Kiss me tender

Chapter 125

The sight of Junia drew some reporters' attention away. They let go of Melissa to besiege Junia. When they saw Colin and Junia walk out hand in hand, they took it seriously. It was said that Junia had hooked up with a super backstage man who was not only investing a movie for her, but also invited her to endorse many high-end brands. Everyone was guessing who was the backstage man. They didn't expect that Junia and Colin would come to the party hand in hand. They certainly wouldn't miss the opportunity to take photos and fight for the first news, thinking that the big secret backer finally came to light. But they didn't expect that it was Colin.

Colin behaved honestly. He was wearing sunglasses, holding Junia's hand, and allowed the reporters to take pictures. Some of the reporters dared to ask about the relationship between Junia and Colin and whether they were lovers. For the sensitive problem, Junia looked at Colin and she saw him smiling, neither angry nor disgusted. Perhaps he was in a good mood. Then Junia said to the reporters, "What do you think?" "What's the relationship between us?"

Junia said these words with a sense of complacency, just like a lady in her love when she was being asked about her private affairs. All the reporters were shocked and nodded meaningfully. Although Junia didn't admit it, it was more or less like she admitted it. So the reporters couldn't help taking pictures madly and their face seemed to be bright white under the cameras. Many entertainment group sent an announcement to inform the editing department and everybody felt that tomorrow it would be a big news.

Almost all the reporters on the set surrounded Junia and Colin. On the contrary, the reporters paid little attention to the stars. The other stars only looked at them, especially the female stars. All of them showed great admiration for Junia.

At the same time, Melissa was standing in the distance, just looking at them quietly. It seemed that Colin was in a good mood. He didn't avoid the media at all and took pictures of them conspicuously.

More proudly, Junia held Colin's hand and gazed at them with a coquettish smile, as if trying to show off her relationship with Colin.

In fact, Melissa was used to that. There were always many women around Colin, one after another. Very few people could stay around him for a long time. In other words, no one could make him fall in love except for Avril. So she was used to seeing him and Junia showing up in pairs in such a high- profile way.

Then Colin caught a glimpse of the set, and then at Melissa. His eyes fixed on her. Although he wore a pair of sunglasses, Melissa knew that he was looking at her quietly. His handsome face was carved in plaster, so beautiful and delicate, three-dimensional and hard. His nose was high and his thin lips were closed tightly. Nobody could guess his expression. Melissa couldn't tell his expression. She didn't know what he meant by that. Was he bragging? Or did he just want to make fun of her?

Although Melissa felt a little nervous being seen by him, she had straightened everything out after thinking over the past few days. She knew deeply that she and this man would never be together, both emotionally and family. In particular, Mrs. Fannie was there, she would definitely try her best to stop them, so she had given up.

Seeing that he looked at her, Melissa smiled at him sincerely and openly. Her smile would wipe out all the hatred and conflicts between her and him. At the same time, she would face him and the love in the past with peace.

But Colin frowned as he saw Melissa's expression with a grim smile. Then he turned around to talk with Junia intimately.

Feeling helpless, Melissa lowered her head and sighed.

Just as they tried to get closer and closer to Junia and Colin, a scream suddenly came from the gate of the film set. Then, as if being enchanted by the magic power, people around the gate rushed out and

the crowd surrounded the group of people who were moving here. When they were wondering what had happened, someone shouted, "Ah-ah - Eric - Ah-ah - Eric - Eric……"

The reporters, stars and staff on the set all got to know what had happened at that time. They also became thrilled. All the reporters, including those who had besieged Junia, completely ignored her. They left her behind and rushed out to watch Eric. This made Junia very uncomfortable. She curled her lips and looked very unhappy. But no one cared about her, even if she was a first-line star, she was nothing compared to the super star Eric. Moreover, it was the first time Eric acted in TV play in three years. They were here today to interview him with some explosive news. Eric was their main interviewee.

The news of the starting ceremony had been released before it was out. Eric's fans had rushed to the scene and blocked the way. As soon as Eric appeared, they followed him all the way. The gate of the film had been crowded with people along with there were so many reporters on the set, the crowd was choked. Although Eric's team had sent eight bodyguards, it was still difficult for them to break through and let Eric in. At last, the organizers called the hotel and asked more security guards to come over. It took a long time to let Eric in. The fans were also blocked outside the door. Only in this way could the ceremony be held in order.

First of all, the speech of the organizers and the speech of the investors, the director and the producer were delivered, followed by the ribbon cutting. And then the main character and the director and the investor would press the opening ceremony together. The rest of the time was for the reporters to ask questions. A line of stars, main actors, directors, producers and producers were standing on the stage for reporters to ask and question.

Eric only had little scenes in this play, but because of his reputation, he was pushed to the center by the director and the position of the leading role was taken. Then next to him were heroine Junia and the hero. Although Melissa played the supporting role, she didn't have much popularity as a new actress. Therefore, she was pushed to the far side.

Most of the questions were asked by the reporters to Eric. They were very curious about his sudden appearance in a TV series. They asked a lot of questions, sharp or personal. As a veteran, Eric was good at dealing with the media. Although he spoke with them frankly, he was able to give them a convincing answer. When thinking carefully about his words, Eric did a good job in doing what he was supposed to say and prevented the reporters from scheming.

Melissa kept silent and looked down at her toes, listening to the main character and the journalist laughing and joking. Then she suddenly looked up and saw Colin sitting in the chair of the CEO as investor, with a glass of red wine in his hand and sipping slowly. And at the same time, his sharp eyes fixed on her. Seeing she spotted him, he squinted at her with a charming expression on his face.

Melissa looked at him. She felt his gaze was dangerous. Why did he keep it on her? It seemed as if he had not let go of her completely. Instead, it made her feel uneasy and panic instead of less enthusiastic to her. Melissa was wondering if she should smile at him, but suddenly, Eric called her.

"Melissa……"

"Melissa?" Startled, Melissa almost thought she heard it wrong. She glanced at Eric and ignored Colin. Eric reached out his hand and beckoned, "Melissa, come over!"

Everyone turned to look at her, including the actors and reporters off the stage. Melissa stood still, eyes wide open.

Eric said again, "Melissa, come over!"

Feeling a sudden surge of excitement in her heart, Melissa carefully thought about what Eric meant to do this. He called her "Melissa" in front of so many people and even in front of so many media reporters, which made her flesh creep. At the same time, she was confused why he did it. He was going to make public his intimacy with her to the crowd. Or does he take any action after her words to him the other day? However, what did the action represent?

As Eric called her over and over again, under everyone's burning eyes, Melissa finally moved. She couldn't help but look at Colin who looked calm and drank the red wine gracefully. But his eyes were obviously more insidious than just now. He slightly narrowed, like a sharp sword, trying to pierce her.

In spite of his indifference, Melissa had to walk towards Eric gracefully and decently. Eric still reached out his hand to her, but she could only resist the embarrassment. She reached out her hand, but Eric grabbed it without mercy. They stood in front of the media, with their fingers crossed. People stared at them. Even Colin' eyes turned more murderous, as if a storm was on the way.

In everyone's eyes, Melissa seemed to be at a loss what to do, especially when she saw Eric hold her hand, which made her heating up. And she felt as if her hand was a piece of hot iron. But facing the media, she could only manage to smile and make herself as natural as possible. She knew clearly that no matter what intention Eric had, she would have to keep his hand. Especially in front of Colin. The better it was, the closer she and Eric were.

Eric said to the media, "It's the first time that I've acted on the stage with my junior sister today. I hope everyone will support her!" "If there is something wrong, please accept it."

The media journalists took pictures madly, which made Melissa not open her eyes. And a reporter among them asked Eric, "Is Melissa only your senior sister?" "What do you mean by being so intimate with her hand in hand?"

Eric replied with a casual smile, "It's her first time to attend such a meeting. Of course I should give her some encouragement. Besides, I think we'd better be close to each other."

The reporter certainly didn't believe it and asked, "Except for this relationship, do you really have nothing?" "For example, will the other become someone you like?"

The question was too straightforward, but Eric threw up his hands and replied calmly, "What else relationship do you think we have each other?" "Why don't you believe my words? Or do you actually want to hear me say that she is my lover so that you can go back to submit the paper?"

Everyone burst into laughter, thinking that Eric was humorous. Since the reporters couldn't get the truth from the inquiry, they were getting more and more confused by their ambiguous relationship, so they stopped asking for more time. Instead, they shifted the topic to acting and then they sensed something about romantic love again. A reporter asked, "I heard that you two would play a couple in the play and may also have part in a kiss scene?"

Startled, Melissa turned to look at Eric and asked quietly, "Well, is it true?" She knew nothing about the kiss at all.

Eric was confused too. He forced a smile and said, "Well, you should ask the director first."
