Chapter 358 Doesn’t care about her past Those? Which are those?
Celebrating Larissa’s birthday, the director’s team had already made arrangements, specially letting the others distract her and setting up a venue for her birthday party.
“Larissa, come and accompany me to make a roadmap of what attractions we’re going to visit in the next two days when we’re going to be traveling in the H-country. We’re getting low on funds and have to make a detailed plan.” Sister Xaviera, being the one who drew Larissa away, found something serious to pull her away.
Larissa cooperated with Sister Xaviera, “Yeah.”
Sister Xaviera chose the places, then deliberately showed a distressed look, “Larissa, these two places have to go to buy tickets. These two attraction places usually have a particularly large number of people lining up to buy tickets, we have to go and buy these tickets first.”
“Well, for those two places, why don’t we go and line up separately to buy the tickets, in groups of three, line up and buy them first, play the attractions, and then swap the tickets with the other three.”
“That’s not quite right, if we split it up like that, time is being saved, but the point of us traveling out together is lost.”
Jerrold, who was next to him, spoke up at the right time, “Otherwise, just buy the tickets for one attraction first, and I’ll go.”
The boy was the one in charge of running errands in their program.
“That won’t do, you two boys, worked so hard yesterday, you almost got a heat stroke, so it’s better for Larissa and I to buy the tickets together today.” Sister Xaviera said.
After discussing with Sister Xaviera, Larissa and Sister Xaviera went to the attraction to line up.
By the time the tickets were purchased, it was already an hour later, Sister Xaviera took Larissa to a shady place to rest, “Larissa, I’ll give them a call.”
Sister Xaviera took out her cell phone and dialed, only asking, “Is everything ready?”
“Ready.”
After Sister Xaviera hung up, Sister Xaviera pulled Larissa inside, which was a decorated venue that said, ‘Happy Birthday Larissa.’
Everyone swarmed around, “Happy Birthday Sister Larissa! Happy Birthday Sister Larissa …”
“Thank you, thank you all.” Larissa took the flowers Jerrold was holding.
The whole room was decorated pretty much as Larissa had imagined it would be, she looked around out of the corner of her eye to see if Nathanael Lora had been brought over by Phoebe.
Ella came over with a glass of wine and handed it to Larissa, “Come on everyone, have a drink and happy birthday sis Larissa.”
Larissa smiled and took the glass from Ella.
“Sister Larissa, don’t force yourself if you can’t drink, I can drink for you.” Jerrold said thoughtfully as he stood beside Larissa.
Olivia next to her also noticed that Jerrold was not normal, although he was attentive to everyone and took care of everyone, he was particularly attentive to Larissa, “Captain Jerrold is really a good captain, caring about Sister Larissa so much.”
There was an ulterior motive in the words, everyone present could hear it, but Olivia revealed a harmless look, as if she was simply speaking without any other intention.
“Sister Larissa, don’t be afraid of getting drunk, today you are the big birthday girl, let’s not get drunk. If we all get drunk, our program will definitely be a hit. The title will be: a bunch of celebrities playing drunk without caring about their image. Haha, it’s funny even thinking about it.” Ella laughed so hard that she arched her back.
At this moment, a voice suddenly came, “Stop recording, turn off the cameras.”
This voice, was not using a microphone, directly shouted, the voice Larissa could hear was Nathanael Lora’s voice.
Seeing that Nathanael Lora’s face did not look good, Larissa walked towards him suspiciously, “What’s wrong? We’re still recording the program?”
Everyone present, listened to the director’s call to turn the cameras off first. The director was stunned, this Phoebe had brought President Nathanael over, and President Nathanael had been following him around, overseeing the filming.
Suddenly Nathanael Lora got angry and really scared him.
“No more recording.” Nathanael Lora was in a rage, and even more angry at Larissa for this attitude.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
He had just watched as another man lent her flowers and hugged her, someone else handed her a drink, and that man stood beside her, next to her shoulder.
Nathanael Lora eyed Jerrold and lifted his thin lips, “Larissa is my fiancée and I don’t like people getting too close to her, especially men.”
“Director, I’ll take her first.” Nathanael Lora glances at the director and pulls Larissa to leave.
Larissa struggled, “Nathanael Lora, this is still recording the program, you …”
The strength between men and women was already disparate, and she didn’t have much strength today, and her back was still particularly sore, so she had to be given out by Nathanael Lora being given out.
The people who are left behind are all timid, none of them have the courage to catch up and follow the past, especially Phoebe, she obviously looked at Nathanael Lora that attitude is not good, worried that Larissa will have something, but also do not dare to follow the past to see.
Larissa looked at Nathanael Lora, “Still recording the program! What do you mean by that?”
“What do you mean you don’t like other men getting too close to me. Come on you tell me which man you think I’m unclean with again.” A self-deprecating sneer spread across Larissa’s lips.
There were two topics she couldn’t talk about with Nathanael Lora, Ewenny and him saying she was unclean with other men.
Because it would make her think of the humiliation Nathanael Lora had given her that day, taking her into the bathroom, where she was covered in blood, crying and begging him, and he had left her there impassively.
Nathanael Lora saw Larissa like this and tightened his brow and lowered his voice saying, “I didn’t say you were unclean with another man.”
And he knew why she was so angry.
“I haven’t disliked you, and since I decided to marry you, it means I don’t care about the past ones.” Nathanael Lora met her eyes and soothed her.
Didn’t care about those of her past? Which ones were those?
Oh, she’d given it a miss, Nathanael Lora had never thought she was a good, clean woman, had always assumed she’d been stained by the showbiz vat, had had relationships with other men, had even sold her body, or else on that day he wouldn’t have watched her bleed and assumed it was a miscarriage she’d had.
Coolness spreading in the bottom of her heart, Larissa’s gaze became hollow, her voice faint, “Then what exactly do you want to do? Nothing else, just let me go back to taping the show.”
“There is. I want to celebrate your birthday. For you alone.” Nathanael Lora wanted to give her a proper birthday.
It had been prepared in a bit of a hurry, but he figured that she would still be happy with anything he had prepared with care, and he wasn’t really happy with the gifts and wanted to cheer her up with companionship.
Larissa didn’t say anything, just lifted her eyelids to look at Nathanael Lora in silence.
She assumed he knew her birthday, but was just like those who didn’t know her and assumed the date on the tweet was her birthday.
Nathanael Lora pulled out a box from his body, “I found this necklace with a pattern of dollars on it. I know you like money, but you haven’t spent any of the money I’ve given you, so I don’t think you like money as much as you like the security it gives you.”
“Do you like this?” Nathanael Lora looked at the expression on Larissa’s face, her eyes fleeting as if she didn’t want to let go of any emotion on her face.
Looking at the necklace in this little box in front of her, Larissa felt okay, but the way Nathanael Lora said it, she sounded like she liked it. A moment ago, she was still lost, thinking that he didn’t know her, not even her birthday, but now she felt that he still had a go at knowing her, or at least knowing that she was into money, was into the sense of security that it brought her.
When Larissa didn’t say anything, Nathanael Lora asked her again, “Shall I bring it to you?”
“Uh-huh.” Larissa answered.
Nathanael Lora put the necklace on her, a little awkwardly, taking a long moment to put it on her, admiring the necklace in her neck, he smiled with satisfaction, “It suits you.”
After a pause, Nathanael Lora added, “I have reservations at the restaurant, and a movie to go to. Don’t you like me to accompany you? I’ll accompany you all this time. I’ll accompany you to shoot the program together, and when your program is finished, we’ll go back together.”
Listening to Nathanael Lora say these words, the sense of loss in Larissa’s heart had disappeared by now, even if Nathanael Lora didn’t know about her birthday, but he said that he would be here with her all the time afterward, and could still give her her real birthday. She’d tell him again when it was time to go to bed today.
That way, she could have a present from him twice a year and him spending her birthday with her.
A smile spread across Larissa’s face at the thought.
“It’s still a little early for dinner, let’s go watch a movie first.” Nathanael Lora pulls Larissa and heads for the car parked out front.
Larissa took two steps as he pulled her along, then suddenly stopped in her tracks again, “Wait a minute. The program is still being recorded and everyone has been busy for a long time getting me ready to celebrate my birthday, if I just leave like this, it’ll affect the filming of their program.”
She didn’t even know how to shoot next, she had to discuss with the director and simply finish recording the footage of her birthday celebration.
Halfway through the recording she just left, and her sense of duty forbade her to do such a thing.
Nathanael Lora didn’t want to hear her whining and just picked Larissa up and put her in his convertible, “Half a day less won’t hurt them. The director will see to it, so you don’t have to worry about it.”
“No way. You don’t drive yet, I’ll call the director and discuss it.” Larissa was still relieved and pressed Nathanael Lora’s hand.
Nathanael Lora watched as Larissa held him down with one hand and pulled out her cell phone to make a call with the other, and he simply jerked it away.
“Nathanael Lora, you … you give me the phone.” Larissa looked for him to ask for her phone but he pressed her phone back and drove away, she spoke anxiously, “Nathanael Lora, you can’t do this, you hurry up and give me the phone first.”
Nathanael Lora turned her face to look at her, “Your seat belt, hurry up and fasten it. A birthday has to be a good birthday, anything else, we’ll deal with it after the birthday.”
The car drove up, because it was a convertible sports car, Larissa’s hair was blown into a mess, and the speed of the car was too fast, she was worried about her own safety, she could only compromise and hurry to fasten her own seatbelt first, after all, life is most important.
