At this mont, Leslie Howard couldn’t help but look at Aiden Green warily, her beautiful, glassy eyes full of scrutiny towards the blond man in front of her.
Even though earlier in the public dressing room, she used the morning tea brought by Aiden to conveniently ’bribe’ the other actors and staff present, gaining back so goodwill.
But as long as she thinks about the so-called assistant in front of her, who is very likely arranged by her own biological mother or her stepfather to bind and monitor Winona Wallace.
Leslie feels a sense of discomfort throughout her body.
"Miss Howard, you’ve misunderstood. I’m neither soone sent by your company nor by those two people you ntioned. Sorry, outside just now, to avoid unnecessary trouble, I concealed my true identity. Actually, I was sent by Mr. Cesare."
The blond, blue-eyed man looked at Leslie Howard and spoke respectfully.
For so reason, when he spoke, the assistant-like deanor he displayed outside vanished completely, replaced instead with an inexplicable respectfulness.
Leslie couldn’t help but ask, "Cesare, who?"
She didn’t rember knowing any man by that na.
The blond, blue-eyed Aiden nodded slightly and said, "That is the na of my esteed master, Mr. Cesare Reddington. I am his personal bodyguard, Aiden. The Master ordered to co and assist Miss Howard, and from today onwards, I am entirely at Miss Howard’s disposal as her personal assistant."
"Reddington...?" Leslie’s rosy lips slightly parted, and the next mont, a pair of deep dark blue almond-shaped eyes flashed through her mind.
She only knew two people related to the Reddington na: David and that lady.
But what Aiden ntioned was clearly ’Master,’ so it had nothing to do with the lady from the Reddington family who helped her secure this role.
So, the only man who could be called Mr. Reddington was—
Leslie revealed, "The master you refer to, is it David?"
Though posed as a question, Leslie was almost a hundred percent sure.
As expected, Aiden nodded slightly and replied calmly and steadily, "Yes, the Master called early this morning. Due to the suddenness of the situation, I went to Oceanview Pavilion to buy breakfast and delivered it late, failing to let Miss Howard have breakfast earlier, which is my responsibility. I apologize, Miss Howard."
After speaking, Aiden suddenly bowed to Leslie, bowing his head low, nearly a ninety-degree bow.
This posture left Leslie Howard sowhat dumbfounded.
Even though she liked to ’push around’ David in private, she wanted to ’push around’ his people a bit as well.
But seeing a big man like Aiden bowing more than ninety degrees to her still made her feel awkward.
"Get up quickly, even I wasn’t aware of this beforehand, how could I bla you? You don’t need to bow, get up quickly. I have so questions for you."
With countless questions still swirling inside her, she hurriedly helped Aiden up.
Aiden naturally adhered to everything Leslie Howard said and imdiately stood up straight, ready to follow Leslie’s instructions.
Because the order David gave to Aiden was to completely obey Leslie’s arrangents.
Therefore, when Leslie started bombarding him with a thousand ’whys’ like a curious child, Aiden answered each one honestly.
For example—
Leslie Howard: "David... your master, why did he send you to be my assistant?"
Aiden: "Because the Master said you’re all alone and need help, so he sent over."
Leslie Howard: "..."
