Chapter 47 An Addiction to Intimacy (1/2)

”It will be a new experience for you, ” Sonny continued speaking as he stepped through the office doors. ”You can help on the set and learn from me. I might even let you take some photographs.” As soon as Sonny had finished speaking, he nodded at his assistant who then opened the car door for him. Sonny got in the car before Jean could reply.

Jean was in a trance. She couldn't believe how her first day at work was turning out. First the gossip and now this. 'No, no! It can't be!' she thought.

”What's wrong? You don't want to come?” When Sonny saw that Jean was still outside the car, he asked with concern.

”No... boss, I...” Jean didn't know what to say. Sonny had accepted her as his apprentice so it was normal for him to take her along to learn.

The Qi Group's staff were already waiting at the gate with an umbrella.

Jean smiled at the consideration shown by the Qi Group's staff members. Though they had only come for a promotional film shoot, the staff had prepared for the rain.

However, Jean's smile faded when she realized that the service was only for Sonny. Jean and Sonny's assistant had to run into the building without the protection of umbrellas.

”Come on. Why didn't they bring more umbrellas since they are here to welcome us?” Jean mumbled once inside the building. She frowned as she patted the rain from her clothes. Still walking, she didn't see where she was going. The moment she lifted her head, she ran into a tall person.

She rubbed her throbbing head and looked up. Jean froze when she realized she h
