Chapter 1252 Adrian Comes to Suncrest City
Penelope questioned firmly, "Why can't we get married? We like each other, and you don't have a family, and I don't have a boyfriend. Why can't the two of us get married? Or is it, Finnian, that in these three years we've been together, you've fallen for another actress?"
"No, the only one I've been with is you."
"Then why?"
"Penelope, you're young and beautiful, but I don't want to get married, whether it's with you or anyone else."
Penelope forced a stiff smile.
Finnian held Penelope's hand, gently patting her back with his other hand. "Didn't I tell you this three years ago? You knew this."
"Yes, I knew." At this moment, Penelope just found it amusing.
She knew Finnian was someone who wouldn't get married.
When she first entered the entertainment industry, she didn't know anyone, and Finnian was kind to her. She was moved, feeling warmth from having someone to rely on.
But now, the warmth was gone.
Only coldness remained.
Finnian's fingers gently patted her back. "Penelope, let's not talk about this topic anymore, okay?"
Penelope's lips trembled, and she forced a smile. "Okay."
Finnian smiled. "I knew you would understand me, Penelope."
At that moment, there was a knock on the door.
"Mr. Harrington, Mr. Howard is here."
Finnian was taken aback. "Mr. Howard? Who is Mr. Howard?"
He didn't recall any investor or producer from Dynamic Entertainment named Mr. Howard.
The assistant reminded him, "It's Adrian."
Finnian's expression changed instantly, and Penelope was also stunned.
Who had come?
Adrian had come to the set?
"Mr. Howard, Mr. Howard, why didn't you let me know you were coming so I could greet you properly?"
This wasn't the first time Finnian had seen Adrian, but their previous encounters were at company annual meetings where Adrian was surrounded by people. Finnian had only seen him from a distance and never had the chance to speak with him.
Now, this powerful man from Vachilit was standing right in front of him, and Finnian's voice trembled.
Penelope was even more shocked.
What an outstanding man.
Words couldn't describe him.
He stood about 20 feet away, dressed in a black suit, tall and slender with broad shoulders and a narrow waist.
He was slightly bowing his head, seemingly focused on adjusting his cufflinks, which gleamed faintly.
His entire demeanor was cold and upright.
When he looked up, his gaze was icy, his face stern, yet exceptionally handsome.
He was more impressive than any male celebrity Penelope had seen in the entertainment industry.
Those stars adored by fans were nothing compared to Adrian. His looks and aura were top-notch.
Penelope's face turned a bit red.
She clutched her chest.
After so many years in the entertainment industry, she never thought her heart would race so fast for a stranger.
Of course, what woman wouldn't like a man like this?
Who wouldn't go crazy for someone like him?
But Penelope knew that such a perfect man existed only in her fantasies.
Adrian raised his eyes slightly, his gaze sweeping over the bowing Finnian. "Where is my wife?"
"She's filming right now, just inside. It's a few minutes' walk to the set, and they're currently recording sound for the scene."
