Arrogant Man VS Unyielding Woman
Chapter 99 Last Night, You…

"I won't give up no matter what you say or do to me." Ethan fiercely said while he looked at Jean. He looked like he had already made up his mind.

Jean stepped back. Ethan's hands slid down from Jean's shoulder.

Jean took out a credit card from her handbag and handed it to him. "I borrowed money from you before. I was able to save some in this credit card. I will pay you the rest when I receive my salary." "What are you doing?" Ethan looked slightly furious.

"I don't want to owe you anything." Jean said softly with a firm tone. She didn't want to talk any more with Ethan. So, she turned around and walked towards the hotel.

Ethan stood still in the darkness with the credit card he tightly held.

Ethan slowly looked down. His eyes lost their glow and eventually turned dim.

The next morning arrived. John called Jean and instructed her to go to the film studio. The moment she arrived, Jean found out that Sonny had already been there. Selena, who had been known as a dedicated actress, was already in the film studio too. Without John's call to wake her up, Jean might still be lying on her bed. Jean felt guilty and blamed herself about it. Sonny was so good to her, yet she failed to be diligent at her work.

"Jean, come here." Sonny waved his hand and signaled Jean to come to him.

"Sonny."

"You might already know this lady, but I will still introduce her to you. Jean, this is Selena." Sonny introduced Selena to Jean.

Jean was a bit confused. She wondered why Sonny introduced her to Selena. Jean felt flattered by Sonny's kind gesture. She smirked and said, "Hello! I'm Jean Wen. It's nice to meet you." "Hello." Selena wore a gentle facial expression. She reached her hand to shake Jean's.

What other people said was true. Selena was kind to everyone. Even though she was a super star, she didn't act arrogantly.

"Jean is my apprentice. She is a very talented photographer. Would you mind if she assists me in the photo shoot today?" Sonny politely asked Selena.

Selena looked at Jean from head to toe. She smiled gently and said, "No problem. I believe that the apprentice you personally brought here is absolutely excellent."

Jean still kept smiling. Then, a thought suddenly crossed her mind. She remembered that Maranda liked Selena so much. 'Should I take this opportunity and ask Selena for an autograph?' While she was thinking about it, Jean suddenly heard a familiar voice and turned stiff for a few seconds. She turned her head and looked at the man who was speaking.

"You have arrived early today."

Ethan looked like he had just finished running. He was wearing a casual suit that day. His suit made him look extraordinarily handsome and bright; he looked different from his usual calm look. The sun was shining brightly that time and Ethan looked so stunning under the sun. There was a man wearing a suit behind him. He seemed to be Ethan's assistant.

'What is Ethan doing there?'

Jean didn't know what was really happening. Did Ethan go there to replace her? But not everyone could casually enter the film studio though.

"Mr. Lei, you look much younger than before. It seems like you've recently allured thousands of girls, didn't you?" Selena Miao, who stood behind Jean, jokingly said to Ethan.

"Selena, how can you say so? I have changed. I'm a good man now. And there are no beautiful girls around me." Before he said his last sentence, Ethan paused and thoughtfully looked at Jean. Ethan and Sonny were good friends. Sonny smiled when he saw Ethan and said, "Miss Miao was talking about you while we had our dinner yesterday. I didn't expect that you would come here today." "Am I not welcome here, Sonny?" Ethan asked jokingly.

"Of course not."

Jean stepped back and stood aside. She looked away and avoided to look at Ethan.

"Hey, Mr. Lei, glad to see you here." A man who wore eye glasses with a thermal mug in his hand walked towards Ethan. He handed the mug to Selena, smiled, and said, "Mr. Lei, I knew you were so busy. I thought you won't be able to come here. I didn't expect that you made such effort to come here at the film studio personally. It seems that Selena is really important to you. You two indeed have a close relationship."

The man who gave the thermal mug to Selena was Selena's assistant. After she heard what the man said, Jean realized that Ethan went there for business.

Moreover, Selena's assistant called Ethan as Mr. Lei. Most likely, they were having a cooperation.

They made a few conventional remarks to each other. Jean felt uncomfortable standing there. She noticed that John was having a phone call. Jean thought of using John and slipping away.

However, before she could get her idea done, Ethan already paid attention at her.

"Jean, did you sleep well last night?" Ethan said gently. He sounded like he really cared for her.

Selena and her assistant were stunned for a while after they heard Ethan called Jean. They wondered why Ethan greeted Sonny's unimportant assistant. How could Ethan even know such an insignificant person? Besides that, it seemed that Ethan and Sonny's assistant were having a close relationship.

Though Jean was introduced as Sonny's apprentice, Jean was dressed like an unimportant assistant who just did minor things in their eyes.

John looked more like an excellent apprentice of a famous master.

"Hmmm... Not bad." She smiled stiffly and looked at Sonny. "Sonny, our photo shoot may begin anytime soon. Can I go to the studio and check if everything is ready?"

"Sure. You can." Sonny nodded. He certainly figured that Jean and Ethan treated each other awkwardly. He knew that Jean just wanted to leave there to excuse herself. Sonny understood them well and smiled.

Jean ran towards the studio after she got Sonny's permission. She was like a bird that was liberated after being trapped in a cage for a long time

Ethan's eyes slightly turned dim after he saw Jean leaving quickly.

"Mr. Lei, do you... happen to know Sonny's apprentice?" Selena curiously asked.

Ethan raised his head. He turned calm again, yet his face looked a bit rude. Then he directly answered Selena's question and said, "She's my ex-girlfriend. But now, she always tries to get away from me every time she sees me. Do I look so frightening? What do you think?"

Selena and her assistant were shocked after they heard what Ethan said. Selena's facial expression turned a bit sour. Then she surprisingly asked, "Ex-girlfriend?" She could hardly believe it. She didn't expect that the ex-girlfriend of Lei Group's general manager was just an ordinary woman.

Moreover, it seemed that Ethan thought about Jean constantly.

Selena felt a bit angry all of a sudden. She thought that such an ordinary woman was a misfit for Ethan. The woman that should be by his side should be a charming woman like her.

Selena's assistant was also disappointed. The Lei Group had been a well-known company. It was even part of the top ten companies that year. He invited Ethan to go to the film studio because he intended to pair him to Selena.

Unexpectedly, Ethan's ex-girlfriend disrupted his plan. He was worried that Ethan may not pay the sponsorship fees for the next quarter. Jean was quite ordinary. She was nothing compared to Selena.

Meanwhile, Jean was walking around the studio. Everything was all set up. They could start the photo shoot after they put make-up on Selena. Jean felt bored after she had done all her job. However, she couldn't go out.

What if she go out and meet Ethan again? It was quite embarrassing for her to talk with Ethan in front of many people.

"Why are you alone here? What are you thinking about?"00000000
