Chapter 600 Being Rejected By Her
Chapter 600 Being Rejected by Her
The director had managed to create such a good opportunity for them. She could not waste it.
So she cleared her throat and coughed. Then she called him, "Stephen."
Upon hearing the voice, Stephen subconsciously replied and took the coat off his face.
However, when he made out who that was, his face turned gloomy. He snorted and then turned his
back at him, giving her the cold shoulder.
Laura felt so embarrassed.
The room was still in silence. She thought about it and felt that she had to fix this today.
Now that they were all here, it's time for them to make everything clear all at once.
She even became less worried thinking of that. She pulled a chair over and sat down. Then she said,
"Stephen, I know you hate me now, but we're still colleagues in the same crew, and I didn't do anything
to hurt you. Why do you have to give me that attitude?"
"Is it because I rejected you? So you're giving me the colder shoulders and ignoring me? I didn't expect
you to be such a petty man!"
As soon as she said that, Stephen suddenly turned over.
He sat up from the chair, looking at Laura with a grim face.
Laura raised her eyebrows.
It looked like she wasn't afraid of him at all.
Stephen was very angry, but there was nothing he could do.
In the end, he could only admit in anger, "No, I'm not a petty man, but you have to give me a reason! I
wouldn't buy the reason you told me last time."
Last time, to put an end to their entanglement, Laura told him that she had no feelings for him to stop
him from having any hopes.
In the past few days, Stephen was being angry at Laura out of his frustration and ego.
Deep inside, he was still a very confident man.
He knew that even if Laura didn't like him, it was highly unlikely that she would hate him, either.
As much as he liked her, he had been keeping a distance from her, trying not to do anything that may
arouse her repulsion at him.
However, Laura was so perfunctory that she hadn't even tried to make a nicer excuse.
Instead, she fed him with those empty words, trying to drive him away.
That was what made him mad.
Laura was taken aback when he heard those words. Then she laughed.
She was surprised about what Stephen was thinking.
She pondered and suddenly asked, "Then what do you think? Why am I not accepting you?"
Stephen frowned.
After a long time, he pouted, "How can I know what was in your mind?"
Laura chuckled and then sighed.
"I didn't lie to you, Stephen. You're a nice guy, and I'm taking you as a friend. That's all. I don't want to
lose a friend because of that. Do you understand?"
Stephen looked at her seriously. He was sure she wasn't lying this time. Then he said, "That means I
still stand a chance."
Laura was speechless.
Laura's head ached again. She stroked her forehead.
She shook her head and explained again, "Now that I've made my point that we're friends, that means
we'll never have the chance. I can't start a relationship with a friend."
"Why not?"
Stephen hurriedly said asked, and he regretted as soon as he heard himself.
She had been hiding his true feelings for so many days, but at this moment, his eagerness was
exposed.
He felt annoyed.
However, since he had already said that out, it was already too late to regret it.
He thought for a while and asked, "Do you have a boyfriend?"
Laura paused.
Stephen looked at her with an earnest face.
"I understand what you did if you have a crush, but if you don't, why don't you give us a chance? I
mean, maybe we'll be fit for each other. You know I'm a nice guy, which means you at least like me as a
friend, right?"
Laura froze there and didn't know what to say.
What Stephen just said was unexpected.
It felt wrong, but when she thought it thoroughly, it felt somehow right.
She was facing a dilemma, and after a pause, she mocked herself.
"Stephen, we're just not mean to be."
Stephen frowned.
He seemed very unhappy.
Laura sighed helplessly and had to tell the truth.
"Guess I have to tell you the truth now... I do have a boyfriend."
Laura had been struggling before she said that out.
Although Max had already thought that they were in a relationship, and she had agreed to start over
with him...
... deep down inside her heart, she still didn't quite value their relationship.
Therefore, she hadn't told anyone about it.
But this time, Stephen was so persistent. She didn't want him to get stuck, so she could only tell him
the truth.
Stephen was shocked upon hearing that.novelbin
He looked at her with disbelief.
"What did you say? When did you...? Why didn't you tell me?"
Laura didn't speak. She just looked at him quietly.
Stephen was taken back.
What was him to her?
He was nobody to her. Why would she tell him that she was in a relationship?
Hidden marriage and romance were common in the entertainment industry. Many celebrities'
relationships had lasted for years or even decades before their closest assistants or agents knew it.
Let alone that he was just a friend or colleague of hers.
Stephen couldn't help laughing wryly.
When Laura rejected him in the first place, he had thought about it,
However, he still found it so hard to believe although he had heard it on his own.
He looked at her and asked, "Who is he?"
Laura pursed her lips and did not answer the question. Instead, she changed the subject and said,
"Stephen, you deserved someone better than me. We're all gonna be happy. Don't waste your time and
energy on me."
Seeing her say that out so calmly, Stephen felt like her heart was stabbed.
She already had a boyfriend!
No matter how sad or unwilling he was, he shouldn't get into their relationship.
He didn't want his affection to become trouble for her.
Stephen took a deep breath and grinned a forceful smile. Then he nodded.
"Okay, I get it."
After a pause, he still found it so hard to give in. So he asked,
"Does he love you?"
Laura paused.
And then she slowly let out a smile.
"Yes, he loves me the most in the whole world."
Seeing the unconscious smile on her face, Stephen felt like his heart was being dipped in lemon water,
poignant and hurtful.
