Love the Second Time Around

Chapter 50 Collusion

I guess Shannon has a point…

If my comic is well-drawn, I might become a famous cartoonist in this country.

After thinking about it, I realized it was quite possible for things to turn out far beyond what I could imagine.

Therefore, I entered into a contract with Flash and signed the non-disclosure agreement without hesitation.

If I disclosed any relevant news during the filming period, I would have to compensate the company. Besides, I had to keep the information about the comic confidential. They would only announce the simultaneous release of the drama and the comic when the drama premiered.

At the moment, they were making final preparations, and the filming was estimated to officially commence at the end of next month.

Luckily, I still had more than a month to settle things on my end.

First of all, I had to go home and inform my parents that I had divorced Julius.

Indeed, it was a wonderful day — my wishes were all coming true.

Shannon and I planned to have a celebration after signing the agreement, so we went to a café for a drink.

Suddenly, I received a message from Nicholas: I just finished my work and saw your message. Good to know that you’re fine.

I replied: Don’t worry! I get it. Look at you! You’ve been so busy. Take care and have a good rest!

He then responded: Why don’t you have dinner with me? It’s so pathetic to eat alone, and I’ll lose my appetite.

After reading his cheeky message, I could not help but chuckle.

Is he trying to act cute?

“Look at the silly smile on your face! Who are you chatting with?” Shannon stared at me with curiosity.

I raised my arm, beckoning her over. After she leaned toward me, I showed her my phone and whispered, “It’s your idol, Nicholas! He said he’ll lose his appetite if he has dinner alone.”
