Chapter: 587
But Bennett understood what she was trying to say.
“You want to raise Marcia's salary, don't you?"
Claudia felt so embarrassed that she didn't know how to respond, She wanted to be honest and say yes, but she was afraid that Bennett would think that she was being out of line.
Bennett dipped his chin and peered at Claudia for a few moments. Claudia stared right back at him, her eyes brimming with mixed anxiety and hope. Bennett couldn't help smiling and said, "I've told Jackson that if Marcia does well, he can raise her salary as he sees fit. You may talk to him about this. You have my blessing.”
When she heard this, Claudia's eyes lit up, "Really?"
“It's a decision you can make, Mrs. Dreskin."
Claudia didn't know how to react because she wasn't really Mrs. Dreskin.
After keeping silent for a while, she finally said, “You are such a good man, Mr. Dreskin."
“I am not."
At least he didn't want to just be a good person around her.
Claudia didn't catch the implication of his words. She just retorted, "No, you really are a good man."
Bennett didn't say anything more.
I hope you will still say the same when I eat you up.
Silly woman. He thought to himself.
It was a nice weekend. Some were in a good mood while others were desperate.
Kristy didn't know how things turned out like this. She had set up that trap for Claudia. How did she herself end up lying naked next to Demetrius Quinn?
Kristy had been totally confused since she woke up in the hotel room. The so-called paparazzi she had hired sneaked into the room and took photos of her and Demetrius.
She had no clothes on her, so when she realized that they were being photographed, she couldn't get up and grab any of the cameras pointed at them. As a result, she panicked, took the bedside lamp, and hurled it at the "paparazzi".
Then, the hotel staff intervened and drove the "paparazzi" away. Kristy wrapped herself in the quilt, went to the bathroom, and put on her clothes. She was so shaken that she forgot to ask Demetrius if anything happened between them the previous night.
Kristy walked out of the hotel with her mind in shambles. When she got home, she tried to do some damage control by calling some key people, but she was too Late. The photos of her and Demetrius had already gone viral online.
They had been spread in various chat groups in the entertainment circle, and nothing could be done to stop it spreading to other places.
She was about to call Anthony to explain herself, but he beat her to it. Anthony called her and asked about the photos.
Kristy found herself at a loss for words. She had no idea how to respond. She just fumbled, . I don't know how that happened at all, Anthony. It was originally...
Before she could finish her sentence, she shut up abruptly, and her face turned livid.
