Chapter 39

“Kenneth…” Jennifer looked at them in disbelief. She never expected Kenneth to hold Angela like this in public.

Even during their passionate days, Kenneth had never embraced Jennifer this way.

A tumultuous wave of jealousy nearly overwhelmed Jennifer

Kenneth put Angela down, clearly not expecting Jennifer to show up there.

With a mocking expression, Angels headeil

il for the elevator. “Take your time. I won’t interrupt you,” she said.

Then she closed the elevator doors, not wanting to see Kenneth’s angry gaze anymore.

However, once the elevator started moving, Angela realized she didn’t have her hotel room card and her ID card, which were with Kenneth. She couldn’t access her room, but she didn’t want to go back to Kenneth just yet

She pressed for the twentieth floor, remembering an indoor pool and a restaurant there. She thought it would be nice to grab a bite and rest. Upon reaching the twentieth floor, Angels found a restaurant and sat down when she ran into P

Patrick.

“Angela, what brings you here?” Patrick asked,

Angela smiled, “Just here for a weekend getaway. What shout you?”

I’m here for a movie shoot. We have a few scenes to film nearby. I just arrived today and didn’t expect to bump into you”

Angela nodded. “I won’t keep you from your work then. Go ahead.

“Tim not in a rush. Filming starts tomorrow. I just finished meeting with the director and other actors”

“Oh, how long will you be here?”

“Probably just over a week. By the way, do you remember your promise to treat me to a meal!”

Surprised, Angela raised an eyebrow. “You must have eaten with the director just now, right? Is eating still an option for you?”

Patrick sat across her, somewhat helplessly, and said, “You know, I barely had a chance to fill my stomach when having meals with directors. because we were mostly talking”

Angela chuckled, passing him the menu, “Then order whatever you like!”

“Well, I will:

After they ordered, Patrick poured Angela a glass of water and asked, “Are you here alone?”

Angela shook her head. “No, I’m here with my husband”

“Mr. Sinclair is here too?”

Patrick looked a bit downcast, his voice dropping. “Have you two n

made up!”

Angela suddenly remembered Kenneth mentioning that Patrick had feelings for her.

She tightened her grip on her glass, then thought she was overthinking it. Having been Patrick’s manager for over a year, she felt he would have expressed his feelings before she got married.

With that thought, she looked at Patrick. “No, we’re just pretending everything is fine.

After a brief silence, Patrick suddenly said, “If you need a lawyer, I can introduce someone to you”

Before he could finish his words, a cold voice sounded from behind. “This is a matter between Angela and me. You don’t need to worry about it!”

Patrick turned and saw Kenneth approaching with a cold and stern look.

Feeling threatened, he still faced Kenneth fearlessly,

They locked eyes, creating a tense atmosphere

Angela frownrd, looking coldly at Kenneth.

Kenneth was furious, thinking that Angela was already dining with another man in his short absence. He feared that Angela might have utarted flirting with someone else if he had been any later!

walked over and sat down next to Angela, smirking at Patrick.

He wa

Calin and unafraid, Patrick smiled and said, “Mr. Sinclair, anything concerning Angela is my business. I’m always ready to lend a hand if she needs

Kenneth looked at him coldly. “Surprising to see you so eager to help, even meddling in Angela’s personal affairs. But you should focus more on improving your acting skills rather than poking your nose into others business!”

“My acting is none of your concern, Mr. Sinclair,

They locked eyes, neither willing to back down

Sensing the growing tersion, Angela frowned at Kenneth, “If you’re here to cause trouble, you can leave now.

Kenneth’s anger surged. He gritted his teeth and said, “Angela, can you believe this guy is trying to come between us Who’s really stirring the pot here?”

Angela’s eyes were cold. “First. Patrick is not some rude guy. He’s my friend. Please show some respect; second, our relationship doesn’t need anyone to sow discord. We both know what it really is.

Now laughing in anger. Kenneth grabbed Angela’s hand and started to walk out,

As they passed Patrick, he suddenly grabbed Angela’s other hand,

Patrick said, “Mr. Sinclair, didn’t you see Angela almost fell?”

When he saw Kenneth treat Angela so rudely, anger rose in Patrick’s heart. He was furious that Angela had once given up everything to choose this

man!

elt that if Angela were with him, he would never let her suffer or get hurt, certainly unlike Kenneth, who showed no regard for her feelings!

Patrick felt

Upon seeing Patrick holding Angela’s hand. Kenneth turned back. His eyes widened in surprise and anger.

Kenneth said, “Let go, if you still want your hand!”

Undaunted by the threat, Patrick said sternly, “You’re the one who should let her go!”

They stood in a standoff, quickly drawing the attention of those around.

Angela, with a headache, had just wanted a quiet meal and never expected things to become like this.

She remained silent, then briskly shook of both their hands and walked out of the restaurant.

Just as Angela reached the elevator, Kenneth caught up.

Kenneth said, “Angela, it seems you never learn. If I don’t teach you a lesson, you’ll never behave!”

He took out his phone and called Kevin. “Check what movies or TV shows Patrick has coming up or is about to sign, immediately…”

Before he could finish his words, Angela snatched the phone away,

Then Angela ended the call swiftly, scoffing. “Kenneth, is this the best you can do!”

Kenneth looked gloomy and said coldly, “Do you think this will stop me from dealing with Patrick? Unless you watch me twenty- always find a way to make him disappear from showbiz?”

-four–seven I’ll

Angela frowned, about to speak, when Patrick’s cold voice came from behind. “Angela, don’t worry about this. I want to see how Mr. Sinclair plans to make me disapprar!”

Angela turned to Patrick and whispered. This is between him and me. I don’t want to drag you into this mess.

Angela felt that Kenneth was obviously taking out his anger on Patrick Patrick had worked hard for years to get where he was, and she didn’t want to see his career ruined because of her.

Patrick smiled and said. Tim not afraid, and I don’t believe you can control everything. Mr. Sinclair“
