Chapter 154

Eliza frowned as she read the text. She knew that Lucija said these words on purpose to stimulate her.

Holding her cellphone, she wanted to retort, but she deleted the words she typed several times. Finally, she found that she seemed to have no evidence and had no reason to refute her. Lucija was telling the truth. She was indeed a surrogate before this. Beau was indeed guilty towards Braint and Demarion’s mother and he thought of compensating her several times. So… was she really a substitute? 2 Eliza shook her head. She did not believe it. “Mommy!” There was a knock on the door again. “Come out for your meal!” “Daddy said that if you don’t go downstairs, we can’t eat.” “For the sake of your two precious sons’ stomachs, hurry up and go downstairs to eat!” The crisp child’s voice outside the door made Eliza’s mood better. She frowned and directly deleted Lucija from her contact list. Why should she care about what Lucija said? Wasn’t her goal all along just to see Beau and her bickering with each other and separate? She did not want to let her get what she wanted. 3 Eliza put the phone away and got up to open the door. Outside the door, Demarion put his hands on his belly exaggeratedly. “Mommy, you’re finally out!”

“If you don’t come out, your precious son will starve to death!” Looking at the funny look of the little guy, Eliza’s unhappiness caused by Lucija disappeared instantly. She squatted down, picked up Demarion, and went downstairs. “You usually eat so much, you won’t die of hunger so easily.” Demarion flattened his lips and looked at Eliza with a face full of bitterness. “So mommy, you really want to starve me to death.” “According to the functions of the human body, it is actually difficult for you to starve to death.” At the dining table, Braint looked at the book of human anatomy in his hand and said lightly, “If you want to starve to death, you have to get rid of the fats on your body first.” Demarion, “…” “Braint, you are saying that I am fat!” “I’m just stating an objective fact.” “Yes, what Braint said is true!”

Beside him, Little Liliana, whose hair was tied up in a ponytail, answered in a hurry, “Demarion, you should eat less in the future, otherwise, you will easily starve to death!” Demarion, “…” He felt that he had been targeted.

The little fellow twitched his lips in frustration. “I was just joking with mommy.” Braint looked up at him indifferently. “I’m also joking with you too.” Liliana also stretched out her small hand and raised her hand.

“Me too!”

Demarion, “…” Alright, he was indeed being targeted. The little fella gloomily left Eliza’s embrace, climbed onto its own dining chair, and then began to eat bitterly. “In order not to starve to death, I want to eat more!” Looking at his son’s childish expression, Beau sighed. After a long while, he looked up at Eliza. “Did you get enough rest?” Eliza nodded graciously. “Yes.” Beau chuckled. “You were so tired last night. I thought you would sleep longer.” “Ahem, ahem!” Demarion quickly coughed and said, “Daddy, there are kids at the table.” Beau glanced at him indifferently. “Now you finally remember that you’re kids?” “When you embarrassed me with the video yesterday, why didn’t you remember that you are kids?” Demarion coughed and raised his head to glance at Braint, not saying a word. Eliza’s mood finally turned better after hearing Beau mention the video from yesterday. She chuckled. “I think that video is…

quite interesting.” “Since you think it’s interesting..” Beau looked at her with his bottomless eyes and said, “Why don’t you confess to me in that way from now on?” Eliza, “…”

She chose death.

After lunch, Eliza received a phone call from Mr. Diaz, asking her to come to the crew hotel for something. “Eliza!”

When Eliza just got off the car after she arrived at the hotel, Mr. Diaz greeted her enthusiastically and took her to the conference room on the second floor. Mr. Diaz first congratulated Eliza, and then began to speak sincerely, “We are moved by the relationship between you and Mr. Valentine, so we have decided to make some adjustment on the kissing scenes of this play…” Eliza’s eyes lit up.

Make some adjustment on the kissing scenes? Was it to reduce the number of the kissing scenes? After all, Beau had made it clear yesterday that he didn’t want to see her kiss another man. “We’ve decided…”

Mr. Diaz cleared his throat as if he was announcing an imperial edict. “We have decided to triple up the number of the kissing scenes!” ? Eliza, “!!!” “Why is that?” “After you and Mr. Valentine announced your relationship, the netizens all over the country think you’re a good match.” Mr. Diaz was very excited.

“Adding the kissing scenes to your play at this time can help you to show off your affection to Mr.

Valentine!” “By then, we’ll take photos of you kissing from multiple positions and put them on the internet as behind-the-scenes. It’ll definitely ignite the topic. In this way, we’ll save the propaganda fee!” “On one hand, you and Mr. Valentine can show off your love. On the other hand, netizens get to see what they want, and our film can also be famous.” “We can kill three three birds with one stone, Eliza!” He spoke enthusiastically, “That’s a deal!” “Wait a minute!” A second before Mr. Diaz got up to leave, Eliza frowned and said, “I don’t agree.” “I don’t agree to add kissing scenes, and I don’t agree to use the relationship between me and Beau to hype.” “Purple City is a good movie. There is no need to use this way to promote and sell it.” “My husband, Beau, is a businessman, not a star. He doesn’t need to accompany me for the show, so I refused.” “Not only did I refuse to add more kissing scenes, I suggested that the scenes be reduced.” Eliza closed her eyes. “On one hand, it’s to reduce the exposure of my husband.”

“On the other hand, it’s to make him feel at ease.” Since Beau had already publicly expressed that he did not want her to kiss other male actors, then she would not do it. For her, he even held a press conference like that. She thought it was necessary to argue with the director and reduce kissing scenes for him. She shouldn’t take advantage of him. Mr. Diaz’s smile disappeared in an instant He looked at Eliza with a frown. “Are you dumb?” “What a great opportunity is this…” “Since she doesn’t want to add kissing scenes, then remove them.” Suddenly, a low voice of a man sounded. Mr. Diaz was taken aback and he turned around hurriedly. At the door of the reception room, Julian’s arms were crossed as he leaned against the door. His eyes were indifferent. “I respect Eliza’s choice.” Mr. Diaz was stunned. He looked at Eliza and then Julian, and finally sighed helplessly. “Okay, I’ll listen to you!” If it was just Eliza who insisted, he could persuade her. But if Julian insisted… He had no confidence in persuading the two leading actors. He didn’t want them to quit together. But even if he agreed, Mr. Diaz was full of reluctance “You don’t even want the chance that I offered for free. Eliza, I’d like to see if you can get famous in the future!” Mr. Diaz threw these words coldly and turned to leave. *Thank you.” After Mr. Diaz left, Eliza took a deep breath and thanked Julian. “There’s no need to thank me.” Julian walked in and sat down next to Eliza elegantly and casually. “I did this not for you, but for myself.” Eliza furrowed her brows and looked at him in confusion. Julian looked up and fixed his bottomless eyes on Eliza’s face.

“I promised Liliana that I’ll make you her mommy sooner or later.” “I don’t want to see you kiss me in front of me.” D Eliza, “.
