Chapter <b>480 </b>Sounds Almost <b>Absurd </b>
<b>“</b><b>She </b>really is exactly as <b>you </b>said a bit dangerous…” Easton curled his lips <b>into </b><b>a </bzy smile if you haunt <b>warned </b>me ahead of time, I probably would’ve fallen right into her trap
Jean’s <b>eyes </b>widened in curiosity. “What did she do?”
“I mean–how exactly was she nning to trap you?” Jean added quickly, staring at Easton <b>with </b>wide, intrigued eyes.
What kind of tactic had Vienna used to actually leave Easton this rattled, enough <b>to </b>say he’d <b>almost </b><b>been </b>taken down?
It had to be something unconventional…
Ordinary tricks wouldn’t evene close to working on Easton.
Hearing what she was thinking, and realizing this was the version of himself that lived in Jean’s mind, Easton couldn’t help but feel a little pleased.
“She somehow got involved with my agent,” Easton said after a brief pause, his tone light.
“What?!”
Jean’s eyes flew open,pletely caught off guard.
She hadn’t expected <i>that </i>to be the truth behind it all—
It really did sound a bit absurd.
“And then?” Jean frowned, unable to hold back her impatience. “What happened next?”
She looked like a little kid pestering her older brother to finish telling a story, the urgency in her eyes impossible to miss.
Easton found her expression absolutely adorable. He pressed his lips together and said nothing, deliberately keeping her in suspense.
“You-“Jean reached out and tickled his palm, halfughing in exasperation. “Are you gonna tell me or not!”
Easton caught her hand, a soft smile spreading across his face. “Alright, alright, I’ll tell you.”
“At first, I didn’t know anything was going on.” His rxed expression faded slightly, reced by something more serious. “That agent had been with me for years. I trusted him a lot. He was someone Irelied on.”
“So I never would’ve suspected him.”
Jean nodded in understanding. “If someone close to you gets pulled in like that, it’s really hard to notice. You don’t think to question them.7
Easton gave a small nod. “Exactly.”
“My agent… he’s always been calm and capable. I still don’t understand-” His <b>eyes </b>darkened in confusion. “How Vienna managed to get to him. He’s been in the industry forever. He’s seen more <b>beautiful </b>women than he can count. It’s not like he’s the type to fall for a pretty face.”
Chapter 480 Saints Almost Abounda
<b>Jean </b><b>shook </b>her head and poured “Some <b>things </b>are just fimpossible to explin. Like ind <b>gorgeous </b><b>wives </b>for totally <b>average </b><b>mistresses</b>. Attraction has <b>nothing </b>to do with looke
Watching <b>her </b><b>make </b>that dead–seriousment. Easton burst outughing.
He gave her hand a gentle squeeze, lips tugging <b>up</b>. “Yeah, you’ve got a point-
“But aren’t you a little too young to know this much?” He squinted at her, half–using, though his voire <b>was </b>still soft and affectionate.
Jean let out an awkwardugh. “Haha–skip that part. Pretend <b>I </b>said nothing…”
Then she shook his hand like a child begging for more. “Come on, keep going! I want to hear <b>the </b>rest
So Easton returned to the story. “Vienna getting close to my agent was one thing–but what caught <b>me </b>off guard was that she wasn’t satisfied with just that. After winning him over, she set her sights <b>on </b><b>me</b>.
