Second Marriage novel Chapter 360

Hearing what the assistant director said, Alice and Yanis exchanged a look.

While Yanis was about to nod, Alice stopped her action with a smile and explained in a soft voice, “Sorry, I suppose I have not much time to take any other orders recently.”

“Then...can I have your card? So I can contact you in case you have time.”

Since he was so considerate, Alice couldn't very well say anything more and she gave a look at Yanis.

Immediately, Yanis took out her card and handed it to the assistant director, “I’m Yanis, assistant of Alice.”

“OK, are you leaving now?”

“Yes.”

After saying goodbye to the assistant director, Alice and Yanis walked out of the set. To their surprise, the taxi driver hadn’t leave and said hello to them when they walked out.

Alice paused and then walked towards the driver with Yanis.

“Sir, it seems that you haven’t left, have you?”

“No, I’m waiting here to see if any actress is going to take a taxi. But I haven’t expected that you only stayed a few minutes in it.”

Alice thought for a moment and said, “We are going to return. Do you mind giving us a ride?”

“No problem.”

After they got on the taxi, Yanis held Alice’s arm tightly and said, “It’s so pitiful that this order is canceled, and I can’t expect a higher year-end bonus. That woman is so arrogant and impolite, though she looks gentle and polite on the screen. Doesn’t she fear that we expose what she is really like?”

Alice gave a glance at her and said, “You can try it and see whether the netizens believe you or their idol. The result is obvious.”

Hearing that, Yanis said in an indignant voice, “I’m desperate about such a face-judging world! But like what that assistant director has said, why don’t you be an actress? Your pretty appearance will definitely lead you to success in the show business. At that time, she must not dare to be that arrogant in front of you.”

“No, thanks. I’m not interested in being an actress. If you are interested, you can be an actress.”

“I would if I have your appearance.”

Saying that, Yanis couldn’t help complaining with her arms crossed, “If only I have either your wisdom or appearance, I shouldn’t be your assistant now. “

“So you are reluctant to be my assistant, aren’t you?” Alice gave a glance at her.

“Of course not.” Yanis answered with a guilty laugh.

“But he was so active in inviting you that he even asked your card. Being an actress can be a good choice for you if you no longer want to be a designer.”

“No way.”

“Why?”

“All those actresses are young. I’m too old and I don’t want to be sneered.”

“You are right. You have been in your thirties. But you have a cheating face. You can cheat others about your age like what many actresses have done.”

“Stop thinking nonsense. You can recommend yourself to the assistant director if you want to be an actress.”

Yanis held Alice’s arm immediately and shook her head.

“No! The show business is too complicated for me and I won’t compromise for any script. I will never be an actress.”

Hearing what Yanis said, Alice pushed her hand away and said, “So you don’t want be an actress while wanting me to be an actress?”

“That's different. You look pretty and you are invited. And I can be your agent if you become an actress.”

“......”

Alice was too angry to say anything more with Yanis. So she didn’t respond. After a while, the taxi arrived at the Ruixin Community.

Alice had intended to return to the Nelson family in B City a few days later considering that Kate was also going to B City. But as the order was canceled, Alice didn’t have to go to B City.

So she intended to consult with Zain to delay the time she returned to the Nelson family.

However, after hearing what she said, Zain sneered and commanded her to return with Jack the following day.

“It’s too urgent. I haven’t even bought the tickets.” Alice said.

“I’ll drive to pick you up tonight.” Zain responded.

“Don’t.” Alice said.

“It doesn’t matter. It takes only a few hours.” Zain said, though he sounded tired.

Alice was worried about him as he was her brother and was so nice to her. So she finally compromised.

“All right. Jack and I will get up early tomorrow and take a taxi to B City.”

Zain was silent for a moment, and then responded with satisfaction, “I’ll ask Sebastian to pick you up.”

“Shouldn’t we get there by taxi by ourselves?” Alice asked.

“You will be stuck in traffic. Come here in the next morning. I’ll ask Sebastian to pick you up later. So you can prepare to depart after a short break after dinner.”

“Don't push your luck, Zain.” Alice warned.

In this case, she couldn’t even take a good sleep this night.

Zain was not angry about her warning and chuckled, “Be a good girl. You can take a good sleep after you come here.”

After hanging up the phone, Alice scratched her hair resignedly as Zain had a sister complex.

Or he was guilty about having got the wrong person after looking for her for over twenty years.

But according to Megan, Zain was indifferent to Diana in the past.

Perhaps it was because of the kinship between her and Zain that he was so close to her.

At the night, Yanis cooked the braised fish Jack had been anxiously longing for in person. Jack touched his belly contentedly and lied in the arms of Alice.

“Mom, the braised fish Aunt Yanis cooked is so delicious.”

Hearing what he said, Alice glanced at Yanis across the table and joked, “What about marrying Aunt Yanis when you grow up?”

Hearing that, Yanis almost choked.

“No.” Jack shook his head seriously.

“Why?”

“Are you silly, Mom? I’m only five years old. When I grow up, it will have been more than twenty years. At that time, Aunt Yanis will have been Grandma Yanis and she’s no longer beautiful.”
