Female Novel
Chapter 184: A Good Opportunity
In a suite on the top floor of Washington Hotel, Ryan quietly tiptoed out of a bedroom and closed thedoor gently.
In the living room, Luke and Roger were sitting on the sofa and watching TV.
Upon hearing the sound of the door closing, the two of them immediately turned to Ryan.
"Is Wendy asleep?" Roger asked.
"Yes!"
They had not gone back to Ensfield because they were afraid that the reporters would be waiting forthem there.
Therefore, Luke had instructed the driver to take them to Washington Hotel.
The three-bedroom suite was perfect for them.
One was for Wendy, one for Ryan, and Luke and Roger shared the third one.
As soon as they arrived at the hotel, Wendy went to take a bath.
Ryan accompanied her and remained by her side in her bedroom till she fell sound asleep.
With Wendy now out of earshot, Ryan gave vent to his bottled up anger.
His cold aura spilled out instantly.
He was like a red balloon that had been blown to its extreme and beyond and was ready to explode atany moment.
Consequently, the atmosphere in the living room became tense.
Luke shriveled.
‘'I knew it! If Wendy just cut her hand, Ryan would feel sorry for her.But this time, he remained silentand unemotional.It just didn't make sense.It turns out that he has been repressing his fury all the while.”
"Ryan, what's our next move?"novelbin
"Contact Carter."
Luke shot a glance at the wall clock.It was midnight.
"Now?"
"Yes!" Ryan said sternly.
Luke knew that Ryan was angrier than ever.Without further ado, he took out his phone and dialedCarter's number.At the same time, Ryan turned to Roger.
"Sir!"
"Contact Kane.You know exactly what the company has to do now, right?"
"Yes, sir!"
Roger then walked to the window and made a phone call.
Carter answered the phone.
As soon as the call was connected, Luke heard a barrage of curses.
"You idiots! I've told you a thousand times that Wendy bagged her role on her own strength.She has nospecial relationship with anyone in the cast.”
Damn it! You will only be satisfied if I speak to you in gibberish.
Luke was almost deafened by Carter's loud voice.He instinctively moved the phone away from his ear.
Just as he was about to speak, Ryan snatched the phone from him.
Meanwhile, Carter's anger hadn't been extinguished yet.He spewed vitriol without a pause.
Suddenly, Ryan spoke into the phone.His baritone voice was cold.
"This is Ryan Oliver speaking!"
As if the pause button had been pressed, Carter, who was still cursing, stopped abruptly.
After a few seconds, a faint sound of breathing came from the other end of the line, followed byCarter's uncertain voice.
"Mr.Oliver?"
"Yes, it's me!" Carter coughed.
"Mr.Oliver, how can I help you in the middle of the night?"
"Yes, there is something that you can do for me."
"Go ahead!" Ryan raised his head and glanced at Luke indifferently.
Luke pouted.
"Boo...hoo...Ryan! Now that you have Wendy in your life, you don't care a hoot about me! You neveravoided me in the past..." Ryan glared at Luke.
Luke looked at Ryan with frustration.
Seeing that he was unmoved, Luke covered his face and shed crocodile tears.He walked out of theroom reluctantly.
Ryan looked away and talked to Carter.Meanwhile, a parliament of reporters surrounded the building ofEris' apartment.
She lived in an apartment of three bedrooms and two living rooms.
Her home was in a plush suburb and the rooms were tastefully decorated.
The place oozed luxury.
Of course, it was a well-gated community estate.
These reporters were indeed capable.
They entered the community estate smoothly, but it was impossible for them to get into thebuilding.They needed a key if they wished to gain access to the building.
The reporters were not residents, so of course they couldn't go in.
However, they were extremely persistent and refused to leave, despite the chilly autumn wind that frozethem that night.
Upstairs, after being informed that a large contingent of reporters had gathered downstairs, Eris sprangoff the bed happily.Suddenly, Ryan spoke into the phone.
His baritone voice was cold.

Meanwhile, a parliament of reporters surrounded the building of Eris' apartment.
She lived in an apartment of three bedrooms and two living rooms.
Her home was in a plush suburb and the rooms were tastefully decorated.

However, they were extremely persistent and refused to leave, despite the chilly autumn wind that frozethem that night.
Upstairs, after being informed that a large contingent of reporters had gathered downstairs, Eris sprangoff the bed happily.
She asked Ana, "How many reporters are there?"
"More than twenty.Since they can't get in, they are surrounding the building."
‘'God always answers my prayers! Eris immediately got out of bed, adorned herself in a stylish outfitand applied light makeup.”
"Eris, it's already midnight.Do you still want to go out?"
"Of course!"
It was such a golden opportunity for her.
What a reckless waste of time if she didn't take advantage of it.
Eris wore her typical white dress and a beige coat.
Then, she pranced around the mirror and only left the apartment after she was sure that she lookedperfect.
Ana followed her immediately.
"Eris..."
"Order thirty bottles of milk tea and two boxes of instant noodles."
Ana was confused.
"What?"
Eris glared at her and said, "Just do it.Don't ask any questions!"
"As you wish!"
Ana attended to every detail of Eris' life.
She was familiar with ordering takeout.
Although it was the early hours of the morning, night life had only just began.
Ywood was a first-line city and takeout was available at odd hours.
Ana quickly ordered the milk tea and instant noodles.
Within minutes, the delivery man brought the milk tea and instant noodles.
"Eris..."
"Take two kettles of boiled water and get ready to go downstairs!"
"Okay."
Ana held a kettle of boiled water in each hand.
There were still the two boxes of instant noodles and thirty bottles of milk tea.She couldn't carry themall in one go.
Eris entered the elevator and leaned against it with her hands crossed.She clearly had no intention ofhelping Ana.
Ana struggled to take one thing at a time into the elevator.She pressed the button of the first floor andthe elevator descended slowly.
Eris lived in an elite community estate with only one resident on each floor.
As nobody else was boarding the elevator at that time, they reached the first floor very quickly.
Ding.
The elevator doors opened with a light sound.
A warm, gentle smile slowly spread over Eris' face.
She ambled out of the hall with a few bottles of milk tea in her hands.
After she swiped the key, the glass door opened.
The attention of the reporters was immediately drawn to her.
Since Eris was not wearing sunglasses or a mask, the reporters recognized her easily.
On seeing her, the feverish reporters immediately stood up from the ground.
"Eris!"
"It's Eris!"
The reporters rushed over.
Eris didn't dodge.
Under the light of the street lamp, her smile was as radiant as a sunbeam.
She said in a loud voice, "Don't worry, everyone!"
"Eris, we would love to interview you..."
"I know!"
Standing on the steps, Eris nodded and lied, "I was asleep.I just heard from Ana that you were patientlywaiting downstairs.Since it's so cold today, I asked Ana to prepare instant noodles and milk tea.Helpyourselves and get warmed up.
Then, we can go through the interview.
Her voice was soft and charming in the autumn night.
The reporters felt very comfortable with the hospitality she offered.
Eris added, "Don't worry.I promise I will make your time here worthwhile.Prepare all your questions andI won't hesitate to answer any of them."
