Hiding Behind Her Superficiality

Chapter 263

The director might not know about the others, but he would surely know about the Evil Wind Sect as it was a terror-stricken existence! As long the Evil Wind Sect were to hunt someone down, the person, no matter their identity, would be killed.

At that moment, the director didn’t know what to say. All he knew was that he had messed with the wrong person, and he couldn’t blame anyone but himself!

If I faint at this moment, will they let me go? Will I have a quick death after I faint? he thought. However, with all the people watching him, he couldn’t faint even if he wanted to.

“M-Miss Lynwood. Wait, no. I mean The Great Elspeth! Please spare my life. If you spare me, I will do anything you ask me to!” The director quickly scrambled to Elspeth’s side and grabbed her pants. His tears and snot almost got on her legs.

“Who do you think you are? Did you think you could make it out alive when you offended her?” Jaxon snorted coldly.

“Alright now. Stop scaring him, Jaxon. It won’t be fun if he were to faint because of your words,” said Elspeth.

Hearing her words, Jaxon cocked an eyebrow and smiled wickedly. “You’re right. However, why do you want this man? Did he do anything bad to you? If that’s the case, I can tell my men to kill him without you laying a finger on him.”

Monster! thought the director as he was paralyzed. Just as he saw the shadow guard was about to strangle him, he thought of something and exclaimed, “I have something for you, The Great Elspeth! Aren’t you enemies with Emma? I have a recording of her having sex with me in order to get this role!”

Elspeth wouldn’t be interested in any other female celebrities’ sex tape, but this was different. It was Emma’s!

At that moment, Elspeth smiled and raised her hand, signaling the man approaching the director to stop.

“Thank you for sparing me, The Great Elspeth! Honestly, I didn’t know this recorder would save my life! After all, I was just going to enjoy it myself, but it’s better than nothing.”

“Don’t ever tell anyone about what happened today. You got it?” Elspeth demanded coldly.

At this moment, the director was quick in his head. He knew what she meant and quickly nodded. “Of course, The Great Elspeth… I mean, Miss Lynwood. I didn’t go anywhere today except to buy beer and some fried chicken. Don’t worry, for I have a tight-lipped. If words were to spread around, you could kill me any time.”

Hearing his words, Elspeth nodded and glanced at one of the shadow guards beside her. When the shadow guard noticed her gaze, he knew what she was thinking and immediately hid in the dark.

“I’ll send someone to follow you. You won’t see him anywhere in sight, but if you were to betray me…” Elspeth trailed off.

Although she didn’t say about the consequences, the director knew.

“Don’t worry. I won’t tell a single soul about this. Can I go now?” The director gave her a blandish smile as his shirt was soaked in his sweat.

“There is still one more thing,” announced Elspeth as she squinted her eyes.

When the director heard her words, he stopped and asked, “What is it?”

“I want you to sell your movie to Luminous.”

As the director heard her words, he felt terrible. After all, he had chosen this movie after putting much effort into it. If he were to sell it to Elspeth, he would have a huge loss! However, he felt that his life was more valuable than losing some money.

“How can I sell it to you… It’s only natural if I give it to you as a gift!”

“I’ll buy it from you with the original price,” Elspeth commented faintly. She didn’t want to take advantage of him.

Hearing her words, the director breathed a sigh of relief and thought, I’m glad it’s not a huge loss.

“You can go now. I’ll send someone to sign the contract. If you regret it…”

“No, I won’t. I’ll be waiting for your arrival.”

After the director had flattered her, he wiped his sweat and quickly left the scene. He felt he had lost big time by messing with someone he shouldn’t because of Emma!

When Elspeth saw that the problem was solved, she said nothing and waved her men off. Just as she was about to leave with Lisa, Jaxon stopped her. “It’s been a long time since we last saw each other. Why don’t we find somewhere to catch up?”

Hearing his words, Elspeth frowned and replied, “I don’t think that we are that close to each other.”

“I know. How will someone as mighty as you look me in the eye? However, I still want to treat you to dinner for what you did for me in the past.”

Their encounter was quite the story. When they first met each other, she offered him a meal. At that moment, Jaxon was miserable. Still, he refused to accept her kindness due to stubbornness. AlthoughContentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

Elspeth had bought him pasta, he refused to have any.

“I don’t eat free food that others offer me,” he said.

“Stop acting cool when you are starving. Just pay me back next time.”

Elspeth was a young girl at that time and felt that Jaxon was hilarious.

“What’s your name? I’ll repay you.”

The girl raised the hem of her skirt and smiled. “My name is Elspeth. We’ll meet next time, so don’t worry.”

“Does that mean it was you who had given me those million that have been popping up in my bank?” asked Elspeth as she twitched her lips.

Although Jaxon didn’t say anything, a hint of embarrassment flashed across his eyes.

“Let’s just forget it. I see that you are living a good life. According to inflation, it’s fine if you give me a few million. I’ll let you off this time.”

Hearing her words, Jaxon found it interesting since she was the one receiving his money and bragged about it. It’s a shame that she has a fiancé, he thought.

“You can buy me dinner. However, let’s have some pasta since I am still full from earlier. Thus, we don’t have to eat something expensive. Moreover, stop sending me money. It makes me think that you are my sugar daddy.”

Elspeth felt it was suitable to end things with him with pasta since their stories began with it.

When Jaxon heard her words, he chuckled and said, “Sure. I’ll stop doing that. Since you want pasta… I remember that there is a restaurant that sells pasta just around the corner. It’s open right now. Let’s go.”

“Sure.” Elspeth nodded. “Why don’t you go home first, Lisa? Help me take care of the house.”

Since Lisa only listened to Elspeth’s orders, she would not interrupt them. Moreover, she wouldn’t have thought that if it was appropriate for Elspeth to be out with a man late at night, or the possibility of Callum getting mad, or whatsoever…

At that moment, Jaxon jumped on his dirt bike and handed Elspeth a helmet. “Here, wear this and hop up.”

After hesitating, Elspeth decided to wear the helmet and sat on Jaxon’s bike. Sitting behind him, she wrapped her arms around his waist and swore she had hugged him because she was afraid of falling.

After Elspeth had left, Lisa went home alone. Just as she arrived, she saw a black Maybach by the door and knew that Callum had returned. At that moment, her heart dropped. When she entered the house, she saw Callum sitting on the sofa, as expected.

“Where is Elspeth?” His voice was as cold as ice.
