A Night with Her Cruel Mate

"You have a guest?" Nelson frowned. He originally thought that the media had fabricated a story about Terence and Jean. But now that she was here in his office, he began to suspect.

He wondered whether the news on Weibo was true.

Jean smiled at Nelson politely. She also came to Terence's office because of the news. She knew that he wouldn't check entertainment news, so it was necessary for her to tell him about it. And she had to clear her name of suspicion.

But she didn't expect Nelson to barge in.

"Why are you here?" Terence asked Nelson. He finally had time to talk to them after finishing part of his work. He frowned at Nelson and asked, "Didn't you say that you were so busy recently?"

"Yes, I am super busy, but I can't just sit still when the news about you is overwhelming on the Internet," Nelson said, annoyed. "What's wrong with you?"

"What do you mean?" Terence asked. As expected, he didn't know anything about it. He looked at Nelson in confusion, his face contorting into a frown. "What are you talking about? I'm not an actor."

"Well, I think you should ask this lady," Nelson snapped.

He glared at Jean.

Although it was the first time that he had seen Jean, he didn't like her. He felt like she was hiding something behind her innocent look.

Jean could feel the hostility radiating from Nelson's gaze, but she pretended not to notice. She looked at Terence with apologetic eyes and said, "Terence, I'm here today because I want to explain."

"What happened?" Terence's face hardened after realizing that something had happened.
