the two-faced Adopted Girl Who Melted CEO's Ice-Cold Heart Chapter 813: Rejected Advances

Ignatius Leclair’s attempts at romance were rejected, and for two consecutive days, he maintained a sullen face. Even Nicholas and Benjamin knew that Daddy’s mood was terrible lately and better not to provoke him.

After Delphine made things clear with him, she no longer stayed out late and tried to co ho earlier.

The film shooting was tough, but the progress was consistently good. The only frustrating part was Jocelyn Yeager continued to show up at the set every day, rain or shine.

As he was part of the investnt group, they couldn’t chase him off. Especially since Jocelyn Yeager brought exquisite afternoon tea or late-night snacks, which made the entire crew treat him as a valued patron.

"Director Carter, Mr. Reginald Yeager is here again." Chloe Winston took the chance during a break in explaining a scene to lightly poke her and whispered, "I told Constantine Stewart that Reginald Yeager is pursuing , and Constantine’s face turned blue. Maybe they’ll clash in a few days."

Chloe smiled smugly like a little hamster; this move not only diverted Constantine Stewart’s attention from her but also dealt with Reginald Yeager for the director. She was really too clever.

Delphine gave her a grateful smile. Thankfully, Chloe was the protective shield; otherwise, their scandal from years ago might resurface for a renewed buzz.

"I think Brother-in-law is better. I don’t like this Reginald Yeager," Chloe said quietly, then her expression changed abruptly; she darted beside Delphine and whispered, "That old man Constantine Stewart is here too."

On the cruise, the refined and jade-like Mr. Stewart scanned the set’s filming scene. Seeing Chloe hiding behind Delphine with her head down like an ostrich, he sneered, fool, Delphine Carter is so skinny, can she really shield you?

"Is Reginald Yeager here to visit?" Constantine Stewart felt relieved upon seeing his young wife, then coldly looked over at Jocelyn Yeager.

Jocelyn Yeager knew a bit about Constantine Stewart — a businessman who had been doing well in the Imperial City for the past few years reportedly had quite a connection with the Shaw Family.

A while back, when he instigated the aristocratic families to jointly oppose the Leclair Family, he even tried reaching out through contacts to Constantine Stewart, but was rejected.

Since they couldn’t be friends, naturally they’d be enemies.

Jocelyn Yeager nodded, smiling gently: "I’m an investor checking the film’s progress. Mr. Stewart, are you here to visit?"

"Reginald Yeager has a vast amount of assets, and yet personally oversees a movie with only a billion-dollar investnt? Who would believe it?" Constantine Stewart sneered, though he didn’t trust Chloe’s words, yet his young wife indeed was young and pretty — lively and bold. With Jocelyn Yeager visiting every day, he couldn’t help but feel he was at a disadvantage.

"Staring all day at a woman that’s not yours, might Reginald Yeager have a peculiar taste?" Constantine Stewart mockingly sneered.

Jocelyn Yeager’s smile faded, and he said faintly: "Your little lady, she’s lively, always chatting and smiling at every ti I visit. Recently, there’s even a rumor I’m pursuing her. However, I’m not interested in children. Mr. Stewart, please mind your woman to not randomly smile at strange n. While I can still count myself as a gentleman, it might differ with other n."

These remarks not only sowed discord between Constantine Stewart and his wife, suggesting Chloe was seducing him, but also insinuated that Stewart had a pedophile inclination.

Constantine Stewart’s face turned various shades of blue and white — the grudge was thus settled.

"Mr. Yeager, Mr. Stewart, Director Carter said that both of you are prestigious individuals. With your daily appearances, the actors are distracted from filming. So, from today onwards, it’s closed set shooting. Casual visitors are not allowed on the cruise; we hope you understand." Kyla Zamora approached with a smile, gesturing politely for the two to leave the cruise.

Jocelyn Yeager and Constantine Stewart exchanged a glance, snorted coldly, and stepped off the cruise.
