Kingsley’s voice was mild, “Yes!”
This emotionless answer immediately made Vivienne clenched her lips, “I don’t understand, can you explain it?”
“Explain?” Kingsley thought for a while, “Probably… someone provoked me!”
Vivienne’s breath condensed for a second.
“Miss Hall, we are only partners with mutual benefits, that’s all.” He was already warning her. He hadn’t gotten even with her the last time for arranging the paparazzi to stalk him and take photos of him.
Vivienne bit her lip tightly and said, “I know.”
After hanging up the phone, Vivienne took a deep breath. Her face was blue and red, filled with embarrassment. The assistant brought her a glass of water, and she knocked it over to the ground before the assistant handed it to her, “Go away, don’t bother me!”
The young assistant was startled, and squatted down quickly to pick up the mess and went out.
Sitting on the sofa, Vivienne could not help but sneer, someone provoked him?
Did he do it for Nora?
After Nora had her lunch silently, she ran upstairs to continue submitting her resumes.
She mainly applied for the architectural design institutes, but she didn’t have adequate internship experience, which was not good for her. But she had to try it anyway.
Nora felt really stupid. It seemed that Kingsley was upset by her words again. Now his temper was getting more unstable. He was not as positive and cheerful as he used to be.
In the evening, Jonathan called to ask her if she wanted to work as an extra again. There were still several crews that were short of extras, and the salaries were pretty good. Nora was moved for a while. But as soon as she thought of Kingsley’s warning, she shook her head and said she was not going anymore.
Jonathan kept silent for a while and said, “Your husband doesn’t like it?”
Both Karina and Jonathan knew she was married, but Jonathan didn’t know who she was married to. He only knew that her husband was a powerful and rich man.
“It’s just inconvenient, because I will have a full-time job soon!”
Jonathan didn’t say anything, and then he casually said, “Director Waterhouse has stopped shooting!”
“Director Waterhouse?”
“It’s the crew you went to yesterday!”
“Why?”
“I don’t know the specific reason. I heard that someone has provoked the sponsor!”
Nora thought for a while and wasn’t sure if it had anything to do with Kingsley. She didn’t want to overthink, so she just hung up the phone after a few quick perfunctory words.
On Monday, Nora received an interview notification from Destiny Architectural Design Company. Unexpectedly, the interview went smoothly this time. The HR read her resume and knew that she graduated from the Faculty of Architecture of University A. After discussing with the design director next to her, she immediately indicated that Nora would be hired.
Nora was a little dizzy. She wasn’t sure if it was real when they talked about her salary. It would be four thousand and five hundred during the probation period, and the number would be raised to six thousand after she became an official employee, with all the social insurance covered. She might also get a promotion every six months depending on her performance.
When she walked out of the company, the sky seemed so clear and Nora was in a good mood, so she quickly sent Karina a message: “Karina, I have found a job. Let’s go out to celebrate!”
“Okay, we can go to the Allure Restaurant when I have time.”
Nora was a little bit reluctant. After all the Allure Restaurant was really expensive. But in order to celebrate that she had a job, she agreed.
She felt bored when she took a bus home, so she surfed the Internet and suddenly saw a piece of gossip.
“Kingsley Baxter, the CEO of Rivertown Group, whose ex-lover was exposed. She was born in a famous family and they were childhood sweethearts.”
Nora was no stranger to this kind of news. Every day there were various gossips about Kingsley, but most of them were just subjective speculations, and there was no evidence. But Nora would read every article, and if the gossip was really outrageous, she would report it.
The ex-lover, childhood sweethearts?
Was it Rosaline Woods?
