When Love Breaks (Josephine)

Adam's jaw dropped. "Damn! Are you for real?"

"What do I gain from lying to you? But don't release this yet. This is the ace up my sleeve. When the time is right, I'll deliver a fatal blow to Josephine."

Nadine flashed an evil grin.

"This time, publicizing photos of us kissing will be sufficient."

Adam nodded his head eagerly. If she were really pregnant, there was a high chance that she would climb to the top.

When that happened, he would rise with her.

Therefore, he had to make sure he worked with Nadine.

Back in the other room, Zayn was smoking a cigarette while scrolling through his messages.

The last message in his conversation with Josephine was a message he had sent at 5:00 pm, asking her when she would arrive.

She still hadn't replied since.

He was confident that she had seen the message, but she didn't reply.

At the thought of it, he puffed out a cloud of smoke, hesitating whether to call her. Since they couldn't meet during the day, meeting at night would be better.

It was best if he could convince her to stay the night.

He was confident that if he could spend the night with her, he could make her fall head over heels for him once again.

Before he could call her, the door was swung open. Nadine entered the room.

His eyebrows furrowed tightly. "What are you doing here? The reporters outside are suspecting we have something going on. How dare you get close to me? Get out."

"Why are you so mad?"

Nadine leaned against his body, wrapping her arms around his neck.

"The reporters are all outside. They can't come backstage. What are you afraid of?"

He puffed out some smoke and said, "I'm not afraid. I just don't want to stir up gossip at this critical moment.noveldrama

Nadine drew circles on his chest. "What critical moment? Doesn't having gossip during the press conference help with the movie's promotion?"

Zayn let out a cold snort. "It's helpful for you, but what about me? You know that the shareholders have been pressuring me. If the gossip causes the share price to plunge, my reign as chairman would be over.

"The funds haven't been fully transferred, and the movie only started shooting.

What do you think would happen if I lose power?"

Wouldn't he just earn a little less? Why did that matter?

With his current assets, he'd have enough money for the next ten generations. How much money did he need to be satisfied?

Nadine wasn't falling for it. When she noticed Adam was already positioned outside the door, she approached Zayn. "Zayn, it's been a while since we've been intimate. Don't you miss me?"

As she said that, she removed the cigarette from his mouth, stood on tiptoes, and leaned in to kiss him.

Before her lips could touch him, Zayn blocked her with his hands. He pushed her away and distanced himself. He lit another cigarette. "I'm not in the mood. Stop bothering me."

How could he be in a bad mood when the movie's shooting was about to start? Wasn't he in a bad mood because Josephine had been ignoring him?

Nadine's face darkened after being rejected. Fine. Since you're not in the mood, I won't bother you. When you feel better, come look for me. Zayn, whenever you need me, I'll be there."

She walked out with a pitiful look, closing the door behind her.

The moment the door closed, she rushed toward Adam. "Did you get it?"

Adam grinned. "Even though you two didn't kiss, in my camera, the two of you were deeply kissing."

"Let me have a look."

Nadine looked at the camera. Sure enough, judging by the photo, they were in the middle of an intense kiss.

"Good job."
