She Becomes A Hot Sensation After A Scandalous Affair
Chapter 56

Chapter 56: Chapter 56

"Break up with your boyfriend, and I will go public with you."

That line echoed in Madeline’s head like a spell because it reminded her of Lance, who told her to break up with her ’boyfriend.’

At this point, both are her ’boyfriends,’ and both want her to break up with the other.

Unfortunately, she was already bound by Lance’s contract, and a contract with Lancelot Grant shouldn’t be taken lightly.

She didn’t want to have a breach of contract and make Lance angry. She also didn’t want to betray Lance, at least not until he broke the contract.

On top of that...

Madeline stared at Zane, who was eager for her answer.

Though Madeline couldn’t gauge how deep Lance’s power was, she was able to gauge the danger in Zane.

This man...

Zane had an incredible amount of crazy fans, and they would try to poison Madeline if they found out they were actually dating beyond this reality show.

This reality show was meant to boost her infamy, but she was smart enough not to make the same mistake she did with Jonathan Hale.

"I can’t go with you, Zane." Madeline rejected him again. "And the reason is still the same. I won’t cheat on my boyfriend, and I don’t want you to waste your talent for a woman like me. You have so much going for you in the future."

Zane scoffed. He returned to his previous spot and leaned at the corner of the jacuzzi, staring at Madeline, who looked steadfast as if her loyalty to this so-called boyfriend was so strong.

"I don’t understand you, Maddy—"

"—And don’t call me Maddy off-set. It’s only for my boyfriend... and family members," Madeline said.

Zane’s lips thinned as he got annoyed, but he took a deep breath and nodded. "I don’t understand you, Madeline. That boyfriend of yours is obviously not really in love with you. How could he put you in a difficult situation if he’s actually in love?"

"You’re nothing but a toy, but why are you so loyal to him?"

’That’s because we’re bound by contract,’ Madeline replied in her heart. ’I can’t just break the contract, and Lance is a much safer choice compared to you, Mr. Humble with crazy fans.’

If Madeline could be truly honest, there was one more reason why she would pick Lance over Zane. But she thought it was too absurd and perverted to even think about.

"I love him, that’s all," Madeline said. "Maybe because of the atmosphere in this jacuzzi, or maybe because of the game from yesterday, but you’re just speaking crazy right now, Zane. So please, pull yourself together and think straight."

"You know this will not stop me from going after you, right?" Zane stated firmly. "I’ll still find a way to show you I am a much better boyfriend than he is."

"You don’t take a no for an answer, do you?"

"Not when I’m into you," Zane said. "Well, let’s just enjoy the jacuzzi now. It’s our reward anyway."

"It’s more of your reward, precisely, since I didn’t do anything yesterday."

"Your presence is enough help. I don’t want to lose when you’re on my team, naturally," Zane chuckled. "Just keep teaming up with me, and we will win."

Madeline was glad Zane confirmed he would be her ally for the show. She didn’t want to get kicked around by the other cast members who hated her because it would ruin her momentum as this infamous celebrity.

After their jacuzzi session ended, Madeline took a shower first and then tucked herself on the bed after wearing the pajamas prepared for them.

"I will sleep on the sofa," Zane said.

"I can sleep on the sofa," Madeline offered. "I’m shorter, so I fit the sofa better."

"No, just stay tucked under that blanket, or I won’t be able to sleep," Zane said as he dried his hair and lay on the sofa. "Good night, Madeline."

"Um... night, Zane..."

With that, both of them fell asleep quickly.

Though they didn’t do anything in their honeymoon bungalow, the staff had a different idea.

"Could it be that Zane doesn’t want to be recorded while doing it, so he helped Madeline destroy all the recording devices in the bungalow?" The film crew wondered.

"Could be. He is a megastar. A sex tape will be a huge problem," the other added.

"Or maybe... just maybe, they don’t do anything? Maybe they just have a wholesome night, that’s all."

There was a long silence between the staff, followed by exploding laughter that filled their room.

"That’s just impossible! Have you seen Madeline Rose? She might be a huge bitch, but I’d kill just to have a night with her!"

"I can just tape her mouth, so she won’t nag like a bitch while I fuck her!"

"I bet that’s what Zane is doing right now!"

The rambunctious waves of laughter continued as they kept joking about Madeline in a degrading manner, not realizing that Madeline and Zane did absolutely nothing there.

Lance was too drunk and continued sleeping until late in the afternoon. But it was Saturday anyway, so he didn’t care as he snoozed the alarm a few times until he got a call.

"Ugh, who fucking calls on Saturday?" Lance complained as he checked the caller ID.

He frowned, then picked up the call.

—

"What is it, Valerie?" Lance muttered while his eyes were still half closed.

"I already sent your voice note to Madeline. Do you want to hear her response?"

"What voice note?"

"The lovey-dovey voice notes you sent when you were piss drunk last night," Valerie said. "But I guess you already forgot about it."

Lance opened his eyes immediately. He knew that he was angry at Madeline, who dared to kiss Zane on the video highlight last night. Unfortunately, other than arguing with Valerie about it, he didn’t remember the rest.

But now that he had slowly regained consciousness, he finally realized the consequences of his actions in setting Madeline up in this reality show.

"What did I do last night?" Lance asked.
