Chapter 75 Visiting Jean

"Apologies, Director Guo. I was thinking about something else just now." Lisa apologized for spacing
out for a moment. She straightened her back and leaned forward. "I think I know how the play will go."

"Really?" Director Guo tilted his head and looked at Lisa with a hint of doubt. "I’m telling you, if you
can’t still act well, then I have to let you and Julia exchange roles until you can do it."

"Be assured, I’ll give my role justice this time." She held her chin up.

Although she was clueless about why Julia let her go, Lisa had reached her purpose, nonetheless. If it
went on like this, Director Guo wouldn’t be pleased. She had to give up.

After they settled, they proceeded to film shooting. Director Guo was satisfied since the following
scenes went on smoothly. The last scene was revolving around the hero and the heroine. Right after
Julia finished their performance, she headed to the dressing room. Abby followed her. "Julia, I bought
some ointment for you. This will prevent the swelling of your injury."

"Thank you. I appreciate it." Julia’s face lit up. Her scenes for that day were finished.

She hadn’t had a good rest for so long. On her chair, she grabbed pieces of cotton and started
removing her makeup. Before leaving, she packed all her stuff and covered herself up with her coat on
the way out. It was already late when she arrived at her hotel room.

Terrence arrived only minutes after Julia left.

Since he knew that Julia was shooting in this area, he couldn’t take it out of his mind. When he went to
the company this morning, he couldn’t focus on his work. After hesitating for a long time, he finally
decided to pay her a visit.

The atmosphere on set instantly changed when Terence appeared out of nowhere. He was looking
around for Julia when Jean came out. She asked in a sweet voice, "Why are you here, Terence?"



In order not to be awkward, Terence smiled. His mouth was shut because he couldn’t even think of
anything to say.

Discreetly, he studied the area searching for Julia, but he failed.

"Hmm, are you here to visit me?" Jean’s smile was plastered on her face.

"Uh, yes," Terence answered while scratching his nose. "Since you’re injured, I’m worried about you
and I decided to drop by after work. Is it over?"

"No. Not yet. But they no longer need me for the following scenes today. I can go now."

"Really?" His eyes were still scanning the place.

"Terence? Hey. Terence!" Jean was not a fool. Seeing his severe expression, she knew that Terence
came here for Julia. Although she was very angry, she still kept her countenance and said, "I'm talking
to you. Did you hear me?"

"What?" Her words brought Terence back to reality. He leaned forward, his hand slightly massaging his
own nape.

He had already looked around but unfortunately didn’t find Julia. He was all torn up.

"I said, just wait for me. I’ll inform the director that I have to bounce out. Let’s have dinner together,
shall we?" Jean insistently invited him while being flirtatious at the same time.

"Okay." Feeling out of choices, he nodded.

Her eyes still fixed on Terence and she asked, "Then, can you come with me?"

There was another thing occupying her mind. Jean and Terence’s relationship had been falsely
disclosed on the Internet. Their relationship was nothing like what was going around. But she was



determined to prove the rumors around.

"Let’s go. Director Guo kept on talking about you when we were together. It seems like he wants to be
your friend." While talking, she wrapped her hands at Terence’s left arm and walked towards the
director.

Lisa had just finished another scene. Meters away, she saw Jean holding someone’s arm approaching
them. She narrowed her eyes and figured that the man was Terence. Her eyes lit up.

"Director, if there’s nothing else, we’ll leave now," Jean said.

"Okay. You should go now. Don’t make Mr. Chen wait here for too long." Director Guo rose to his feet
and reached out his hand to Terence. "Mr. Chen, I’ve heard a lot about you."

"Nice meeting you." Terence shook hands with Director Guo and then let go.

"I’ve always wanted to meet you, Mr. Chen. I’m hoping to work with you ever since. But well, I didn’t
expect to see you in a place like this. I’m sorry," the director said awkwardly. He wanted to sit down with
Terence to have a meal and talk about having a collaboration.

It saddened him that he never had a chance to.

Terence smiled and said nicely, "I am sure there will be opportunities in the future."

Jean had been holding Terence’s arm all the time. Everyone else who saw them thought that the two
were very intimate. Terence didn’t notice it all along since he was thinking about Julia.

"Then, we are leaving now." Jean bade farewell to Director Guo with a pleasant smile glued on her
face.



"Okay, go ahead," Director Guo replied. They were walking towards where Terence parked his car
when they passed by Lisa. Lisa approached them. "Jean, why don’t you introduce your friend to me?"

"Lisa…" Jean glanced at Terence, feeling uneasy. She knew Terence was here because of Julia. She
was afraid that he would be unhappy if she introduced him to Lisa.

"A pleasure to meet you.

I’m Terence Chen." While Jean was hesitating, Terence took the initiative to greet Lisa. Jean was
surprised.

"Nice to meet you, too." There was a touch of curiosity and desire in Lisa’s eyes.

She believed that she had seen all kinds of men in the entertainment circle.

Meeting Terence in flesh and bones made her realize that God was unfair to people. The man in front
of her was indeed good-looking, obviously rich, and well-known in his industry. Above all that, his voice
was angelic and magnetic.

‘Compared to him, my boyfriend, Richard, is good for nothing except that he is rich.

I wonder, how could Jean find such an excellent man? We’re all women here. Why do I have to date a
man who's old enough to be my dad?’ Lisa had many ugly, condescending thoughts in her head.

The more Lisa looked at Terence, the more jealous she felt. She hoped that she could show herself
more in front of him. Lisa lowered her head and batted her eyes in a subtle seducing way. When Jean
noticed what she was doing, she immediately knew what Lisa was thinking about.

She gave a scornful smile and said, "Maybe it’s fate that you two met here today."

"Really? What do you mean?" Terence asked.



"Don’t you know?" Jean smiled. "Lisa told me that she has a boyfriend. And he is your business
partner, Terence. Then it’s not a coincidence that we are all here. Let’s have dinner together some
other time."

"Boyfriend?" Terence looked at Lisa, and his lips parted. "May I know who your boyfriend is?"

"Don't you know?" Before Lisa got a chance to speak, Jean cut her off. "He’s Richard Zhang of TL
Company."

"Oh, Richard." Terence nodded.

At this moment, Lisa felt extremely disgusted with Jean. She couldn’t figure out why she had to tell that
to him.
