Chapter 15 Visiting the Set
“Why is a substitute important to me?”
These words kept repeating in her mind, and her face changed.
On the other side, the conversation between the two men was still going on.
Ethan twitched his lips and said indifferently, “But the piece of land in Southia is quite important to the Collins Group, isn’t it?”
Hearing this, the smile on Steve’s face immediately disappeared.
“Ethan, what do you intend to do?” Steve looked gloomy.
Then Steve smiled again, “You’re just an illegitimate child. So what if you have TNK Group now? Do you think you can hurt the Collins family? If you go against the Collins family again, I’ll leave you with nothing, just like back then!”
As Steve finished speaking, a cold female voice sounded, “So what if he’s an illegitimate child? Ethan is more handsome than you, and he’s better than you in everything. There’s no way he’s going to lose everything.”
Kristen slowly walked out, walked to Ethan’s side, and took his arm.
She looked up at her at Steve and continued, “However, you, the young master of the Collins family, being so despicable. It’s so disgusting.”
“Kristen, you...” Steve looked very angry.
Why this woman did not leave Ethan?
“What’s wrong with me? Are you curious about why I am here? We have a good relationship. Hope you don’t meddle in others’ business again.”
Ethan looked at the woman whose face looked like it was saying “You don’t want to mess with me.”
Tsk, those handbags he bought for her paid off, she spoke up for him.
Kristen looked at him with a smile, “Let’s go to another restaurant. This one is unlucky.”
Ethan smiled, took her hand, and left.
Behind them, Steve’s looked extremely angry.
After getting in the car, Ethan asked slowly, “When did you come? How much did you hear?”
Kristen fastened her seatbelt and paused for two seconds, “From the beginning.”
“Not angry?”
Ethan found it strange. Given this woman’s personality, she should have started throwing a tantrum when she heard those words. Why was she speaking up for him in front of Steve?
Kristen shook her head, “I’m not angry. So what if I am a substitute. So what if I don’t matter to you. As long as you give me money, I don’t care.”
She was the one who kept a cool head.
Kristen thought it through. When the contract expired, she would probably get tired of Ethan’s face.
At that time, she would become popular. Then she would go back to Tornzia and keep an even more handsome man!
Ethan stared at the woman’s face, she looked as if she didn’t care about those words at all.
There was a flash of displeasure in his eyes, but in the end, he did not say those words.
“By the way, you’d better be wary of Steve. Don’t make your TNK Group bankrupt. Otherwise, I won’t have any money to spend!” Kristen warned Ethan cautiously, fearing that she would not have enough money to buy a bag in the future.
Ethan was speechless.
The two of them went to another restaurant. Ethan didn’t speak much during the meal.
After returning to the villa, he went straight into the study.
Kristen felt a little strange, but this man had always been a little unpredictable. She thought that he was angry with Steve.
She took a nice bath. After she applied the facial mask, washed her face, and used skin care products, Ethan still hadn’t returned to her room.
Kristen frowned. She knocked on the door and entered the study.
The man was reading a document. He wore black-framed glasses and had a serious expression on his face. He looked like a learned bastard.
“What is it?”
Kristen licked her lips and said unhappily, “It’s late. You’ll tire yourself out if you keep working.”
“Care about me?” Ethan looked up.
“Yes.” Kristen nodded, “If you collapse, who will make money for me?”
Ethan fell silent once more when he heard this.
He took off the glasses and walked back to the bedroom alone.
Kristen was confused. What’s wrong with this man?
