MY GORGEOUS WIFE IS AN EX-CONVICT

Part 18 Continue

Since that night at the country club alexis had been feeling anxious.

After all, Assistant Director Smith's attitude that day had been really odd. He’d gone from praising her to slapping her, from desiring claire to shoving away from her sister.

After a few days of him not coming to the set, his older brother, the Head Director had also been replaced.

As for the reason, no one in the film crew could seem to explain it. However alexis felt that the change in the film’s director had something to do with Smith When she thought about it some more, she became afraid that it had something to do with claire.

Then, a few days later, when she heard Assistant Director smith had been hospitalized and that his right hand seemed to be ruined for life, she was dumbfounded. His right hand… If she remembered correctly, that was the hand that he had used to slap claire.

Alexis was panicking inside. “What the hell is going on?”

After Assistant Director Smith answered the phone that night, his attitude towards claire had completely changed. As for what had happened to Assistant Director smith afterward… Was this all a coincidence? Or could it be that…claire really had someone powerful behind her?

But if claire really had someone watching over her, would she still be bitterly sweeping the road every day?

Alexis couldn’t help but tell her parents about what had happened that night. When her father heard that his youngest daughter had sent his eldest daughter to drink with an old man, he immediately glared at alexis. “How could you ask your sister to do such a thing? At the very least, our family is…”

“It’s just drinking together. What’s the big deal? Besides alexis did this for the family. Only if alexis makes it as a star will our family have a good future. Otherwise, do you want us to rely on your eldest daughter who had been to jail?” her mother interrupted.

Upon hearing this, her father’s expression fell, but he didn’t say anything.

He’d never been warm to claire but alexis acknowledged that she had set her sister up to be sexually assaulted. Her father wasn’t stupid. He knew that too.

If he pressed her, she’d deny it. As she said, it had only been a few drinks. Her father couldn’t prove the rest, and she’d launch into a tearful performance if he pushed the point.

“Dad, could claire really have found someone to help her? Otherwise, why would Assistant Director smith have let go of her that night and even later ended up in the hospital himself alexis asked.

How would he have known anything about this!?

Her mom touched dad’s arm. “You are her father after all. You should try to ask her about it. If she really has a backer now, she should tell the family about it. I’m worried that if she gets involved with some bad people, then our family will be dragged down as well. Again. She was in prison before, and there are all sorts of people in prison. Who knows who she had met in there!”

Alexis covered her mouth as though the very suggestion terrified her. “Oh, father! What if they come after us? Or her criminal friends do more damage to our family name. Father, you were so honored and revered before claire killed that woman and dishonored us all.”
