Leslie Howard’s words were completely unbelievable to Winona Wallace.
She knew Leslie was doing it on purpose, deliberately provoking her, wanting to make her angry and lose her calm, tarnishing her noble and graceful image in front of outsiders.
Winona Wallace would not be fooled!
Even though the sharp pain in her left ankle intensified, Winona Wallace continued to stand on her right foot, standing straight.
She lifted her chin slightly, looking at Leslie Howard with a disdainful gaze: "I, don’t, believe it. Leslie Howard, don’t think that just because David Redington spoke up for you impartially earlier, you can be smug. Compared to your notorious reputation, my own reputation is far better. Since David Redington is willing to collaborate with soone like you, there’s no reason he wouldn’t film a kissing scene with ."
Indeed, after saying these words, Winona Wallace felt even more composed.
David Redington was willing to work with soone like Leslie, and their characters were supposed to be a couple according to the script. There’s no way David would refuse to film a kissing scene with her.
With this in mind, Winona Wallace felt even more reassured.
The anger incited by Leslie Howard’s provocation gradually faded away.
Winona Wallace lightly curled her lips, and her gentle and elegant smile returned to her face.
"Fine, then let’s just wait and see." Winona Wallace remained calm, and Leslie Howard also showed no sign of panic.
She nodded slightly, her smile several tis more enchantingly charming than Winona’s so-called elegance and grace: "Take your ti to recover from your injury, I need to go and prepare. After all, I’m going to be filming a kissing scene with Ms. Redington, just now in the lounge we had a taste of it... hmm, Ms. Redington kisses really well."
Having said that, Leslie Howard walked away gracefully.
And Winona Wallace, left where she was by Leslie, watched her graceful figure head towards David Redington, almost angrily breaking her manicured nails.
...
On the other side, Leslie Howard walked into the real set office.
She and David Redington took their positions, waiting for Director Henson to get the lights and sound ready before they could start filming.
Leslie Howard leaned lightly on the office desk, raising her eyebrows at the man standing behind it.
She said flippantly, "I didn’t expect you to speak up for just now... But next ti, could you give a hint in advance if Ms. Redington plans to help soone? If I weren’t smart enough to deflect the topic to acting, I might have been trampled by Ms. Redington’s fans."
The aning of Leslie’s words was clear enough.
David Redington openly admitted their kissing in the lounge.
If Leslie hadn’t intentionally led the topic to acting, coupled with David Redington’s reputation for being self-disciplined, uninterested in won, and strictly business-oriented.
It’s likely by now that the gossip about the out-of-fashion actress Leslie Howard seducing the movie star David Redington, offering herself, would have spread wildly online.
Upon hearing the woman’s words, David Redington’s deep, cold blue eyes slightly flickered: "You’re unwilling to make our relationship public?"
At that mont, it wasn’t a impulsive decision.
Since Leslie Howard left last night, he knew this woman was poison, a toxic allure he should stay away from.
Yet the more he knew, the harder it was to take his eyes off her.
Just like before, although he originally intended to discuss the scene with her in the lounge, as soon as he stepped through that door, all he wanted was to kiss her fiercely and take possession of her.
"Publicize our relationship? Ha—" Leslie Howard laughed as if she heard sothing amusing.
Her alluring eyes curved as she laughed, and there seed to be tiny shimring stars in her beautiful, almond-shaped eyes.
Yet the words that ca out of her mouth were chillingly indifferent.
"Does Ms. Redington misunderstand sothing? We’re just colleagues on the sa production, at best a senior-junior relationship. If you insist on making it a big deal, it’s nothing more than a fling."
