Addiction to Temptation: His Mischievous Sweetheart Captivates Him-Chapter 156: Natalie Vaughn: Have Some Shame!

Chapter 156: Chapter 156: Natalie Vaughn: Have Some Shame!

Natalie Vaughn’s face instantly turned redder than the makeup artist’s. No wonder Zane Thorne seemed so interested in the triviality of makeup — he was waiting for her to realize this.

How could she forget? They were so wild the previous night, with Zane being like a fierce wolf, leaving marks all over her, and her skin was so delicate that it usually took a day or two for normal kiss marks to fade. That night, Zane had been forceful, and it might take three or four days to disappear.

Even when visiting the villa, she had worn a high-necked sweater just to cover the marks on her neck, but she couldn’t very well sleep in a sweater.

She had been carried here by Zane before fully waking up, so naturally, she hadn’t had time to change clothes.

In comfortable pajamas, her neck was fully exposed.

At this moment, Natalie wanted to curse.

But she could only feign calmness under Zane’s smiling gaze and talk to the makeup artist.

"Could you please help cover this up?"

The makeup artist, who was also a young lady, had her heart race at the sight, her mind imagining all sorts of indescribable scenarios.

This.....

Her neck was covered with kiss marks, some light, some heavy, suggesting a very intense situation.

With this thought, the makeup artist quickly glanced at Zane and carefully studied Natalie. A doubt arose in her heart: Natalie seemed so thin and delicate — could she withstand her husband’s advances?

After all, Zane, with his stature, must be quite strong in the bedroom.

Seeing the makeup artist’s eyes darting around, and her face and even her ears reddening, Natalie knew the people in the room must be imagining things about her and Zane. Being a woman herself, Natalie naturally understood the imagination potential of women, especially when it came to gossip — an imagination that even an ordinary screenwriter couldn’t rival.

So Natalie gave Zane another fierce glare, mentally cursing the dog of a man countless times.

Fortunately, Natalie’s costume only required her neck and collarbone to be exposed, so the concealing was relatively simple. However, when Natalie finished changing, the makeup artist looked a bit stiff.

Why are there also marks on her arms?

"Ahem, Nina, let me cover that again for you."

Most of Natalie’s scenes today involved fighting, so even though she wore a snug undershirt, precautions had to be taken.

When the makeup artist lifted Natalie’s sleeve and saw more clearly, her ears turned crimson.

This... this... kiss marks are one thing, but why are there bite marks too? Is it that intense these days?

Even Natalie couldn’t bear to look directly, feeling rare embarrassment.

Once everyone else had left, leaving the two alone, Natalie rushed in front of Zane and lifted her leg. Zane didn’t dodge and took the kick directly.

However, Natalie’s body hadn’t fully recovered, and her strength wasn’t big, so the kick wasn’t much for Zane, but.....

The man raised an eyebrow and chuckled lightly.

"Feeling better?"

Seeing his expression, Natalie had another suspicion.

"Did you do it on purpose?"

Zane’s lashes drooped slightly, and there was a twinkle of laughter in his eyes.

Natalie kicked him again.

This time, she hit his bone, causing mutual pain. Zane’s brows moved slightly, but seeing Natalie wince in pain, he amusedly and exasperatedly pulled her into his arms.

"You vent your anger on me only to hurt yourself, Natalie, when will you ever learn?"

Upon hearing this, Natalie stood on tiptoe and bit his chin.

"Women love gossip, you know half the crew probably knows by now."

Zane touched where Natalie had bitten him, raising an eyebrow, unconcerned, his tone leisurely.

"So what if they do?"

Pausing his tone, he gently tapped Natalie’s forehead.

"You’re married. It’s normal."

Natalie:...

Normal? But should it be so visible? Not just on the neck, but on the arms too. Now everyone knows how intense their bedroom activities are.

"Don’t act like it’s normal. How about you go to your company with kiss marks all over your neck?"

Hearing this, Zane pondered for a moment.

"Not impossible."

Saying that, he bent down with a smile, offering his neck to Natalie.

Natalie:...

"Have some shame!"

Who would have known that the day after turning twenty-four, her husband would almost kill her with his antics? Natalie didn’t want to speak to Zane anymore, giving him a fierce look before leaving the makeup room.

Zane watched as the young woman in a dark red dress left, smiling faintly.

After laughing enough, he followed her out.

Just as he went out, he bumped into Julian Sutton coming out of another makeup room.

The smile on Zane’s lips faded, his eyes narrowing slightly with an indescribable emotion, as he looked Julian over from head to toe.

Oh, this was the male actor Natalie had joked around with. Tsk, not much to look at. What’s up with Natalie? Is this the type of man she finds appealing?

Julian paused his steps, puzzled by the hostile look Natalie’s husband was giving him. Though unsure why, he nodded slightly and quickly left.

Coincidentally, today was a scene where Natalie and Julian had a lot of interaction, alongside Quinn Langley.

Natalie, listening to Director Gable’s instructions outside, felt her expression stiffen when she saw Julian’s clothes.

Though black, the gilding and patterns were of the same type as hers.

Great, with Zane’s possessiveness, he’s definitely going to be jealous.

Sure enough, when Zane came out and saw Natalie standing with Julian, the arc of his lips dropped, his gaze turning cold.

He looked at Zoe Chandler, who stiffened under his gaze.

Zoe stepped forward, her mind racing and ultimately followed Genevieve Joyce’s cue to call out.

"President Thorne."

"Does she have a romantic plotline?"

Zoe immediately understood. Plenty of actors in the industry were married, but usually, when one side was filming, the other would either frequently visit the set or not show up at all. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶

Those who visited were there to keep an eye on their partner and prevent any genuine feelings with co-stars. Those who didn’t couldn’t tolerate their partner being intimate with another.

With what she gathered about Zane, he should belong to the latter, but not completely. She suspected that if Zane had known about Natalie’s romantic scenes sooner, he would have had President Langdon intervene to either have them rewritten or not performed at all.

Unfortunately, Natalie’s scenes were already halfway done, and if Zane were to intervene now, it would anger Natalie. From her observation, given Zane’s love for Natalie, even the illustrious-looking President Thorne would have to bottle it up and be secretly jealous.

"Yes, but the romantic scenes with Actor Sutton are few."

The man snorted coldly.

Zoe stood aside, afraid to say more. If she guessed correctly, the couple must have had a minor spat in the makeup room earlier.

She looked at the two standing in the courtyard. With their similar outfits, they actually looked quite like a pair when standing together. If she could see it, of course, Zane could as well.

Feeling the increasingly chilly aura from the man beside her, Zoe silently prayed for Natalie to fend for herself.
