When Campbell Butler handed her itinerary to Kemp Ross, the man’s forehead was throbbing with veins.
She refused the Ross Family’s high-priced endorsement but ran to play those small roles without even lines, preferring to take the risk of being banned and begging in front of others rather than begging him, just to show him that she has increased her backbone?
I thought she couldn’t hold on for two days, but she is still happy to do it, this damn woman, she thinks this will be able to get rid of?
Slapping the document on the desktop, the man’s cold eyes were filled with a strong sense of mockery and hostility.
Campbell Butler raised his eyes to look at the man covered with cold handsome face, deliberate a moment, careful to speak, “Ross total, these are actually only part, because too … Miss Barnes is young and beautiful, some roles …”
Glancing at the man’s suddenly darkened eyes, the second half of the sentence he did not go on, but there is no doubt that Miss Barnes, as an entertainer among the high-looking actress, now for the role to come, those restless directors will certainly not give up this opportunity.
Kemp Ross’s good-looking fingers rubbed the file, his tone unperturbed, unable to let people guess his emotions, “Go deal with it.”
Campbell Butler understood, nodded, and left without stopping.
In the cold-toned office, the man lowered his head and stared at the schedule again, half a minute later, his eyes moved slightly and fell on the phone next to him.
Five minutes later, the man put the phone into his pocket, pulled back the chair and stood up, buttoned his jacket at the last minute, and walked out with long, clean legs.
A female assistant at the door, who was about to come in to report something, was startled and said, “Mr. Ross, just now Ms. Gu called to say she wants to have dinner with you, should we arrange it now?”
“I’ll pass.”
A clean and clear voice rang out, and the man’s figure had already walked into the elevator.
Female assistant, “…”
Miss Gu is not the president’s fiancée?
How come every time you ask for dinner the president has to push? Than push those customers are still sharp.
…
In the evening, Phoebe Barnes, who was planning to go home after filming, suddenly received a phone call from Phoebe’s mother.
“Phoebe, Wren is missing.”
“…”
A blast exploded in the woman’s head and the phone slipped from her palm to the floor.
Wren was gone?
After a few seconds of regaining her senses, she turned tragically white, scrambled to pick up her phone, and said in a trembling voice, “Mom, Mom what the hell is going on? How could Ran be missing?”
“I, I don’t know what’s going on, I didn’t let her go out, just in the house … I didn’t go over to the kitchen to help a little, and then came out again and the person disappeared, as if she vanished into thin air.” Phoebe’s mother anxiously straight sobbing.
Disappeared in the house?
Phoebe Barnes was stunned and her heart sank hard, “No one could have gotten in, she must have run out on her own. Mom, go to security and check the surveillance, I’m going back now.”
Phoebe’s mother cried and said, “I went to check, the surveillance only shows her running out of the apartment building all the way to the outside of the neighborhood, and then there’s no more footage, Phoebe, where do you think she could have gone?”
All the way out of the neighborhood?
Phoebe Barnes’ nearly lost sanity finally sensed that something was wrong.
Did Jo Ran Ran run out of her own accord?
She was so well-behaved, she would always tell her when she left the house, so how could she sneak out alone?
She took a deep breath as she walked towards the curb to stop the car and asked in a deep voice, “Mom, is she wearing her watch?”
“A watch?”
“Yes, it’s the watch she usually wears on her wrist, look for it.”
There was silence for a moment, and then came the exclaimed voice of Mrs. Liu, “I found it, it’s here, she’s not wearing it.”
Phoebe Barnes got into the cab and said urgently into her cell phone, “Mom, have Sister-in-law Liu check the call records on it and report the last phone number that called to me.”
“Ohhh … okay, okay.”
Waiting for Phoebe’s mother to report the number to her, listening to the somewhat familiar string of numbers, Phoebe Barnes heart of worry instantly turned into a bearish anger.
Sure enough, it was him!
Clenching her fists, she held back and said soothingly, “Mom, I know where she is, she’s fine, don’t worry, I’ll bring her back later.”
Phoebe’s mother remained anxious, “Will it be dangerous, Phoebe, should we call the police?”
“No need to call the police, I know where she is, mom, I’ll contact you later.”
Hanging up the phone, she grimaced, her fingers nimbly tapped a series of numbers and dialed out.
After a dozen seconds of ringing, a cheerful child’s voice came from the other side, “cherry.”
The anger Phoebe Barnes was just about to exhale was held back by her, but the urgency was gone from her voice, only the suppressed anger, knowing it had nothing to do with her, she went straight to the man, “Give him the phone.”
Two seconds later came the familiar voice of a man, low and lazy, “You wanted me?”
Phoebe Barnes took a breath when she heard his voice and couldn’t hold it any longer, almost gritting her teeth to squeeze out the words, “Kemp Ross, you bastard!”
The man laughed softly, “Did I piss you off again?”
“Do you have any shame? What did you promise me in the first place, you said you’d stop pestering me.”
In contrast to her frenzy and fury, the man remained calm, and his tone was quite innocent, “I did say I would not pester you again, but did I not tell you that I liked the child, she was injured, I had to see her, you would not let me go to your place, I had to let her come to my place.”
Phoebe Barnes snorted coldly, “You think I’d believe your bullshit? Playing word games with me, Kemp Ross, could you be any more childish?”
The man spoke out coolly, “You believe Ann Shi and John Lu, you don’t believe me when I say I like her, so you can’t deny it when I say she likes me, can you?”
“…”
Phoebe Barnes sank her breath for a moment, not wanting to continue to talk nonsense with him, and asked directly, “Give me the address.”
“Do I need to tell you about such a familiar place?”
The man dropped the words and hung up the phone.
“Hey, hey …”
Phoebe Barnes put down the phone in anger, her shellfish teeth biting her lower lip with a deadly grip.
Her eyes looked out the car window, she slowly recalled his words just now, half a long time, her eyes flickered slightly, and gave an address to the driver.
An hour later, the car stopped at the entrance of an extremely magnificent and gorgeous building area.
The security guard saw her Zhijie froze, opened his mouth and stammered, not knowing what to call it, “too, too …”
“Let me in.”
The security guard came back to his senses, and hurriedly opened the door in shock and panic.
He didn’t even slow down until Phoebe Barnes hurried in.
My God, he, what did he see?
That was Mrs.?
Except that the hair had changed from the previous long hair to short hair, the face, it was like yesterday.
Since the wife left three years ago, no woman had ever entered or left here except for Chen Ma, and even that Miss Gu was stopped at the door by Mr. for various reasons every time she wanted to come in.
Not only was she surprised, but Chen Ma in the villa almost cried out when she saw her.
“Too … Miss Barnes, you … what brings you here?”
Phoebe Barnes nodded to her with a complicated face, and her full anger was half extinguished after stepping into this familiar place.
Kemp Ross, what was he up to?
Was he putting all this in front of her to humiliate her?
She tugged her lips gently and spoke in a low voice, “Your husband brought a child back, where are they now?”
