Chapter 967
It was very common not to get any compensation at all even when the lawsuit was won.At around noon, Serenity received a call from Peter Wall. He asked her, "Do you… Do you know where I can find the actress named Susie Sheen? I… I'd like to see her.""Is there any problem?" Serenity asked him."I want to talk to her about Leon," he replied. "Perhaps she might sympathize with him. I wouldn't expect her to admit that she was the real driver, but perhaps she might agree to pay out a portion of the money so that Leon can get better treatments."Peter just wanted to do his best and give it a last try since Leon was an employee of his company, but because his company was still in its infancy, the help they could provide Leon's family was very limited. In fact, the company had donated money to them a few times, but it was still nowhere near enough to cover Leon's huge medical expenses.Meanwhile, Susie Sheen was a rather popular actress, and there were even reports not long ago that she

"But…""That's enough!" Susie interrupted angrily. "I'm not a philanthropist, and I'm not the driver who caused the accident! If I give them the money, then everyone will expect me to pay their bills when they get hurt from now on!"After speaking, she tried to leave immediately, but Peter held on to her arm and pleaded, "Miss Sheen…""Let go of me!" she yelled. Her assistant then instantly shoved Peter out of the way.Peter staggered for a while before he managed to steady himself. Susie gave Peter a death stare as she gave the security guards on the film set an order, "From now on, don't ever let these two people in here again! Damn it! They’ve completely ruined my mood to film today!"The security guards responded, "Yes, Miss Sheen!"By then, Serenity knew that they had come for nothing today, but just as she was about to tell Peter it was time to leave, she noticed the man staring intently at Susie, who was now stomping away."Stop staring at her," she told him. "Let's go.

What happened? Where could Serenity be right now?At that moment, the only thought that came up in his mind was Susie Sheen—he remembered how Serenity had seemed to be in deep thought after he had told her about the ring the actress was wearing. Could it be that Serenity… had gone back inside to confront Susie about it?The more Peter thought about it, the more plausible this conjecture sounded. And so, he rushed back to the set, where Susie stood in the middle of multiple cameras in the process of filming. Peter burst into the shot and asked her, "Have you seen Serenity Lewis, Miss Sheen? She's the woman who came with me earlier!"After scanning the place, Peter had not seen Serenity anywhere in here either, and he was now getting even more distressed. The film set was also thrown into chaos when an outsider barged in suddenly, and right now, Peter was subdued by several security guards while the crew members took him to task."How would I know where she is?!" Susie shouted in fur
Chapter 970
Lucas stormed toward Susie and demanded, "Where is Serenity?""I…" she stuttered in a shaking voice, "I don't know. I've got nothing to do with this!"Susie had no idea why the Prince of Showbiz would care so much about Serenity. Was she not just a lowly paralegal?! Why would the Prince of Showbiz be so concerned and anxious just because of that woman?In fact, Susie was not the only one puzzled by this. Even those who had never seen Serenity before were beginning to question what kind of relationship this woman had with Lucas."Perhaps Serenity just had something else to do and had to hurry somewhere else!" suggested Lynette, who had followed Lucas here.She had intentionally dragged Lucas here to this set today after having finished filming herself on another film set because she had heard rumors that the director working here was preparing for the next film. She had hoped to use Lucas's influence to perhaps land an important role in that film.But to her dismay, the moment the

By then, even Lynette, who was standing beside Lucas, was dumbfounded.Lucas… Lucas was not even listening to anything she said right now, because the only person he had in his mind at the moment was Serenity. Even his current murderous intent and cold savagery were all due to Serenity!Lynette truly believed that if this actress still refused to tell Lucas anything, he would soon kill her right then and there! And all just because of Serenity!Curse Serenity! Why the hell did Lucas care so much about her when Lynette was the woman Lucas believed to be the girl who had saved his life?! Lynette should be the woman that Lucas cared about the most in his life, not Serenity!Susie's body was trembling uncontrollably now as she was overcome by a devastating fear of death. She had acted in scenes where she had been choked before, but no matter how wild and barbaric the male actors she had worked with were in the past, and in fact, some of them had indeed been so violent that they did cho

The showbiz sector of the city had always been a hotspot for gossip, anyway, so now, everyone in the crowd began to make all kinds of speculations. As for the man who had started it all, Peter Wall, he just stood there confused and stupefied, still unable to process everything that had just happened.What… What exactly was going on between Lucas Gomez and Serenity?!Judging from the look on Lucas's face just now, it simply looked like… Like the woman he loved was in danger!The woman he loved?! Peter was shocked by the words that popped up in his own mind. How could he think so?! Was the man named Lucas Gomez not the same guy people called the Prince of Showbiz, the one who changed girlfriends as often as he changed clothes? There were even rumors saying that although this man had had numerous lovers in his life, in truth, he had never really loved anyone before.So, how could it be possible that Serenity was the woman he loved?— When Lucas got to the surveillance room, all t

But that did not deter Lynette. She had to show him how thoughtful she was! And so, she almost forced the glass of water into Lucas's hands, but once it was in his hands, it shook so violently that half of the water spilled out.Lucas was stunned. He tried his best to steady the glass in his hands, but the more he tried, the more frantically the glass shook. In truth, it was not the glass that was shaking, but his own hands!He stared blankly at the hands that were holding the glass. He had never been so nervous before. It was as if his body was… warning him, that no matter what happened, he must not lose that person!— Peter finally saw Serenity when he got to the police station. He had expected her to be injured in some way, but he was surprised to find her perfectly unharmed."I'm sorry I made you worry," Serenity told him apologetically. "I stepped on my phone, so I couldn't give you a call. I didn't remember your number either, so I had to get the SIM card from my phone and

His heartbeat intensified when his eyes met hers, almost as if his heart was about to jump out of his throat. It really felt like his body, his heart, and the blood in his body were all telling him how important she was to him!He could clearly hear his own heartbeat at the moment. He headed toward her one step at a time. It was all that he desired—to get closer and closer to her, to have a closer look at that pair of eyes, to see himself reflected in those clear and calm eyes of hers.As he approached her, he reached out his hands and quickly pulled her into his arms. Serenity was startled. She had never thought that Lucas would suddenly hug her like that in front of everyone. He was holding her so tightly now that she could not break free no matter how she struggled.In a low voice, she commanded him, "Let go of me, Lucas Gomez!""No," he murmured, enveloping his arms even more tightly now around her body, almost as if he was trying to embed her into his own body, "I won't let
