely cast a sidelong glance at Bruce through her makeup mirror.

Seeing his once sunny demeanor turn icy, Alice was feeling relatively upbeat and raised an eyebrow with a smirk. “Yep, it’s me. Been a while, how have you been?”

Through gritted teeth, Bruce shot back, “I’m just peachy! How on earth are you a woman?”

As the makeup artist brushed a blush on her cheeks, Alice maintained her smile. “Well, I’ve been a woman all along. I told you before that my outside doesn’t match my inside exactly. But you didn’t buy it.”

With a scornful grin, Bruce’s eyes reddened with fury, his fist clenched. “So, Ashley is Alice!”

To be honest, when he saw Alice’s work, he had his suspicions.

But he couldn’t be certain. He also didn’t want to admit that a woman had played him.

Now, things were different.

Seeing Alice’s striking face and recognizing the familiar look in her eyes, he knew that the Ashley who had tricked him was the same person as the Alice before him.

He had actually been hoodwinked by a woman!

For a while, he thought he was ga y and even avoided women.

Who would’ve guessed it was this petite woman stirring up all the commotion?

“Today we’re working together, and I hope that once we’re done shooting, we won’t have any further contact,” Alice said, flashing a smile.

But Bruce was already fuming, clenching his teeth, wishing he could strangle Alice right then and there.

How could she face him with such an easygoing attitude?

Didn’t she have any idea how much he missed her before?

That infuriating woman!

That da mn woman!

“Bruce, Bruce, is this your advertising partner for today? Heard you’re here to help out Mr. Miller. So, how do you plan to shoot?” A young girl approached, blushing, and asked.

Bruce glanced at the girl, his gaze shifting, and suddenly a wicked grin spread across his face.

“Naturally, we’ll be shooting for real, no holds barred!”

“So you’re really going to do a kissing scene!” The young girl was now excited, holding her face in anticipation.

Other girls gathered around at the mention of a kissing scene.

“Oh my, we’ll get to see Bruce’s kissing scene! I really want to watch it up close!”

“Of course, Bruce will let us get close. After all, we’re part of the crew, it’s different, isn’t it, Bruce?”

Seeing their excitement, Bruce glanced at Alice and nodded with a smile. “Absolutely, you’re all so adorable. I’ll fulfill any requests you have!”

Alice was speechless.

Was he planning to actually do the kissing scene and gross her out, seeking revenge?

If Daniel found out about this, he would surely be jealous.

Before changing into their costumes, Alice faced Bruce alone. “Hey, we agreed that the kissing scene would be staged. Don’t try any funny business.”

Bruce playfully raised an eyebrow. “Who said it’s going to be staged? I’m not taking money to do this ad. If me some perks, how’s that fair?”

‘t give Besides, he had wanted to kiss her for the longest time. Now that he had the chance, he wasn’t going to miss out on a chance for a little payback, especially after occasionally dreaming about her.

Alice frowned, feeling somewhat helpless. “Sorry, I’m already married. As a married person, I can’t just casually do a kissing scene with a man.”

“What did you say? You’re married?” Bruce stood up, cautiously leaning in closer to her. “You’re not making up lies just to disgust me, are you?”

Alice pushed him away, annoyed. “You’re not that important. It’s because my husband is so wonderful that I’m happy to focus on him!”
