My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1711 Louie’s Request

Louie stood up. “All right. After this meal, we’ll talk about the termination of your contract.” Soon, the food was served, but Eva clearly did not have any appetite and picked at her food, only eating the vegetables.

He looked at her somewhat thin body and frowned. “You don’t need to go on a diet.”

However, Eva wasn’t going on a diet; she had simply lost her appetite because she was so furious with him. “Let me cancel my contract. We can still be friends, and I’ll work with your company if needed in the future.”

It had been a long time since Louie saw her chatting with him so calmly, and there was a smile at the corners of his mouth as he held his wine glass. “As long as you’re willing to renew your contract, you can take 90 percent of the profits while the company only takes 10 percent. What do you think?”

Eva was taken aback for a moment. His proposition was unprecedented, and it did sway her a little.

“What I need now isn’t money. It’s freedom.”

“I won’t interfere with your life. You’re free.”

“I want absolute freedom.” Eva craved even more than that. As long as he was there, she would always feel as if she were enshrouded in his shadow.

Narrowing his eyes, Louie shook his head. “I won’t let you go.”

This was the only thing he couldn’t comply with. He was unwilling to let her go as he knew that once she left his company, she would be like a kite on the loose, and he wouldn’t be able to hold onto her.

“Then, tell me what you want! As long as I can do it, I will oblige, but only if you agree to terminate my contract.” Eva slightly raised her eyebrows, knowing that she had an advantage in terms of negotiations.

After all, the favored ones would always be dauntless. Besides, she knew very well that this man was partial to her, and she could be impudent to him.

Louie’s dark eyes instantly narrowed a little, and they were filled with greed as he asked in a hoarse voice, “Can I ask for anything?”

Eva nodded. “Go ahead!”

“Sleep with me for one night.” Louie bluntly went straight to the point. This was something he yearned for desperately—to get her.

At his words, Eva’s face flamed red. She didn’t expect him to have such a request. The reason she had been able to stay safe and sound in this circle and was not taken advantage of was that he was protecting her. Hence, she didn’t expect that he would be the one who wanted to take advantage of her.

Eva pursed her red lips, wrestling with herself, but she raised her head after a moment and said, “Okay, I agree, but you have to sign the contract termination agreement first.”

Louie had mixed feelings. He didn’t know whether to be happy or disappointed about this. He used the most despicable means to obtain her, and she actually agreed to it. This meant that freedom was what she wanted most, and he was the one she wanted to get rid of even if she had to abandon her dignity. He regretted it. I shouldn’t have promised her. But deep down, he craved her so longingly.

“In three days, your original contract should arrive here, and I’ll sleep with you that night.” Upon saying that, Eva downed the wine in her glass and looked at the flowers on the couch. As she liked flowers, she took them with her when she left.

Louie finished his wine and picked up his phone, making a call to his subordinates. “Prepare Eva’s contract termination agreement and deliver it to me by tomorrow afternoon.”

“Yes, President Gilmore.”

After hanging up, he looked at the night sky from the window with a strange feeling in his heart. He couldn’t deny that he wanted to have her even more than to let her go.

Meanwhile, in the hospital ward, Jessie stayed with Julian on a small bed next to him, feeling satisfied and content. She thought, It’s a blessing to be able to take care of Julian when he’s sick!

Outside, Lisa had also watched the video sent by her fans right after filming and learned that Julian was in the hospital. Naturally, she would not miss this opportunity to shine, so she showed up with her assistant while carrying a bouquet. However, Bethany stopped her at the door.

“Miss Powers, Young Master Julian is currently sleeping. Please don’t disturb him.”

“I’ll just go in and take a look and leave after putting down the bouquet, okay?” Lisa was pleading with her, but she had an ulterior motive. She wanted to go in and take a few pictures so that she could gain some popularity from it.

Bethany was aware of what she was up to and firmly blocked her way. “I’m sorry, Miss Powers, but someone is already taking care of Young Master Julian. It’s not a good time for you to disturb them.”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1712 Because I Like You

“It must be Jessie! Why can she stay with him, but I can’t?” Lisa scoffed, feeling a sense of injustice. “Well…” Bethany was at a loss for words.

Just then, Vincent arrived. He happened to turn a corner and hear Lisa making a scene, so he answered, “Jessie is Julian’s girlfriend, so of course, she has to stay with him.”

Lisa’s eyes instantly filled with jealousy. What? Jessie is Julian’s girlfriend? How cunning! Besides, Vincent is the one to say this, so it must be true. In that case, Jessie will be a part of the Gilmore Family in the future! Now that she has Julian, all of her future resources will be at her disposal!

“It seems Miss Silverstein is quite the charmer if she managed to win Julian’s heart so quickly!” Lisa commented snidely.

Vincent had intended to visit Julian, but since he was asleep, he could only leave. “Bethany, I’ll visit again tomorrow.”

Seeing that he was about to leave, Lisa immediately seized the opportunity and said, “Director Cooper, I’ll go with you.”

At one in the morning, Jessie was asleep when she felt someone putting a blanket over her. When she opened her eyes, she saw Julian crouching by the edge of her bed, looking at her tenderly.

“You’re awake.” Jessie quickly sat up. She reached over to touch his forehead and felt that his fever had subsided while his body temperature was back to normal.

Julian reached out and took her hand in his, his eyes filled with an emotion she could not decipher.

“I’ll take you back to the hotel to rest.”

“No, you can’t leave the hospital yet,” Jessie refused. She was worried that his fever would recur and wanted him to be hospitalized and monitored.

“I’m already fine, but you can’t be mistreated.” Julian looked at her sleeping in the small bed in distress. Not only was the mattress hard, but she also didn’t have any room to roll over.

“How is this being mistreated? This is good enough. I’ll have you know, I once slept on the floor for two years!” Jessie smiled. She wasn’t that spoiled of a child.

At her words, the pain in Julian’s eyes intensified, and he held her hand. “You suffered too much in the past. You must not suffer any more in the future.”

Jessie blinked. “I’m fine; a little hardship is nothing. Being mistreated isn’t a big deal either. I—”

“But some people will be worried,” Julian interrupted.

Jessie wasn’t playing dumb, but she wasn’t sure if he was the one who would be worried about her, so she could only ask, “Whom are you talking about?”

Julian sighed. “It’s me, of course.”

Instantly, Jessie’s heart warmed. She pursed her lips, but the joy she felt overflowed from her eyes, and she bashfully averted her gaze. “Why would you be worried about me?”

“What do you think?” Julian countered.

“I don’t know.” How could she have the nerve to yearn for his affection?

Julian didn’t want to confess his feelings like this, but this girl was just too dense, so he could only explain everything thoroughly. He reached out and nudged the tip of her nose. “Of course, I’m worried about you because I like you. Don’t you understand?”

Jessie felt her heart stop at his words. She had never expected to be able to receive a confession from Julian at a time like this. Did I save humanity in my previous life?

“Really? Then, thank you for being so worried about me,” Jessie said thankfully, feeling warm on the inside.

“Pack your things. Let’s go back to the hotel.” Still, Julian didn’t want her to sleep in the hospital bed and wanted to take her back to the hotel.

As Jessie had woken up, she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep again for some time, so she got up and packed her bag, then opened the door, only to see Bethany and Harper were sleeping on each side of the bench opposite them. Upon hearing the noise, they both woke up at the same time.

“Young Master Julian, are we going back?”

“Yeah! We’re going back to the hotel.” After speaking, Julian reached out and held Jessie’s hand.

Bethany and Harper exchanged glances. It seems that Young Master Julian’s hospitalization helped develop their relationship relatively quickly.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1713 Alone Together in the Room

The group silently exited the hospital and entered the nanny van to return to the hotel.

As Jessie didn’t have a room card in her bag, she sent a message to Lexie. However, Lexie was probably fast asleep, so she never replied to Jessie’s message.

Julian looked at Jessie’s worried expression before saying, “Then, sleep in my guest room for the night.” “No. I’ll only disturb your rest.” She was determined not to disturb his rest and firmly rejected the suggestion.

At that, the man held his forehead and sighed softly. “I’m alright with being disturbed by you. Just go to sleep in my room!” “Still—”

“No buts. Just sleep in my room tonight,” Julian commented in an authoritative voice and did not give her a chance to refuse.

Hence, Jessie could only nod obediently. “Okay.” At the hotel, Bethany and Harper sent them to the entrance and promptly left.

Jessie followed Julian into the room. It was midnight, and the hotel room lights were dim and ambiguous. As she was nervous, she sat on the sofa and looked around.

It was the first time she shared a room with a man, let alone a man whom she liked. “Have a glass of water.” Julian fetched a glass for her. Since he had a cold, he couldn’t share the drink.

Jessie took the glass as she asked with concern, “You’re tired and worn out. Shouldn’t you have a rest now?”

“I’m not tired.” After Julian said that, he sat next to her. Then, he looked at the television and asked, “Want to watch a movie?”

“Yeah! Let’s watch the movie you starred in,” Jessie looked up, her expression filled with interest.

However, Julian refused her outright. “No.”

“But I want to watch it. I want to see that movie where you and Lisa Powers are in it. Your acting in that movie is excellent,” she praised.

Julian did not want to watch that movie with Jessie as he thought she wouldn’t be happy when she watched him fall in love with another woman in the film.

He was even thinking of making her leave the biz after filming the current movie because he couldn’t stand the idea of her being in the same scene with other male stars.

“Let’s watch a football match,” he said to her.

Jessie had no objections, as she was okay with anything except sleeping. She really couldn’t sleep anymore.

He selected a football channel. Although she couldn’t understand anything, she felt happy just looking at the handsome men in the match.

Meanwhile, Julian leaned against the sofa. He stretched his arm and naturally leaned behind Jessie. In the end, his hand landed on her shoulder, and he hugged her.

Jessie’s heart was pounding. She knew Julian wanted to hug her, so she shyly went along with him and inched closer.

He used his large palm to lightly caress her face and let her lean on his chest. And so, Jessie leaned in obediently.

Julian’s physique was shown in the movie. It was a perfect body that many women dreamed of embracing and at this moment, Jessie’s dream came true.

The football match was not attractive to Jessie anymore. She breathed in Julian’s scent with every breath she took, and she could hear the beat of his heart.

She could see the man’s sensual Adam’s apple bob. There was an ambiguous atmosphere enveloping them, and her heart pounded fiercely as she didn’t know what to do.

However, Jessie immersed herself in the atmosphere and was delighted.

Julian had always loved to watch football matches. What was showing on the television was a live match that he hadn’t seen before. However, at this moment, he could not concentrate on the game. Although his eyes were on the screen, the girl occupied his thoughts.

Then, Jessie suddenly sneezed, and Julian looked down and surveyed her immediately. Her sneezing is so cute.

However, she was so embarrassed that she wanted to bury her head in sand. She felt self-conscious in front of the man she liked.

She then felt a pair of eyes above her surveying her. She looked up and their eyes met. In the dim light, their faces were close as their scents mingled, drawing each other in.

​My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1714 Practice Kissing

Jessie couldn’t help but swallow while looking at Julian’s sensual lips, and she suddenly felt a rush of courage to kiss him.

On the other hand, Julian was holding back, not because he didn’t dare to kiss her but because he had a cold and didn’t want to pass it on to her, despite the fever not being contagious.

He couldn’t bear to touch her when he was sick. Meanwhile, Jessie was waiting for him but found that he had turned his head to continue watching television again. That put a damper on her expectant heart. However, she got bold and stood up from his arms to sit on him.

It was Julian’s turn to be stunned. Jessie cupped his handsome face and her beautiful eyes stared hungrily at his thin lips. Julian saw right through her as he blinked his black eyes. “Jessie…”

“I want to kiss you.” She was blunt as she requested, “Can you treat it as a kissing scene practice?”

Julian swallowed at that, but he refused. “No, I have a cold right now. I’ll practice with you when I get better, okay?”

However, Jessie didn’t care if he was sick or not. She was willing to go to the hospital and get an IV drip together the next day.

So, without saying a word, she cupped his face while puffing up her red lips to cover his thin ones.

She did not know how to kiss, so she could only press her thin lips against the man to feel his warmth and breath. Then, she even shyly nuzzled against him.

It was fine when she touched his lips, but the nuzzling killed the man.

Hence, any reasons, such as sickness, were thrown to the back of Julian’s mind. He now put his big palm on Jessie’s head and turned assertively.

He had to teach the girl well about the kissing scene.

Ten minutes later, Julian had to let Jessie go. Otherwise, he would surely have to take a cold shower, and his cold would never get better.

“Go back to the guest room and sleep,” Julian ordered in a hoarse voice.

Jessie wasn’t any better either, as there was a strange feeling running through her body and she didn’t know what to do.

So, she went back to the room. Not long after, she heard Julian also return to his room. She then lay on her bed while holding her face.

Tonight, I’ve done the stuff I didn’t even dare to dream of.

I kissed Julian.

Ha! It’s something to be proud of.

When Jessie was awake and opened her eyes, it was already sunrise. She immediately remembered she had to shoot a scene, and she hurriedly stood up to open the door.

She then saw Julian sitting on the sofa waiting for her. Busy tidying her messy hair, she muttered, “I have a scene today.”

“You’re off work for the day. You may go back to sleep.”

“You gave me a leave of absence?”

“Yeah.” With that, Julian stood up and went over to her side to touch her forehead with his big palm to check whether she had caught his cold.

Jessie flushed slightly. She was happy to kiss like that last night, so she was fine even if she caught a cold.

“I’m fine.” Jessie curled her lips into a smile and reached out to touch his forehead. Julian didn’t have a fever anymore.

“I’ll go back to my room to change my clothes. Let’s have lunch together!” A disheveled Jessie didn’t want to hang around Julian for too long, afraid that the man would dislike her.

“Okay. Go on!” Julian nodded.

When Jessie returned to her room, Lexie looked at her apologetically. “I’m sorry, Jessie. I was so sleepy last night that I didn’t hear the notification. You should have called me.”

“It’s okay. Don’t take it to heart.”

“I heard that you’re sleeping in Young Master Julian’s room. Is it true?” Lexie immediately asked enviously.

“Who did you hear that from?”

“Bethany.”

“Do not spread this news to anyone else,” Jessie stated seriously.

Lexie started to think lewdly, and she asked curiously, “Don’t worry. We’ll keep it a secret. Jessie, did you guys…”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1715  A Price

Jessie smiled and shook her head. “You’re overthinking things!” “No way! Jessie, how can you miss such an opportunity when no one else can have it? Why didn’t you make good use of it?”

Who said I didn’t make good use of it? However, Jessie did not want anyone else to know. “You should have slept with him! Why are you being reserved? You’re wasting such a good opportunity!” Lexie showed a sorry look for Jessie, to which the latter laughed.

“That’s enough. Don’t tell anyone about this!” When she returned to the room, her happiness was something she couldn’t share with anyone, not even with her sister, as she was too embarrassed to say so.

After a day of rest, Jessie was back to intense filming. Director Cooper’s directing was great, so Jessie could fully understand his meaning and do it to his satisfaction.

Eva was also filming her scenes, and her scenes were not that many. Initially, when she joined the crew, she only wanted to look for a movie to shoot. Presently, she was about to be released from her contract, and she was determined to finish the filming peacefully. Once her contract entered, all she wanted was to live freely.

She didn’t want to get weighed down by the pressures of the press and the company. Eva knew she had a rich and leisurely life waiting for her. However, to gain her freedom, she had to give up one thing—herself.

Eva was conflicted. No one knew that secret about her. Many thought that since she was in showbiz, she had lost her virginity long ago. Moreover, she had a boyfriend whom she had been dating for three years. No one would think that a twenty-six-year-old Eva had managed to retain her purity.

However, she was the only one who knew the secret. When she was dating Tucker, although he asked to sleep with her, she still could not accept the premarital act as she grew up in a traditional family.

She then realized that although Tucker had said he loved her and did not want her to cheat on him, he went around to have pleasure. As such, Eva knew his true colors.

If even childhood friends couldn’t see through each other, how many men could genuinely love a woman?

Moreover, Eva had been in the biz for too long, so she didn’t believe such a thing as true love existed. It was just a matter of getting what one wanted.

Hence, she wanted to stay away from the biz. For filming, she would shoot when she was free, rest when she was tired, and be alone to enjoy what she wanted to do.

The third day arrived when Eva received a message from Louie. He had returned to the company to deal with his work, but he would come over on the afternoon flight with her termination contract.

Eva knew she couldn’t escape the cost this time, but she didn’t plan to run because she was open-minded enough to give everything a try. Louie taught her that, and she openly accepted it.

Eva initially rehearsed a play in the afternoon, but it was canceled halfway through. She got the news in the lounge.

As for who had canceled the play for her, she knew very well but didn’t say anything. Thereafter, she let her assistant remove her makeup. In the end, she wore a casual dress and got into the nanny van with her phone.

“Eva, where are you going?” the driver curiously asked as it was a strange time to leave. He had no idea where Eva was going.

“Back to the hotel,” Eva instructed, her heart in turmoil.

The driver immediately drove back to the hotel. On the way, she could only think about what she would face tonight. She was so nervous that her palms started sweating.

Finally, the car arrived at the hotel. Eva then stepped into the hotel lobby and said to Linda, “You guys can have the night off.”

Linda had been with Eva for a few years, so she knew that Eva had personal matters to deal with. Before getting on the elevator, Linda stated, “Eva, I won’t come back here tonight. I’ll have a gathering with my classmates. If there’s an emergency, call me.”

Eva nodded in response. “Okay. Go ahead, then.”

And so, Linda happily turned around and left. Meanwhile, Eva got on the elevator alone. The mirror reflected her scarlet face, and the hotel seemed quieter and less crowded in the afternoon.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1716 The Past

Eva reached the door of her room and swiped her door card to go in. She decided to take a shower first. That was when her phone rang. She glanced at the number, and her heart tensed slightly. “Hello.” “Back at the hotel?”

“Yes.” “Come to my room.” “Louie, it’s still afternoon. I want to take a rest,” Eva said unhappily. She didn’t want herself to be a cheap commodity that Louie could summon at will.

After that night, she would be away from the company and his people. “We have to discuss the termination of the contract, which involves your subsequent share of the post-collection.” The man spoke in a low voice.

Eva choked for a moment. Did I overreact? And so, she answered, “I’ll come right after I shower.”

The shooting earlier made her sweaty and uncomfortable at the moment. Eva then went to the bathroom, took a shower, and blow-dried her long hair as she took a dress from her closet to change into it before she went out.

With her phone in hand, she went over to ring the doorbell of the next room. The door opened from the inside and revealed Louie, who was dressed in a white shirt and a pair of black pants as if he had rushed over from an important meeting.

At that moment, how he looked at Eva made him exude an aura of refined scum. Eva also felt his masculine aura on his body, as if he was a hungry wolf, so she involuntarily flushed under his gaze.

“Come on in; I’m still working.” After speaking, Louie returned to the sofa and leaned down to continue working on his computer. His slender fingers were tapping away as he typed out the document.

Eva sat across from him as her gaze involuntarily shot toward the man. In the past two years, she had been avoiding him. Soon after, the aura on the man was getting stronger, and he exuded the calmness of an iron fist and dictatorship.

At the same time, there was no denying that he was even more fascinating right now. Eva remembered that when she first met him, she had just gotten out of a small entertainment company and had joined another company. After three months, a merger crisis occurred in the company.

However, Stardom Corporation bought the small company she was working for. A week later, all the artists went to a meeting at the corporation. Eva went ahead and saw the young man who walked up to the podium of the meeting.

For the first time, Eva knew that the president of the Stardom Corporation was so young. At that time, all the female artists on the stage were in love with him, and the atmosphere was filled with adoration. Even Eva, who had a boyfriend, had to admit that the moment Louie’s gaze fell on her from the stage, her heart fluttered.

Later, she met him again while arranging a job. She bumped into him in a corner of a corridor. She also heard that many artists tried some tricks to seduce and approach him, but he gave them the cold shoulder and didn’t give any of them to take advantage of him.

Her manager had nagged all day long for her to get closer to the president to get more resources. At a drinking party, the manager deliberately asked her to go over. At the table, Eva saw Louie again.

Louie was so young, but everyone toasted him and paid him compliments. At that time, Eva nervously toasted him as well. She still remembered his deep passionate gaze staring at her for a while.

It made her heart flutter. Finally, after everyone had left, Louie said he would send her home. Eva was flattered beyond belief.

After he sent her home that night, Eva saw him many times in the company. A year later, he confessed his love to her, and she told him she had a boyfriend whom she was dating seriously.

That year, she was twenty-one, and he was twenty-seven.

Although Eva rejected his advances, she still saw him on occasion. Louie drank on her behalf and protected her from the investors’ unspoken rules. He protected her in the biz to keep her from all harm. However, he didn’t leave her life either, or even…

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1717 Terminate Contract

Eva vividly remembered Louie pinning her down in the lounge at a company dinner as he kissed and hugged her. She was drunk at that time.

That was the time she regretted the most. If not for that time, she wouldn’t have wavered in her love for her boyfriend. Then, she wouldn’t have lost her heart and felt guilty for Tucker while she couldn’t control her passion for Louie.

In the blink of an eye, they had known each other for three years until Tucker passed away. She had then left him for two years. In the blink of an eye, Louie was now thirty-two while she was twenty-six.

Time flew by very quickly, just like a handful of sand. Eva was unknowingly immersed in the memories for a while. When Louie held up a cup of tea to drink, she only returned to her senses to watch him finish his tea. Then, he frowned as his lips pursed tightly as if he had encountered some problem.

Eva couldn’t help but stare at his thin lips. She pursed her red lips as she thought of that one time in the dining lounge.

She recalled his crazy look.

As Eva was bored, she picked up a contract next to her. She flipped it and found that it was her termination contract, so she couldn’t help but read it.

“If there are any problems, you can bring them up, and I’ll have someone revise them,” Louie said as he raised his head.

“Okay.” Eva read it seriously because she didn’t want to be bound to Louie anymore.

His gaze fell on her body. The dress accentuated her slim waist, and her skin was fair. Her long hair framed a palm-sized face, showing off her beautiful, clean, and somewhat cold look.

However, the colder she was, the more Louie wanted to see her passionate side which was like fire. The stern face made him fall in love at first sight and lose his soul at second sight. As such, he did a lot of childish things. He would make everyone act for him and arrange for a drinking party just to meet her. Presently, the girl was right before him. She was within reach, but he still couldn’t get her.

“If I leave your company, I cannot work for similar companies for five years?” Eva uncovered a clause that worked against her.

Louie frowned as he muttered, “This is a clause for all artists. It’s a standard clause.”

“It’s too much,” Eva grunted lightly, but she didn’t care much as she had no intentions of filming after leaving the company.

“I’ll have someone change it for you,” Louie stated.

“Forget it. There’s no need to change it. I’m alright with it if I can terminate the contract.” Eva was bent on terminating the contract.

As such, Louie couldn’t help but be curious. “Where do you plan to go after you terminate your contract?”

“I’ll do what I want.”

“What do you want to do?”

“Haven’t thought about it yet.” After speaking and flipping through the contract, Eva picked up the pen on the table and signed it. Then, she handed it to the man across the table. “Please sign it, President Gilmore.”

Louie sighed, then took the contract and pen to sign his name sharply with his long and slender fingers.

“Where’s the company stamp?” Eva asked. It wasn’t enough to have his signature; there had to be an official seal.

“I don’t have the stamp with me. I’ll send it back to the office for you soon,” Louie commented in a low voice.

At that, Eva was getting annoyed. “Are you kidding me?”

“I am not a liar,” Louie swore on his reputation.

Hence, Eva could only trust him. At this moment, it was already dusk, and nightfall was fast approaching.

“I have arranged for dinner. It’s in my room.” Louie had planned to have a candlelit dinner with her.

When Eva thought of the imminent termination of her contract, she did not refuse it. So, she walked to the French window to look at the scenery. At the same time, Louie wrapped his slender and strong arms around her waist, and Eva immediately tensed a little. Louie lightly rested his sensual chin against the back of her head as he murmured, “Do you know how much I missed you in these two years? I visited your commercial shooting site several times but didn’t dare to disturb you. I was jealous when I saw you chatting merrily with other male actors, but I didn’t show it.”

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1718 Confession

“Do you know how often I’ve gotten drunk just because of you?” Eva felt the arms around her waist tighten and the man’s lips were kissing her hair. Her heart couldn’t help but soften at that. When she heard his husky and deep confession, she almost cried.

She knew he had come by while she was shooting a commercial abroad. However, he didn’t know that after he left, she dropped the commercial and chased after him, only to look at his departing car. She was full of loss but had no one to tell.

However, she was afraid to show her feelings. It was because she was the one who said she didn’t want to see Louie for two years. He did it, but she didn’t.

There was another thing she had been worried about. In showbiz, almost everyone looked alike. A newcomer debuted under the title of little Eva, who was signed to Louie’s company. She wondered if he had ever taken special care of her.

“Do you like me?” Eva asked as she smiled bitterly.

“What do you think? Would I have waited five years for you if I didn’t like you?” Louie muttered frustratedly, his lips pressing against her ear.

“With all the female artists under you, there’s many for you to choose from. Why me?” Eva turned her face away, her ear tingling at his hot breath.

“Because it’s you. Only you are worth waiting for.”

“That’s because you didn’t get me yet. When you do, there’s plenty of young women for you to choose from.” Eva snorted as if she saw through Louie’s nature.

At this moment, the man bit her ear lightly. “What nonsense! I will do nothing but cherish you after getting you.”

Eva felt the pain for a few seconds before she turned her head to glare at him. “Are you a dog? It’s painful.”

“I’m a wolf that has been hungry for eight hundred years.” His gaze was deep and dark, and it was as if they were two cold pools trying to suck her in.

Eva flushed when she heard that.

Will he leave me alone after tonight?

“I hear you take good care of little Eva,” Eva deliberately said, although she didn’t have any proof.

However, Louie was annoyed that she accused him casually. “You are who you are. No one can replace you.”

“She is younger and prettier than me. All you like is my face; hers is better looking.” Eva laughed at herself.

Louie turned her head over and stared straight at it. Apart from her face, what attracted him was her clean soul and kind character.

“Don’t underestimate your charms. To me, you’re the best.” When he finished, he cupped her chin while leaning down and kissing her dominantly.

Eva’s head went blank for a few seconds. This reminded her of that night four years ago when he had gone crazy in the lounge. His passion was too hot to handle, and it was as if he was going to swallow her.

That one kiss penetrated her soul deeply, and it was one she couldn’t forget after all these years.

“Umph…” Eva was a little overwhelmed.

Did this man need to be so impatient? I have already promised to accompany him tonight.

When Eva was about to be suffocated by the kiss, Louie finally let her go. However, he wasn’t any better, as his breathing was ragged when he leaned against her forehead. There was darkness rolling in his eyes.

“I don’t want to wait until tonight,” he said hoarsely.

Eva then immediately sobered up. “No, I’m not in the mood right now.”

“What mood? For me, waiting for even one more second is torturous.” Louie hooked his lips into a smile.

When Eva heard that, her ears flushed. “I’m not in your mood.”

“That’s true; I must at least let you have dinner. Otherwise, I’m afraid you won’t be able to bear it,” Louie said kindly.

Eva blushed and glared at him talking nonsense.

The man finally let go of her shoulder and walked to the refrigerator. Then, he took out a bottle of iced water and drank it wildly in front of her.

Eva deliberately did not look at him. The air was filled with the man’s scent, causing her to become restless. So, she picked up her cup of tea and sipped it.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1719 Dinner

Eva had been reading the messages on her phone for quite some time when the man took a seat opposite her. After checking the time on his watch, he asked the hotel staff to serve them dinner.

At that moment, his phone rang out of the blue. He picked up the phone from the table, but he only cast a glance at it before putting it back.

Eva’s attention was drawn to the phone, and she saw a woman’s name on the screen. Raising her brows, she asked, “Why didn’t you answer it?”

“It’s nothing important.” “It must be a woman,” she commented bitterly, prompting him to smile. “Are you jealous?” His words reminded Eva of her feelings. Thus, she immediately turned her face away. “I’m not.”

A frown formed between Louie’s brows as he pondered. There was a thing that Julian didn’t even know about. Back when Louie was ten years old, his parents had arranged an alliance marriage between him and a girl from another family to raise funds. Even after his parents passed away, the other family still insisted on realizing the marriage.

The caller was none other than his so-called fiancée.​ The hotel restaurant had specifically provided them the dinner, and the chef had paid special care when cooking them. Besides, the dining table in the room was decorated with lighted candles and roses in a vase, which gave off a romantic vibe.

Eva hid in the bedroom the whole time until the server set up the table and served the food. After that, she finally walked out of the room because she didn’t want to reveal the relationship between her and Louie to the public.

“Come here. Let’s eat.” Louie gestured for her to join him.

She took a seat near the table and shifted her attention to the dainty roses in the vase. She was lightened by the sight of them. Deciding not to let the more serious business trouble her mind, she proceeded to have dinner.

Surprisingly, Louie ordered the whole table of food according to her preference, which reminded her of his dedication. Even though her expression remained unchanged, deep down inside, she was touched by his gesture. After all, it was impossible to remain indifferent when another person was treating you with care and full attention.

“You didn’t have to order my favorite food,” Eva mumbled.

“I’ve become fond of your favorite food. After all, your preference will become more similar to the person you like when you fall for somebody. ” The corner of Louie’s lips turned into a smile, and his gaze that fell on her was full of affection.

Eva shied away from his intense gaze. Instead, she began to dine elegantly while he opened a bottle of wine and served her half a glass. Swirling the glass, she tasted a bit of it and concluded that it was one of the fine wines.

Little did she know, Louie never had his attention on the food on the table for even one second. To him, she was the only one he wanted to taste tonight.

Indescribable feelings flooded his chest tonight, but he knew for sure that he was overwhelmed by joy. However, he wasn’t the kind of man who let his emotions show. Therefore, she would never know that he was struggling to control his inner beast under the calm façade.

Louie had been waiting for Eva for five years. He witnessed her transformation from a pure soul to a mature woman like an eventually ripened fruit, and it was calling him to have a taste.

“Do you like the wine? I bought it from Averna, especially for you to try.”

“It’s good.” Eva nodded, acknowledging that his taste had never gone wrong, or else the female celebrities would never throw themselves at him after one another.

All those years, she had been learning that a lot of celebrities sought opportunities from Louie. After all, a person would easily be indulged in pleasure without absolute self-discipline and self-control in the celebrity circle.

However, she also learned that he rejected all those attempts to seduce him. Thus, she couldn’t help but wonder sometimes if Louie really liked her.

Eva was a perfectionist, and she wanted full loyalty from him.

She wasn’t the kind of woman who sought one-time pleasure. If he couldn’t promise her his loyalty, she wouldn’t begin a relationship in the first place.

Eva could then spare herself from being heartbroken by another man and the inevitable ending.

Louie’s intense gaze never left her for a moment. He was trying to memorize her beauty with his eyes. The sight of her tilting her head to think, her gazing into a distance on a propped elbow, or her being lost in thought while staring at the glass… Every sight of her was memorable to him. He wanted nothing but to cherish them.

At that moment, Louie felt a pang of panic and anxiety tainting his joy. Eva only agreed to accompany him for the night in return for her freedom.

He was panicked because he would only get to own her for a night but lose her the next day.

“Eva, am I not qualified to be your boyfriend?” Grabbing the wine glass in one hand, Louie shot her the question that troubled him the most.

My Baby’s Daddy Chapter 1720 Her First Time

Based on Louie’s observation, Eva had moved on from the impact her ex-boyfriend left on her. Thus, it was about time for her to start a new relationship.

He was confident that he met all of her standards for a partner, which confused him why she decided to leave him. “You’re an excellent man, but I’m not good enough for you,” she mocked herself.

“Don’t mess with me. What makes you think you are not good enough? We’re the perfect match.” Louie harrumphed.

A smile stretched across Eva’s face then. “President Gilmore. You aren’t the only one to decide whether we are a perfect match or not.” “Fine. We’ll see about it tonight,” he answered petulantly.

She blushed at the explicit words. Even the tip of her ears was showing a hint of red at the realization. Did he just talk dirty to me? Where did the usually serious Louie go?

She let his teasing slip, but she wasn’t in the mood to continue the conversation. After the night, they would part ways and become strangers, and she would have her freedom back.

“Eat some more.” He gestured for her to eat.

Eva only answered with a shake of her head. She had been maintaining a reasonable diet over the years, which was her secret to staying in shape. Even though there were a lot of promising youths emerging in the industry, so far nobody could surpass her. She always remained the top celebrity in Stardom Entertainment.

However, she was aware that many people, who were coveting her position, wanted her to leave the company.

As the night got late, she also got tense because she had no idea how to ease up.

“It’s getting late. Why don’t we go to bed?” Louie was behaving like a gentleman instead of jumping at her without permission.

“It’s not. Don’t you have work to do? Why don’t you deal with them first?” Eva was hoping for him to steer his focus to his work instead of her, so she could have some more time to be prepared for what came up next.

“I asked them not to disturb me tonight. You can rest assured. Nobody will interrupt us for what’s coming,” he comforted her in a low voice. Not even the doomsday could stop him from getting what he had been longing for. After all, tonight was an important occasion.

Louie’s determination left her at a loss for words. Walking away to the sofa, she took a seat and had some tea. Suddenly, his phone rang, and it grabbed her attention. She cast a glance at the caller ID. It was indeed a woman, but the caller’s relationship with Louie remained a secret to her.

“It’s ringing. You should answer it!” Eva reminded him.

“It’s not important.” Louie’s answer was short as he turned off his phone. Eva was just about to turn around to the balcony to look at the night view when he grabbed her arm without warning. The next second, she was dragged behind by the force and fell into his lap.

She was now sitting on the sofa with him grabbing her arm as her petite stature leaned against his chest. Putting her hands on his chest, a flushed Eva struggled to get up, but he nonetheless stopped her.

“Eva, I want you tonight,” Louie said in a hoarse voice tainted by lust. His thin lips kept pressing kisses on her hair. His patience had reached its limit, and he couldn’t wait any longer.

“It’s still—” Eva tried to fight for more time when he dominantly kissed her to block her protests. To him, one night would never be enough. Therefore, he wouldn’t waste any time whatsoever.

When he carried her into his arms, she shut her eyes in resignation, but her body was shaking uncontrollably.

It both surprised and hurt him too to see her in a vulnerable state. “What’s wrong?”

“It’s nothing.” She buried her head in his chest, not willing to look at him.

He then asked in a low tone, “Is this your first time?”

Eva wanted to give him a negative answer, but the truth was the opposite. Thus, she could only shut her eyes tightly, returning his question with silence.

On the other hand, Louie was overjoyed. He couldn’t quite believe her tacit admission because he had always thought that Eva had slept with Tucker in the past. To his surprise, she was destined to belong to him in the end.

Now that he was fueled by his excitement, Louie pressed an affectionate kiss to her forehead. “Have you been waiting for me?”

“Of course not.” Eva averted her gaze, not giving in to stroke his ego.

“I’ve always thought we’re bound to be together.” Declaring his determination one last time in a hoarse voice, he kissed her cheek. “I’ll be gentle tonight.”

We’ll see about that tomorrow, Eva thought to herself.

Meanwhile, Julian and Jessie had just returned from the set after a shoot. She had slowly adapted to recent shootings and her interpretation of her role was working out fine.
