Darling, Don't Get Rid of Me novel Chapter 71

After a while, Harriet said, “Mr. Smith, who is she?”

Then, the woman turned to look at Harriet and said politely, “Nice to meet you, I am Lisa.”

“Nice to meet you, I am Harriet. Are you friends?” Harriet replied and reached out her hands to shake with her politely.

Lisa looked at Wesley, and replied, “We are just more than friends. You are Wesley’s good friend, right? But he does not mention you before.”

Then, she turned to look at Wesley again, and said, “Wesley, you should bring her out before.”

Wesley looked at Harriet coldly, “Do you think I will make friends with a woman like her?”

Harriet stiffened and looked at the man in astonishment.

What did he mean by that? To humiliate her in front of others?

Lisa was also surprised and wanted to say something. But then, Wesley said, “Why are you dressed like that?”

Harriet burst into a enchanting smile, “Obviously, I came here on purpose to pick you up today and I am dressed up in this way just for you. Now that you’re done, let’s go to the destination.”

However, Wesley was not willing to hang out with her.

When he got into the car coldly, Harriet obediently followed him in.

“Wesley, but don’t drive too fast.” Lisa looked worried.

Harriet looked at Lisa and felt a little angry. Then, she straightened herself up and turned to look at Wesley.

Wesley was not in a good mood, so he didn’t respond to Lisa. He just stepped on the gas and went away.

On the way, Harriet asked slowly, “Mr. Smith, Lisa says that you are more than friends, so what do you have to do with each other?”

In fact, she did not want to ask more, but she minded very much the way Lisa addressed him.

“You are not entitled to know that much.”

Wesley’s answer made Harriet feel embarrassed. she gritted her teeth rather than spoke.

Well, these days Wesley’s gentle attitude almost gave her the illusion that their relationship were slowly improving, but now it seemed that she was wrong.

“You shouldn’t come out in such dress.” After a moment’s silence, Wesley suddenly spoke.

Harriet frowned, “I can’t promise that. Sometimes I have to dress like that because of the work.”

“Then you need to change the work.”

Harriet said with a sneer, “Change of job? Mr. Smith, it is my major. To be honest, I really don't know what I can do except acting. Do you want to keep me for a lifetime?”

Wesley replied without hesitation, “Sure, as long as you're compliant.”

Harriet laughed coldly, “Mr. Smith, I know that you have a lot of women if you are willing, but I am sorry that I am not willing to be yours for a lifetime.”

The car stopped suddenly.

“Harriet, you do not know how to make me happy, but it seems that you are good at making me angry.”

Wesley looked at Harriet angrily and seriously. But Harriet did not know what Wesley was thinking and she also did not want to know. She just kept smiling and said, “Thanks.”

“Is that your attitude of pursuing me?” Wesley frowned.

Harriet looked tired, “Wesley, haven’t you had enough fun yet ? I’ve been in the play with you for a week, and since you like being chased so much, you shouldn’t stay with me. You can go anywhere with someone to make you happy. Please leave me alone.”

Wesley sniffed, “I will let you go until I get tired of you.”

Harriet suddenly held her arms up tightly. And He’s not going to do anything to her in the car, was he?

Wesley seemed want to do something. But when he looked down and saw a scar under Harriet’s low collar, he fell into deep thought.

Every time he saw the scar, there was an indescribable mixture of emotions in his heart. He always remembered the way she stood in front of him. A faint feeling of pain filled his heart, and he did not bother to disturb her.

Harriet was in a bit of a surprise. Wesley had not let her off so easily, so she asked, “You...Are you all right?”

Wesley looked seriously, “Do you want me to do something?”

“No, of course not!”

Harriet shrank back instantly and laughed, “I’m just concerned about your state of mind,” she said.

Then they kept silent on the way.

however, on the last day in New Zealand, Harriet’s travel strategies didn’t work at all. They went back to the hotel and went to sleep, and Wesley simply hugged her to fall asleep instead of doing anything that made her resist.

Before returning China the next day, The lady Lisa came to see Wesley off and kissed Wesley, which made Harriet feel surprised.

Finally returning to the familiar California, Harriet rushed to the cast.

“Oh, dear, I am glad to see you back.” Her assistant breathed a sigh of relief at the sight of Harriet.

Harriet felt guilty. She’s asking for leave these days, but the schedule must be delayed. Cast personnel dared not blame her, but they might blame her assistant.

“Sorry.”

Molly looked at her in a worry, “Never mind. I heard that you are ill, and some of them want to visit you, but I refused them.”

Harriet clapped her appreciatively on the shoulder, “Well, you did a good job.”

Molly looked down shyly, and said, “Keith looked for you several times. And he is more worried about you than anyone else. So you’d better call him.”

Harriet walked casually toward the dressing room, “I’ll get in touch with him when I’m free.”

Of course, she would not contact Him. Wesley has explicitly warned her to keep all men at arm's length, and aside from acting, she could not make friends with men like before.

“Harriet, I am glad to see you again.”

Hearing such pleasant voice, Harriet turned around and looked at that woman. But she could think of who she was.

Molly hurriedly introduced to Harriet, “Harriet, she is newer of the crew. Because someone was ill, the director had to change another.”

The girl looked cute, but in Harriet’s eyes, she seemed not like the girl.

“I heard that you were ill, and every one here worried about you. Well, I am Cherry. It may be the first time for you to meet me, but I have seen you many times on the screen. Your acting is really good!”

Harriet still disliked the girl who was obviously somewhat familiar.

In Harriet’s memory, she had a sister. Therefore, Harriet felt a little familiar.

“Thanks.” Harriet replied perfunctorily.

Cherry continued to say, “You need to do some makeup, right? In fact, I’m pretty good at makeup. I’ve seen your makeup photos before. Why don’t I give you a base?”

Then, the makeup artist and others had not arrived at the scene. Though Cherry’s suggestion sounded good, Harriet did not want to have nothing to do her.

“No, I can do it by myself.”

Then Cherry felt disappointed. She silently retreated to one side, as if she was bullied.
