Chapter 299: Chapter 241 I’ll Wait for Your Answer
lissa ignored the chill coming from the man beside her, calmly picked up the phone, and said, "Hello, Jaylin!"
"lissa, are you busy? Did I disturb you?" Jaylin asked in a soft voice.
"No, not at all. What’s the matter?" lissa asked indifferently.
"It’s about ’Harem’. I found so characters suitable for you. I wonder which character you prefer. How about discussing it together when you are free?" Jaylin asked on the phone.
lissa thought for a while and answered, "Okay! How about tomorrow night?"
"Alright, see you tomorrow!" Jaylin said, keeping his tone light when lissa agreed with his idea.
"See you tomorrow!" lissa said, nodding her head.
Murray’s face fell when he heard their conversation.
Murray thought, What? Did she say they would et tomorrow night?
Is she going to date Jaylin?
How dared she agree with that in my presence?
Murray gave her a black look and asked in a cold tone, "Are you going to see Jaylin tomorrow night?"
"Yes!" lissa answered affirmatively.
"You are not allowed to go!" Murray frowned and said in an autocratic style.
"What? I’m free to go anywhere I want!" lissa said. She glanced at Murray and said sarcastically, "I don’t like your bossy manner. It’s only the first day of the probation period!"
Murray couldn’t utter a word.
That wasn’t only a matter of his performance.
Murray knew how much Jaylin liked lissa.
Even if lissa had no feelings for Jaylin, Murray still didn’t want to give Jaylin any chance to stay with lissa.
After all, Jaylin had pursued lissa for two years. Moreover, Jaylin had just proposed to lissa last night.
"Jaylin only asked
to discuss the characters in ’Harem’. It’s all about business," lissa explained when she saw Murray’s face beco darker than the coal.
"Do you have to act in the play?" Murray asked with a frown. His thin lips were tightly pursed into a line, showing his displeasure at the mont.
"Of course! I must keep my word!" lissa said as she nodded affirmatively.
There was no turning back. lissa told the reporters that she would act in "Harem" at the awards party last night when she promoted the new drama.
Murray put on a long face and said nothing more.
As Murray drove lissa back to Eastern Garden, the two persons kept silent along the way.
lissa got off the car, smiled at Murray, and said, "Thank you for taking
back!"
As lissa was about to go upstairs, she suddenly found Murray following behind her.
lissa stopped, turned around to face him, and asked, "Are you not going back ho?"
Murray grabbed lissa’s arm and said in a low voice, "lissa, move back to Moonlight Mansion!"
"Why?" lissa furrowed her brows.
"You are my fiancée. How can you live with another man?" Murray asked with an ice-cold expression on his face, which led to a drop in temperature.
lissa rolled her eyes at Murray snappily and said, "I haven’t accepted your proposal yet."
She pushed Murray back into the car and said, "Go ho now! Hurry up!!"
lissa turned around and was ready to leave when Murray suddenly pulled her back.
"What are you doing?" lissa asked. She was speechless by sentintal things.
Murray pulled lissa into his arms, lowered his head, and whispered into her ear, "lissa, I’ll wait for your answer. Don’t let
wait too long!"
lissa could feel Murray’s warm breath on her neck.
It was like a soft feather gently scratching her neck, and she felt itchy and numb.
lissa took a deep breath and pushed Murray away. She pursed her lips and said indifferently, "I told you that would depend on your performance, didn’t I?"
As Murray watched lissa turn around and leave him, Murray looked confused at first, then his gaze falling on lissa beca extrely firm.
Murray would try everything to win lissa’s heart.
Murray also believed that it wouldn’t take long.
When lissa got ho, she felt a little bit tired. Therefore, she put off the improvent of Ice and Fire she had planned to do that night.
Lying slothfully on the bed, lissa couldn’t stop thinking of the romantic scene when Murray had asked her to marry him.
After tossing and turning for a long ti, lissa fell asleep.
Murray appeared in her dream that night.
Moreover, it was a sexual dream.
In her dream, Murray kissed her in an overbearing manner. They hugged and kissed on a king bed. She didn’t resist him at all. Instead, she enjoyed it very much.
lissa suddenly woke up with a start. She turned on the light, looked around, and only found that it was only a dream.
lissa felt shaful for that dream.
lissa thought, How could I have that kind of dream?
It was all Murray’s fault. He has been so provocative.
lissa took a few deep breaths before she chased away those strange emotions.
...
Adela was pestering Declan in the study room of the Yale family’s villa.
Adela asked, "Declan, when can I start to work in the Gibson Corporation?"
Declan rubbed his temples in frustration. He looked up at his adorable sister and said, "Adela! I still need so ti to arrange that. Don’t worry too much about it!"
Adela pulled Declan by the arm and said with an innocent look, "How long should I wait? Declan, I know you love
the most. I don’t care how hard it is. I only want to work in the Gibson Corporation as soon as possible!"
Declan sighed helplessly and said, "Adela, there are so many nice n in this world except Murray."
Determined, Adela said, "He is the only man in the world that I love."
"Alright, I’ll find another way," Declan said perfunctorily.
"You must help !" Adela emphasized.
Adela couldn’t wait any longer. All she wanted was to see Murray in the Gibson Corporation every day.
After coming out of the study room, Adela received a call from Julie when she returned to her room.
It was already 11 pm. Adela looked at the ti and asked, "Why are you calling
at such a late ti?"
"Adela, there’s sothing you don’t know. And I’m not sure whether to tell that to you or not," Julie said hesitantly.
Fretting about Julie’s hesitation, Adela said snappishly, "Say it! You shouldn’t hide anything from !"
Julie hurriedly said, "My cousin went to the beach with her child tonight, and she saw Murray and lissa there."
Adela put on a long face and asked jealously, "What? Did they stay together until late in the night?"
"Yes, and..." Julie said.
"And what?" Adela interrupted.
"And Murray proposed to lissa," Julie said carefully.
There was a trace of an incomparable hatred hard to hide in Adela’s eyes.
Adela thought, What? Did he propose to lissa?
Oh, what a shaless slut! lissa must have seduced Murray!
Noticing Adela didn’t say anything, Julie quickly said, "Adela, don’t worry! It seems that he failed."
"Failed? It must be lissa’s trick! I’ll make lissa suffer for it!" Adela said hatefully.
