Chapter 2711
Three years were more than enough. At the very least, Giselle would not have to participate in any blind dates anymore.
In the meantime, if either of them came across a better partner or if they had fallen in love with someone else, they could just forfeit the agreement.
Long story short, they were just staying together to use each other as a shield.
“Dad, Mom, you’re just overthinking. Even though we can try to date each other, we need some time. What if it doesn’t work out after we get married? Am I going to get a divorce?”
Gordon and Estelle felt that she was right, so they did not force her anymore.
Giselle rose to her feet and said, “Alright, you don’t have to worry about us.”
After that, Giselle walked upstairs.
Estelle and Gordon looked at each other and sighed.
James came to the common room to look for Donny. “Umm, Mr. Winslow…”
Seeing that he had something to say, Donny raised his head. “Yeah?”
“Can I finish all of my shooting scenes for tomorrow today?” he asked.
Donny asked, “Do you have something else to do tomorrow?”
“Well, you can put it that way, but if you disagree, you can forget everything I said,” James replied, smiling awkwardly.
‘I knew it. I shouldn’t have come and asked for leave.’
He just started the shooting not long ago, and now he was already asking for a leave? What if Donny thought he was being cocky?
Donny knew that James wouldn’t come to look for him and ask something like this if he wasn’t out of options. He put the script down and said, “You have a night scene tomorrow. You will have my approval if you can make it here by 11:00 p.m. tomorrow. That’s my only request.”
James was momentarily stunned, and then a smile broke across his face. “Thank you so much, Mr. Winslow. Don’t worry. I’ll make it back before that!”
Donny waved his hand and said, “Alright, you can leave now.”
When James came out of the common room, he ran into Freyja and froze. “You…”
With a smile on her face, Freyja said, “You’ve done a great job today.”
James replied in embarrassment, “You’ve seen it?”
“Of course. You’re a very good actor right now. I hope you can keep it that way.”
James’ eyes glowed when he heard Freyja’s encouragement. He chuckled and said, “Sure. I promise I won’t let you down.”
After he finished speaking, he left.
Colton came over with Charm and looked in the direction James disappeared into. “What have you said
to him?”
Freyja poked Charm’s cheek and replied, “Nothing. I just gave him some encouragement. You aren’t jealous, are you?”
“Charm, your mother is so annoying,” Colton said, his face full of pride. Although he was complaining to his daughter, there was no anger in his voice.
Freyja chuckled. “Your daughter doesn’t know what you’re talking about.”
The next day, at Hewston City…
Giselle came to the airport to pick James up early in the morning. After James got into the car, she asked, “I thought you were shooting a movie now?”
“I have half a day only. I need to get back at six,” James answered as he closed his eyes to get some rest. He had not slept at all last night.
“The earlier we meet, the earlier we can get it done.” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Giselle wanted to say something but swallowed her words in the end.
When they were back at Giselle’s house, Gordon and Estelle were surprised to see James. “I thought Giselle told us you were shooting a movie now.”
James smiled at them and said, “I took a half-day leave from the director, and I need to get back at six.” Gordon replied, “I see. I didn’t expect you to take a half-day leave to come over here. I’m really sorry for causing you so much trouble.”
“It’s fine. But I didn’t bring any gifts with me since I was too busy. I’ll get someone to deliver them to you when I get back.”
