Never Too Far Novel

Chapter 1441-1450

Julian quickly lowered his body and moved his ear closer to her lips. With that, Jessie decided to be honest with him. “I was considering what I should do if you unexpectedly fall in love with someone else,” she explained.

That made Julian’s heart ache a little. Ignoring the fact that there were crew members nearby, he drew her into his embrace and exclaimed, “What nonsense are you thinking of?”

Jessie quickly pushed him away with her small strength while terrifyingly signaling to him that there were crew members nearby.

Julian found her amusing while watching her cautious behavior, but at the same time, he respected her as well. This is her first film. I’d better let her finish her work with peace of mind!

Meanwhile, back at the hotel, Eva was irritated by what had happened on the Internet. Her manager had taken a flight and rushed over as this matter had severe ramifications.

After much deliberation, Eva reasoned that she should obtain the termination contract before considering anything else. After all, she couldn’t have allowed herself to sleep with the man for nothing! Thus, she stood up and exited her room before going to the room next door and ringing the doorbell.

Within seconds, the man inside the room answered the door. When the door was opened, she saw him naked, with only a bath towel wrapped around his lower body. His perfect figure was exposed right in front of her eyes.

“You…” Her cheeks flushed as she gazed at his toned abs before she turned away in embarrassment. “Put on your clothes. I’d like to speak with you about something.”

“Come in first.” Julian chuckled deeply.

And so, Eva entered the room. However, the man behind her wrapped his arms around her waist before she could take more than two steps. His manly breath, combined with a faint scent of body shampoo, made her nervous as she felt a current rush through her body.

“You… Let me go.” Eva struggled to free herself from his grip.

“Didn’t you have a good time last night?” the man asked, his voice hoarse.

However, she purposefully avoided discussing what happened last night as she stated, “I’m here for the contract termination.”

“Eva…” the man began calling her lovingly, his voice enticing.

Eva wanted to push his hand away, but her strength prevented her from doing so. She could only turn around to face him, but once she did, she was met with his deep, fiery gaze. Seeing that, she knew that things were about to become dangerous.

She was now kicking herself for walking into his room voluntarily.

“I… Forget it. I’ll go back now.” Eva spoke as she struggled to break free from his embrace.

But to the man, she was like an innocent rabbit walking right into his trap. He would not allow her to leave!

He carried her in his arms the next second, prompting her to mutter angrily, “Leave me alone, Louie…”

“I can’t, and I don’t want to.” With that, Louie immediately carried her to his bedroom.

Eva wished she hadn’t come, but it was too late. She gradually lost herself in the man’s affection, as he reawakened her previously buried love and obsession for him. She could no longer avoid her own feelings after being confronted with his intense love.

Later in the evening, Eva sat on the sofa after taking a bath. “Should I take the pills?” she asked herself.

“I don’t think it’s necessary,” the man standing behind her replied.

Eva raised her head and gave him a stern look. How dare he respond to me?! It’s all because of him that I’m worried about this!

Louie immediately understood how those men who were tightly controlled by their wives felt. He quickly pursed his lips and remained silent.

Eva, however, felt uneasy. What if I become pregnant? What am I going to do then?

Oh God, please don’t let that happen!

At this moment, Louie’s phone rang. He took a look at the screen before answering it. “Hello, Julian… Dinner tonight? Sure. I’ll be there with Eva.”

After he hung up the phone, Louie looked at the woman sitting on the sofa and said, “My brother invited us for dinner tonight. Jessie will be there too.”

Eva nodded in response. “I’ll take a bath in my room,” she said as she stood up.

“Take your bath here. I’ll help you,” Louie said gently.

Eva, of course, turned it down. She had lost all trust in him.

At 6.30PM, Louie and Eva were the first to enter the restaurant’s private room. Not long after that, a lovely couple entered.

Julian and Jessie had arrived. They both came straight from the set to the restaurant, and they looked a little tired.

“Hello, President Gilmore and Eva!” Jessie greeted.

Eva was surprised as she watched the duo enter the room together, as they both looked and behaved like a couple.

Louie was astute enough to notice that as well. Of course, he was aware that Jessie was special to his brother. “You don’t have to address me as President Gilmore, Jessie. Just call me Louie, as Julian does,” he said.

How can I do that? That took Jessie aback for a brief moment. She then quickly responded, “I shouldn’t do that. You are my superior, and I must respect you.”

“All right, then!” Louie did not pursue the matter further.

Eva quickly drew Jessie to the seat beside her and inquired about her earlier filming. Meanwhile, the brothers had their eyes fixed on Eva and Jessie while the women were chatting, as they were the main protagonists now.

“Eva, I heard you only have slightly more than a dozen scenes left for you to wrap your part. Is that correct?” Jessie asked.

Eva replied with a nod. “Yes. My filming will be completed in three or four days.”

“Then you’ll be leaving, won’t you? I’ll miss you though…” Jessie took Eva’s hand in hers as she spoke.

“It’s all right. After you return to Averna, we can go out for meals or go shopping.” Eva had already taken Jessie as a friend.

Suddenly, Julian interrupted and asked curiously, “Is the news on the Internet true? Are you two seeing each other?”

“Of course, that is true,” Louie answered.

Eva’s face flushed as soon as she heard that. “Don’t listen to him,” she told Julian while sternly looking at Louie.

“I can’t promise anything else, Eva, but I can assure you that Louie’s feelings for you are genuine and sincere.” Julian decided to assist Louie to push his brother further along in his relationship.

Eva’s eyes flickered when she heard that. She was aware of Louie’s feelings for her, but she had no plans to get married right now. After all, marriage was a big decision for a woman, and she couldn’t make it after only one night of sleep.

“Eva, I can see that President Gilmore treats you well,” Jessie chimed in.

However, Eva began teasing Jessie instead. “I can see that Julian treats you well too. Are you two together now?”

This made Jessie embarrassed. “The noble Young Master Julian would not be interested in me!”

“Who else could I be interested in besides you?” Julian snorted softly in response.

Eva immediately laughed at that. “It appears that I have good acumen. I could immediately tell that you two are a couple.”

“No, no. We are not together yet,” Jessie quickly waved her hand in the air and denied it.

Julian held a teacup as he added to Jessie’s words, “True. We’re not a couple now, but we will be in the future.”

Jessie’s face flushed when she heard that. Julian’s proactiveness surprised Louie as well. Louie had thought he was quite successful in courting Eva, but Julian now appeared to be better at courting women than him.

“Julian is a good catch. Don’t pass it up,” Eva advised as she tugged on Jessie’s hand.

Jessie felt amused yet embarrassed at the same time. She was here today to check out Eva’s relationship with Louie, but she was now the one being persuaded to be with Julian!

“Look at what you’re saying, Eva. You sound as if you are my sister-in-law. Why don’t you both be real sisters-in-law?” Julian teased.

Jessie and Eva both looked at each other, stunned.

Only the brothers sitting across from them laughed.

Louie then began asking questions about Julian’s relationship. “When did you start dating Jessie? Why wasn’t I aware of it?”

Meanwhile, Jessie held her teacup in her hand. She, too, wanted to hear Julian say when he became interested in her.

With a smile, Julian responded, “We’ve only known each other for about two months. How would you know about it when you were so preoccupied with your work every day?”

Julian’s words startled Louie a little. True enough, Louie had indeed neglected his brother as he had focused his attention solely on his work.

After their meal, Julian brought Jessie back to the hotel for a rest. Eva, on the other hand, reasoned that she hadn’t taken a walk through the streets in a long time and invited Louie to join her. Louie, of course, eagerly followed.

There was an interesting antique street nearby that was usually crowded at night because it had many interesting toys. Eva truly enjoyed the lively atmosphere. It was just that the crowd was so dense that Louie had to hold her hand as he was afraid that she would get lost.

With a cap and a mask on, Eva walked obediently by his side, looking just like a shy wife.

Louie had his hand on her shoulders as he walked alongside her on the crowded street and then to the scenic area. Half an hour later, he led her back to the car as the sky darkened.
