Chapter 261: Pissed

Christina blinked her eyes in bafflement but soon composed herself when she realized that she had been wasting their time.

Bobbing her head in understanding Christina finished the introduction part and soon began the class.

Since both Ashley and Riel were new to acting she made sure to introduce them to the basics first. Giving them a few dialogues, she asked them to speak and worked according to it.

Before accepting Ashley, she had seen her commercial that was released just a week ago and Christina was quite impressed with her screen presence. The only thing that made her hesitate was her voice.

In the commercial, Ashley’s voice was dubbed, but the movie she was selected for required a strong vocal to deliver power pack dialogues.

Ashley looked at the dialogues, Christina provided her with and went through them. They weren’t long but still required deep emotions.

Biting her lower lip, Ashley was thinking about how she could convey her emotions through the dialogue when she heard someone speak next to her.

"Do you need any help" Riel who stood by her side whispered.

"No thanks" came her blunt reply.

Ashley tried to ignore his presence, but the man wasn’t ready to give her any space. If she had known Riel was to going to join them, she would have asked for another slot.

Pulling her attention from the paper in her hand, she turned to the man and asked," What are you doing here?" her tone cold as ice and her eyes showing no emotions in them.

Riel studied her expression and heaved out a chuckle before answering," I can ask you the same. What are you doing here Ashley?"

He tried to read her thoughts and came to confirm that she wasn’t aware of them being paired for the movie. She wasn’t to be blamed as the casting was yet to be disclosed to the fellow team.

Riel’s lips curled up into a playful grin when he thought of the day she will find that they both were paired.

Ashley’s face crumpled watching him smile at her. Clutching the paper in her hand she quickly averted her eyes from him. If she kept looking at him even a second further she would’ve definitely punched him.

Amused with her reaction Riel decided to her be and focus on the class instead. Moving his attention away from her, they continued to go through the dialogue.

After dropping Alice to the studio, Noah drove to his company. Agreeing with Alice’s words he decided to ignore Natalie.

Stopping his car right in front of the company, Noah stepped out and marched inside the building.

The moment he stepped inside the elevator, his phone began to ring. Expecting it to be Alice, he quickly pulled out his phone but frown looking at the unknown number.

Staring at the screen for some time, he swiped the answer button and answered. "Hello"

"..."

Noah knitted his brows when the person on the other side didn’t answer. Pulling the phone away, he saw the call was still connected and he asked again," Hello, who’s this?"

Waiting anxiously for the person to speak, his eyes looked ahead at the screen. When the person still didn’t answer, he pulled away his phone to end the call when he heard a familiar voice and he froze.

"Noah..."

Natalie’s sensual voice caught him off guard and the phone in his hand fell down.

THUD...

Noah wasn’t expecting Natalie to get his number and she would somehow end up calling him. While his mind was still trying to grasp everything, the door of the elevator slid open and his trance broke.

Running his palm over his face Noah scrunched his nose and bent down picking up the phone and ended the call in haste before he walked out of the elevator in rush.

Taking a long stride, Noah stepped inside his cabin and rushed towards his table. He was still in the process of how the girl managed to get his personal number and even dare to call him.

Resting his palm on the table he dropped his head down until he finally calmed down and lift his head.

Even after him warning her, she still dare to contact him and that pissed him really bad.

Straightening up, Noah looked at his phone and checked the number she called him from. Taping onto the block button, he decided to blacklist the number.

Something about Natalie seemed off to him. The way, she was trying to get close to him said that it would be hard for him to neglect the girl for long. He could see the desperation in her actions which didn’t look like it came recently after their meeting, but it rather looked like she had been trying to pursue him for a long time.

Walking around the table, he pulled his chair and settled down.

Pinching the bridge of his nose, Noah recalled the moment he first met Natalie. She was with one of his friends at that time. But even after having a partner at that time, she still had her eyes on him.

At first, he tried to ignore her but when she tried to get close to him, he then learned about her intentions and ended up distancing himself from her.

Every time he would see her in the club, Noah would end up retreating out from there. Many nights went by him walking out whenever he was informed about her arrival until one day she stopped coming and he found out about her breaking up with his friend.

Recalling the past incident, Noah was now able to understand why she was again trying to get closer to him. Natalie still carried the same intentions and now she had a reason to lurk around him because she found that he was the same man who spend time with her in the club.

"God... what have I landed myself into" Noah fell back in defeat on the backrest of the chair, stunned by the realization.
