"Uncle Ryan and Uncle Luke? What are you doing here?!"
Jeffrey took off the mask and asked, feeling a little flattered.
"Oh! You must have heard that I'm back! That's why you came to the crew of the Story of Concubine
Ivanka to pick me up today, isn't that right? It's probably hard to recognize me right away when I'm
dressed like this!"
Neither Luke nor Ryan said a word.
As for Wendy, she was simply bowled over.
Without even noticing the awkwardness in the air, Jeffrey happily held Wendy by the waist and took two
steps forward to introduce them, "Wendy, these are Uncle Ryan and Uncle Luke.Why don't you say
hello!"
"What?"
"Greet Uncle Ryan and Uncle Luke! Do it quickly!"
Jeffrey chuckled and then turned to Ryan and Luke.
"Uncles, I would like you to meet my girlfriend, Wendy.She's a bit shy.Please forgive her bad manners,"
he introduced Wendy to the two men.
With a piercing gaze that was as sharp as a knife, Ryan's eyes darkened little by little as he stared at
Jeffrey's hand on Wendy's waist.
A moment later, he repeated Jeffrey's words, "Girlfriend?"
Every fiber of Wendy's being shivered at once! Her contract! She had to pay a considerable amount of
liquidated damages! At the thought of this, she hurriedly pushed Jeffrey away and kept him at arm's
length.
Then, she waved her hands and cleared things up with Ryan, "No, no! It's not like that! I'm not his
girlfriend.
I don't have anything to do with him...
Well, we used to date, but he's now my ex- boyfriend, just an ex! He’s really just my ex-boyfriend! I
swear! I was definitely single when I signed the contract with the company, and I'm still single now!
Believe me!"
A bit confused, Jeffrey had to ask, "Wendy, when did you sign the contract with Glory Media?"
"Just shut up!"
Wendy shushed him at once, afraid that he might say something that would put her in hot water.
Jeffrey hesitantly closed his mouth, feeling so aggrieved.
"Ex?"
"Yes, that's right! He's my ex!" The corners of Luke's mouth twitched in displeasure.
Then, he looked at Jeffrey and Wendy in a weird way, as though he wasn't completely buying it.
The longer he stared at them, the weirder his gaze became.
Was fate playing tricks on his family? How could they both fall for Wendy?! Both of his nephews had
gotten involved with her. Beset by doubt at this point, Luke subconsciously shifted his gaze toward his
brother.
There was a good chance that there was also something going on between him and Wendy! His
brother's face had turned as dark as ink upon hearing the word "ex".
All of a sudden, the atmosphere in the car became so depressing, awkward, and off-kilter.
After a long while, Ryan, who had stayed silent the whole time, opened his mouth and broke the
silence, "Get in the car!"
"Yes!"
Jeffrey quickly replied.
Then, he lifted his leg and was just about to get in the car. However, a little figure beside him hopped
into the backseat in the blink of an eye before he could get in. Then before he could react, the door was
closed with a "bang".
The next moment the engine was started and the car instantly drove away.
Jeffrey was caught off guard! Having no idea what was going on, he got so startled that he froze
completely! When he finally came to his senses, he found himself enveloped by the smoke from the
car's tailpipe.
"What the fuck..."
Why did he feel as though he had just been cuckolded?! By his own uncles?! While his head was in the
clouds, someone recognized him and came running toward him while screaming.
Hearing this, he trembled all over.
So, without having the time to think twice, he hurriedly got on his own vehicle and ran away.
On the way back, the atmosphere in the car felt so depressing the entire time.
The three of them sat side by side in the back seats.
It was a good thing that the car was spacious, so it didn't feel cramped at all.
However, the cold aura emanating from the man next to Wendy was more than enough to make her
shiver.
It was so nerve-wracking that she wished she could just disappear right then and there.
With his curiosity piqued, Luke craned his neck and asked Wendy, "Wendy, you and Jeffrey know each
other?"
"Yes!"
Without missing a beat, Wendy explained, "We met in the crew back in the US when we were shooting
a movie.It's a bit complicated, but we ended up getting together in the spur of the moment.But, we had
already broken up way before I came back!"
intense his method of courting her became.
At that time, she was beginning to think that he must be a masochist.
He could've hooked up with any one of the gorgeous blondes or brunettes who were chasing after him,
but for some reason, he chose to pursue someone like Wendy who was a violent maniac.
In order to make him drop his bundle, she even went so far as to bring her son along with her to the
shoot to let him know that she already had a kid.
Needless to be said, she wanted him to give up as soon as possible.
However, even after he found out about this, he was down in the dumps for just a single day.
The following day, he went back to courting her as if nothing had happened.
Later, Wendy found out from other people that he was the type of person who wouldn't give up until he
got what he wanted.
Moreover, he got tired of being in a relationship very quickly, and none of his relationships had lasted
for more than a week.
At that time, she had no way to avoid him since they were part of the same crew.
In the end, she had no choice but to give in and agree to be his girlfriend.
The two of them went on dates, watched movies and had dinner together intense his method of

After trying to go along with it for three days, Wendy couldn't keep pretending any longer, so she
decided to come clean with him and broke up with him.
As soon as the shoot was wrapped up, she left the crew.
Honestly speaking, she actually got along well with Jeffrey, but she didn't want to be anything more
than friends with him, and she couldn't see herself getting romantically involved with him.
"Wendy? Hey, Wendy!"
"What?"
When she finally came to her senses, she realized that the atmosphere inside the car became even
colder than it was earlier.
"Well, Wendy, you still haven't answered my question."
The question Luke asked just now...
Did she still have feelings for Jeffrey? Afraid that Ryan would bring up her contract, she shook her head
violently and replied, "It's all in the past, so it doesn't really matter whether I like him or not." ‘It's all in
the past...Ryan thought in his heart, tightly pressing his lips.
That meant she did once have feelings for Jeffrey! While she was talking, her phone suddenly rang.
She quickly took it out to see what it was.
As it turned out, Jeffrey sent her a request to add her WeChat account.
She accepted it.
Moments later, she received a voice message from him.
"Wendy! Why did you get in Uncle Ryan's car? Do you two know each other? What is your relationship
with him?"
He sounded like a boyfriend who suspected his girlfriend of two-timing him! Wendy screwed her face in
annoyance.
As soon as the recorded message ended, Luke and Ryan turned their gaze toward her at the same
time.
Crap! What kind of look did they have in their eyes?! Wendy was flipping out at this point, so she just
pretended not to notice their gaze.
Then, she quickly lowered her head and replied to him with a message, "I swear I will flay you alive if
you dare to spout such nonsense again!"
"Wendy, you'll never find a husband if you continue being this violent!"
"That's none of your business!"
"Of course it is my business! Because I'm going to make you my wife!"
‘Make you my wife...' It was another voice message.
Although Wendy made sure to lower the volume before playing it, Jeffrey's voice still sounded so clear
inside the quiet car.
Even without raising her head, Wendy could feel Ryan cold gaze piercing right through her, as though
the ice on the glacier had spilled on her neck, sending chills down her spine.
Wendy was now trembling all over.
To save her skin, she tried to prove her loyalty to Ryan by saying, "Boss, please don't worry! I will never
breach the contract!"
