Chapter 249
“Tell him to come in.”
Putting aside Zane’s dirty recreations, he was Riverfront Entertainment’s top star. It was understandable for him to ask for a meeting with his new boss.
The secretary did as she was told.
Not long after, Zane arrived at Luna’s office.
“Please have a seat.”
Although Luna was disgusted by those matters, she pretended not to know anything and went straight to the point. “What did you come to see me for, Zane?”
“It’s like this, Ms. Crestfall.” Zane looked at Luna with a smile he thought was very charming. “I’d like to invite you to dinner at the Royal Dragon tonight at 8 and discuss some issues with this script.”
Luna had to admit that Zane was indeed very handsome, and his voice was quite soothing to listen to
However, she was not a superficial woman. She had no interest in him, especially after learning about his true colors. Nevertheless, she had no reason to refuse. Sure, I’ll go over tonight.”
Soon, it was night.
Luna arrived at the Royal Dragon Hotel as promised.
Andrius did not come, but Athena followed her.
Zane acted very gentlemanly and greeted her at the hotel entrance. He brought Luna to the room and personally pulled out the chair for her.
“Please sit, Ms. Crestfall.”
Luna sat down but frowned slightly.
The room was lit with pink mood lights, and there were candles as well. The dining table was also heart- shaped with a potted lily on it. The overall decoration was so in–her–face flirtatious that Luna was somewhat disgusted.
Zane said, “Speaking of which, I’m also the top star in Riverfront Entertainment. How… do you intend to package and build me up, Ms. Crestfall?”
Luna had considered this issue a long time ago.
She explained it on the spot. She started with the new movie, then talked about what kind of persona he would take on, and what kind of film and television resources she would give him….
She spoke eloquently.
Unbeknownst to her, Zane was not listening at all. Instead, he took advantage of when Luna was carried away in her speech to secretly slip a pill into her wine when refilling her glass.
“That’s the overall gist.” Luna felt thirsty after speaking and picked up the glass to drink it.
“Ms. Crestfall, wait!”
Just then, Athena, who was standing outside, came in and stopped Luna in time. “There’s something wrong with this wine. He’s drugged it.”
Luna’s expression instantly changed. She remembered those photos and instantly felt fearful. She stared
at Zane coldly, waiting for him to give an explanation.
“Nonsense!” Zane was angry. “Why are you saying that? Do you know the impact such slander will have on an artiste? Can you bear the responsibility for the consequences?”
He spoke righteously, showing power while feeling guilty inside.
Those not in the know would really think that he was innocent and being framed.
Athena suddenly sneered and glanced at his manager, who was eavesdropping from the side. She immediately grabbed the glass of wine and poured it down the manager’s mouth, holding the latter’s head up for her to drink.
“Glug, glug…”
She finished the whole glass.
The manager was stunned and pointed to Athena to scold her, but suddenly, her vision went dark, and she fainted on the ground.
“What do you have to say now, Zane?” Luna immediately flew into a rage, questioning loudly with her beautiful eyes widened.
“Luna…” Zane suddenly changed his expression, looking gentle and charming. His eyes were filled with affection, and his voice was full of magnetism. He said lovingly, “I have nothing to say about loving you.
“As you’ve seen, I drugged your wine, but what you don’t know is that… I’ve suffered since the first time I saw you. You’re all I can think about, day and night.
“When I open my eyes, I see you, and you’re still there even when I close my eyes. Everything I say and do reminds me of you!
“I love you
