Chapter 1535

This job earned her a handsome salary, and allowed her to settle down in Richburgh. It could be said that her job was as important to her as Vans was.

In fact, it might even be more important than Vans.

Without her job, she wouldn’t be who she was today.

But without Vans…

She might still be herself.

“Yes, you can,” Marcus said, his interest piqued by her sudden show of aggression. She had never seen a woman’s eyes light up like this at the mention of her job. “Do you enjoy being an entertainment reporter?”

“Not really,” Nina shook her head. “I like the money that this job brings.”

The assistant burst out laughing. He felt as though he had found a bosom friend. “Ms. Ashlee, me too!”

As salaried workers, a shared sentiment and exchanged glances are enough for them to understand each other.

Nina smiled, slightly embarrassed.

The atmosphere in the room lightened up.

A genuine smile stretched across Marcus’s face.

“Ms. Ashlee, has anyone said that…”

“Said what?”

‘That there’s innocence and idiocy in your eyes.”

Nina muttered, “I’ll take it that you’re praising me for being young.”

Marcus smiled a most brilliant smile. It felt like a flower blooming right before her.

She finally understood why the assistant said it was difficult for Marcus to shift to a tragic main lead persona. This crisis was indeed a golden opportunity for him.

“Give me some time,” Nina said seriously. “Let me think about it, alright?”

Marcus agreed to her request. However, he only agreed to it verbally. Very soon, the assistant entered the study and came out with a document, which he handed to Nina.

Nina opened it up. “A couple agreement?” Marcus explained, “Sign it and help me in my career transformation, and I’ll help you make your boyfriend stay. We can extricate ourselves from all this cyberbullying.

What’s more…”

Nina had to admit that Marcus was a very convincing man.

“Didn’t you tell that kid over the phone that you found him a godfather? How are you going to explain things to him if you fail to do that?”

Nina stammered, “My boyfriend…is his…godfather…”

“No, I’m his godfather now.”

Sean, who suddenly got himself a new godfather, sneezed.” Ahchoo!”

Diana thought he caught a cold, and hurriedly grabbed a jacket for him to wear.

Sean immediately assured her, “I don’t feel cold.”

He just felt an itch in his nose just now.

Diana didn’t force him to wear it. “I’ll adjust the temperature of the air conditioning.”

Sean nodded. “Mommy, do you really think Nina will be fine this time?”

The comments online were vicious, and he was getting worried.

Diana’s brows furrowed, equally worried about the Woozle effect of the raging rumors.

Just then, Julian returned from work. Diana immediately stepped forward, updating him about what happened to Nina.

“Remind Vans that since he refuses to let Nina go…he should at least fulfill his obligation as a boyfriend,” she said.

“If he were to fulfill that obligation, Nina’s current boyfriend might get jealous,”

Julian said.

Diana was shell-shocked. ‘They’ve broken up?!”

Sean immediately chimed in, “Yes, yes! Mommy, did you forget? Nina told us over the phone that she was dating that actor. Seems like it’s true.”

He thought Nina was saying it just to comfort him. As it turned out, she was telling the truth!

“Take a look for yourself,” Julian said as he switched the television on to the entertainment news channel. ‘The internet’s filled with news about them being together.”
