Suzy took a deep breath and said righteously, "Evan, you're thinking too much. I don't like you."
Hearing that, Evan sized her up and began probing her, expressing his inner thoughts.
"You don't like me? Why did you follow me to the resort these days?"
Suzy: "That's because I'm bored staying in a hotel alone!"
"Then why did you block the shot for me? You looked so happy when you saw me coming in," Evan questioned.
Suzy was at a loss for words. "I did that for the money, okay? I saw you just now because... I should take that shot for you. As your savior, I can at least give you something in return, right?"
The latter half of what Suzy said was somewhat lacking in confidence. However, it was also the truth.
Evan narrowed his eyes slightly, and his voice sounded hoarse. "Do you mean you can even give up your life for money?"
Suzy held back her temper and continued to explain, "It's not just money. You are now my backer. If something happens to you, who can I turn to for help in the company? Teresa hates me very much. Now that she knows I have bought Starlight Pictures, I don't know what she will do."
Suzy was telling the truth. She raised her eyes and continued, "Do you think that because you are very handsome and rich, all the women in the world like you? I'm sorry, but I am an exception."
Evan: "..."
Suzy's face was full of disdain. Her hidden monologue had been written on her face: If it wasn't for money, who would want to get close to you?
"Are you telling the truth?" Evan asked.
Suzy nodded. "You are not to my taste. I want to make money now. I'll keep a group of handsome guys in the future."
When Starlight Pictures made money, Suzy would set up a male team and debut with different kinds of handsome guys. Just thinking about it made her happy.
Evan's face darkened. Ever since he had suspected that Suzy had fallen in love with him, he had felt troubled. He didn't like her but needed her to sleep with him. But now, hearing these denials from her, he felt very unhappy.
"Got it."
After saying that, Evan stood up and left.
"Hey, you..."
The door was slammed shut. Suzy was speechless. Hadn't he even given her any benefits before he left?
"Forget it, forget it. I'll still have a chance to mention it in the future." Thinking of this, Suzy turned off the light and fell asleep on the bed.
About half an hour later, the ward door opened again when she was about to fall asleep in a daze. Suzy opened her eyes with a trace of irritation on her face. The moonlight shone through the window and reflected Evan's cold face.
"Why are you here again?"
"Sleep with me," Evan said calmly.
After saying that, he walked into the bathroom.
Suzy instantly lost all sleepiness. She had to sleep with him when she was injured - Go to hell! She wanted to cry loudly!
After a while, Evan changed into his pajamas, walked out of the bathroom, and lay beside Suzy.
Suzy smelled the faint smell of tobacco on his body and then asked, "Are you unable to sleep without me?"
"Cut the crap."
Suzy: "…"
Suzy did not ask any more questions and changed the topic.
"Evan, no matter what, I'm still your savior, aren't I?"
Evan knew what she meant and replied directly, "What do you want?"
Suzy smiled and said probingly, "Then consider that 100 million dollars as consolation for taking a shot for you. Don't let me pay you back, okay?"
The debt of $100 million should be paid with one shot, anyway. It was worth it.
"Okay."
When they signed the contract, Evan had never considered asking Suzy to return the $100 million.
"Thank you, Mr. Hughes." Suzy, who was debt-free, was immediately in a good mood. She continued, "By the way, there's also the money for hiring bodyguards and the medical expenses..."
Suzy seemed to be a penny pincher now. Evan had seen many women who approached him, but he had never seen Suzy act so brazenly. Annoyance flashed across his face, and he interrupted her directly.
"Shut up!"
Suzy pursed her lips and seemed to have thought of something. She blinked and asked, "Evan, did you ask if I like you or not? Don't tell me that you have been falling in love with me just because I saved your life?"
That was why Evan was unhappy after hearing her righteous explanation.
Upon hearing this, Evan sneered. "You're overthinking it."
Suzy also felt that she was thinking too much. "Then what will you do if I like you?"
"I will let you scram."
Suzy was extremely speechless.
Suzy was speechless for a few seconds and felt a little regretful. If she had known earlier, she would have expressed affectionately that she had fallen in love with Evan. How wonderful it would have been if she could take the money and get out of here!
But now, she had no chance to stage a comeback. So she could only regretfully say, "It's good that you don't like me. Don't worry, and I won't like you either. After a year, we will have nothing to do with each other."
Evan was getting more and more annoyed by Suzy's words. He said coldly, "If you continue to nag, get out of here."
"If I were to scram, would you still be able to sleep soundly?" Suzy teased fearlessly.
"Suzy!"
Hearing the warning, Suzy didn't dare to provoke him anymore. She smiled, "All right, I won't talk about it anymore. Let's sleep. Good night, Mr. Hughes."
When Suzy woke up the next day, Evan was already gone.
After the drip in the morning, Suzy was bored. She dragged her sick body to the garden downstairs to bask in the sun. The autumn sun shone warmly on her body. Although her back was still a little painful, Suzy felt very comfortable.
The only unfortunate thing was that she met Michael, the eldest brother of the Carters family when she was about to return to the ward. He was the CEO of the Carters Group.
Suzy did not intend to say anything, but Michael stopped her.
"Wait, Suzy."
"Mr. Carters, what's the matter?"
Michael was dressed in a black suit. He was already 30 years old and looked mature and steady.
"Are you ill?" Michael asked as he looked at Suzy's pale face.
"Mr. Carters, if you have something to say, just say it."
Michael indeed had something to discuss with Suzy. He had intended to contact Suzy after leaving the hospital but did not expect to meet her. He came to the hospital to visit Aaron, the CEO of a company in Meladie. As soon as Aaron arrived in Somo City, he was hospitalized due to an unaccustomed climate.
Michael wanted to cooperate with Aaron. When they were in the ward, Aaron said, "I've seen a lot of scenes put on by your sister before, and I like her very much. I wonder if Mr. Carters can invite her to be my tour guide for a few days."
In the beginning, Michael thought Aaron was talking about Teresa, but he didn't expect it to be Suzy.
After thinking about it, Michael said, "Suzy, are you satisfied with being willful outside? I'll give you a chance to return to the Carters family."
"I don't need your concern, thank you."
Suzy naturally knew that Michael had something to ask of her. In her previous life, she had not left the Carters family. Her elder brother had come to her and asked her to play with Aaron for a few days. Suzy had agreed and served Aaron like a servant. Anran was very open-minded, and Suzy had been harassed by him and almost slept with Aaron.
After signing the contract, Michael used all kinds of excuses every time he had social interactions to get Suzy involved. Suzy was the Second Miss of the Carters family, but she seemed to have become a hostess.
