"Pfft..."
The rice spurted out of her mouth.
Jane Sullivan hurriedly grabbed a tissue, ran over to Ken to wipe it off, "I"m sorry Director Liang, I didn"t mean it."
Ken threw away his cigarette, took a deep breath, letting the young girl wipe it off for him, leaning close, he could see the kiss marks on her neck...
He remembered passing by the other island, seeing her helpless hand waving, crying out, "Please take me with you, I can do any hard work."
At that time, his mind flashed to another woman kneeling in front of his camera, "I can wash dishes, cook, as long as I can be a small supporting role, I really can do any hard work."
Perhaps because their gazes were too similar, the first time Ken saw Jane Sullivan, he couldn"t help wanting to assist her.
Later, knowing she was Ethan"s woman, he thought to avoid trouble by not getting involved, but fate seemed to create opportunities for them to meet.
"Jane Sullivan, I can see that the photos circulating online are real, so don"t try to deceive me here. Only if you tell me the truth can I help you."
He pulled up a chair and sat down, closing the door, scrutinizing Jane Sullivan, "Tell me, why did Ethan bring you to the other island, do you really have an affair with Justin?"
Knowing she had to stay on this cruise ship, she could only be honest with Ken.
Jane Sullivan sat back down, her lips quivering slightly, she nodded, "Alright, I"ll tell."
In over ten minutes, Jane Sullivan told Ken everything about what had happened, except for the fact that she had sex with Ethan the previous night.
Regarding the photo of her kissing Justin, she said it was to get divorced from Ethan sooner, and that was why she asked Justin to help her.
There was no romantic relationship between them.
"I just want to live quietly as myself, but I didn"t expect to be photographed by someone with an agenda. The situation blew up so much that I might not be able to go back to Beicheng. So, after reporting to my family that I was safe, I threw my phone by the seaside. The only thought I had was to find a place where no one knows me and start over," Jane Sullivan said with a smile, showing no sign of sadness.
"I am still young, and I cannot let such a setback drive me to seek death. If I died, it would only make those who want to see me fail happy. So I must live strongly, for myself and for all who care about and love me."
"Yeah, that"s the smart way to think. I, your brother, can"t stand seeing people seeking death over small issues," Ken said.
After speaking, Ken glanced at his watch and then out the window. It was snowing, indicating that they could start shooting.
"You rest today and start work formally tomorrow. Once I finish filming this movie, which will take about half a month, I"ll send you back when things calm down in Beicheng," Ken said.
Jane Sullivan nodded, "Thank you, Director Liang."
Ken scoffed dismissively, turned the doorknob, and smiled back at her, "No need to thank me. I"m helping you for my own reasons, because I enjoy seeing Ethan helpless and furious. The more angry he gets, the happier I am. So, our arrangement is mutually beneficial."
"Girl, you did the right thing leaving Ethan. He"s the kind who devours without spitting out the bones. And Justin, you might consider him; he"s a man of deep feelings. Think it over and grab the opportunity," Ken added.
...
Clearly, Ken knew Ethan and Justin well enough to understand their characters so distinctly.
However, since Ken didn't offer any details about their relationships, Jane Sullivan didn"t ask.
She was afraid of being kicked out.
...
A week later.
Someone leaked the news of Jane Sullivan being on the cruise. Before dawn, the door to her bedroom was kicked open.
The sleepy girl was violently pulled out of bed by a man who yelled, "How could you still be sleeping with such a guilty conscience!"
That voice!
Jane Sullivan opened her eyes to see Ethan's furious face, which scared her to trembling.
"Now you"re scared? Isn"t it a bit late?"
He really wanted to crack open her little head to see what was inside!
Ethan dragged her into a helicopter. Benjamin, realizing that they had indeed found her on this cruise, looked even more troubled.
What a cursed fate!
How does the little rabbit always manage to provoke those she shouldn"t?
As the cabin door closed, Ken, wearing a robe, appeared on the deck. Before he could speak, Benjamin hurriedly commanded the pilot to take off.
"Hurry up, don"t dawdle!"
If these two men met again, it would be like a volcanic eruption!
Ken rubbed his eyes, watching the helicopter take off, a scornful smile on his lips. He had only released the news last night, and Ethan had already come to take her back so quickly. This showed how important Jane Sullivan was to him.
Lighting a cigarette and taking a drag, his hair disheveled by the sea breeze, Ken laughed louder, "Interesting, very interesting."
"Thought you couldn"t love again?"
"In less than five years, you still couldn"t control your heart?"
