Chapter 1010 Accidentally Hurt Him
Confused, Sean spun around and queried, “Mrs. Larson, what are you trying to say?”
In a mild grin, Jsaid, “Tonight is all about Estella. You should have a good twith her. Please don’t letbe the reason
you hurt her feelings. In addition, it won’t help even if you tell Estella. There would only be one more person worried sick about
me.”
“But...” Sean hesitated.
It was around this twhen Estella walked to them. With a sly smile, she grasped Sean’s arm and added, “You ignored my
several attempts to reach you. The host requests a group photograph.”
Estella grinned and pulled Jalong. “Hurry up! You have to be there!”
“If I go with you, Mesue won’t findwhen she comes back,” Jsaid, pinching Estella’s cheek affectionately. “You’re the star
of the show tonight. Take Sean and get slovely pictures. Letbe. Remember not to drink too much.”
Estella pouted and replied, “Okay, be careful on your way back.”
Giving Sean a gentle push, Jsmiled and said, “Go with Estella. She’s all yours from now on.”
After Sean and Estella left, Jglanced at the clock on the wall.
Mesue had been out getting the car for a while. Why wasn’t she there yet?
However, before she reached the door, she felt like someone was following her.
When Jlooked back, she didn’t see anything suspicious, but that strange feeling persisted. The image of being watched
popped into her mind again.
Jwas convinced that there must be someone behind her!
She’d been carrying a portable taser around ever since the last tshe was involved in an accident. She stealthily reached into
her bag. As soon as the person behind her got close to her, she immediately activated the taser and swung it at the person
approaching her from behind.
“Ah! Hey! Do you want to killwith that thing?” With a shriek and a moan, Jspun around and saw Derek lying on the
ground, clutching his belly.
“Why the hell are you here?” Surprised, Jput away the taser and squatted down to assist Derek. “I’m sorry.” “Hey, I asked
you to cstraight to her and greet her directly, but you said that you wanted to give her a surprise.” Wilder was also alarmed.
He and Jhelped Derek to a corner of the banquet hall.
Derek covered his belly and wailed, “My innards are in so much pain. Am I going to kick the bucket?”
Jalso got anxious. “Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill. My mini taser isn’t that powerful. Hang in there. I’ll call the
doctor.”
“There’s no need. Just press it with your hand. That will do it.” Derek placed Janet’s hand on his belly and continued to cry out in
pain.
massage then!”
She pinched Derek’s stomach firmly.
“Ouch! Janet! You!” Derek was outraged but he didn’t dare to say anything. Realizing that his little trick had been uncovered, he
composed himself and straightened out his suit. “Are you smelling a rat? You even brought a taser with you! If I had been
snapped by my fans when I stumbled just now and it trended on the top search, you would be the one taking the heat!”
Sitting beside Derek, Jfelt a bit guilty. “I thought someone was approachingon purpose just now, so I defended myself
subconsciously. I didn’t expect you to be here.”
Wilder stood in front of the two and said with a smile, “Don’t get him wrong, Mrs. Larson. Derek is here for the activity. Many film
and television companies want to invite him to film his first TV series after he transformed to an actor from a model, so he had
been socializing just now and hadn’t cto greet you.”
Derek glared at Wilder unhappily. He grabbed a strawberry from the table and popped it into his mouth. “It’s all because you’ve
been pushingto mingle with those female bosses. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have to wait until now.”
Just a moment ago, Derek saw that Jwas about to leave, so he cto her after dealing with those old biddies.
With a look of disappointment, Wilder pointed at Derek with his quivering hands and said, “You brat, don’t you know how good I
am to you? You are on the verge of
transforming your career, so you have to interact with more producers. They are all producers of hit domestic TV series. If you
play ball with them, you can secure your reputation, which will be a feather in your cap in the future.”
“Why are you always yammering like an old crow?” Holding his chin, Derek began to bicker with Wilder.
However, Jwas thinking about something else.
Derek must have seen her going at it with Kathie and wanted to help, but he was dragged away by Wilder all the time. Was this
the root of her illusion that she had been under someone’s eye?
