Chapter 36 Who Was He?
Suzy drove off to some unknown place. Just as she was about to return to the villa, her phone rang again.
She glanced over and saw that it was not Evan but Victor. She put on her headphones and picked up the call.
“Hello, Victor.”
“Miss Carters, do you have time? About the show, I have something to talk to you about.”
“Yes.” After thinking for a while, she continued, “Can you come out? I’ll pick you up for dinner.”
“Okay, I’ll take a taxi to find you myself.”
“No, you are very popular on the Internet now. If you are not careful, you will be recognized. Wait, I will pick you up.”
Without Levy making trouble in the program group, the first two episodes of Victor’s program went very smoothly. After the program was broadcast, Victor became even more popular. He was already in the top five of “The Shining Youth.”Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive © material.
Soon, Suzy arrived at the entrance of the program group. After Victor got in the car, Suzy looked at him and said distressedly, “It’s only been two weeks. You’ve lost a lot of weight! What do you want to eat? I’ll take you there.”
“It’s up to you.” Victor smiled.
Suzy thought for a while, and finally, they chose a good restaurant. The waiter at the front desk led them to the second floor.
At the same time, two men came downstairs, and a low mocking voice came.
“Victor, what a coincidence!”
Suzy looked up and saw Earl and a boy with red hair who had spoken earlier.
Victor ignored them.
Earl also sized up Suzy with a mysterious smile on his face.
Suzy indifferently glanced at it before directly walking away. She arrived at her seat, handed the menu to Victor, and asked, “Who is that person following Earl? Do you know him?”
“George Halley, Dreaming Pictures’ artist, is also a contestant in our show.”
Suzy didn’t watch the show. She only browsed through Victor’s stage performance on the Internet. When she heard Victor’s reply and nodded, she was about to pick up a glass of water to take a sip, but her eyes suddenly froze. “Tell me, what’s his name?”
Victor was a bit confused, repeating himself. “George Halley.”
Suzy pursed her lips and asked with a serious look, “How is his popularity in this variety show?”
“His singing and dancing are not bad.” Victor remained silent for two seconds, then continued, “The center position of the debut is the competition between him and me.”
Suzy understood. A trace of a smile flashed across her face.
“Don’t worry! I will send you to the leading position.”
Victor was stunned. With a somewhat worried expression, he asked, “Ah? Miss Carters, what are you trying to do?”
“Don’t think too much. I won’t do anything to George. Just perform yourself well on the show.”
After saying that, Suzy ordered a few more dishes.
For some reason, she felt as if someone was staring at her from behind. After Suzy handed the menu to the waiter, she turned around to look.
After that, something surprised Suzy all of a sudden.
Coincidentally, Evan was also eating here, and a man and a woman were at the same table.
There were several tables between them. Evan was also looking at Suzy with a gloomy look.
For some unknown reason, Suzy instantly felt slightly guilty.
“Miss Carters, what’s wrong?”
When Victor’s voice sounded, Suzy quickly turned around, wondering what she felt guilty about!
She smiled faintly and said, “It’s okay. By the way, what did you tell me on the phone just now? Did George bully you in the program team?”
As she spoke, Suzy’s phone rang. She picked it up and saw that it was a WhatsApp message from Evan.

Evan sent a simple question mark to her. Suzy chose to ignore it and looked toward Victor.
“No.” Victor shook his head. George often targeted him in the program group, but for Victor, it was nothing.
“For next week’s stage, the program group will invite assisted performing guests to cooperate with us on the stage.”
Suzy nodded, pondered for a moment, and said, “I don’t know anyone good at singing and dancing, but you are very popular now. This show is also very hot, and many seniors should be willing to come. Do you have choices in your mind? I will contact them.”
Suzy drank a mouthful of water as he spoke and heard Victor reply, “You.”
As soon as Victor finished speaking, Suzy almost choked and looked at Victor in confusion.
“Me?…”
Victor nodded and said without the slightest bit of guilt, “I’m a little socially scared. I don’t want to cooperate with someone I don’t know.”
Suzy was speechless.
She finally understood. Victor had originally told his manager to contact her again. No wonder he wanted to see her in person!
“But I’m not familiar with singing and dancing.”
Victor smiled faintly. “It’s fine, Miss Carters. You’re so beautiful. It’ll be enough for you to stand on the stage when the time comes.”
Suzy didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I have quite a few anti-fans.”
Due to the engagement ceremony, Suzy’s anti-fans were very few. On the contrary, Teresa had a lot more anti-fans.
Seeing Victor’s expression, Suzy was caught in a dilemma. At this moment, Victor’s cell phone was ringing nonstop.
Victor glanced at it. It was a message from a contestant who had a good relationship with him.
[Fuck! The assisted artist that George invited is Teresa! Awesome! As an actress, does she know how to sing and dance?]
Victor was silent for two seconds before he said to Suzy, “Teresa will also be on this program, together with George.”
As soon as Victor finished speaking, Suzy instantly said, “Alright! I’ll go.”
For no other reason, Teresa was also there. She might be playing dirty tricks behind the scenes!
Suzy had to protect the Top future idol!
Victor immediately smiled. “Thank you, Miss Carters.”
After the meal, Suzy returned Victor to the hotel arranged by the variety show before returning to the villa.
It was already dark, and it was drizzling outside. Because of a traffic jam on the road, Suzy only returned home about an hour later.
After entering the password and the living room, Suzy had just turned on the light when she was startled by the person sitting on the sofa.
“Why are you here?”
Evan was holding a half-lit cigarette in his hand. He looked up at Suzy indifferently.
“Why can’t I be here?”
Suzy pursed her lips and didn’t say anything. She thought to herself: She’d change the password later! She couldn’t let Evan come to her home so easily.
She changed into her slippers and walked over. Evan asked coldly, “Who is he?”
This kind of questioning tone made Suzy very unhappy in her heart. She laughed the next second and carelessly replied, “A friend.”
Suzy felt a little cold. She picked up the remote control on the coffee table and prepared to turn on the air conditioner. She was caught off guard the next second and pulled into Evan’s arms.
“You…”
Before she could finish her sentence, Evan grabbed the back of her head with his slender hand and bent down to kiss her lips.
Suzy’s entire body went rigid. A faint smell of tobacco and alcohol wafted over, and her mind went blank.
