Billionaire's Sweetheart

Chapter 716

Passing through the encirclement of reporters, the two, under the protection of Richard's bodyguards, successfully got into the car parked outside the main hall.

Along the way, Richard's hands had been covering Eliza's slim body the entire way, so as to not let her be squeezed by the reporters and get injured.

Just now, when she was trying her best to squeeze out of the path, Eliza did not notice that, but she was anxiously listening to how Richard dealt with the questions from the media. However, when she sat in the car, she felt the side of her arm slightly burning hot, and suddenly remembered that the man's hand was on her shoulder just now.

And from the eyes of an outsider, what he had just done must be true love.

Eliza's eyes flashed, she looked at the man, the passionate look he had in front of the reporters had disappeared, and what remained was only the coldness that came from him.

Facing different people with different sides of faces, Richard Hughes knows well how to cheat others.

"Am I going to become famous?" Eliza self-deprecatingly asked.

It was not a good thing for a woman to be afraid of fame.

"Yes!" Richard replied lazily.

"Then what should I do? I won't be able to lead a normal life in the future!" Eliza realized that for money, she had messed up her entire life. Even if she got rich in the future, she might not even be able

to go back home in her days.

Richard turned his head, staring at her with his gloomy eyes. Seeing her worried look, he said indifferently: "How about, you take the opportunity to start your career in the entertainment circle, I'II make you a star!"

"Me? My condition... Can I do it?" Eliza was a little shocked, she could not even speak properly, she used her finger and pointed at herself.

"Have you ever face-lifted?" As Richard spoke, he actually reached out his hands to pinch her face and chin, as if he was going to inspect her.

Eliza never thought that when the man asked, he would actually touch her face. Her mind went blank.

"I... I am what I am now!" Eliza tensed up and unnaturally replied.

Only then did Richard retract his hand, and continued to sit like a lord-Boss, his eyes were dark and heavy.

"Your appearance can still be wonderful after wrapping it up. However, your acting skills are too stiff. It's too deliberate. I'm afraid that your future will be bleak." Richard laughed in a teasing manner.

Eliza had originally been a little self-confident, but after being struck by his attack, she was already a loser in her own mind.

She shrugged her shoulders and said self-deprecatingly, "I haven't learned how to act, so how can I act

well? Forget it. I'll just live in a modest way."

Richard did not expect this woman to become depressed after being hit by his attack.

Did she not have a trace of resistance in her bones?

He had thought that if he mocked her poor acting, she would be determined to strengthen her acting skills, for proving that she was capable.

So, this woman was not confident in herself.

"Your acting isn't that bad. At least, so far, no one has discovered that we are acting!" After Richard finished, he suddenly glanced at his Driver.

Driver's mind buzzed as he felt a chill down his spine.

Eliza also worriedly stared at him.

"Boss, don't worry, I didn't hear anything!" Driver immediately laughed dryly.

Richard, on the other hand, trusted his Driver very much and didn't say anything.

Eliza lowered her head, staring at her fingers in a daze.

"Do you want to try?" Richard suddenly extended his hand and held her finger: "At least, after we break up, you will have a good job too."

"Even if I'm famous, once I break up with you, I'm afraid my star path will still be destroyed. Everyone will feel that I've been kicked away by you. You deserve it, right?" Eliza laughed bitterly, but was still worried about the future.

"Don't worry, when the time comes, I will speak up for you. I told you that I pretended to be a couple with you in order to bring a new person. Don't all of the people who want to be famous in the entertainment industry love to play this game? To create a scandal that will boost the popularity of the people."

Seeing that she was still negative, Richard started to care.

"Are you really willing to help me?" Eliza suddenly had a bit of confidence again.

Richard looked at her shining eyes and replied her.

He had always felt that Eliza's eyes were similar to Felicity's, they were both limpid and full of spirit. He wondered if Felicity's eyes were also like hers, bright and enchanting when she was happy.

Suddenly, Richard found out that he was thinking wild thoughts again, and suddenly, Richard reached out and hugged Eliza.

Eliza froze, her breathing was out of puff as she asked worriedly: "What happened to you again?"

"Let me hold her for a moment, so I won't miss her!" Richard said very straightforwardly, he did not care about Eliza's feelings at all.

Eliza's entire body shivered slightly.

Richard hugged Eliza tighter, and when he smelled the sweet fragrance in her hair, he couldn't help but hold her more tightly.

The more he wanted to stop his brain from thinking about Felicity, the more he wanted to think.

He had always wanted to hug Felicity like this, but actually, he didn't have any ulterior motives. The feeling of hugging her like this should be very warm and at ease.

Damn it!

Why is it that the more I stop myself from thinking about her, the more I think about her?

Richard felt that he was very annoying, so he lifted Eliza's chin and sucked her lips.

"Ugh.." Am I going to die, does this man regard her as Felicity?

Why did it get worse every time?

"Boom!!" Richard's face, inexplicably, received a slap.

Although the slap was light, it was still enough to wake him up.. Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

"You dare slap me?" Richard squinted his eyes.

Eliza wiped her lips with the back of her hand and said, "Richard Hughes, don't take things too far."

Richard obviously knew that he asked for too much, so he didn't say anything and just leaned against the chair with a dark expression.

This time, his mind was in a mess, he could no longer concentrate on thinking about Felicity, and only felt his face burning hot.

He really should.

Seeing that he did not continue to argue with her, Eliza's heartbeat became chaotic.

Actually, she didn't dislike Richard kissing her, but the moment she thought of how she was a substitute, she inexplicably rejected him in her heart.

Now that there were no outsiders present, there was no need for her to put on a show.

Thus, it was normal for her to not cooperate.

The atmosphere was very quiet along the way.

While Richard was feeling sad as she wished, she gradually started to become uneasy.

Then she turned to him. "Did I hurt you?"

Richard swept his gaze across her indifferently: "What do you think?"

"Don't provoke me too often in the future. I'm afraid I won't be able to control my temper!" Eliza reminded him with good intentions.
