CEO One Night Stand

Chapter 272

Ch. 272 / 324 Jul 29, 2025

In fact, Sara did not know Michael. It was her assistant who reminded her that she knew who he was.

Michael just won the movie king two years ago, and he had always had a good reputation in the circle. He was a rare clean person in the dye tank of the entertainment circle. He was decent, not putting on airs, and gentle. Therefore, everyone had a good impression of him. When they saw him come to visit the crew, they all greeted him.

Sara looked at Michael's handsome face and felt that Mr. Shields was not worse than him. It was even because of the unique romantic charm on his face, he was more attractive.

Michael noticed her gaze and looked back at her.

Sara did not avoid him and looked straight into his eyes. Michael was stunned for a moment. He then smiled and pushed open the door to the lounge and walked in.

The assistant said in a low voice, "Brother Michael must come to find me."

Sara looked at her phone and said, "It's getting late. I'll go and tell her, and then I'll go back."

The assistant nodded.

In the lounge, Caitlin was holding a small fan in her hand, leaning against a chair and drinking cold drinks. Her expression was indifferent towards Michael and it was impossible to tell the atmosphere between a man and a woman. On the other hand, Michael had a gentle smile on his face as he handed her a tissue. "Wipe your sweat, then?"

Caitlin glanced at his hand and slowly said, "I still have one more scene later. If I wipe my sweat, I'll have to spend all my makeup. It's going to be troublesome to fix it."

Michael took back his hand and gently said, "You should still pay attention to your health. Last time, people in the crew were so scared that they almost hit 120... Speaking of which, you are so dedicated, and there are still so many people scolding you as a vase. I don't know what you are thinking."

Caitlin replied indifferently, "You're right to say that I'm a vase. I'm indeed pretty."

Michael: "..."

Sara knocked on the door. "Caitlin!"

Caitlin turned around. When he saw her, his expression softened a little. He stood up and said, "I'm sorry, I don't have the time to accompany you."

Sara shook her head and said, "No, I'm still very happy today. It's getting late, and the driver came to pick me up. I have to go back first."

Caitlin said, "Be careful. Lilly, send Miss Martin out."

When Sara left, Michael said, "Your friend?"

Caitlin replied, "Sort of."

"I can't believe you have friends..." Michael raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "The girl doesn't look very old..."

"I know that you didn't come today to tell me these things." Caitlin interrupted him and said, "What exactly does that official's announcement mean?"

"... The box office of the country is very good. The director wants to make a record deliberately. Your agent and my agent have their eyes on the movie queen and movie king of the Award this year. Now there are rumors that can be hyped up. The Award for the end of this year must be a country." Michael said, "... my agent came to ask me and I agree."

In fact, Caitlin had already guessed more than half of it, but there were still things that he couldn't understand. He said doubtfully, "Aren't you very disgusted with having a scandal with someone? In the past, there was a female star who tied you up, but didn't you just send her out of the circle directly?"

"..." Michael seemed to smile helplessly. He rubbed his forehead with his slender fingers and said, "It's a rumor. Do you really don't understand or are you lying? It's true that I hate cooking a couple, but if it's you... I have no problem with it."

Caitlin looked at him in a determined manner.

Michael sighed and said, "I really like you, so I don't mind making a false show. If you want, I can announce it now, and I can also get the marriage certificate immediately..."

"Wait." Caitlin frowned. "Do you like me?"

Michael shrugged his shoulders. "Wasn't my behavior obvious enough?"

He confessed to someone for the first time, but in fact, he was still very nervous. He seemed to be understated as if he was a veteran in love, but his palms were sweaty.

Caitlin was silent for a long time before he said, "Sorry, I didn't discover it before... What do you like about me? We met only half a year ago, we didn't have much contact with each other..."

She could remain indifferent to all the hatred, but she had never handled this kind of sincere and burning love, so she was somewhat at a loss and did not know what to do.

"...The first time I saw you wasn't half a year ago." Michael said softly, "When you first entered the entertainment circle, I went to work at your agency and happened to see you. At that time, you still hadn't debuted. The little one seemed to have been caught in the rain, so I put on a coat for you. Do you remember?"

"..." Caitlin suddenly raised his head and stared blankly at him, "It's you?!"

Michael: "Well, it's me."

Love might be like this. Most of the time, all of a sudden, the heart was racing, without any sign, and there was no way to avoid it.

Caitlin pursed his lips, "It's too sudden. I can't accept it. Brother, I..."

"I know." Michael said softly, "I know it is very sudden. I don't force you, but I am willing to wait. When you can accept it, before that, don't refuse me, can you, a rumor?"

Caitlin had lived for more than twenty years. Other than her family members, this was the first time that she had felt the sincerity and gentleness of another person. She suddenly felt a little dazed as her fingers slowly curled up. In a soft voice, she said, "...Alright."

Michael breathed a sigh of relief and touched Caitlin's hair. He said, "Then I'll go first. You have no scenes tomorrow afternoon. Can I treat you to dinner?"

"... Okay."

Sara returned to the Reminisland. Hank was sitting on the sofa, reading a book. When he saw her enter, he didn't even look up.

Sara: "...

"Well, this small-bellied old man is unhappy again."

Sara coughed twice and slowly moved over to him. In a soft voice, she said, "...Uncle."

"You still know to come back." The man's voice was full of indifference. "You told me to go home at seven o'clock, and now it's nine o'clock."

Sara: "..."

She explained, but the old man obviously didn't buy it. He said coldly, "I finally know what the Empty Nest old man feels like."

Sara: "..."

She bit her lip and said, "I won't do it again, just this time! Uncle, you believe me..."

She stretched out her white and tender hand and grabbed Hank's slender finger. She tugged at it like a spoiled child. "I know it's my fault..."

The more she apologized, the closer she got. When she said the last sentence, Hank could already feel her sweet and soft breath, like the honey wrapped in poppy, making people want to lick it and completely possess it.

Sara did not notice the danger at all. She looked at Hank as if he had done something wrong and looked at Aunt Dovlin and Aunt Lyons.

The man's eyes were full of obscureness. He suddenly reached out his hand and held her tightly in his arms. He gnashed his teeth in an unspeakable way and said, "Little..."
