Chapter 612
Genevieve did not know that the crew had come to Rocunst to film and that they were actually this close to each other. She was also staying at Salisburgh the night before.
“Yes. That’s my son. Lucian, and the other one is my daughter, Amanda.” Genevieve introduced.
“Hi, children!” Bruce greeted as he squaticul down. “I’m Bruce Gable, Mr. Sutton’s friend.”
Amanda stuck out lier head from behind hier brother and stared at Bruce. Her eyes were shining when she saw him. “I saw the news about you on the internet, but I don’t understand your movies at all.”
A subtle smile appeared on Bruce’s face. “That’s because those are romance movies. They’re for adults.”
As for Lucian, he was quict because this man before him felt inexplicably familiar to him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe could not understand how a stranger could give him such a familiar feeling, but he was still Wary of Bruce.
“Mommy” he called out coldly. “This man kept looking at Mandy just now. I think he’s a pervert.”
Bruce was speechless.
Come on. I just saw my daughter for the first time. What‘s wrong with taking a longer look at her? I hatever: It‘s not a bad thing for a brother to be protective of his sister.
“No. He’s not a pervert,” Amanda argued in Bruce’s defense. “He’s Mr. Sutton’s friend. Mr. Sutton will also be a pervert if this man is. Birds of a feather flock together.”
Lucian pulled her hair. “Can’t you see I’m protecting you? Are you stupid or something?”
“What are you doing, Lucian? Let go! Do you want to make me bald?’ Amanda screamed, glowering at her brother.
“Maybe I should start calling you Ms. Bald.”
Genevieve intervened when she realized the children were on the brink of another fight. She gave them the receipt and asked them to go pick up the equipment at another counter.
The children went over as they were told, still shoving at one another.
Bruce’s gaze trailed the children as they walked ofl. Even he himself was surprised at how Lucian’s personality was so much like him.
Well, I guess he is a little meaner than me when I toas younger:
“All right. I should go with the kids. I’ll see you around.” Genevieve did not intend to stay with Bruce and left right after.
However, the family met the man again when they were taking the cable car up to the skiing
venue.
“Mr. Gable, are you going to the same skiing spot as us?” Amanda asked. She had already gone into the cable car when she saw Bruce, so she poked hier head out to look at him.
“Yes.”
“Then join us!” the girl chirped, waving at him to come over.
After Bruce got in, Amanda moved aside so he could sit beside her. Then she took out candy from her strawberry-shaped bag and gave it to him.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Thank you,” Bruce said tenderly. “Do you like this kind of candy?”
Amanda nodded, sticking out her two fleshy thumbs together. “But Mommy said I can only have two every day. Now that I gave you one, I only have one left.”
Seeing how adorable and obedient the girl was, Bruce badly wanted to hug her, but he quickly composed himself.
I‘m no more than Mr. Sutton‘s friend to her now. Besides, Lucian is still on his guard. If I really hug her now. Genevieve might actually take me for a pervert.
Amanda swayed her dangling legs as she continued the conversation. “Mr. Gable, how does it feel like to be an actor? I saw some of the backstage scenes and realized actors can really fly in the sky in circles. That’s so cool!” she exclaimed, waving her arms to prove her point.
Bruce turned his head, looking at her as she spoke. When she was done asking a question, he shook his head. “It’s not fun being an actor. I feel tired every day. I have to read a lot of scripts and spend time with the crew members all day. I can’t even let my guard down when I’m out because of the reporters.”
“Aw, poor you. Then you should reward yourself today by having all the fun you want. Who knows if you will suill be able to play tomorrow, right?” Amanda comforted.
“Yeah. I’ll do that.”
Meanwhile, Lucian sat back in his scat with his arms crossed in front of his chest. His gaze darted between the man and Amanda until he looked up at Genevieve. “Look at your daughter. Not only is she stupid, but she’s also a chatterbox.”
“Isn’t my daughter your sister too?” Genevieve asked, pinching his check.
