Chapter 632 Are You Ms. Daphne’s Boyfriend? Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

“Where’s Louis?” Leanna inquired as Daphne entered the private room. “He said he needed to return a call and will come back later.” Daphne then settled onto her seat. Just as she sat down, she noticed Charlotte sitting directly across her and asked, “Who’s this?” “She’s Charlotte,” Leanna answered. With a smile, Daphne said, “Hello.” Charlotte, on the other hand, looked at Daphne for a few seconds, dazed. “Are you… Daphne?” Daphne nodded softly in response. Charlotte immediately went elated and agitatedly exclaimed, “I’ve seen you often on television shows! You’re so beautiful!” “Thank you. You’re adorable too,” Daphne responded smilingly. Charlotte said nothing else and only clenched her fists, her face filled with delight as if she had just won the lottery. She then quickly tweeted, ‘Highside is the best place ever! I don’t want to go back to Jamesdon again!’ Within two minutes after she posted her tweet, Waylen privately messaged her. His message read, ‘I understand the freedom you’re feeling now after leaving your cage, but you better delete your tweet.’ To that, Charlotte replied with a question mark. ‘I’m afraid your father will pass out from rage on the spot.’ Only a few Woodleys were aware that Charlotte had surreptitiously left Jamesdon, and her father had intentionally kept such information hidden as well. If the rest of the Woodleys found out Charlotte had left Jamesdon and was in Highside, the entire Woodley Family would be in disarray. As such, after being reminded by Waylen, Charlotte could only purse her lips indignantly and delete her tweet.

Then, she replied to Waylen’s message, saying, ‘I don’t understand why Dad never allows me to leave Jamesdon when the outside world is great.’ ‘Times like this will be over soon,’ Waylen replied. ‘Why?’ Charlotte then sent another message that said, ‘How much longer?’ ‘I’ve no idea. All we can do is wait.’

‘Do you not intend to come to Highside? Guess whom I ran into!’ ‘Who else besides Aidan?’ ‘I saw Daphne! She seems to be Leanna’s friend. She’s stunning’ Waylen instantly replied with an ellipsis-filled message. ‘I remember that you’re quite fond of her. Do you want me to ask for her signature?’ ‘Don’t! I’ll ask her myself!’ While Charlotte and Waylen chatted, Louis returned, and the food was served. “Charlotte, aren’t you hungry?” Leanna said. “Let’s eat.” With that, Charlotte retracted her thoughts, put her phone down, and started to dig into the food. Daphne was unclear about their recent situation, so she inquired doubtfully during the meal, “Did President Pearson and you go to Jamesdon for work? Why were you there for so long?” “It isn’t for work. We have some personal matters to attend to,” Leanna answered. “Oh.” Daphne did not pursue it further. Zoe then chimed in, suggesting, “Let’s go to the movies later. There’s a blockbuster film in theaters right now, and I heard the ratings are good.” Noticing that Zoe was looking at her, Daphne responded, “I’m okay with it.” “But Louis can’t,” she continued after a brief pause. “He has an exam tomorrow.” Louis hummed in agreement at that. “You all can proceed. I’ll go straight back to school after this.” “Is it already the exam season?” Leanna asked. She had been so preoccupied recently that she had completely forgotten about this. Louis nodded in response. “It’s the last paper tomorrow.”

Leanna then said, “I’ll send you back to school after dinner then.” “You don’t have to. I can just hail a cab.” “My driver is at the entrance now,” Daphne suddenly said. “I’ll have him send you to school. We’re going for the movie anyway, and it’ll be just nice for him to pick me up after sending you.” Hearing that, Louis went silent and said nothing else. Zoe, on the other hand, curved her lips upwards, a wide grin on her face. Then, she let out a light cough and asked, “What do you plan to do after your exam, Louis?” “The agency has already arranged some jobs for me.” “What job…” Before she could finish her sentence, Zoe felt her foot being lightly stepped on by Leanna. “Let’s eat while we talk,” Leanna said, her expression unchanged, as she began to serve the others food. Zoe immediately understood what she meant and did not continue with her question. Charlotte, on the other hand, seemed to be in a separate world from the rest of them, preoccupied with eating. Seeing this, Zoe couldn’t help but exclaim sentimentally, “It’s so nice to be young.” After the meal, Zoe took her phone out, intending to buy movie tickets. However, Daphne received a call at this point. A scene in an advertisement she shot a few days ago needed to be redone, and someone from the advertiser side asked if she could get there right now as it was quite urgent. Daphne agreed to it. Hence, she kept her phone away and told the others, “I’ve got something to attend to suddenly. You can go to the movies without me. I’ll see you all again soon.” Leanna nodded in response. “Get there safe.” Daphne then stood up. As she wore her mask, she said to Louis, “The place I’m heading to is in the same direction as your school. I’ll send you there; let’s go.” “Okay,” Louis replied. Zoe was left stunned after they both left. “Um… Do I still need to buy movie tickets?”

She had suggested going to the movies earlier because she wanted to create opportunities for Louis and Daphne. Now that both of them had left, it seemed pointless for the rest of them to proceed with the movie.

To that, Leanna smilingly responded, “Let’s go home.” … In the car, Louis kept his gaze fixed on the outside of the window. No one knew what was on his mind. The advertiser’s staff called Daphne’s assistant several times as well, asking when Daphne would arrive. “Let’s go there first,” Louis suddenly turned his head and commented. The assistant was stunned as she reflexively looked at Daphne. Louis then went on, saying, “I’m not in a hurry to go back to school, and I suppose it wouldn’t take much time for you just to redo a scene.” Hearing that, the assistant hesitantly asked, “Daph, why don’t we go to the studio first?” Daphne deliberated for a moment before agreeing, given that the advertiser was already rushing them. “Okay. Let’s go to the studio first. When we arrive, tell the driver to send Louis to school immediately.” Such an arrangement wouldn’t take up much of Louis’ time, she thought. Louis, on the other hand, pursed his lips slightly and said nothing more. Half an hour later, the car stopped in front of the studio. Just as Daphne got out of the car and was about to ask the driver to send Louis to his school, she saw Louis following her and getting out of the car as well. But before she could say anything, Louis said, “It’s still early. I’m also interested to see how it is to shoot an advertisement.” Daphne was rendered speechless. As she had told him earlier that she was his senior and that he could approach her for any work-related matter, she found herself in no position to reject what Louis said. Hence, she let out a cough and responded, “Okay.”

Then, she turned around and trotted inside. Louis, too, followed behind her and calmly walked in. As soon as she walked into the studio, one of the waiting crews quickly approached her. “Thank you for coming, Ms. Daphne. I’ll take you to apply your makeup now.” Daphne nodded before turning her head to her assistant, signaling for her to take care of Louis. Right after Daphne left, the director, who had been standing at the side, spotted Louis and couldn’t help but ask, “Uh… Are you Ms. Daphne’s boyfriend?” The assistant quickly waved her hand, denying what the director had said. “No, no. He isn’t. He is the younger brother of Ms. Daphne’s friend. He’s still in university.” “I’m sorry,” the director quickly said to Louis. “I’ve misunderstood.” “It’s okay,” Louis said, a faint smile on his face. “You’re good-looking, young lad,” the director said. “Do you plan to join the entertainment industry?” “He has already signed a contract with Jellyfish Entertainment,” the assistant quickly said. “Give up your thoughts, director.”
