CHAPTER 36 : TH ENTERTAINMENT
After blurting out my subconscious thought I can’t help but feel so ashamed because who in their right sense says something like that?
“Mr. Hale I am…..” I was talking but I got interrupted.
“Get off me,” he says with a rough voice and as the petty person I am I wanted to get defensive but I suddenly felt something poking me underneath and I immediately jumped off him.
“I am sorry I didn’t mean to scare you, ” he apologized and when I looked at him I noticed his face was all red.
“No, I should be the one apologizing. I got too excited and unintentionally inconvenienced you so it’s my fault, ” I say but when I remember the disaster that happened earlier I can’t help but blush in embarrassment.
“So, about your signing with TH entertainment, when would you like to go”.
“I would like to go tomorrow, ” I answered hurriedly.
“Ok that’s fine I will ask someone to guide you,” he says and I decided to say what I have had on my mind since he looks like I can say whatever I want now.
“Can I go back to my apartment tomorrow?”.
“Did you need to get anything from there”?
“No, I mean I would like to move back to my apartment tomorrow since the scandal has died down. I don’t see a reason to be still living with you”.
“Miss Grey, is like you are forgetting something, you are stuck with me with no way out,” Bradley says smirking.
“What do you mean I am stuck with you,” I asked him, raising an eyebrow.
“You are going to be my future wife so of course, you are stuck with me”.
“Are you still on that talk I mean if you are getting married to me because of the stupid talk I had with you when I am small I don’t think Mr. Hale will be so petty to take that into account”
“Since Miss Grey decided to act petty then why can’t I be I am not marrying you because of the past, ” he says and I don’t why but what he said brought a feeling of relief to me.
“So why are you marrying me?”
“Because we are compatible,” Bradley answered, and if any of the Hale family heard that they may faint in shock.
What is this man saying, I pondered
“What kind of reason is that, “I asked raising an eyebrow
“And you have to take responsibility”.
“What responsibility are you talking about again?”I asked, getting annoyed by the opportunity groping monster in front of me.
“You have to take responsibility for touching my body that day in the room because no woman has ever done that to me, “he says and I started blushing when I remembered my perverted act that day and the dining room felt so small when I noticed Bradley had been staring at me all this while.
“So you are going to TH entertainment tomorrow,” he says changing the subject entirely and I can’t help but be grateful.
“Yes, but how can I get signed when the agency doesn’t show interest in me”.
“You are one of the most successful actresses in the country of course it’s going to be their good fortune if they sign with you,” I got so emotional when I heard Bradley say something like that but how can he say something so emotional like that and still keep a poker face.
“Then I think this successful actress will grace them with her presence, ” I say and my laughter filled the dining room. We kept talking about random things before we decided to retire for the night.
“Goodnight,” Bradley says after walking me to my door. This gives me the feeling of getting dropped at the entrance of my apartment after a romantic dinner date and I think what comes after that is a kiss.
“Gina, are you okay?”I heard Bradley ask and that’s when I snapped back to reality I found myself puckering my lips and I felt so embarrassed that I wished the ground would open up.
“Yeah, goodnight to you too Bradley, “I say immediately slamming my door behind me after I enter my room.
“Woah that was a dangerous move,” I say rubbing my chest. I felt my heart beating fast and I immediately panicked.
“Dear Heart, let’s be civil with each other since I am not messing with your daily activity. I hope you don’t get involved in a dangerous situation like this, can you stop beating so fast”I cautioned my silly heart too.
When I think back to the conversation I had earlier with Bradley I can’t help but feel so good because I will be returning to the screen even though it’s because of Bradley’s influence I didn’t feel a bit awkward about it because I was forced into a corner by someone’s influence so, it won’t be bad to use someone’s influence to climb back to the highest stand.
I decided to lay down on my comfy bed after the vigorous exercise I just finished doing. Even though I did nothing, my phone decided to ring at the time that I started drifting up from sleep.
“Who the f**k is that, “I cursed picking up my phone and saw that Olivia is the one calling.
“Why are you calling me this late b***h”.
“You don’t sound like someone sleeping yet and can you please stop cursing it’s so unladylike, “she says and I wished so much to smack her.
“Tori says you wanted to meet up today but you couldn’t reach me sorry I am not jobless like you so, I have to work to put food on my table, “Olivia says and I was shocked.
“What do you have to say Ollie”I say yawning and she could also sense I am not in the mood to bicker with her.
“I just want to inform you that I will be free tomorrow so we can meet up if you want”.Ccontent © exclusive by Nô/vel(D)ra/ma.Org.
“What to do? I won’t be free tomorrow because I will be busy with my contract signing, so you can go waste your time at home”.
“What contract signing? Are you signing up with another agency?” she asked if I could sense that her professional sense is kicking in and I can already picture what the headline of her story will be.
“TH entertainment, “I say and I heard her scream at the other end of the phone before she hung up on me.
“I could already guess what tomorrow’s headlines will be and that b***h couldn’t even congratulate her friend despite giving her an exclusive”I mutter drifting into dreamland…..
