Chapter 8 A New Backer

Hearing Kristen’s words, Jason was not angry at all. “Kristen, why are you still covered with thorns after a year? But I like your character. Now I will give you another chance. Be my lover and I will ask my sister to let you go. I promise you that you will be a famous star.” Looking at Kristen’s beautiful face, Jason’s heart was filled with desire. Kristen stood up and tried hard not to pour the wine on Jason’s face again. She sneered, “Sorry, you don’t deserve it, gigolo.” Did he want to keep her as his mistress? At least he had to have a face like Ethan’s! No, Ethan now wasn’t qualified to keep her as his mistress, either! Kristen ignored Jason, who was humiliated and angry and went to the empty rooftop on the third floor for some fresh air. The evening breeze blew through her hair and Kristen felt better. Just then, she heard footsteps behind her, which made her slightly unhappy. When she turned around and saw the man in the black suit, Kristen walked away without a second thought. The moment she passed him; Ethan grabbed her wrist. The man pursed his lips, “After the party, I’ll wait for you in the garage. Let’s go back together.” Mr. Wharton gave the others a way out. But Kristen didn’t appreciate it at all. She sneered, “Mr. Wharton, didn’t I make it clear that day? Let me say it again. We don’t have any relationship anymore. Let go.” Ethan’s expression darkened for a second, “Kristen, stop making trouble. Making me angry won’t do you any good.” “Make troubles?” Kristen smiled again, “Ethan, do you think you can’t survive without me? Or you can’t live without my face?” She struggled free of the man’s hand, and Ethan’s magnetic voice rang out, “Ending our relationship early is a breach of your contractual duty. You need to pay me 50 million.” Hearing that, Kristen froze. She scolded him in her heart. Why did she sign this annoying contract in the first place?” “And you have to return me all the money you spent before.” “Kristen, I’m offering you a chance. Come back with me and we can pretend that nothing happened.” Kristen had spent at least 500 million dollars in the past year. Five hundred and fifty million. How could she have so much money now? She clenched her fists, turned around, and looked up, “It’s written on the contract that I can pay back the money in two months. I’ll give you the money in two months.” Just as Kristen turned around, the man grabbed her wrist. She lost her balance. Ethan put his arm around her waist and pressed her against the wall. A hot masculine breath came over her. “Let go of me.” Ethan looked down at her, “Pay me back? How? Get a new financial backer?” Kristen wanted to refute him, but then she smiled, “That’s right. Jason came to me just now. A few hundred million dollars is not a problem for him! I think he must be more generous than Mr. Wharton...” “Hmm.” Before she could finish her words, Kristen’s lips were covered. When the man pried open her teeth with his lips, she was stunned. After Kristen came back to her senses, she was angry and wanted to push the person in front of her away, but her waist and hands were grabbed by him tightly. Their lips and teeth were intertwined. After an unknown period, a voice sounded from nearby. “Taylor, I saw Mr. Wharton come up just now. He’s probably on the balcony! Go take a look.” Hearing the noise, Kristen hurriedly pushed Ethan away. She warned in a low voice, “Don’t let anyone find out that I’m with you.”
