Chapter 35 Rachel Drew a Line With Clark
Michelle quietly told her, "It's not that the director treats you well, but that Mr. Clark backs you up, so they have to treat you well."
"Mr. Clark?" Stunned, Rachel looked at her and asked, "Did he ask the director to delete my kissing scene and to arrange a
substitute for me?"
Michelle nodded, looking at her with admiration, and said, "How enviable others are for Mr. Clark's concern for you! I really hope
to have such a faithful friend as him!"
However, after Rachel heard this, she kept silent.
He was nice to her?
She hoped that he could be cold to her and stay away from her. So she would never have any fantasy of him.
Thinking for a while, Rachel felt that it was necessary to tell Clark everything clearly. If the ambiguous relationship continued, she
didn't know how many rumors would come.
Thus, Rachel took out her cell phone. After hesitating for a while, she finally dialed the number of Clark's.
After getting through, Rachel took a deep breath and pretended to be calm, "Are you free now? Do you have time to meet with
me? I have something to tell you."
"Yes. When?" Clark's calm voice came from the other end of the line.
"Three o'clock in the afternoon. We'll meet at the Destiny Cafe by the filming site."
After telling Clark the time and place, Rachel hung up the phone. But deep inside, she was inexplicably nervous.
It seemed that this was the first time she took the initiative to ask him out, but she was trying to draw a line between them.
But, in any case, she had to break the relationship between them before Clark's fiancee came back.
She would never step in other people's relationship.
This was her principle.
Thinking of this, she checked the time. There was an hour and a half left before the appointed time, and she decided to study the
new scripts.
She stared at the words on the script for a long time, but couldn't read any of them. All she was thinking about was how to make
it clear to Clark?
Michelle next to Rachel shook her head when she saw this.
"Rachel, I don't think you want to hear that, but we all know how nice Mr. Clark is to you. Although you're not a real couple,
you've long been regarded as a couple."
Rachel put down the script and felt fidgety.
"But the truth is I have nothing to do with him. Besides, he has a fiancee."
Michelle sighed, stating, "Those closely involved cannot see clearly. You have to handle your relationship by yourselves. But I
hope it won't affect your work. "
After Michelle left, Rachel was agitated and kept thinking about what Michelle said "You've long been regarded as a couple."
Why did everyone think they would be together?
However, Rachel didn't think Clark felt a thing for her at all.
But no matter what, Rachel thought that Michelle was right. Her work shouldn't be affected by the rumors. So she should make it
clear to Clark before the rumors became more serious.
Finally it was time for them to meet each other. Rachel arrived at the place on time, only to find that Clark had already been
there.
Pointing at the opposite seat, Clark said to her indifferently, "Have a seat."
Rachel sat down gracefully.
Clark pretended that he was listening to her carefully and looked at her calmly.
"Mr. Clark," Rachel raised her head and looked at him seriously, asking, "Should we make our relationship clear now? You don't
owe me and I don't owe you either."
With knitted brows, Clark looked at her in utter disbelief. "Why should we do that?"
When Rachel heard these words, she got angry and ashamed. She lowered her voice and said, "You are always so good to me
unconditionally. You not only make people who know us personally misunderstandings, but also make the rumors spread
everywhere. We should keep our distance, so that it's good for everyone."
A tinge of coldness gradually emerged on Clark's face. He said seriously, "You are the person who saved me, Rachel. Without
you, I wouldn't have gotten what I have today."
With a disapproving smile, Rachel said helplessly, "You want to repay me? Mr. Clark, you have done enough for me. You have
already repaid me. From now on, I don't need you to be kind to me. I don't deserve it."
"You don't have to feel guilty. This is how I deal with things," Clark said calmly.
Rachel was not happy, saying, "Mr. Clark, I really don't want any reward from you. I just want you to stay away from me. Don't let
others think that we have an improper relationship.
"I don't need any special treatment in work. Just let me work hard like ordinary people and experience setbacks and success like
others. Your help is too luxurious for me."
Clark looked at her calmly. "Is this really what you want?"
"That's right. Mr. Clark, please do me a favor!" Rachel replied coldly.
A trace of light flashed through his eyes. After a long pause, Clark said, "I will grant your request if you are willing to move back
to the villa."
Rachel looked at him in astonishment, blurting out, "Move back to the villa? Then we will get paparazzi chance to take more
pictures of us? No, I can't agree!"
"In this case, I can't agree either!" With firm eyes, Clark seemed to be telling Rachel that it was useless to say anything more.
He stood up and tried to grab her wrist.
"What are you doing?" asked Rachel as she recoiled out of instinct.
"I will help you to move," Clark said coldly.
"No, I won't move back. You'd better give up on this idea," said Rachel immediately.
Hearing her words, Clark froze and looked back at her in disbelief. "Are you so eager to keep a distance from me?" he asked.
With a cold smile appearing on her face, Rachel said, "Or what? Do you want everyone in the world to think that we are having
an ambiguous relationship? But in fact, you are not interested in me at all. And I am not interested in you, either. In this case,
keeping a distance is a respect for each other."
Clark's face looked sullen and his eyes darkened. After a while, he left the cafe alone.
With a sigh of relief, Rachel finally made everything clear.
However, when she returned to the site, she was surprised to find that Clark didn't leave but sat in as a supervisor.
Bob said something near his ear and his face brightened.
With a straight face, Clark didn't respond, but cast a cold glance at her when Rachel appeared.
Bob saw her back and walked towards Rachel. He said enthusiastically, "Rachel, I have something to discuss with you."
Looking at Bob who suddenly became warm and polite, Rachel was a little flattered. "Bob, please just tell me if you have
anything. As an actress, I will obey your orders."
"Really?" A hint of happiness flashed through Bob's eyes.
Although she felt a little bit uneasy, Rachel bit the bullet and said, "You are the director. If you have anything, just tell me."
"Here's the thing," said Bob with great interest, "Our new movie has just started to shoot, hasn't it? For the sake of publicity, I
think it's necessary for us to hype."
"Hype?" Rachel said, looking at him in surprise.
Bob continued to explain, "Your relationship with Mr. Clark has been on the top search. So this time, I'm going to take some
videos of the daily interaction and daily life between you and Mr. Clark... "
"What? You want to take videos of me and Mr. Clark?" Stunned, Rachel shouted.
Bob instantly nodded and said, "Yes, you two makes a perfect couple. The effect should be excellent. It will definitely be a good
publicity for our new movie?"
Rachel subconsciously glanced at Clark and asked, "Did Mr. Clark agree?"
"Yes, he did." Bob got a little excited and said, "But he said we should ask for your opinion first. As long as you agree, there will
be no other problems!"
Glancing at Clark, Rachel felt shocked. She didn't expect him to agree. 'Should I agree as well?' Rachel asked herself.
