Ice-Cold Ceo, Crazy Love

Chapter 252

The next day.

Thomas woke up to find himself alone.

He was momentarily disoriented, but then the memories of the previous night flooded back in, like a tidal wave

It all felt like a surreal dream.

It was hard to find the real feeling.

Was last night real, or just a figment of his imagination?

Could it really be a dream?

As Thomas pulled back the covers, the sight of a small bloodstain on the bed made his heart skip a beat.

It wasn’t a dream.

Last night, he and Theresa had really…

A flicker of joy crossed Thomas’s heart.

This intimacy meant he now shared a close bond with Theresa. Perhaps there was a possibility for them after all.

Right now, Thomas couldn’t wait to see Theresa.

“You’re up.” Theresa’s voice rang out.

Thomas hurriedly turned around and saw that Theresa was already dressed neatly. At this moment, she was looking at him calmly.

“Theresa.” Thomas’s voice softened. “About last night.

“What happened last night? I don’t know what you’re talking about,” Theresa said.

Thomas was taken aback.

such accidental circumstances.

But what did it change?

it was just an unexpected incident.

Thomas had someone he liked, and she had no intention of dating.

They were simply not meant to be. Why force something that wasn’t there?

Rather than waiting for Thomas to awkwardly address the situation, she decided to take the initiative, sparing

them both any embarrassment.

Thomas’s eyes changed slightly. “How can you not remember what happened last night? Are you saying you’ve used me and now you don’t want to take responsibility?”

Theresa replied, “I’m sorry, I was drugged yesterday, and that’s why… If you want any compensation, just ask. I’ll do my best to satisfy you.”

Thomas was speechless.

Compensation?

Was that what he wanted?

Theresa spoke earnestly, “I’ll do anything within my power to make it right.”

Thomas opened and closed his mouth, hesitating.

What if he expressed his wish for them to seriously consider a relationship?

Seeing Theresa’s calm demeanor, Thomas remained silent.

Theresa was clearly avoiding him, and it seemed unfair to press such a request on her now.

Forcing a smile, Thomas said, “I didn’t lose out last night. Let’s just pretend nothing happened.”

“Alright.” Theresa nodded.

Thomas lingered silently for a while before saying. “Then, I’ll leave first.”

He turned to leave.

But he deliberately walked slowly.

The short distance to the door took him over a minute.

He hoped that Theresa would call him back.

But the expected voice never came.

Thomas left quietly, his spirits lowered.

Last night’s events seemed like a fleeting dream.

It was time for him to wake up.

After Thomas left, Theresa looked complexly at the closed door..

It took her a while to withdraw her gaze and start tidying the disheveled bed.

She felt both annoyed and relieved about last night.

Annoyed that she had initiated such an encounter with Thomas.

Fortunately, Henri did not succeed.

However, knowing Henri’s cunning nature, she worried he might not let the matter rest and could take drastic

actions.

Even though she loved the script and wanted to act in it.

But now.

It seemed she might have to give it up.

Theresa took a deep breath.

Chapter 252

Theresa decided to talk to Mr. Witt about quitting the production. She figured her savings should cover any breach of contract fees.

Theresa stood alone by the window for a while, then headed to the set when it was time.

From a distance, Theresa saw Mr. Witt and approached him. “Mr. Witt, I…”

“Rose,” Mr. Witt said with a smile, patting her shoulder, “Don’t stress too much. I was too harsh last night. Relax and focus on your performance later.”

Theresa managed a wry smile. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.

That was typical of Mr. Witt.

He was usually smooth–talking and good at socializing.

But he became uncompromising once filming started.

Theresa had no complaints against Mr. Witt. She knew Mr. Witt was strict about the work, not personal.

Mr. Witt had no idea that Henri was backed by such a person.

Theresa took a deep breath, about to announce her decision to quit the play.

All of a sudden, Mr. Witt’s phone rang.

“Just a moment, Rose,” Mr. Witt said, answering the call.

“Ah, Henri,” Mr. Witt spoke cheerily.

Theresa’s expression changed slightly.

She didn’t know what Henri would say to Mr. Witt!

However, it wasn’t long before Mr. Witt’s face turned sour.

“What, you’re quitting?”

“In the middle of winter, where am I supposed to find a new lead actor?”

“The contract has been signed. If you resign, you will have to pay the penalty fee!”

“Henri, aren’t you worried that your reputation will be affected?”

Mr. Witt initially tried to reason, but Henri’s attitude must have been very firm.

Eventually, Mr. Witt lost his temper.

“Fine, quit then. But remember, you’ll never be in any of my films again.” Mr. Witt hung up angrily.

N

Theresa, having overheard, asked, “Mr. Witt, did Henri quit?”

Mr. Witt was visibly upset. “Just quits like that, I’ve never seen someone so irresponsible! Rose, I’m sorry, but you’ll have to do solo scenes for now. Give me a few days to find a replacement male actor.”

Theresa’s eyes lit up.”

With Henri quitting, there was no need for her to leave the play.

Theresa quickly agreed. “Okay, whatever works.”

Mr. Witt patted her shoulder. “Take the day off today. I need to find a replacement.”

“Sure. I’ll use the time to study the script more,” Theresa responded eagerly.

Mr. Witt nodded and hurried off.

The sudden resignation of the lead actor posed a big problem for him.

Fortunately, since the filming had only just begun, reshooting the few scenes wouldn’t be a massive loss.

However, any further delays would rack up considerable expenses, making it difficult to explain to the investors.

His priority was to find a new lead actor.

Mr. Witt hurried to make phone calls one by one.

In the room.

Henri glared at his bruised and swollen face in the mirror, a dark glint in his eyes.

Thomas had dared to attack him so fiercely.

The worst part was his carefully maintained nose, now askew.

Henri had always boasted to his fans about being all–natural, If he showed up on set looking like this, his lies would be exposed.

Even without the threat of those photos Thomas took, Henri likely couldn’t continue filming in this state.

After being beaten like this and paying a penalty fee, Mr. Witt still dared to get angry with him. The more Henri thought about it, the angrier he became. He almost hated everyone.
