Chapter 338 - His ex

Diana smiled and stood up from the bed.

"You all have worked hard today. If you can't make it home, the company prepared a hotel for everyone."

They were shooting at night, and they had a shoot the next day, so it was best the stay at the hotel so they could come in time.

"Alright, thank you."

Diana nodded. She turned to Michael with a grin.

"where you jealous?" she asked and Michael cleared his throat and walked away to go get changed.

Diana laughed as she shook her head, he was so cute.

As she walked out of the changing room after changing her dress, she ran into David.

A smile stretched her lips,

"Oh David…"

"You did well today." He said, crossing his arm in front of him.

"Thank you." Diana nodded.

"Are you free tomorrow? Can we hang out?"

She smiled and shook her head,

"Sorry, I'm not. I'm going out with someone else."

"Michael?" David asked and Diana nodded shyly.

"Ouch, seems I'm a bit late." He laughed.

She laughed lightly, David paused for a second,

"You two a thing?"

Diana looked at him. She would have covered it like she did with others but David seemed to have taken an interest in her so she would tell him the truth.

"Yeah, we are."

She caught the disappointment in his eyes and she was puzzled as to why.

They shot a movie in the past and he didn't make a move on her, even a week before he joined them, he didn't even call. Why was he disappointed that she wasn't single?

"Oh okay. Seems my shot missed the target."

Diana laughed, "Sorry."

She didn't know what else to tell him. Well at least he didn't go sticking around her like that Melissa was doing with Michael. But strangely she had been cool these few days, she had respected herself, Diana prayed it would remain that way.

"See you later then,"

She nodded, "you too."

She watched him walk away and then she saw Michael standing a few meters away from her.

She waved at him and walked to his side.

"Babe, do we stay at the hotel or go home."

She held his arm and whispered in his ear.

"what do you choose?" Michael pulled her to his front, his hands around her waists.

"Mm… let's go home."

She peeked at him and he nodded.

"Okay."

After bidding the others goodbye, he held her hand as they walked out of the house.

"Damn, I didn't realize how hungry I was until now." Diana pouted as she rubbed her stomach with her hands making Michael laugh,

"We'll stop by a restaurant before we get home." He said and she nodded happily.

"So you were jealous earlier."

"lord, must you bring it up?" Michael asked, rolling his eyes.

Diana laughed, "So you were jealous!"

"I was. Yeah. I was. I don't like him at all, he paused, "you know he has eyes for you, right?"

He was not bothered by David, he wasn't even going to win Diana over, she was his already. But then, he didn't like that he was chasing her even when he knew she was taken.

"Yeah, I know."

Diana replied and Michael raised his eyebrow,

"Really?"

"Well, he told me to go out with him tomorrow."

"what did you say?"

Diana cleared her throat,

" I told him I was already going out with you."

"Everyone on set suspects we're together, that's if they don't already know, I don't know why he still wants to chase you, tsh."

"Well, he asked me if we're a thing."

Michael looked at her instantly,

"he did?"

She nodded, "yeah and I told him that we are. I think he's a nice person, some guys wouldn't give up but he did."

" That's great news. " Michael smiled.

Diana squnited at him when she saw the smile on his face.

"You're happy?"

"of course. At least I won't worry about him coming near you anymore." He chuckled, " To think he had the guts to ask that he show me how to kiss you, that was so damn annoying. "

Diana laughed, then she remembered what he said during filming. Was he thinking she still didn't want him to sleep with her? She thought.

Maybe she should tell him that she wouldn't stop him if he wanted to touch her, in fact she actually wanted him to touch her.

She turned to speak to him, but Michael beat her to it.

"We're here."

He said as he drove in a parking space, turning off the car, he walked to her side and held the door open for her.

Diana smiled and stepped out holding onto his hand.

"You said something during filming…"

Her words were cut off when a tiny voice called out.

"Michael?" Diana turned towards the direction of the voice with a crease in her brows.

"Michael is that you?"

The woman, in her twenties, tall and slim like a model, she was wearing a top with a short skirt and a thigh high boots on her legs.

Her smile stretched her lips when she saw it was him.

"Oh its really you." She beamed happily and walked to him, embracing him in a quick hug and before he could react she had let go of him.

Diana was surprised. What just happened? Or more correctly what was happening?

Now she was closer to her, she looked Asian, her long black hair flowed down her back and she was exquisite.

"Jade, it's been a while."

Michael replied, he was surprised to see her as she went back to South Korea because of her sick mother.

But she made sure to break up with him before she left, it's been over a year now, he didn't even know when she got back.

Jade slapped him playfully across the chest,

"I missed you! I just came back yesterday, I was going to call but I was so busy with work that I couldn't call."

Just that moment, Jade looked beside Michael,

Diana was a little shorter than both of them, she felt little in front of Jade.

"HI!" Jade waved with a beautiful smile, her blue eyes shone sweetly as she greeted Diana.

Michael held Diana around the waists,

"This is Diana, my girlfriend."

Diana caught the disappointment on Jade's face, but she masked it immediately and still greeted with a smile.

"Hello, I'm Jade Lee, it's nice to meet you. I'm Michael's good friend."

She pointed at Michael when she said it,

"it's nice to meet you too, Jade." Diana smiled at her. Her eyes turned back to Michael instantly,

"I was so glad when I recognized you, you've not changed one bit."

"You too."

"Um, I'm in a hurry, let's catch up later okay?" she said,

"Alright."

Jade smiled and waved at them before hurrying towards her car. Diana didn't move until she had disappeared into the road, then she swallowed and turned to Michael with a smile,

"Let's go and eat."

Michael was surprised, he had expected her to ask him who she was but she was not asking.

After the waiter took their orders, Diana sipped from her glass of wine as they waited for their meal.

"Aren't you going to ask me who she is?"

He finally asked and Diana looked at him.

"I was, but I wanted to ask when we got home, but since you've brought it up, who is she?"

Michael leaned back, resting his weight on one side of his body as he stared at her.

"She was my ex."

She had suspected so. A 'just a friend' wouldn't hug so endearingly. Diana thought in her heart.

"Oh, okay. She was talking about coming back, where from?"

"Well, she's a model in South Korea and she models for companies in America too."

"So how did you both meet?"

"She's half American and half Korean. Her father is an American and mom, a Korean. They had a divorce so she stayed with her dad, only recently did she go back when her mom fell sick."

"Oh," Diana nodded, drinking a mouthful of her wine.

"so why is she back?"

"that I don't know, maybe to continue her career here."

Diana nodded, just that moment, the waiter returned with their meal and she dug into her food.

After a few bites of her meal, she changed the topic immediately. Soon, it was as though they didn't meet Jade at all.

When they got home, Diana got out before Michael could open the door for her.

He walked to her side and kissed her on the lips, then hugged her.

"We broke up before she left and I've not spoken to her ever since. "

Michael said out of nowhere. Diana understood what he was talking about, and she smiled.

"I didn't say anything."

"I know." Michael pinched her chin lightly, "I was just saying."

"Okay, she's very pretty though."

"you're prettier."

"pft, she's tall."

Michael wanted to say she was tall too but that wasn't the case, Diana was average heighted.

"I like short girls."

Diana laughed, "are we going to go in, or are we going to keep arguing?"

Michael held her hand,

"Let's go in."

Diana laughed as he walked forward, holding her hand.

He was just cute.

After showering, She came to join him in his room,

Without saying a word, she hopped on the bed and squeezed him in her arms.

"I'm so sleepy." She yawned, burying her face in his chest, her leg going over him as she heaved a sigh of relief.

Michael chuckled as he watched her sleep without a care, she was putting on a flannel with nothing underneath and hugging him so carefreely like he was a log of wood.

This woman, did she think he was a plank with no feelings or what?
