Chapter 1516 Hatred
A tinge of dejectedness flashed across Louie’s face, but he was still determined. He would never give up on the woman he loved.
On the other hand, Julian received a phone call from Vincent while he was on the way to the hotel. “Your brother is here. Do you know that?”
“Really? Where is he?” Julian was genuinely clueless. “He’s at Eva’s film set. His car is here.” “He’s there for Eva.”
“Eva left in her caravan.” Julian let out a sigh. “Alright, I’ll contact him.” After hanging up the call, he dialed a number, and the call was soon connected. “Hello?”
“Why didn’t you tell me you were coming, Louie?” Julian asked in a muffled voice.
“I’m just here for someone. I’ll be leaving tomorrow.” Julian persuaded him by saying, “There are some things that cannot be forced. Why don’t you learn to let go?”
“I know how to deal with my issues. Don’t worry about it.” Louie hung up the call after he finished speaking. On the side, Jessie looked at the man curiously. Seeing that he had kept his phone, she asked, “Is your brother here?”
“Yes.” Julian dipped his head. Jessie didn’t have the nerve to keep asking. Just as she speculated about why Louie was there, Julian directly told her about it. “He’s here for Eva.”
After becoming startled for a moment, Jessie figured out what was going on. She asked in a hushed voice, “Is your brother in love with Eva?”
“He’s been wooing Eva for two years.” Julian didn’t regard her as an outsider.
Jessie was secretly shocked. Louie was the president of Stardom Corporation while Eva was just an actress who worked for him. It was inconceivable that he still hadn’t successfully wooed her after two years.
Although she had never met Louie before, she reckoned that he must be good-looking as Julian since he was very handsome. “Why don’t you lend your brother a hand? Eva could very well be your sister-in-law,” Jessie suggested.
Julian shook his head. “There’s nothing I can help him with. This issue is between them.” Jessie was inexperienced when it came to love. To her, she either loved or did not love a person. Relationships shouldn’t be so complicated.
“Did anything happen between them?” Jessie asked. She was fond of Eva, so she hoped that the latter would be happy.
“Eva used to have a boyfriend, and they were together for three years. Because of my brother, that man thought that Eva had betrayed him, so he broke up with her. He then became agitated and got wasted. In the end, he was killed in a road accident. That’s why Eva can never forgive Louie,” Julian explained grimly.
Jessie was speechless for a while. She could understand that it must be heart-wrenching for Eva.
It was no wonder that a bright man like Louie couldn’t get together with Eva even after wooing her for two years.
Presently, Eva was seated in a caravan. She looked out the window and observed the stars. There were no lamplights on this path in the countryside as the moonlight filtered through the leaves. At that instant, she was shrouded in misery.
She closed her eyes as tears slid down her cheeks. A hint of melancholy appeared on her alluring face. She was conflicted and distressed deep within; the reason she had been focusing on work for the past few years was that she didn’t want to have any spare time to think about love-related matters.
She made the man promise that he could never see her for two years. Even if she had to go to the company for work, he had to go somewhere else. Now that their two-year agreement was due, she couldn’t avoid him any longer.
It was time she faced this issue head-on and dealt with it once and for all.
She let out a sigh. The images of her ex-boyfriend before his death flashed through her mind. In the last moments of his life, he grabbed her hands and roared, “You can never get together with him! Otherwise, I won’t let the both of you off even if I die!”
Presently, Eva felt cold all over her body as she closed her eyes. Her ex-boyfriend had sacrificed his life to stop her from loving Louie. She acknowledged that she had feelings for Louie back then.
Just when she was ready to talk about this issue with her ex-boyfriend, Louie came to her all of a sudden and got into an argument with her. Eventually, he pressed her against the wall and kissed her against her will. Unfortunately, her ex-boyfriend caught them red-handed on the spot.
