Chapter 19 We're Getting Married Soon
Moreover...
Why was she so confident that there was no need for debugging and they could start shooting right away? Because...she had to change poses every three seconds. However, whether it was lazy, casual, aggressive or cute, as long as the photographer said to switch, Lilian could immediately get into character with surprising speed.
Sylvia stood by watching Lilian transform back into her former self and was moved almost to tears. She not only teared up but also took out her phone and snapped photos of Lilian in various poses to send to Kevin. Thanks to Lilian's connections, Sylvia knew Mr. Alexander's phone number; however at this time Kevin was still on the plane...
During the four-hour shoot, Lilian used her professionalism to conquer both the photographer and several other colleagues present. Even Mr. Fitzgerald who once told Lilian off couldn't help but give her a thumbs up after seeing how well she performed during the shoot. He sincerely explained that he lost his temper before because he had been deceived.
After removing her makeup, Lilian returned to her usual calm demeanor and spoke kindly with everyone around her which caused Mr. Fitzgerald's favorable impression of her skyrocketed.
Sylvia quickly handed clothes over for Lillian to put on while passing over a flashing mobile phone: "It's Brent calling..."
Lilian remained expressionless when answering the call: "Hello?"
"Lilian have you seen or heard any news?" Brent asked tentatively.
"What happened?" Lillian pretended calmly asking back,"What has occurred?"
"Nothing!" Brent firmly believed that since Lillian is in Paris she wouldn't know anything about it so he came up with an idea,"Lilian why don't I fly over tomorrow? We can register our marriage there since Paris has beautiful scenery making it perfect for us taking a vacation together."
In fact,Lilian came from an extraordinary background as she was the daughter of a famous perfume family. However, due to her relationship with Brent, she faced strong opposition from her family in recent years and their relationship became so strained that they almost never spoke to each other. But...her surname is still Moore and even after the elder who controlled The Moore Family passed away, Lilian still inherited part of the estate along with others.
Brent had always refused to break up with Lilian not only because he found her naive and easy to deceive but also because of inheritance reasons.
Now that his video with Hillary has been released, he can only quickly register for marriage while Lillian hasn't reacted yet.
"Let's not get married until you've cleared things up between you and Hillary!"Lilian directly refused.
"Hillary and I really have nothing going on! Those photos were all misunderstandings..."
"The photos were misunderstandings then what about the video?"Lilian calmly asked back,"I am indeed in Paris but...Paris is also in this country. Do you think I wouldn't know about hot news? Or do you think I'm so easily fooled?"
"Lilian...I didn't mean it like that. You should know me best after being together for so many years." Brent pretended to be pitiful playing his sympathy card,"It was just one-sided feelings on her part; my love is for you."
"What if I say Rainer Entertainment will either have both of us or neither?" Lilian firmly questioned again.
"Lilian,I always thought that you understood me best. Why are you forcing me like this?" Brent felt pained since he didn't want to give up either side:Hillary was his first love carrying his child while Lilian...for a moment,Brent really didn't know which choice he should make.
"If you feel forced,you can go find Hillary.She's very understanding."
"Do we have to do it this way?" At this point, Brent had already decided to give up on Hillary. After all...Hillary's background was very ordinary and the only reason she could get to where she is now was because he helped her become famous. Compared to Lilian,she was at best just a plaything,"Give me some time so I can find an opportunity to talk with Hillary. When that happens, we'll register for marriage immediately."
"Then I'll wait." Lilian's seemingly calm words were actually filled with contempt.
"Hillary would never let Brent go. She's carrying his child," Sylvia said, taking the phone from Hillary with a disdainful expression. "Let's not answer his calls anymore...it'll only ruin our mood."
"Let's head back to the hotel, I'm feeling tired," Lilian smiled nonchalantly.
Sylvia nodded and led her to their rooms which were separated by a wall. After opening Lilian's door for her, she advised, "Rest well...don't think too much about it. We still have outdoor shoots tomorrow."
"Mhm." Lilian nodded before closing the door behind her. However, as she turned around, she heard rushing water coming from the bathroom and asked cautiously, "Who is in there?"
The person inside seemed to hear her voice and turned off the tap while Lilian stood at the doorway worried that she had entered the wrong room. Suddenly a tall figure emerged from within and hugged her waist tightly saying, "It's me."
Lilian turned around to see Kevin and was surprised but stuttered out words of confusion before he interrupted with a kiss on her lips saying, "Didn't I promise you a miracle? I was tired after flying all day so I wanted to take a shower first..."
Lilian was stunned by Kevin's words being true but quickly wrapped herself around his lean waist.
"Wife...do you want me to remind you that I'm not wearing anything?" Kevin teased.
Lilian blushed deeply upon hearing this then replied shyly saying he should wash up first...
"But I want us together!" Without waiting for Lilian’s response again,Kevin carried her into the bathroom under the showerhead where they kissed passionately without going any further yet both felt satisfied afterwards. One quietly did skincare while another reviewed materials lying on bed; seeing this made Lilian feel sorry for him: “We're here together now but you still have work?”
Kevin looked up, closed the materials and gestured for Lilian to sit on his lap. He apologized with a smile saying, "It's become a habit."
"Do I not have any attraction? Brent called me today and said he wants to marry me!" Lilian complained to Kevin with some sadness.
