Chapter 2606
However, it seemed like fate did not want to let Chester release Eliza.
Eliza sighed. She had set up a scheme for Chester, yet he used her as a
shield.
It was too ridiculous.
Eliza waited at the office for an hour.
Chester entered from the outside. He was in a pair of black slacks and a
white shirt. His shoulders were wide, and he had long legs. His aura was
outstanding. His sleeves were rolled up, revealing the smooth lines of
muscles on his arms.
After the door closed, Chester sat on the office chair. His unrivaled,
handsome face was slightly raised. His eyes behind the lenses looked at
Eliza indifferently.
“What’s the matter?”
‘What’s the matter?’
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtEliza thought in her heart. Those were the funniest words she had ever heard.
Although she had always been calm, she could not control her body from trembling at that moment.
“My name is tarnished. All of the advertisers and film directors are calling me and scolding me, wanting to
terminate their contracts with me. I’m now detested by everyone. Don’t you know all of this?”
Eliza did not want to endure it anymore. She grabbed a vase from the decorative shelf and was about to smash it
on the floor angrily.
Chester suddenly reminded her softly, “ The vase in your hand is three million dollars. Smash it if you dare.”
Eliza’s hand stiffened.
A vase that was three million dollars was nothing to her.
However, it was a huge sum to the Eliza that Chester knew.
Amid the tension, Eliza gritted her teeth and placed the vase back. Then, she rushed to Chester’s side with
reddened eyes. “You used me as a shield for the company without a word. Don’t you think you need to give me an
explanation? Chester, even if you don’t like me and even though I might not be as important as Cindy, I’m also
human. I made so much profit for the company, yet you ruined me so easily.
What do you take me for?”
When she placed the vase back timidly, Chester had started to look down on her.
At that point, he was too lazy to fight with her. He took a card from the drawer right away and threw it on the table.
“There’s 100 million dollars in it. It’s your compensation.”
Eliza widened her eyes. She was a professional actress, after all. Hence, her expression looked as if that card was a
humiliation. “I can generate a profit of a few hundred million for the company every year. You’ve ruined my acting
career in the entertainment industry forever, and now you’re dismissing me with just 100 million dollars. Do you
think I’m a beggar?”
“A beggar?” Chester laughed sarcastically. “Can a beggar have so much
money? stop dreaming.”
Eliza’s face twisted in anger. “My worth isn’t just 100 million dollars. I don’t
need money. I just want a promising future.”
“I can’t do that.” Chester looked at her with a gaze full of disdain. “The fact
that you’ve been with Monte is the truth. You can only blame yourself for
being promiscuous. Moreover, I think it’s good enough that you’re worth
100 million dollars. The entertainment industry is ever -changing. It’s true
that you’re popular this year, but what about next year and the year after
that? Even a small scandal can ruin a celebrity, not to mention that your
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmrelationship with Monte is a scandal that’s cast in stone.
“If it weren’t for the company exposing it to divert attention, no one
would’ve found out about it.” Eliza glared at Chester. “ Besides, setting
aside my contract with the company, I’m still your woman. Chester, you’re
too cruel to me. You’re really too cruel.”
The tears in her eyes flowed out.
Chester gazed at that pair of eyes. In the past, he thought Eliza looked
similar to Charity when she was cold. However, he realized that they did
not look alike at all after looking closely.
He stood up irritatedly. “How are you even my woman? I was simply
satisfying my needs.”
Eliza widened her eyes and glared at Chester. “You’re too shameless. You
shouldn’t have forced me by using other people as a threat back then.”
“So what if I forced you? Didn’t you feel good when you were in my bed?”
Chester opened a box of cigarettes. He took a cigarette between his fingers
and pointed it at her.
