Chapter 207 She Becomes A Burden
Chapter 207 She Becomes A Burden
After sitting for a while, Shawn found that it was already late and the two had almost finished their
makeup. He stood up and said, "It's late. I have to go back to the company."
Jessica frowned with unwillingness.
"Why do you leave so soon? Can you stay with me for a little longer?"
Shawn explained patiently, "I have something to deal with in the company. Besides, you don't have
time to talk to me when you are filming later. I'd better not disturb you."
Jessica nodded and agreed.
"All right! I'll see you out. You must come to see me tomorrow."
Shawn agreed. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Shawn and Natalia turned around and walked out. However, after they took several steps, a clear voice
suddenly came from behind.
"Wait!"
The two of them turned around and saw Natalia sitting on the chair. She frowned and looked at them.
"Shawn, I have something to ask you."
Jessica looked at her warily. "Shawn is in a hurry to go back to work. If you have any questions, you
can ask him next time."
She didn't know why, but when she looked into Natalia's eyes, she always felt that something bad
would happen.
So it was the wisest choice not to let Natalia talk to Shawn.
However, both Natalia and Shawn wouldn’t listen to Jessica.
Shawn paused and asked, "What's the matter? Go ahead."
Natalia smiled and stood up.
"Are you sure what you said to me last night is true?"
Shawn was shocked.
Natalia sighed with a look of loss on her face. "If it's true, maybe I have misunderstood you these days.
I want to say sorry to you here. Thank you for your reminder. I'll be careful in the future."
Shawn didn't expect that she would ask such a question.
Countless thoughts flashed through his mind, and countless emotions welled up in her heart.
Happy, moved, relieved, guilty, and lost... What a mixed feeling…
Jessica didn't know what they were talking about, but she had a bad feeling. She looked at the two of
them vigilantly and suspiciously.
"Shawn, last night... Didn't you leave after you went out of my lounge directly? Why did you... and my
sister..."
Shawn was stunned for a while. When he came to his senses, he explained in a hurry, "Oh, I
remembered something at that time, so I told her by the way."
Jessica's face changed.
"Why don't I know?"
"It's not something important. I didn't mention it to you."
"But..."
"Shawn." Natalia interrupted Jessica directly and smiled at Shawn. "Don't worry. I won't be like what
you are worried about. In return, I also remind you of one thing."
Noticing that she was serious, Shawn also immediately became serious and nodded, "Go ahead."
Natalia glanced at Jessica, who was in a panic.
With a mysterious smile on her face, she continued, "Although Miller Group has been reputable in Julio
for many years and has a firm foundation, the competition is fierce now. Even a slight mistake will make
you lose everything.”
"As the young master of Miller Group, I hope you can pay more attention to the people around you, and
don't let them become your burden in the future."
Shawn was shocked.
He looked at her in disbelief.
Jessica, on the other hand, suddenly screamed like a cat being stepped on in its tail.
"Natalia! What do you mean? Who do you think is Shawn's burden?"
Natalia glanced at her indifferently.
She put on a fake smile and said, "Why are you so nervous? I didn't say anything about you. You
should be confident in yourself. Why are you so eager to get yourself involved just because I
mentioned such a matter?"
Jessica was speechless.
Shawn pulled a long face and glanced at Jessica, with a touch of disgust and impatience in his eyes.
"I know. Don't worry. I will pay attention to this matter."
Natalia nodded, then didn’t say anything else, and left with Nancy.
After she left, the other two stylists realized that something would happen, so they also went out.
There were only Jessica and Shawn left in the dressing room.
Holding his arm, Jessica looked up at Shawn and explained nervously, "Shawn, please trust me. I will
work hard for you and won't let you down. Don't listen to her nonsense."
Shawn looked down at her, but the tenderness on his face was gone.
He said in a cold voice, "Of course I trust you. Besides, Natalia might not be talking about you. Why are
you so nervous?"
Jessica was rendered speechless.
How could she not be nervous?
She had just signed a contract with Century Entertainment, but then the scandal in the school broke
out. The endorsements and contracts she had had all been denied, and she had also paid a huge
fortune for breaches of contract.
Now, the rumor finally quieted down, and she got a role. However, just at such a critical moment for her
to reappear, she met Natalia again, whose performance on the film set had repeatedly suppressed her.
If she couldn’t take this opportunity for a comeback, or if she couldn’t perform well in this series, then
she would have no more chance!
This circle had always been cruel. There were more outstanding newcomers who just started their
careers every day. She hadn't been heard of for half a year. Half a year was enough to make some
people forget her.
If she didn't have a piece of work to prove her innocence and ability, perhaps more people would forget
her.
At that time, Century Entertainment, which had put a lot of energy and budget on her, would definitely
suffer a loss.
The company had already paid quite a lot for her breach of contract, and the board of directors had
long been dissatisfied with it. Now if she brought a loss again, as her boyfriend, Shawn would certainly
be scolded by the board of directors.
Although Miller Group was a family business, it was no longer a traditional family business after several
major funding.
Henry was still the largest shareholder of the company and held the final decision-making power, but
he couldn't cover up Shawn if the board of directors unanimously expressed their opinion against
Shawn, even if Shawn was his son.
Just now, Natalia had made it clear. Miller Group had many companies, not only Century
Entertainment, but undoubtedly Century Entertainment was the most profitable and the most promising
one.
If something went wrong here, it would be difficult for Shawn to win supports in Miller Group.
As Shawn's fiancée, Jessica definitely understood this.
That was why she was so nervous.
Shawn looked down at her and smiled indifferently.
"Jessica, we are about to get married soon, so we should trust each other and share weal and woe. So
you don't have to take her words seriously. I trust you, just as I trust myself. Do you understand?"
Hearing his words, Jessica finally felt relieved.
She forced a smile and said, "I won’t worry as long as you trust me."
After a pause, Jessica remembered what Natalia had said before she left. She asked in
embarrassment, "Shawn, then... What ... What did you say to her last night?"
