Chapter 215 Difficult to Get Along With
Seeing the astonishment on Rachel's face, Doris Li couldn't help laughing, saying, "Miss Rachel, don't worry. I'm not here to blame you. I just want to tell you something."
"Go ahead!" Rachel regained his composure and looked normal.
Doris smile and said, "Here's the thing. I think Chester has told you about our relationship. I'm afraid you might misunderstand us, so I come here to inform you. In fact, we are just friends. There is nothing else between us.
I have a loved one and he has a lover. We were forced to be together by our parents, so we had to discuss this plan together. That is to fool the elders by pretending that we are dating.
He is a little listless these days. I think it's probably because of us that you begin to distance yourself from him. So I come here to clarify it myself. I hope you can understand that this is only an expedient for us."
After hearing what Doris said, Rachel felt a little helpless and said honestly, "Miss Doris, I know you are kind, but I'm just friends with him."
Shrugging, Doris said, "Anyway, you haven't gotten married yet. He has the right to pursue you. Don't take it as a burden. He is a good man. He looks handsome on the surface, but in fact he is sensitive and afraid of being rejected by you.
He talked a lot about you with me. He really likes you so much that I don't want you to misunderstand him. The objection of our parents is only temporary. As time goes by, they will definitely agree."
With a smile, Rachel said, "Thank you for your kindness, Miss Doris. But it's up to us to solve the problem between us!"
Doris stopped after hearing this, stood up, smiled at Rachel, saying, "Miss Rachel, as long as you know what to do, I'll leave now."
After seeing off Doris, Rachel thought for a while and felt that she really needed to rely on this opportunity to become famous again, but she didn't want to owe too much to Chester.
So she picked up her phone and called Chester.
On the other side of the phone came the surprised voice of Chester, "Rachel? Miss Doris has told you everything?" NôvelDrama.Org content rights.
Stunned for a moment, Rachel explained hurriedly, "I'm calling to talk about the contract with you, not about personal affairs."
"Okay, go ahead." Hearing this, Chester's tone became serious.
"I want to change the contract." after thinking for a while, Rachel said, "First of all, I really thank you for giving me this opportunity, and I really need it. Secondly, I don't like to owe anyone, so I decide to play this role for free without any reward!"
As soon as this sentence came out, Chester on the other end of the phone seemed to be extremely shocked and could not speak for a long time.
With the phone in her hand, Rachel took a deep breath and continued, "I'll play this role for free. If I can earn a lot of money for you, I'll pay you back. And if I can turn the tables by this movie, I will also earn my reputation. It's not a loss!"
After being silent for a while, Chester said, "Since you have made up your mind, it doesn't matter what I say, right?"
Rachel chuckled and said, "Only by doing this can I accept this role with ease. It's not easy for you to offer me a chance. I have got nothing to repay you, but I can at least accept this in this way."
"Okay, I'll go to your studio to change the contract another day." As soon as he finished his words, Chester hung up the phone.
At this time, Doris knocked on the door.
"Come in!" Chester sat up straight and said lightly.
With a smile on her face, Doris came in.
"What? Did your goddess make you disappointed again?" Doris teased.
Chester lifted his eyebrow, asking, "What's the matter? Tell me!"
Doris sat opposite him and said with a faint smile, "I just saw her. She is indeed a beautiful goddess. She looks stunning no matter at what angle I look at her!"
"Let's get down to business." Chester interrupted her coldly.
"Okay," said Doris seriously. "I find that she is a very principled person, but obviously, she is not interested in your pursuit. Poor Mr. Chester! You are in a one-sided love!"
But Chester didn't take it seriously and said, "The more she has no interest in me, the more interested I am in her! I pursue her. In addition to loving her, I am also willing to accept all the challenges she gives me! It didn't matter if she does not like me at all. I don't want her to love me, as long as I continue to love her!"
"Ha-ha," a trace of surprise appeared in the eyes of Doris. She couldn't help but tease, "Mr. Chester's love for Rachel is like the surging river. I admire you very much!"
Chester gave her a cold glance, asking, "I admire you as well. Your love with Mr. Kylo is also unforgettable. I envy you!"
With a serious look on her face, Doris cleared her throat and said, "We have to act properly. We can't let the elders suspect us, or both of us will be doomed."
"Got it." Chester nodded.
Rachel had thought that this way would make Chester retreat from difficulties, but she didn't expect that it would arouse his stronger fighting spirit.
He would do whatever she asked him to do, except for the matter of loving her. He would never flinch.
On the second day, Chester came to find Rachel to change the contract. She happened to work in the studio, so she met him in person.
He handed the new contract to her.
Rachel browsed it and frowned immediately, "Didn't we make a deal? I'll shoot this movie for free without taking any salary."
Randall, who was sitting not far away and staring at the computer, frowned slightly when he heard that.
Chester smiled, stating, "No, thanks. You work hard for the movie. How can you shoot for free? In order to make you feel at ease, I have reduced your pay to the treatment of a female supporting role. Don't worry."
However, Rachel insisted, "No, just do as I said!"
Chester also insisted, saying, "No, if this is spread out, people will think that our company mistreats artists! Besides, your studio will need a lot of money in the future for its development. You can't support
it with your savings all the time. You will need to use money in so many places."
Before Rachel could say anything more, Randall came over.
"Rachel," said Randall indifferently, "Mr. Chester is right. Our studio will grow stronger in the future, and there are many places to spend money. Now you are the only source of income for the studio. Think more about everything for the studio, please."
Rachel looked at him and sighed. She never cared about money, and Michelle was in charge of her money.
Randall said this probably because he was afraid that they would run out of money to support the studio. Or was it because there was not much money in the account?
Without saying anything more, Rachel picked up a pen and began to sign the contract.
"In this way, you look like a boss," said Chester jokingly as he picked up a pen to sign the contract. "Now you are not only an actress, but also a boss. The nature of a businessman is to chase profits. It seems that you are not a qualified businesswoman."
After signing the contract, Rachel gave him a calm look and said, "I really don't know how to repay your support."
With a playful look on his face, Chester said, "The best way for you to repay me is to become famous and take over a few more movies I invested, which will help me make a fortune!"
Rachel could not help but laughing. "Thank you for your good words!"
When they met again, Rachel found that Chester had lost a lot of weight. It seemed that his parents had forced him very hard.
To avoid arousing suspicion, she asked Rachel to continue the conversation with him, and she went to do something else.
Chester was most concerned about the accidents that had happened to Rachel before, and kept asking Randall about the details of the cases.
Randall patiently answered his questions one by one.
In the end, Chester made a suggestion, "This movie is very important. I want to re-pack Rachel and create a new image for her. What do you think of making Rachel and Joe a couple?"
Hearing this, Randall's eyes flashed with excitement. "What's your idea?"
"The Jiang Group has many products that need spokespeople, so I want to invite Rachel and Joe to shoot the commercials together!" Chester stated, his eyes shining.
Randall frowned slightly, replying, "As far as I know, Joe is not an easy-going person. Will he agree?"
