Chapter 848 Mr. Davis, It Will Cause Misunderstandings
Her life was tied to that contract.
She hated those kinds of events, those negotiations, that whole vibe. She just wanted to be alone.
"Do you want to keep going?" Kelvin's voice broke the silence. "It's the ladies' room ahead. I don't think I should go in."
Thessaly stopped abruptly and turned around. "Mr. Davis? You... why are you here?"
She was genuinely surprised.
Kelvin had come to find her personally?
"Honestly, I don't like these events either," Kelvin said, walking up to her with one hand in his pocket. "But Penelope begged me for ages. I came for her."
He rarely attended these business dinners anymore, usually delegating them to the vice president or department heads.
Unless it was absolutely necessary for him to be there, he wouldn't show up.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Davis," Thessaly said. "It's my fault for causing trouble."
"No need to apologize. You didn't do anything wrong."
"Mr. Davis, this favor is too big. I can't repay it."
Kelvin's expression remained indifferent. He always seemed aloof and unreachable in front of other women.
"You don't need to repay it," Kelvin replied. "Penelope has already repaid it for you."
Thessaly looked puzzled.
Penelope repaid the favor for her?
What did that mean?
She didn't quite understand.
Kelvin didn't explain further. He simply said, "My assistant Ryan will follow up with you on the subsequent matters. If you have any questions, you can contact him anytime."
Thessaly lowered her head. "Thank you."
"Is the dress uncomfortable?" Kelvin asked. "Not used to it, right?"
She was surprised he noticed. Thessaly replied, "Yeah, my agent brought it over at the last minute for me to change into."
She usually wore evening gowns for events, parties, or ceremonies. It was part of her job.
In her daily life, she preferred comfort and leaned towards a casual, sporty style. She wouldn't wear such tight, revealing clothes.
Thessaly pulled the collar up, trying to cover her shoulders and chest.
At that moment, a men's suit jacket was handed to her.
Thessaly looked up at the man in front of her. "Mr. Davis, this..."
"Put it on."
"It's not appropriate, Mr. Davis. People might misunderstand."
"Penelope won't misunderstand," Kelvin said. "Our relationship won't be affected by a jacket."
They had been through so many trials.
They trusted each other.
Besides, Penelope had asked him to help Thessaly with her contract.
She probably considered Thessaly a friend. Her friend was his friend.
Hearing Kelvin's words, Thessaly took the jacket and put it on.
The men's suit jacket was a bit large on her, but it gave her a sense of security.
However, neither Kelvin nor Thessaly noticed that a camera in the corner was aimed at them, continuously capturing the moment.
There were paparazzi!
These paparazzi were different from those who had secretly photographed Lucy. They specialized in the entertainment industry, knew how to find angles, create atmospheres, and stir up scandals, capturing moments that sparked imagination!
For example, when Kelvin handed over the jacket.
Or when Thessaly put it on, and Kelvin instinctively adjusted the hem.
In the paparazzi's lens, with a slight angle adjustment and a blurred background, it looked like Kelvin was personally helping Thessaly put on his jacket!
"Mr. Davis, if I wear your jacket back to the private room, it will be even harder to explain," Thessaly sighed. "They're all used to dinners involving business deals. They'll definitely think we have that kind of relationship."
She didn't mind much. She had a clear conscience and was single.
But Penelope was different. She had a family and children.
Kelvin asked, "Do you think we will go back?"
Thessaly thought for a moment and stayed silent.
"Going back would be unusual. Not going back is normal," Kelvin said. "They've probably already left."
"Mr. Davis..."
"If you try to explain our relationship, they won't believe you. They might even think you're showing off."
"But," Thessaly looked into his eyes, "Mr. Davis, are you just going to let them misunderstand?"
Kelvin said calmly, "As long as we're innocent, I don't care what they think. You should understand that their assumptions can benefit you. You can gain real advantages."
In other words, if the agency didn't transfer Thessaly's contract to Kelvin, in the future, considering Kelvin's influence, no one in the company would dare to neglect or mistreat her.
Thessaly understood these principles.
Looking at the handsome and wealthy man in front of her, Thessaly's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
Previously, all her knowledge of Kelvin came from the internet.
His love and hate with Penelope, his hair turning white overnight for her, and now he had children.
In LA, there was a saying that any woman who met Kelvin would fall for him.
Thessaly hadn't believed it before, but now, she was moved.
But she quickly suppressed this thought!
How could she think like that?
He was married! A family man! Penelope had been so kind to her. How could she have such thoughts?
"Thank you, Mr. Davis." Thessaly looked away. "If my contract is transferred to Davis Group, in the next twenty years, I will..."
Kelvin interrupted her. "If I get your contract, it will become a piece of waste paper. I won't use it to bind you. You can start your own studio and manage your work. If you need help, I can provide it."
He didn't want her contract!
He didn't want to gain anything from her through the contract!
He was simply helping her.
Saying it would be transferred to Davis Group for Adoring Cupid was just an excuse to deal with the agency.
Being under Davis Group's name would make things easier for Thessaly, with fewer obstacles.
Because in LA, no one would mess with someone under Davis Group's protection!
Faced with this powerful man who solved all her worries and concerns, Thessaly felt she couldn't suppress her feelings!
She was falling for him!
Kelvin was too dangerous!
He exuded charm from every pore!
"Mr. Davis," Thessaly dug her nails into her palm, "I still want to ask, why are you and Mrs. Davis helping me? Is it really just because you're my fans?"
