Lust Contracts 18+ Hunting for Love with My Three Contract Husbands - Chapter 131

131 Superstar Complications

“What is it?” I asked.

EROS seem to hesitate a little which wasn’t at all like him. After a moment of picking his words, he looked directly at me, and I could see the seriousness in his golden eyes.

“Don’t go near him,” EROS said sternly.

Near him? As in the CEO?

“You mean the CEO?” I asked, frankly quite surprised.

“That’s right. Don’t go near him, Elena,” EROS warned again.

I didn’t quite understand why EROS was warning me about this or why he seemed so serious all of a sudden, but I didn’t think that it would be a problem. My work doesn’t have anything to do with the CEO anyways so meeting him today was nothing more than a coincidence.

“Umm…ok. I don’t think I’ll be running into him any time soon either,” I replied with a small laugh as I tried to lighten the heavy mood.

“Right. Just do as I say…” EROS said softly.

…..

“Ok. Well, if there’s nothing else, I should be heading back now. Is it already this late?” I said as I looked at the time on the screen of my mobile phone.

“Wait…” EROS said.

I turned around to see him hesitating as if he had something that he wanted to say. It was getting very late so I better head back to my apartment. Tomorrow was another early day at work.

“Is…something the matter?” I asked, sensing that he seemed disturbed by something.

“Nothing. I’ll drive you,” EROS said before he headed straight for the door.

He was out the door before I could stop him. I never said that I wanted him to drive me!

I grabbed my bag and followed him out of the door. At least I had to admit that this was better than him begging me to stay the night which was what I partly expected him to do.

“You don’t have to drive me. I can get back by myself,” I quickly turned down his request when I finally caught up to him.

“No, I’ll drive you,” EROS replied back stubbornly.

I felt like I was arguing with an image of myself because he was probably as stubborn as I was…if not more so…

“No, there’s no need for you to do that and I don’t want you to drive me back,” I said firmly.

During that time, we already made it to the elevator and EROS had already pressed the button. He turned to me, and I was scared of the determination in his eyes.

“It’s late. I’ll drive you,” he said just as the door to the elevator slid open.

Before I could utter a word, EROS grabbed my upper arm and dragged me into the elevator with him. I heaved a long sigh. It wouldn’t kill me if he drove me back. EROS knew where I lived anyways so I don’t know why I was being so stubborn about all this. What bothered me was that EROS seemed on edge and that was probably since he had that conversation with the CEO who was also his father.

Mind blown…

Their character seemed to be so different. It was hard for me to believe that they were related let alone father and son. There was another thing that bothered me…

“We’re here. Get in,” EROS said curtly as he opened the passenger door of the car for me.

Superstars sure have fancy cars. Period.

“Did you think that I’m any poorer than your other clients?” EROS teased me with a wicked grin.

Well, I wasn’t sure how much a superstar of this caliber made but the fact that he was also the heir of GH Entertainment meant that he was super wealthy alright. I could do the math if I really wanted to figure out his net worth but…those days of my life are gone…

“You’re the heir of GH Entertainment and also EROS so of course, you’re not poor. Good for you…” I said softly before I offered him a tight smile and got into the car.

That had absolutely nothing to do with. As long as I got paid the rate agreed upon on my contract, I didn’t care how rich or poor he or anyone else was.

The drive with EROS was strangely silent. It wasn’t like EROS was a very talkative person to start with but the atmosphere in the car felt awkward. It felt like we both had something to say but we were both avoiding it.

“Do you think it’s weird for someone like me to be a superstar?” EROS suddenly spoke up when the car stopped at a red light.

“As in for the son of the company’s owner to be the key talent of the company? Well, it’s not that strange, I guess. Makes it more like a family business…” I replied with my honest thoughts.

Was this what had been bothering him? Surprisingly, it was also what I was wondering about. After all, I heard it loud and clear when the CEO basically told EROS to quit being a superstar. It just sounded crazy, why would the CEO want one of his biggest money makers to quit?

“I see. You heard him when he told me to quit being EROS, didn’t you?” EROS asked his eyes glued straight ahead.

“Yes…I did. I am a little curious as to why he would say that…” I replied softly.

EROS was silent for a moment, and I got the feeling that he didn’t want to reply to that question. Perhaps, I was prying too much into his private life.

“He doesn’t like the reason why I became a superstar. It’s all a big inconvenience for him,” EROS confessed so softly that I almost didn’t hear him at first.

“Oh, take a turn here and we should be at my place soon,” I said to change the topic.

Soon we arrived and EROS parked his eye-catching sportscar in front of my building. It was late at night, and no one was walking around this area anymore which wasn’t surprising considering that it was a weekday.

“Thank you for driving me…” I thanked him as I started getting out of the car.

“Elena…” EROS called my name softly.
