Let me go, Mr. Hill [by Shallow South] Chapter 1470 Chester propped both his legs up on the coffee table, his eyes dark and bottomless. âEliza, youâre quite a scheming woman. You made a bet with Director Cheever on your acting in front of the crew. You simply outdid the male lead, whoâs the best actor, much less Cindy. You wanted to let Director Cheever know that youâre a perfect actress so that he wonât be able to bring himself to lose you.
However, since youâre staying, youâd steal the limelight from Cindy whoâs supposed to play the lead.
Hence, Director Cheever had no choice but to kick Cindy out. Cindy doesnât want to let you steal her thunder following the release of the movie. As such, she couldnât do anything else other than leave reluctantly.â
âWell, thereâs nothing I can do about it. Initially, I just wanted to obediently play the first supporting female role, but your fiancée bribed the crew to trouble me on the first day.â
Eliza started packing her things calmly. She was going to check out and return to Canberra later.
âTo be honest, your fiancée Cindy doesnât like me because she saw me coming out of your office looking disheveled the other day. Sheâs been thinking of me as a thorn in her side since then. If everyone had been willing to peacefully finish shooting this movie, Iâd be happy to play opposite her as the first supporting actress. But obviously, she had no intention of doing so.â
Eliza raised her head and looked at Chester coolly. â Sorry, I canât tolerate and shy away from her all the time. The more I shy away, the more she takes pleasure in bullying me. Whatâs more, why am I to blame for her poor acting?â
âHow dare you badmouth my fiancée in front of me and make her seem worthless?! â Chester grimly unfastened a button on his collar.
âIâm just telling the truth. If you wish to hear insincere remarks, you can look for someone else.â
Eliza continued impassively, âSheâs not worthless. She should be⦠good in bed. Otherwise, why would you have chosen her out of many other beautiful women?â
âEliza, are you saying I pick a marriage partner with the lower half of my body?â Chester stood up and walked up to her. He pinched her chin, smiling mirthlessly.
Only at that point did he realize that her skin was so soft. It felt wonderful to the touch.
With her chin being pinched, her pink lips that curled upward a little looked so sexy that he had the sudden impulse to kiss them.
Eliza held her breath. She could clearly sense the changes in the manâs gaze and his menacing scent at such a close distance. As a result, she did not dare act recklessly. âNo. I just think that youâre more concerned about the lower half of your body than love.â
âYou understand me really well.â Chester approached her with a sinister smile.
Eliza slowly retreated until her bottom landed on the bed.
Chester bent over and pinned both her hands on the bed. Both of them remained in a flirtatious position. âEliza, donât forget that at the end of the day, Cindy is my fiancée. When you forced Director Cheever to kick her out, it was a slap in the face for me. People who previously dared do this to me are no longer in Australia.â
âSo?â Eliza scanned the man closely with her stony eyes.
Chester felt helpless. With his handsome face and outstanding identity, any woman who saw him back then would blush and melt. Only Eliza behaved like a cold-blooded woman. âI can destroy you.â
After some time, he continued, âHaving said that, if you consider spending the night with me, I might let you go.â
Eliza looked down with a note of sarcasm flashing across the depths of her eyes.
This was the man she used to be madly in love with. He was really⦠disgusting.
âIf I could agree, I wouldnât have fought back in the office last time.â Eliza shook her head. âYoung Master Jewell, actually⦠You used to do it with Charity, huh?â
Chesterâs body stiffened.
The mention of Charity touched his raw nerve.
âBut I heard when Charity was arrested back then, you were the one who personally got an attorney to send her to jail.â
Eliza broke free from his hand and said with a cold gaze, âAlthough I havenâ t talked to Charity for a long time, Iâll remember her face forever. Sheâs my childhood friend. Iâm sorry but I canât spend the night with the man who used to sleep with my friend. I just find it uncomfortable. Iâd rather lose everything.â
