Chapter 19 Not in a hurry to beat her
Harriet didn't want to meet Wesley and was going to sneak to the bathroom. The director happened to see her and was surprised by her flushed face. "Harriet, what is wrong with your face?"
Harriet suddenly felt a cold sight on her back which made her tremble. She knew who he was without turning around to check.
"It's okay, I was just accidentally hurt. It can be recovered after I wash it." Harriet smiled, straightened up and continued to wipe her face casually.
Wesley looked slightly cold when he spotted that Harriet was wearing a dirty costume and her face was swollen.
He instructed Charlene to take good care of Harriet and give her good scripts to play. She just canceled the contract directly then signed a small company to play such small roles. She made herself so embarrassed after all!
Why would she want to clarify the relationship with him so desperately?
"Wes...Wesley?" Seeing the man not responding, Irene handed him the milk tea. "I love this milk tea. If you don't mind ..."
"I don't have a sweet tooth." Wesley's eyes moved away from Harriet. His heart seemed to be broken and his tone was getting colder and colder. He left indifferently without paying attention to Irene. Irene was standing with milk tea, angry and awkward.
She was Louisa's cousin. Even if she just was a distant relative. She thought she could get along with Wesley, or create some news with his fame, but he just did not care about her at all!
"Miss Whitty, I like sweet food. You can give the milk tea to me!" Harriet was happy to see the awkward Irene. She came over with a smile, "Your future brother-in-law doesn't seem to like you!"
Irene threw the milk tea into the trash bin heavily and sneered at Harriet, "Didn't you see he was too busy to talk with me?"
"Besides, I'm better than you! I have at least such a great brother-in-law, but you can't be with that kind of man for your lifetime!" Harriet: "..."
She had been with Wesley for two years!
Irene might felt that she lost her dignity while chatting with Harriet. She just left with a cold face and irony. She was actually gloating over her swollen face.
Harriet smiled and said nothing.
She still had a long time in the future to make her revenge. Do not need to hurry.
The redness and swelling on her face would not disappear for a while. Harriet had to act the crowd actress so she could only cover it with a thick foundation. When she arrived in the field, a man came towards her.
"Miss Harriet." The man gave Harriet the small box, which seemed to be a salve. "This is a swelling ointment commonly used in hospitals. After you apply it, your face will be fine in half an hour."
The crowd around kept looking at them with curiosity.
"Thank you." Harriet didn't know the man, but could Alleness who sent him over. She just sneered and then threw the ointment directly into the trash can, and turned away.
Oh, Wesley just sympathized with her?
It was not a joke that she wanted get rid of him. She did not need his concern!
It was not until six o'clock in the evening that the crew stopped working.
Harriet had to go home by taxi as she did not have a motor home anymore. She smelled the fragrance of dinner as soon as she entered the house. Changing the shoes at the entrance, she talked to Colin, "I ask you to prepare for the enrollment test, have you done?"
"I finished it at three o'clock in the afternoon, and went out for a jog for an hour before I came back to cook." Colin brought the dishes to the table as Harriet was ready to have the dinner. Seeing Harriet's red and swollen face, Colin frowned. "Harriet, what's wrong with your face, have you been bullied?"
Harriet touched her face, thinking that she hadn't removed his makeup yet bu Colin just recognized it. She whispered, "It's okay, maybe it was made during the filming. Let's eat, I'm starving."
Colin didn't say anything but went straight to take the medicine box and called Harriet to sit down. The swelling spray was gently sprayed on her face. It hurt but Harriet gritted her teeth and said nothing. "Harriet, I'll pick you up after you off work." Colin said. Harriet took him to the garage to see the car before. He had learned to drive before and it is easy for him to get a driving license. "You are too tired on your own."
"You pick me up? You don't have a driver's license!" Harriet glanced at him obliquely. "You just need to prepare for the test. The company is already arranging an assistant for me."
"But......"
"I'm so hungry. I want have dinner!"
Harriet went to the dining room directly, boasting about Colin's cooking skills. Colin could just sigh and say nothing. They sat down and enjoyed the dinner together.
Harriet usually read the entertained gossip news while eating and this time very subtle news broke out, saying that the daughter of the boss in Peaceful Gaining Group returned America and was going to hold a birthday party in a certain village next month.
The reporter took a sneak photo which showed only the side profile of the daughter. The picture and the silhouette of the woman that Harriet saw that day overlapped. Finally Harriet knew who she was. It turned out that the woman was Louisa, the only daughter of the boss of Peaceful Gaining Group.
####Chapter 20 Do I still have a son?
Two years ago, when she was still with Wesley, she accompanied him to a reception because of business affairs, and met the woman there. She was with a blond man at the time and they kissed heartedly. Harriet saw Wesley's eyes staying on women for a long time. She curiously asked him for the woman but Wesley just looked away. She did not expect that they were unmarried couples.
"Harriet, are you okay?" Seeing Harriet's fascination on her phone screen, Colin asked, "What did you get?"
"It was just a piece of news." Harriet smiled and put away the phone.
And Colin glanced at her and was about to say something. Harriet said, "Colin, you can just say it frankly if you want to know something."
"It's not a big deal." Colin no longer concealed and said, "A man came to me this afternoon and said a lot of strange things."
Harriet frowned.
No one knew about her house in the western suburbs, except for Wesley.
"Is that the one who wore glasses last time?"
"No." Colin shook his head, struggling to recall, "He was also a secretary or the like. He said he was father's special assistant, and would like me to meet dad."
"He must be a liar." Harriet's eyes narrowed. "When you weren't born, mom divorced that man. It's been many years, and who will remember the past."
Colin nodded in accord. "And even if it is true, I will ignore it. I only have mom and you as my family. Our dad was already dead before I was born!"
Harriet smiled and urged him eating the food, "Okay, don't mind. I'll call security tomorrow. The man can't disturb us later."
When her mom divorced with their dad and raised them by herself, Harriet vowed that she would not agree if the man returned to confess their relationship. And she had a lot of money now, enough for them to live a wealthy life.
"I agree!"
Daniel White was refused by Colin. He would still like to stay for a while but was ruthlessly driven out by the security. He had to get back to Allen and thought the boy was such violent that he didn't let him finish his words.
He complained about him in his heart when Allen called in.
"Allen, I'm going to report for you." Daniel quickly answered, "but I was kicked out before I finished my words."
The person on the other side of phone was very frustrated, "Did she want to get rid of her father?"
"Allen, it wasn't the young lady who drove me out, it was a boy." And Daniel was ruthlessly blasted out before he said the name of their father. He thought about the boy's appearance, he hesitated, "The boy looks... like you."
"What?"
"I asked the property worker and found that the boy is the brother of the young lady." Daniel glanced at the files on the copilot. "From the age and appearance, Allen ..."
"I, I have a son?" Allen was very excited, he always thought there was only a daughter, "Hurry up and bring the information to me!"
"Allen, I'll be there soon."
"Quickly!"
After hanging up the phone, the excitement of the middle-aged man standing by the window had not subsided. His eyes were full of urgency. He could not wait to check the information that Daniel got. When he was young, his prioritized his career. After his career took off, he felt sorry for his ex-wife and daughter. He kept looking for the whereabouts of his ex-wife in recent years,
But she just moved constantly and he failed to find her for a long time. He almost gave up. Daniel suddenly had found a clue in his ex-wife's former residence two month ago!
"I have not only a daughter, but also a son..." General Allen muttered. Thinking that for the past ten years his ex-wife had brought up two children by herself, he felt infinite guilty. He must ask for the details when Daniel White arrived and went to see the two kids!
"Honey, have you finished your work?" The study door was pushed open. A woman in her forties came in, dressed appropriately, with a faint smile on her face. "Louisa and Wesley have come over for dinner."
"It's done." Allen Jones put his mobile phone on the desk. He looked at his current elegant and gentle wife who educated their daughter and managed the house for him. He knew it was a hard job.
The man moved his lips, but he finally kept those words in his heart. The wife just smiled and took his arm out of the study.
When going out, the woman turned her head and looked at the desk with her gloomy eys.
