Marry A Hidden Billionaire By Rosalind Stevenson

Chapter 340

Bruce extinguished the cigarette in his hand and stared at Alice with a complex expression. After a

moment, he spoke,

“Is this the person you’ve married? The CEO from the Kaur family?”

Alice was unsure if he had overheard her conversation with Daniel, but she did not hide the truth since

he asked.

“Yes, he’s my husband. I’d appreciate it if you wouldn’t tell anyone… We haven’t decided to make it

public yet.”

Bruce clenched his fists and gazed at Alice in silence. “I’m not that idle to go around revealing people’s

private matters. It’s just that… Alice, do you know the disparity between you and him?”

In truth, he was not even sure how to describe his current feelings.

If it were anyone else with Daniel, he would have offered his blessings.

But Alice-thinking of Alice -made it genuinely hard for him to utter the word ‘blessings.

Even deep within, an inner voice wished Daniel and her feelings were delicate, hoping for an

immediate breakup.

He honestly could not accept that she had married and to Daniel.

He knew that his emotional state was terrible.

No woman had ever put him in such a terrible mood. He hoped it was not because he was attracted to

Alice.

He thought it probably was an infatuation.

It’s just that, as a senior, he did not want to witness young women in the industry getting hurt.

Yes, that should be the case.

Alice had no idea about the extent of Bruce’s emotional turmoil. She calmly said, “Bruce, what does it

matter if there’s a gap between him and me? He unwaveringly chose me. Isn’t that enough?”

Although she said that, Alice knew very well that there was a vast difference between her and Daniel.

Given her current status, she could not be by his side, radiating brilliance and moving forward at his

pace.

“Uhm, Alice, you’re not the type of person willing to be a parasite… I believe you’ll come to understand

and make the right choice,” Bruce eventually voiced his inner thoughts.

In truth, he had always understood Alice.

He did not want to admit it.

Alice let out a bitter smile. “Bruce, do you even know what the right choice is? You might not even be

capable of making good choices in your own life, so how can you expect me to make the right choice?”

Bruce gritted his teeth. “How do you know I haven’t made good choices? My current life is far from

being carefree and pleasant.”

At this point, he fixed his gaze on Alice. “Alice, I’m a man… I can tell you clearly that no man will

genuinely like a woman who is significantly inferior to him.”

“This society is highly pragmatic, and men are even more so! If you were on the same footing regarding

your family background, your love might last about three years. However, with the current disparity

between you two, he’d probably love you for a maximum of one year!”

“You’re very clear-headed when you’re messing with me. When dealing with someone like him… I hope

you’r rational. Otherwise, you’ll end up with nothing, and the spectacle will amuse me!”

Alice would have slapped him if she did not know that he was actually expressing concern in this

manner, leaving him speechless.

She raised an eyebrow and smiled. “No need for your reminders. I’m aware of these things.”

The gap between her and Daniel went beyond just their family backgrounds; it was also influenced by

what she had experienced.

She had not discussed it with Daniel because she did not know how to broach the subject.

Moreover, no man could accept that his woman had been raped and had experienced three stillbirths.

After Alice and Bruce left, the director had already begun to arrange the set.

Alan had already informed them that Daniel would be filming a kissing scene with Alice.

The director had anticipated that Daniel might have some unique approach, but he never expected that

Daniel would personally take the initiative.

He had no objections as long as he did not upset the bigwigs.

When Bruce emerged, his gaze met Daniel’s, and his expression became even more intricate.

Between the two men, it was as if they had a unique way of communicating.

In any case, Bruce’s feelings were far from at ease during the actual filming.

Bruce finally got into the groove after three consecutive takes, resulting in NG (No Good).

“Director, I promise this is the last time we can proceed!” Bruce glanced at Alice and then said to the

director.

The director was annoyed with his repeated NGs and waved his hand, somewhat exasperated. “Fine,

then, this is the last attempt.”

So, they started the scene again.

However, as Alice walked over this time, her foot landed on a small piece of glass on the ground.

Not wanting to disrupt the filming, she endured the discomfort and acted as if nothing had happened.

She maintained the same rhythm and approached Bruce.

She simply used her other leg to h ook around Bruce’s body.

With a charming smile, she grabbed Bruce’s collar and whispered, “Sir, do you know what I want to do

right now?” Bruce was fully immersed in the moment, embracing her waist as they moved towards the

spot adorned with petals. However, just as they were about to fall, Bruce noticed the red color on

Alice’s feet.

He wanted to say something but saw that Alice’s smile had become even more captivating.

He immediately understood that Alice did not want to delay the filming further and intentionally endured

the discomfort. Frustrated, he clenched his teeth. This woman was practically out of her mind.

It was just a movie scene. Why go to such lengths?

He would expedite it if she cared so much about it.

Daniel also noticed something was off with Alice, but he could not get close to her.

Finally, when the director spoke, he swiftly positioned himself in front of Alice.

Then, he anxiously crouched down and gripped Alice’s ankle.

Daniel’s expression immediately darkened as he noticed the blood on the woman’s pristine white foot.

“What happened?”

Alice instinctively attempted to pull her foot back, but the man held onto her ankle and said nervously,

“Let’s go to the hospital.”

Alice hurriedly shook her head. “Let’s finish shooting this scene. The injury isn’t serious, and I can bear

with it.”

Daniel’s expression hardened. “No.”

Seeing his resolute demeanor, Alice felt torn. She blinked and softly pleaded, “It doesn’t hurt that much.

Can we please finish shooting first?”

If they went to the hospital now, judging by how concerned Daniel appeared, this advertisement shoot

would be postponed for at least a week.

She did not want Brian to perceive her as overly delicate and risk losing the advertisement.

Hence, she held Daniel’s hand, giving it a gentle shake and speaking softly,

“Honey, can you please help me finish filming first?”

Daniel remained silent, his lack of response indicating his disagreement.

Alice lowered her voice once more. “Darling, my dear husband…. Can you help me finish filming first? I

promise, once it’s done, I’ll obediently go to the hospital with you.”

How could Daniel endure Alice’s use of “husband”? Eventually, he nodded. “Alright, we’ll go to the

hospital immediately after we finish filming!”

“Thank you, hubby!” Alice smiled.

Daniel could only relent without any further response.

In the end, he found himself lost amidst the repeated calls of endearment.
