Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1431-1440

Eva reached the door of her room and swiped her door card to go in. She decided to take a shower first.

That was when her phone rang. She glanced at the number, and her heart tensed slightly. “Hello.”

“Back at the hotel?”

“Yes.”

“Come to my room.”

“Louie, it’s still afternoon. I want to take a rest,” Eva said unhappily. She didn’t want herself to be a cheap commodity that Louie could summon at will.

After that night, she would be away from the company and his people.

“We have to discuss the termination of the contract, which involves your subsequent share of the post-collection.” The man spoke in a low voice.

Eva choked for a moment.

Did I overreact?

And so, she answered, “I’ll come right after I shower.”

The shooting earlier made her sweaty and uncomfortable at the moment. Eva then went to the bathroom, took a shower, and blow-dried her long hair as she took a dress from her closet to change into it before she went out.

With her phone in hand, she went over to ring the doorbell of the next room. The door opened from the inside and revealed Louie, who was dressed in a white shirt and a pair of black pants as if he had rushed over from an important meeting.

At that moment, how he looked at Eva made him exude an aura of refined scum.

Eva also felt his masculine aura on his body, as if he was a hungry wolf, so she involuntarily flushed under his gaze.

“Come on in; I’m still working.” After speoking, Louie returned to the sofo ond leoned down to continue working on his computer. His slender fingers were topping owoy os he typed out the document.

Evo sot ocross from him os her goze involuntorily shot toword the mon. In the post two yeors, she hod been ovoiding him. Soon ofter, the ouro on the mon wos getting stronger, ond he exuded the colmness of on iron fist ond dictotorship.

At the some time, there wos no denying thot he wos even more foscinoting right now. Evo remembered thot when she first met him, she hod just gotten out of o smoll entertoinment compony ond hod joined onother compony. After three months, o merger crisis occurred in the compony.

However, Stordom Corporotion bought the smoll compony she wos working for. A week loter, oll the ortists went to o meeting ot the corporotion. Evo went oheod ond sow the young mon who wolked up to the podium of the meeting.

For the first time, Evo knew thot the president of the Stordom Corporotion wos so young. At thot time, oll the femole ortists on the stoge were in love with him, ond the otmosphere wos filled with odorotion. Even Evo, who hod o boyfriend, hod to odmit thot the moment Louie’s goze fell on her from the stoge, her heort fluttered.

“Come on in; I’m still working.” After speaking, Louie returned to the sofa and leaned down to continue working on his computer. His slender fingers were tapping away as he typed out the document.

Eva sat across from him as her gaze involuntarily shot toward the man. In the past two years, she had been avoiding him. Soon after, the aura on the man was getting stronger, and he exuded the calmness of an iron fist and dictatorship.

At the same time, there was no denying that he was even more fascinating right now. Eva remembered that when she first met him, she had just gotten out of a small entertainment company and had joined another company. After three months, a merger crisis occurred in the company.

However, Stardom Corporation bought the small company she was working for. A week later, all the artists went to a meeting at the corporation. Eva went ahead and saw the young man who walked up to the podium of the meeting.

For the first time, Eva knew that the president of the Stardom Corporation was so young. At that time, all the female artists on the stage were in love with him, and the atmosphere was filled with adoration. Even Eva, who had a boyfriend, had to admit that the moment Louie’s gaze fell on her from the stage, her heart fluttered.

Later, she met him again while arranging a job. She bumped into him in a corner of a corridor. She also heard that many artists tried some tricks to seduce and approach him, but he gave them the cold shoulder and didn’t give any of them to take advantage of him.

Her manager had nagged all day long for her to get closer to the president to get more resources. At a drinking party, the manager deliberately asked her to go over. At the table, Eva saw Louie again.

Louie was so young, but everyone toasted him and paid him compliments. At that time, Eva nervously toasted him as well. She still remembered his deep passionate gaze staring at her for a while.

It made her heart flutter. Finally, after everyone had left, Louie said he would send her home. Eva was flattered beyond belief.

After he sent her home that night, Eva saw him many times in the company. A year later, he confessed his love to her, and she told him she had a boyfriend whom she was dating seriously.

That year, she was twenty-one, and he was twenty-seven.

Although Eva rejected his advances, she still saw him on occasion. Louie drank on her behalf and protected her from the investors’ unspoken rules. He protected her in the biz to keep her from all harm. However, he didn’t leave her life either, or even…

Eva vividly remembered Louie pinning her down in the lounge at a company dinner as he kissed and hugged her. She was drunk at that time.

That was the time she regretted the most. If not for that time, she wouldn’t have wavered in her love for her boyfriend. Then, she wouldn’t have lost her heart and felt guilty for Tucker while she couldn’t control her passion for Louie.

In the blink of an eye, they had known each other for three years until Tucker passed away. She had then left him for two years. In the blink of an eye, Louie was now thirty-two while she was twenty-six.

Time flew by very quickly, just like a handful of sand.

Eva was unknowingly immersed in the memories for a while. When Louie held up a cup of tea to drink, she only returned to her senses to watch him finish his tea. Then, he frowned as his lips pursed tightly as if he had encountered some problem.

Eva couldn’t help but stare at his thin lips. She pursed her red lips as she thought of that one time in the dining lounge.

She recalled his crazy look.

As Eva was bored, she picked up a contract next to her. She flipped it and found that it was her termination contract, so she couldn’t help but read it.

“If there are any problems, you can bring them up, and I’ll have someone revise them,” Louie said as he raised his head.

“Okay.” Eva read it seriously because she didn’t want to be bound to Louie anymore.

His gaze fell on her body. The dress accentuated her slim waist, and her skin was fair. Her long hair framed a palm-sized face, showing off her beautiful, clean, and somewhat cold look.

However, the colder she was, the more Louie wanted to see her passionate side which was like fire. The stern face made him fall in love at first sight and lose his soul at second sight. As such, he did a lot of childish things. He would make everyone act for him and arrange for a drinking party just to meet her. Presently, the girl was right before him. She was within reach, but he still couldn’t get her.

“If I leave your company, I cannot work for similar companies for five years?” Eva uncovered a clause that worked against her.

Louie frowned as he muttered, “This is a clause for all artists. It’s a standard clause.”

“It’s too much,” Eva grunted lightly, but she didn’t care much as she had no intentions of filming after leaving the company.

“I’ll have someone change it for you,” Louie stated.

“Forget it. There’s no need to change it. I’m alright with it if I can terminate the contract.” Eva was bent on terminating the contract.

As such, Louie couldn’t help but be curious. “Where do you plan to go after you terminate your contract?”

“I’ll do what I want.”

“What do you want to do?”

“Haven’t thought about it yet.” After speaking and flipping through the contract, Eva picked up the pen on the table and signed it. Then, she handed it to the man across the table. “Please sign it, President Gilmore.”

Louie sighed, then took the contract and pen to sign his name sharply with his long and slender fingers.

“Where’s the company stamp?” Eva asked. It wasn’t enough to have his signature; there had to be an official seal.

“I don’t have the stamp with me. I’ll send it back to the office for you soon,” Louie commented in a low voice.

At that, Eva was getting annoyed. “Are you kidding me?”

“I am not a liar,” Louie swore on his reputation.

Hence, Eva could only trust him. At this moment, it was already dusk, and nightfall was fast approaching.

“I have arranged for dinner. It’s in my room.” Louie had planned to have a candlelit dinner with her.

When Eva thought of the imminent termination of her contract, she did not refuse it. So, she walked to the French window to look at the scenery. At the same time, Louie wrapped his slender and strong arms around her waist, and Eva immediately tensed a little. Louie lightly rested his sensual chin against the back of her head as he murmured, “Do you know how much I missed you in these two years? I visited your commercial shooting site several times but didn’t dare to disturb you. I was jealous when I saw you chatting merrily with other male actors, but I didn’t show it.”

“Do you know how often I’ve gotten drunk just because of you?”

Eva felt the arms around her waist tighten and the man’s lips were kissing her hair. Her heart couldn’t help but soften at that. When she heard his husky and deep confession, she almost cried.

She knew he had come by while she was shooting a commercial abroad. However, he didn’t know that after he left, she dropped the commercial and chased after him, only to look at his departing car. She was full of loss but had no one to tell.

However, she was afraid to show her feelings. It was because she was the one who said she didn’t want to see Louie for two years. He did it, but she didn’t.

There was another thing she had been worried about. In showbiz, almost everyone looked alike. A newcomer debuted under the title of little Eva, who was signed to Louie’s company. She wondered if he had ever taken special care of her.

“Do you like me?” Eva asked as she smiled bitterly.

“What do you think? Would I have waited five years for you if I didn’t like you?” Louie muttered frustratedly, his lips pressing against her ear.

“With all the female artists under you, there’s many for you to choose from. Why me?” Eva turned her face away, her ear tingling at his hot breath.

“Because it’s you. Only you are worth waiting for.”

“That’s because you didn’t get me yet. When you do, there’s plenty of young women for you to choose from.” Eva snorted as if she saw through Louie’s nature.

At this moment, the man bit her ear lightly. “What nonsense! I will do nothing but cherish you after getting you.”

Eva felt the pain for a few seconds before she turned her head to glare at him. “Are you a dog? It’s painful.”

“I’m a wolf that has been hungry for eight hundred years.” His gaze was deep and dark, and it was as if they were two cold pools trying to suck her in.

Eva flushed when she heard that.
