My Flirtacious Husband novel Chapter 529

What?

Joash, who was standing at the side, widened his eyes and mouth in disbelief.

Bruce was taken aback as well. Then, he tugged on his mask and asked, “Yes, I do. Ms. Rachford, would you like to take a look?”

Joash was dumbstruck.

Just then, the elevator arrived on the chosen floor, and the doors opened automatically.

It was then Genevieve said, “I was just asking.”

Before stepping out, she glanced at Bruce out of the corner of her eyes and remarked, “You have nice hands too.”

Once Genevieve was a distance away, Joash walked out of the elevator with Bruce and said in an odd tone, “Mr. Gable, say, Ms. Rachford complimented you on your slim waist and nice hands. Do you think...”

After all, Bruce was a good-looking man. On the set, actresses would always take the opportunity to touch him all over.

Bruce looked at Genevieve's departing figure, and his dark eyes glinted.

“How would I know?”

Upon entering her office, Genevieve thought of how she had scrutinized that artist and what she had said to him. At that point, she could not help but wonder if he might think badly of her.

Something crossed her mind, and she was about to summon her secretary when someone knocked on her door.

Steven walked in with a cup of coffee.

At first, Genevieve was startled to see him, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise. “Steven, what are you doing here?”

“Since the change of leadership in Central Group, there's been a major restructuring within the company,” he said. “I don't wish to stay there any longer, so I quit. Right now, I'm working in the security department, in charge of the company's security.”

With a smile on his face, he asked, “Ms. Rachford, don't you welcome me here?”

Genevieve promptly responded, “Of course not. But, aren't you a little overqualified for the job? Do you want me to—”

Steven shook his head. “I'm sick and tired of those high-intensity jobs. Now that I'm getting on in years, I want to take it easy.”

Since he liked his new job, she decided to let him be.

Before returning, she was worried about Steven's future after Armand left since Steven was his subordinate and bodyguard. Never did she expect him to end up working for her.

Did I use to love that man this much?

I think he was the leading actor in the movie “For Elise” and even won the best actor award because of that movie. Johanna mentioned that his contract was ending soon and that she wished to have him join Genevieve Orsi. So, the artist I met in the elevator earlier was Bruce.

Her secretary asked out of curiosity, “Ms. Rachford, why are you asking about him? Did you find out about his argument with Mr. Dixon?”

Genevieve raised her brows. “He argued with Mr. Dixon? Why?”

Seeing that her superior was clueless, the secretary answered, “A producer of a romance movie contacted Mr. Dixon to ask if Bruce is available. Apparently, the remuneration is very attractive, but Bruce turned it down.”

Genevieve was displeased to hear that. “He should be happy to be offered jobs. As an artist, what makes him think he has the right to pick and choose?”

“That's because, in this romance film, there will be intimate scenes. The director is very particular and wants it to be realistic. Therefore, he refuses to let the actors use substitutes.”

The secretary continued, “Last month, when Bruce resumed his work, he told Mr. Dixon that he would require substitutes in all his future movies or dramas if intimate scenes are involved. Otherwise, he won't accept the jobs. That's why Mr. Dixon was furious when Bruce rejected the role.”

Genevieve was puzzled. “Isn't he an actor? Why does he have so many demands? Can't he even touch the actresses' hands? Has he gotten himself a girlfriend recently?”

The secretary hesitated for a moment before answering, “No. He detests women now.”
