Chapter 789 - What Are You Doing?!?

"What do you really want, London? Will revealing my secret to the public really make you satisfied? If they find out about my relationship with you, other artists who hate me will eagerly spread rumors that I am the sugar baby to the Schneider Group boss ... They will know that you shot me to stardom and I am a nobody without your help. Everything I have now, my career, and my popularity are all gifted by you, not the result of my hard work ... Will that make you satisfied?" asked L with tears in her face. "If that's what you want, fine ..."

With tears dripping down her cheeks, L took her cellphone and dialed a number.

"What are you doing?" asked London in surprise.

"Hello, good evening. Can I please talk to the Luxe's news editor? This is L." L's voice sounded so calm when she was talking on the phone. "I have something to say to the public."

"Okay, Miss. Please, wait a minute."

Ten seconds later, a cheerful voice came from the other end of the phone.

"Hello, Miss L, how are you? This is Masawe Richards. Congratulations on getting the Rookie of The Year Award Nomination. I can't wait to meet you for an exclusive interview about your last album."

"Is this Masawe Richards?" L asked, confirming the name of the editor on the other end.

"That's right. The operator said earlier that you wanted to say something to the public. Do we get an exclusive?"

"Yes. I want to clarify the rumor that was circulating a few months ago ..."

"Which rumor is it, Miss? You are very famous, and there are quite a lot of rumors circulating about you," Masawe's voice sounded amused.

"L ..." London was still stunned to see L really serious about what she said earlier, and she contacted a journalist from one of the biggest media. At first, he thought L was only bluffing. He knew how much she loved her career and her reputation.

"I would like to clarify the gossip that I was pregnant and giving birth at the Berlin Metropole Hospital." L pursed her lips and held her tears so they wouldn't flow harder. Her voice still sounded calm on the phone. "The gossip is true."

"A ... what?!? Are you serious? Our conversation is being recorded right now and you already gave me the exclusive rights earlier. I just wanted to confirm what you just said ... So the gossip is true?"

Gosh!

London hurriedly turned L's phone off and slammed it to the floor.

"What are you doing?!?" He stared at L with a frustrated expression.

"You really want me to reveal my secret to the public ... That's what you want, isn't it ??" L dismissed London's hand who just slammed her cellphone to the floor. She then bent down and took the phone back from the floor. When L tried to dial Luxe Magazine's telephone number again, London took the cellphone from her hand.

"No need," the man said curtly.

"Give me back my phone!" cried L. She tried to take her cellphone but London only needed to stand up straight and raised his hand as high as possible above his head. L was 25 cm shorter than him and she desperately tried to jump and grab her phone from the man's hand without success. "You cheated! You used your height ..."

"Hey, I'm not cheating, okay..." replied London. "I don't use a special device to help me, just my body. It's not my fault that you are so short."

"Dammit..." L looked so annoyed. She tried to climb up London's body and wrapped her right arm around the man's neck and latch on him like a koala, while her left arm was reaching up to London's right hand that was raised above his head. She was trying so hard to get her phone back.

"Hey ... are you human or koala?" London did not try to pull down L's body, instead, he seemed to enjoy making her angry.

He kept switching the phone from his left hand to his right hand and alternately.

"Aaaaggghhhh ... I hate you !!!" After many attempts and failures, L finally gave up and hit London's shoulder with a look of despair.

"Why are you so inconsistent? Which one is it? Earlier, you said that you actually love me ... but now you told me you hate me. How can I trust you if you are so inconsistent? You keep changing your words..." teased London. L had feigned an angry expression.

Mmm ... London actually really enjoyed it when L climbed up his body and latched on to him like a koala, trying to get her phone back.

The girl was too emotional, and she didn't pay attention to the man's grinning lips. London grinned because he loved L's pleasant scent and her soft b.r.e.a.s.ts hanging on his shoulders as she latched on him. They felt soooo good.

L didn't care about London's question. She was about to jump down, but before her feet could touch the floor, London had held her small waist.

"Let me go ..." L hissed, glared at London. "You always make me angry!"

London couldn't deny that he always secretly enjoyed L scowling and pouting. The girl was really adorable when she was angry. He just couldn't help incite her fury from time to time.

He often complained about L's quick temper, which he said was irritating, but he knew deep inside that L was never angry without reason, and oftentimes, he was the reason.

"Why did you call Luxe just now?" London asked, staring at L whose face was only an inch apart from his face. He still refused to let the girl down.

L looked away. "You know the answer."

"I don't know," answered London.

He knew but he wanted to hear from L's own lips.

"You keep saying that I make you feel worthless because I always preferred other people than you and Lily, that I chose my career over you and Lily ..." Finally, L answered. Her voice sounded hoarse and filled with sadness. "Apparently, the only way to convince you is to tell the whole world about my secret. Are you satisfied now??"

London knew how difficult it was for L to reveal her secret. She was even willing to enter a contract marriage with Danny Swann to protect that secret, but just now, L desperately contacted a journalist to confirm that she was indeed pregnant and gave birth a few months ago.

London looked at L with a look of disbelief.

As it turned out, L did love him...
