Domineering Mr. CEO and His Impudent Love-Chapter 2349 - 55: Midnight Knock

"Ding dong——"

The night before David Redington and Winona Wallace were set to film their kissing scene, a tall figure rang Leslie Howard’s room door at the hotel where regular actors stayed.

"Mm... coming." Leslie Howard yawned as she went to open the door.

She had just called her cousin Irene Stephenson, asking her to rush to the shopping mall and buy her a battle outfit to send over.

Truth be told, getting to play the lead in ’Twin Flowers,’ with scenes undeleted and plot exposure increased, was already mission accomplished for Leslie Howard — no loss on the blood diamond.

Since the mission was achieved, she planned to stay away from David Redington for now, to widen the distance.

After all, David Redington had once been a man she loved, even giving her heart sincerely.

No matter how well Leslie Howard pretends, whenever she gets close to David Redington, there are always slight ripples left in her heart.

But what she needed least now were ripples; she wished she could turn stone-hearted.

So, after filming that ’bed scene’ that day, Leslie Howard decided not to seek David Redington for the time being.

Who knew, just one day of staying away from David Redington, as she wrapped up work this afternoon, she suddenly heard Director Henson say that the kissing scene between David Redington and Winona Wallace would be filmed tomorrow.

Kissing scene!

Leslie Howard absolutely wouldn’t allow this to happen.

It’s not because she likes David Redington or feels jealous, but because the partner for the kissing scene is Winona Wallace.

Leslie Howard had told Winona Wallace herself, she wouldn’t let Winona have her way.

Thinking of Winona Wallace during the day at the movie studio, weakly ’enduring foot pain,’ leaning against David Redington, Leslie Howard’s heart burned with fire.

So as soon as she got back to her room after wrapping up, she called her cousin to get her a set of ’battle attire.’

Anyway, even if she loses face, today she must allure David Redington not to film the kissing scene with Winona Wallace tomorrow.

"Ding dong——ding dong——"

The doorbell kept ringing, Leslie thought it was her cousin urging, murmured ’coming, coming,’ and opened the door without looking who was outside.

"You..." Leslie Howard raised her eyebrows in surprise at the man standing behind the door.

The tall and slim man had a mask on his face, wrapped in a scarf, wearing a slim-fit overcoat.

Except for the pair of eyes, almost nothing else was exposed.

But just looking at those navy blue eyes, it was easy to recognize who he was.

Upon seeing those eyes clearly, Leslie Howard froze for a moment.

In the next moment, she immediately pulled him inside.

"Are you crazy? This is the regular floor, there are actors and staff from the movie studio everywhere outside. Not just our crew, even people from other productions are here... If you come knocking like this, are you trying to ruin me?"

After pulling David Redington inside, Leslie Howard even poked her head out to look around.

Only after confirming that no one was in the hallway, did she quickly shut the door and lock it.

Because the situation was sudden, the first thought that flashed in her mind was — if someone caught David Redington knocking on her door late at night, her chance of clearing her name and stardom would be over.

Leslie Howard had been trashed for so many years, yet hadn’t completely rolled out of the entertainment industry, precisely because even though there were numerous black materials, they never involved any top-tier figures.

If tied to someone like David Redington, a heartthrob with many fans, she could truly be blacklisted across the internet.

However, just as Leslie Howard had locked the door and had yet to turn around, a large hand embraced her waist from behind, pinning her against the door.

"Leslie, I missed you..." David Redington murmured in her ear, nibbling on her small, cute earlobe from behind.

His voice was deep and raspy, pleasant enough to make one’s heart tremble slightly and fill the whole body with a sense of bliss.
