The Billionaire Twins Need A New Mommy! novel Chapter 297

Chapter 297: She Was Not Alone

"Simon, what are you doing?" Manager Kang gasped, looking at Simon with wide eyes. He then looked back, still seeing Melissa’s figure on the side of the road. "Why would you not stop for her?"

Simon smirked, not even bothering to look at his manager. "I already wanted to go home." He then shot Manager Kang a look. "Manager Kang, do you want to go back and pick up Melissa? We’re already far. It’ll be a hassle since the U-turn is also far."

Manager Kang frowned deeply but didn’t push the issue. After all, they had just driven past Melissa, who was standing on the side of the road. And going back would surely take some more time.

"What am I going to tell her now?" he grumbled, glancing at his phone as it rang. "She’s going to be so angry at me, Simon. This is not a good idea."

"Just call her back later," Simon mused. "Then tell her you fell asleep on the road."

"Simon, I’ll let this pass just this once. But remember, Melissa got you into this agency."

Simon scoffed, looking at Manager Kang. "Manager Kang, don’t forget you were the one who begged me to sign with you. If not for you and Melissa’s persistence and promises, I wouldn’t have signed. Honestly, I’m reconsidering signing with you, since all your promises to me haven’t been met."

Manager Kang opened his mouth but ended up shutting it again. In the end, he stayed quiet because, unlike Melissa’s plans to climb her way to becoming an executive of the agency, Simon was already generating money for the company.

"Simon, are you still angry about the role?" he asked worriedly. "I told you it’s unprecedented."

"Then next time, just don’t make promises." Simon looked away, ignoring Manager Kang’s persuasion.

"Isn’t that... Melissa?" Pixy perked up, catching sight of someone standing on the side of the road. "Didn’t she leave with her fiancé?"

Megan, who was driving their small car, glanced at the side of the road. She smirked, stomped on the gas, and drove past Melissa. At the same time, Pixy’s phone began ringing.

"Melissa is calling me," Pixy said, raising her phone.

Megan gave her a sidelong glance. "What are you going to do with it?"

"..." Pixy pursed her lips and then put her phone on silent. Her mouth stretched into a grin as her eyes squinted. "Who cares about her? I’m sure she has a lot of people willing to help."

"Haha." Megan chuckled, and the two moved on. They didn’t dwell on Melissa, already happy that they had finished their scenes easily and without mistakes. Not only were the directors happy with them, but even the crew praised them.

That was a first for them.

Most importantly, Cedrick had offered them spots in his tent, and everyone else sharing the same tent was considerate enough to leave when the ladies needed to change.

Now that I think about it, Atlas and I only exchange messages when necessary, she thought, giggling. I should tell him everything that happened today.

Minutes later...
