Elena moved her legs, wanting to get off him. Dylan tightened his grip. “Miss Elena, if you don’t behave yourself, I can’t guarantee that you won’t be injured if you fall later.”
Elena fell silent.
Audrey and Anna walked on either side of him. After a while, Audrey teased,
“Elena, I didn’t know you were so timid. You actually fainted again today.”
Elena’s eyes flashed with pride. “Isn’t this what I’m good at?”
“Good at it?” Audrey and company asked in puzzlement.
Elena realized that she had said something wrong and quickly changed the topic. “What happened today was really unexpected! I don’t even dare to imagine how badly I would be injured if that black goat rushed towards me…”
Audrey’s attention was quickly diverted by Elena’s words. “Why did that goat go crazy for no reason? And it even attacked someone? It’s really strange.”
“Did you feed it something unclean?” Dylan asked curiously. “If it ate something strange, it’s possible for its mood to suddenly worsen.”
‘I think it’s possible,’ Anna nodded seriously.
Audrey cast a probing gaze at Elena.
Elena pretended to be weak and lay on Dylan.
Feeling the warm breath of Elena on his neck, the tips of Dylan’s ears turned slightly red.
“I’m so tired,” Elena said weakly. “Let’s go back quickly. I’m going to sleep all afternoon today. I’m so tired.”
The few of them did not say anything else. Instead, they quickened their pace and left the ranch.
On the way back, the exhausted Elena leaned her head on Audrey’s shoulder. “What was that for?” Audrey gently nudged the other party’s head in disdain.
Unexpectedly, Elena reached out and hugged her arm tightly.
“Don’t move. I want to sleep. Don’t disturb me.” After Elena said that, she leaned against Audrey and closed her eyes.
Audrey was speechless.
Dylan, who was sitting in the front passenger seat, confirmed that Elena had closed her eyes in the rearview mirror before silently turning around.
“What is it?” Anna asked automatically.
Dylan’s expression was strange. He thought for a moment and decided to send a message to Anna on his phone.
At the same time, Audrey turned on her phone.
Seeing that Evans had actually sent her a message, Audrey as a little taken aback, even mixed with a little surprise.
Evans: What’s going on on your side? What happened?
Audrey recalled Gail’s words and didn’t plan on telling Evans in detail.
Audrey: “There was a small accident at the scene. The director wants us to return to our residence first.”
Evans sensed that Audrey was deliberately avoiding this topic, so he tactfully didn’t ask further about what had just happened. Instead, he talked about something else.
Evans: “When I was watching the live broadcast just now, I noticed that you don’t look too good. Did you not sleep well last night?”
Audrey’s heart skipped a beat.
Audrey turned her head and glanced at Elena, who was leaning on her shoulder. She immediately felt helpless.
Audrey: To be honest, I didn’t sleep well with another person in my room last night.
Evans: Another person? Is that your assistant?
Audrey: It’s not my assistant, it’s Elena.
Audrey’s answer surprised Evans.
Evans: I remember that you didn’t have a good relationship with this woman before. Now, because of a variety show, you can actually sleep in the same bed?
If it were anyone else who said this, Audrey would definitely feel that they were being sarcastic to her. However, Evans was different. Audrey knew that he had no ill intentions towards her.
Audrey: I know what you mean. To be honest, I still remember the last time I was forced to drink by those guys.
Evans: Since it’s still vivid in your mind, why did you do it knowingly?
Evans had always felt that trust between people was actually quite fragile. Elena had once hurt Audrey, so he didn’t think that Elena had any determination to abandon evil and promote good.
Furthermore, the entertainment industry was a huge dye vat. Elena had debuted as a child star, She had been in the entertainment industry for much longer than Audrey. Her experience was clearly much richer than Audrey’s. At the same time, Elena’s methods were definitely much crueler than Audrey’s..
