Chapter 35 Was Evan Chasing After Cherry?
Thomas didn’t expect that Suzy would be a fashion designer and a very capable one at that. He had a very complicated feeling at the moment. “You’re the boss of Starlight Pictures. Why do you still want to be a designer? Are you short of money?”
After he finished speaking, Thomas instantly denied this thought in his mind. Mr. Hughes’s woman can’t possibly be lacking in money!
Suzy shook his head and said, “No, I like fashion design very much. I joined the entertainment circle because of the Carters family.”
Thomas instantly came to a sudden understanding: Suzy wanted to become a designer again because of her hobbies!
Suzy asked, “Mr. Kenn, what do you think of my work? Can I sign a contract with CIRA?”
“Of course! Mr. Hughes thinks it’s good, and I’m not exaggerating. The two works you gave me can become the next season’s main products.”
Thomas wasn’t exaggerating at all. Suzy was indeed very talented in fashion design.
“By the way, does Mr. Hughes know you are Carl?”
Suzy shook his head and smiled. “I don’t want Evan to know.”
“Ah?” Thomas was stunned.
“Mr. Kenn, could you please keep this a secret for me? I want to give Evan a surprise.”
Thomas: “….”
He was in a dilemma.
At that time, Suzy liked designing, but it was different now. She entered the fashion circle, not because of her hobby but because she wanted to destroy Dreaming Pictures with her own hands. Only when her name Carl became popular in the design circle did she have the ability to identify that the two designs of Dreaming Pictures’s popularity were stolen from her.
However, Evan didn’t want Suzy to get involved in the Carters family’s affairs again.
Thomas didn’t think too much about it. He thought for a moment before he directly agreed to Suzy’s request.
Suzy continued, “Mr. Kenn, I hope you won’t let anyone know for the time being that I’m Carl. If I have the design plan, I’ll send it to you directly, and you and I can take over directly. Mr. Kenn, you don’t have to pay me. Is that okay?”
Thomas was stunned once more. “You don’t want money?”
Suzy nodded.
She valued money very much, but now, she would treat it as repayment for Evan’s kindness.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

After talking with Thomas, Suzy drove to Flora’s film set to visit the set.
Because of the heated discussion at the engagement party, Teresa had already resigned from the film. She had been replaced as the movie heroine by another popular actress… Cherry.
It was still time to rest. When Suzy walked into the living room, she passed by the lounge. Cherry was sitting leisurely on the sofa and eating. There was a lot of delicate food on the table in front of her. They looked at each other, and she smiled at Suzy.
For some reason, Suzy felt uncomfortable whenever she saw Cherry. Instead of greeting her, she went to the dressing room to look for Flora.
Flora was putting on makeup. When she saw Suzy, she asked, “I haven’t seen you for a few days. Did something happen at the party a few days ago?”
Suzy shook her head.
Flora drove her assistant and makeup artist out of the room and held Suzy’s hand, asking, “When I left the party that day, I saw Evan come to see you. You two must have had a special relationship, right?”
Flora was no fool. Suzy had fallen out with the Carters family. Likely, someone was helping her purchase those stars.
“Yes.” Suzy did not deny it.
Pursing her lips, Flora was at a loss for words. She then looked at Suzy and said, “Miss Carters, I don’t know if I should tell you something.”
“Just tell.”
Flora said, “Evan left just before you arrived.”
Suzy was speechless.
“He came here secretly, but I accidentally saw that he and Cherry… seemed to have a special relationship.”
Suzy instantly came to an understanding when she heard this.
When Suzy saw the gifts on Cherry’s table, she guessed they were from Evan: Were they just friends?
Suzy smiled nonchalantly. “All right, don’t overthink it. Mr. Hughes and I are just good friends.”
Flora: No way!
Suzy picked up the lipstick in front of the makeup mirror and played with it. She couldn’t help asking, “How is Cherry?”
“She’s very serious about film. She’s very pretentious when she doesn’t have time to rest. She’s like a little princess but doesn’t seem to have bad intentions.”
Flora’s assistant, Nimo’s voice, came from outside. “Miss Krane, it’s time to shoot.”
“Okay.”
Instead of leaving the set, Suzy followed Flora to the filming scene outside. They sat by Mr. Vincent’s side and talked about the past. After that, they watched everybody’s film together.
After the video was successfully filmed, Mr. Vincent said with a smile, “I owed Earl a favor at that time, so I asked Teresa to play the heroine. Cherry’s acting seems better and more aligned with my hostess’s setting. What do you think?”
Suzy: “Just-so-so!”
Mr. Vincent was speechless.
Cherry, who was passing by from behind, was extremely surprised.
She was about to snap back, but the second episode was about to begin, so Cherry had no choice but to shoot first.
The shooting didn’t go well. Cherry forgot what to say. Mr. Vincent asked her to stop. Cherry immediately looked in Suzy’s direction and said unhappily, “Why are you staring at me?”
It was normal for people to stare at a film, but the look in Suzy’s eyes was extremely strange. Cherry looked at her and forgot her lines for a moment.
Suzy pursed her lips and said, “I’m sorry, Miss Sherman. You’re so beautiful that I accidentally obsessed with you.”
Cherry: “…”
How could Suzy be stunned by her beauty?
It was as if she owed Suzy millions. She carefully thought that she had no conflict with Suzy.
When she was about to speak, Suzy greeted Mr. Vincent, looked at Flora, and left the set directly.
After getting in the car, Suzy fiddled with her hair gloomily. She had only been away from Evan for an afternoon, but he had already come to pick up other women!
She thought about it carefully. Evan said that he and Cherry were just friends, but why did she feel they were not just friends? Could it be… that Evan was pursuing Cherry?
Upon realizing this, Suzy became even more agitated.
She tried to suppress her emotions and was about to drive away when the phone beside her rang.
It was Evan calling.
A few seconds later, Suzy picked up the phone slowly, and Evan’s deep voice came from the other end of the line.
“Where did you go this afternoon?”
Suzy pondered for two seconds before saying, “I wandered around. I was going to look for you, but Alan told me you weren’t at the company.”
Evan said, “I went out to discuss cooperation and just came back.”
Suzy rolled her eyes: Talk about cooperation? Nonsense!
Evan asked again, “What do you want for dinner?”
“I have something to do tonight, so you eat yourself!”
After saying that, Suzy hung up the phone directly. She threw the phone aside and started the car to leave.
On the other end of the line, Evan was speechless.
At this moment, Alan walked in and asked, “Mr. Hughes, you have a social engagement with Mr. Miller tonight. Do you still want to cancel it?”
Over the past few days, Evan’s social activities had been postponed, and he would accompany Suzy for dinner after work.
Evan thought for two seconds and said, “Don’t postpone it. I’ll be at the dinner party tonight.”
