Chapter 36 Argue
Chapter 36 Argue
"When did you come back?" Lemuel ignored Verena and asked Eden softly.
Eden smiled and explained, "I have been back for only a few days. And I have been working since I
came back. So I didn't have time to go home yet."
Cole, who stood beside, suddenly looked at Verena meaningfully, "Eden, who is she?"
"She is my new assistant. What's the matter?" Eden smiled.
Cole also smiled, "Eden, have you heard about the story of the evil stepmom of Snow White?"
"Snow White? You love to read fairy tales recently?" Eden didn't know what he meant. So he just
smiled to reply.
Cole shook his middle finger, "No, no, no! I am not talking about fairy tales but the stepmom of Snow
White in reality. Just guess if the so-called stepmom would play a different role? For example, perhaps
she would be a kind of mistress who conspires to take over a huge and prestigious family."
When hearing that, Verena, who was just lost in thought, suddenly collected herself. As she raised her
head, she happened to see the cold and disdainful eyes of Lemuel.
She couldn't help trembling again. All her limbs were rendered freezing cold. Though she was not the
culprit who set up what happened last night, she still didn't dare to look into his eyes.
She really wanted to just run away!
She had no courage to face such a chaos!
"Cole, what are you talking about?" Eden was quite confused by his meaningful words.
"Well, actually, I would like to say…" Cole prolonged his voice deliberately and fixed his eyes on
Verena. Then he continued, "Actually, the stepmom of Snow White also plays a role as…"
When hearing that, Verena couldn't help taking a deep breath and she pinched her thighs hard with
both hands out of nervousness. But she still tried to pretend to be calm.
Since Eden was their brother, he would know about her real identity sooner or later. It was just a matter
of time. As Cole wanted to tell him, just let it be.
However, a crew member came over and hurried to say, "Time to shoot!"
Hearing that, Eden nodded and looked at Lemuel with a smile, "Well, sorry for that. Lemuel, let me pay
you a feast tomorrow to make up for it."
Cole went between them and put his arm on Eden's shoulder while resting another on Lemuel's.
"Since Eden is going to pay for it, of course I will join in tomorrow!"
"Okay." Lemuel then said, "I have a meeting in the company later. I need to leave now."
"Lemuel…" Eden smiled and continued, "The road is covered by snow. Be careful." This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
"Lemuel, pick me up tonight, okay? I want a ride!" Cole smiled fawningly.
"I am busy!" Lemuel huffed coldly and then turned around to glance at Verena through the corner of his
eyes. Then he strode out of the shooting site.
Both Eden and Cold walked forward together shoulder to shoulder. Verena sighed a breath of relief and
followed them behind. She could clearly hear the conversation between them.
"Why did Lemuel send you to the shooting site in person?"
"That is because I am so charming!" Cole smiled and sometimes glanced at Verena, who followed
behind with her head down.
Eden looked at him, speechless, "Stop kidding…"
"The old man suddenly asked me to live in Lemuel's mansion last night! When Lemuel went back to get
some files this morning, he happened to meet me. And we heard that you had been back. He wanted
to meet you. So he gave me a ride. Do you think Lemuel would be so kind to me that he would send
me here in person? Don't be kidding!"
"Alright, the shooting is about to start. Get yourself changed."
"Okay, see you then. Well, see you again, stepmom of Snow White!" Cole waved at them giddily and
followed his assistant to the dressing room.
Eden looked at his frivolous smile and then smiled at Verena, "Sorry, Cole has been a flippant boy.
Please don't mind it if he offends you."
Verena shook her head, "Of course not."
She knew about the personality of Cole quite well.
The shooting was soon started.
Today, Cole was serving as a model of the latest winter clothing designed by Voule, an Italian famous
brand. Cole stood under the light while wearing a knee-length army green overcoat with a V-neck
sweater. He flung the coat backward, looking cool and attractive.
Though Verena hated Cole for being flippant, there was no denying that he looked totally different when
standing in front of the cameras. Both his facial expression and eyes changed into a domineering look
just like a majestic king. No wonder he was awarded as a superstar.
All female crew members around were all rendered blushed. They were really amazed for seeing such
a prince charming in the flesh!
After watching for a while, Verena looked outside the window. She was lost in thought again.
She didn't expect that Eden actually appeared to be one of the Lawson Family as well. He didn't come
back home that night just because of his busy work. Though she didn't deem it a coincidence at the
beginning, it still went beyond her expectation.
However, it meant nothing for her but a mere surprising fact. The most important point was that she
could clearly tell how hateful and disdainful Lemuel was against her!
At the same time, she also hated him badly. However, she still had to try all means to marry such a
hateful guy. What a ridiculous paradox!
The more ridiculous fact was that she had actually had sex with him for three times no matter she
asked for it or not!
"Hey, stepmom! What are you thinking? Are you afraid that I will expose your real identity in front of
Eden?" Cole suddenly patted on her shoulder.
Verena was startled and her body suddenly shivered. She tried to smooth her breath and said casually,
"Just do it if you want to. After all, he will know that sooner or later. Besides, I have no reason to be
afraid of that! He is nobody for me!"
"You are right." Cole shrugged and then fixed his eyes on her brightly, "Hey, how did you cook that
spicy chicken? Do that again tonight, okay?"
"No!" Verena refused without hesitation. She was not a cook!
"Come on, it's just a meal! Do it again!" Cole's handsome face suddenly twisted while he was
complaining.
"You have captured me and my appetite! But now you simply ignore my earnest request? Come on,
don't play tricks on me!"
Hearing that, Verena couldn't help refuting, "Mr. Cole! Do you think you are acting an affectional film
with me? Stop saying such ambiguous words! It's just a spicy chicken dish."
"Come on…" Cole smiled and said complacently, "You know what an affectional film is?"
"I am not insane and I am not a fool and I am not a blind! Of course I could tell what an affectional film
is!"
