NovelEnglishChapter 94 A person's success would not be accidental. Take Xander, for example. In the eyes of the media, he was a n uninhibited man, which gave others the impression that he was careless and had a lack of purpose in life. No one knew that behind closed doors, he was actually a hardworking and considerate man.
I did not speak more and took the initiative to sit at the farthest end of the sofa. Scripts were supposed to be kept confidential, so I avoided looking at them.
Xander stood up and stretched himself before lying on the couch in exhaustion.
"Why don't you go and have srest first? I'll call you when the director is here." I could not bear seeing him like this.

"What if the director and crew arrive?" Xander had mentioned that they were taking the flight at night so they must be arriving any tsoon.
"They have things to do today so they'll only cover tomorrow. We'll go and have fun tonight before starting work tomorrow." "Xander!" I used the magazine in my hand to hit him i n anger. This brat! It turned out that he had deceivedto cover one day earlier.
"I'm so tired. I'll take a nap. I haven't slept in 24 hours and can't hold on anymore." Having said that, he picked up the cushion on the sofa and covered his head.
I knew that he was avoidingon purpose so I chose to ignore him. Things had already happened anyway, and getting mad was not going to help with my current predicament.
Just as I was feeling bored, Cecilia texted me: [My dear, I'm ready to go home. Do you want any presents? I'll bring them hfor you.] [No, I'm on a business trip in the South Sea at the moment. We can go shopping together when I get back.] I had no particular request in terms of materialistic things, nor did I clamor after foreign products as much as others. [You're in the South Sea? I'll take a flight there, then. We can go back together after that. Sendthe location. ] Cecilia wanted to cover as soon as she heard that I was in the South Sea.
I had just sent her my location when I received a call from Mason.
"Where are you?" His voice was indifferent as ever.
"On a business trip! Didn't I tell you?" I answered, finding his question ridiculous.
Mason sighed before continuing, "I know you're on a business trip. Which hotel are you at? I'm going to the South Sea tomorrow. Let's meet up for lunch." It turned out he just wanted to have lunch together. I breathed a sigh of relief and told him my hotel's address. I hung up the call after agreeing to meet him tomorrow.

I initially wanted to take a shower in another room, but I could not find the room card no matter what.
Seeing that Xavier was in a deep sleep, I went straight into the room.
He was sleeping anyway. Plus, with the doors in between and the locks, it was not going to be too awkward.
I felt relaxed after the shower and much more refreshed. I blew dry my hair, and when I walked out after changing my clothes, I saw Xander talking on the phone with groggy eyes.
He spoke in a hoarse voice that sounded like he was still asleep. "She's in the bathroom. Call back later." Unsure what the other party said, he answered," Sleeping." It was only then did I realize he was holding my phone. Astonished, I rushed over but it was already too late. The call had already ended.
"Why did you answer my phone?" I snatched my phone and checked the call history. Sure enough, it was a call from Theo.
