Chapter164
Bethany didn’t want any drama, so she picked up a glass.
“Did you not come home tonight, couldn’t see you?”
Pap –
The glass in Bethany’s hand fell to the ground.
Orange juice and glass shards made a mess of the carpet in front
of me.
He actually knew her thoughts.
Terrence stepped forward, his long fingers lifting Bethany’s
chin, his delicate features close to her face, almost just a paper’s
distance away. “I guessed right, nervous like this?”
The scorching smell, mixed with a hint of his unique tobacco
scent, enveloped Bethany’s body.
Facing him, Bethany was always a bit nervous.
She was afraid that she wouldn’t be able to leave the office now,
or else Terrence would find a way to bring her back home.
The man suddenly let go of her, took a puff of smoke, and the
Chapter164
smoke sprayed out. A lot of smoke spread to Bethany’s face.
He stubbed out the unfinished cigarette in the ashtray, grabbed
Bethany, and pushed her onto the sofa.
The cold stare, like the sharp edge reflected by a dagger.
“Tell me, is it?”
She was restrained by him and couldn’t use sign language.
She pursed her lips, wanting to push him away, but he lowered
his head and kissed her.
She pushed his chest in a panic.
His hands were also wildly pounding on him.
“Hiss…”
Terrence let her go.
Bethany saw the bandage around his neck stained red with
blood.
When she was just randomly hitting, she accidentally hit his
wound.
Terrence furrowed his brows, pursed his lips tightly, raised his
Chapter164
hand towards his neck, then dropped it back down.
He let go of her, his face dark as ink, “Get lost!”
A woman who was extremely disappointed.
She ruined all my good mood.
Bethany didn’t even stay for a second, she immediately bolted
out of Terrence’s office.
Walking out of the McConnell Group office building, Bethany’s
nerves finally relaxed a bit. She hailed a car on the side of the
road, went to the mall to buy a computer, and then returned to
her small apartment.
I opened my computer, clicked into a foreign animation
production forum, and checked out the animation style that Mr.
Farley likes.
If it was Bethany seven years ago, she was very confident in
herself.
Just now, she has only made some simple animated stories for
Emery to watch, the difficulty level is quite low.
However, she thought of Ms. Guzman’s encouragement, and she
didn’t plan on giving up.
Chapter164
Since Davon’s movie hadn’t been released yet, the script couldn’t
be made public either. Bethany didn’t know what style Davon
needed, so she just went with her own inspiration and designed
an animated character based on the movies he had made before,
and started practicing.
Not long after, her phone rang.
It was Kyson who called.
Kyson knew she wouldn’t talk, so he called, hung up, and then
texted her.
“Beth, my grandpa saw your work and really wants to meet
you. His birthday party is the day after tomorrow and he
specially invites you to join. Can you make it?”
Kyson and Terrence seemed pretty close. Kyson’s grandpa’s
birthday party, Terrence will definitely be there. She didn’t
want to run into Terrence.
“Sorry Mr. Duarte, I’m not free the day after tomorrow.”
Kyson replied back right away.
“I made plans with Terrence, he agreed on his end, aren’t you
going to accompany him?”
Chapter 164
Bethany looked at the message Kyson sent, put down her
phone, she didn’t know Kyson well.
Settled the accounts.
Thirty million is enough for her, no need to have deeper
interaction with Kyson.
Although Kyson spoke up for her that night, Kyson is
ultimately Terrence’s friend.
She and Terrence were both done, no need to have anything to
do with Terrence’s friends.
Kyson waited for a while, but didn’t get any message from
Bethany.
He called Terrence.
“Terrence, your wife can’t talk, not convenient to call, help me
tell her to attend my grandfather’s birthday banquet.”
“Don’t come to me about her stuff!”
Terrence just hung up the phone.
Kyson heard the “beep beep” in his phone and put it away.
Terrence sounded really unhappy.
Chapter164
)
Did they have a fight?
Kyson was helpless, so he had to keep messaging Bethany.
“Beth, I invited you, nothing to do with Terrence, it’s my
grandpa who saw the paper–cutting works of you and your
grandma, and he wants to meet you. He has a habit of collecting
paper–cuttings and really likes your works. He’s already a fan of
yours, saying he has a very important gift to give you. He asked
me to invite you over, can you do me a favor?”
Kyson was polite and courteous in every word and line.
But because Terrence was going, she really didn’t want to get
involved.
