COLD RAIN

CHAPTER 44

After not resting in a quiet and comfortable environment for a long time, Pon slept deeply this night.

Adding on the nap on the road, he actually slept as much as thirteen hours in the day.

He woke up with a headache and didn’t feel like he had slept enough.

But he couldn’t sleep anymore, he had to go out before Sailub woke up.

The agreement stated that he had to stay at home for twelve hours a day. Pon planned to spend all his other time elsewhere and try not to meet Sailub.

He slept in the guest room upstairs. After getting up, he didn’t use the bathroom upstairs.

He took out the prepared toiletries from his bag and went downstairs.

Hearing the movement in the kitchen, Pon thought he had heard it wrong. He walked downstairs and saw a tall figure moving in the door of the semi-open kitchen, and he couldn’t help but feel surprised.

The stove and the vent were both working, and Sailub, surrounded by noise, did not notice anyone going downstairs.

He held a spatula in his hand and there was something churning in the pot.

Pon didn’t plan to say hello to him, walked into the bathroom, closed the door and locked it.

In just five minutes of washing, Pon summed up the reason why Sailub got up early to cook.

There was a lot of uproar about the recent breach of contract, even passers-by talked about it.

Many media figures followed the trend, harping Sailub’s so-called “unprofessionality” and focusing on the actors whose income was much greater than the contribution.

It would be okay with someone else, but Sailub’s bad temper was well-known both inside and outside the entertainment circle.

For a while, the spearheads of public opinion pointed at him. Various anonymous sources spread the news on the Internet regardless of it being true or false.

Being a diva, insulting the director, neglecting work, going lazy after winning an award, demanding special treatment in the crew…

All kinds of things swarmed around him. Pon met news of this kind several times just by accidentally swiping down but the people who liked the buzz would look at it and scold.

No one cared if it was true or not and whether there was conclusive evidence.

Pon couldn’t help but think of the plagiarism incident that happened to him.

The false thing was instigated by someone with malicious intent to arouse the indignant insults of many uninformed people.

At that time, he felt that the sky was collapsing and he couldn’t eat or sleep.

Sailub’s situation was more serious and the range of distribution was wider.

If it were him, he would likely seclude himself and retire from the circle.

That was why Sailub was so abnormal these days. In addition, he withdrew from that series and had no work, so he was free to cook at home.

It seemed strange, but when you thought about it carefully, it was natural to distract yourself with other things.

When he went out, Sailub was answering the phone, and Pon had no intention of eavesdropping.

However, Sailub had no spare hand to hold the phone and turned on the speaker, so he was forced to listen.

“Go back? Why? Did you bring the man surnamed Tanawat to the house again?”

“Dream on! Your notoriety is all over the place. Is being an actor not enough? You’ve made so much mess, disgracing my old face! The Tanawat family is not deaf or blind, do you think they will still accept a scandal-ridden person like you?
