Demons Beside You (The Demons Beside Me)

"Rasfa, it's me." Steven called Rasfa.

"Steven, you should be on the set at this time, right? Usually when I call you at this time, you scold me bloody. Why did you take the initiative to call me today? It's impossible for me to invest more. ." Rasfa joked.

"It's okay, I just wanted to call you suddenly."

"Steven, what are you doing?" Rasfa felt that Steven's tone was a bit strange.

"nothing."

"Are you feeling unwell?"

"It's okay." Steven said calmly: "If...I mean if something happens to me and the movie hasn't been finished yet, then let that bastard James take over. Although this bastard is not very cool sometimes, , likes to play some little tricks, but after following me for so many years, his level is still very good."

"Steven, is there something wrong with you?"

"I'm fine. I just say whatever comes to my mind. You don't have to think too much."

"I'm really fine, that's it, I'm hanging up the phone."

After saying that, Steven hung up the phone.

Rasfa was anxious. Steven's tone was obviously wrong today.

It felt like he was giving his last words. Rasfa was worried and dialed back.

But Steven's phone was on a call and couldn't be reached.

Rasfa thought for a while and called Chen Zhao again: "Chen, I just received a call from Steven, and I thought his tone was weird. Does he have some incurable disease?"

"What kind of incurable disease? I just checked his body a few days ago. Except that he plays with women too much and has a little kidney deficiency, everything else is normal."

"Then...could he be infected with AIDS because he doesn't play well with women?"

Chen Zhao took a breath: "Are you sure this old bastard isn't kidding you?"

"I called him just now, but he didn't get through."

"Do you know where he is now?"

"If it's normal, he should be on the set at this time." Rasfa suddenly had an idea: "By the way, I'll call James and ask."

"Okay, if anything happens, let me know immediately."

"I see."

After Rasfa hung up Chen Zhao's phone, he immediately dialed James' number.

"James, this is Rasfa, is Steven on set?"

"No, Mr. Steven hasn't arrived yet today."

"Not here yet? Do you know where he went?"

"have no idea."

"So has James behaved unusually recently?"

"Abnormal performance? It seems that the mental state is a bit bad, and a new assistant has been hired." James said.

"If you find Steven, have him call me immediately."

"Okay, I understand, Mr. Rasfa."

…

Outside a luxurious manor, Khalifa Oliver was eating breakfast in the courtyard.

The maid next to Khalifa Oliver asked: "Madam, do you want more coffee?"

"No, bring me today's Los Angeles Daily News and California Times." Khalifa Oliver said.

At this moment, a bodyguard in a black suit walked forward.

"Boss, there is a car parked outside the door. It has been parked all morning."

"Huh? Reporter? Or someone else?"

"No...it seems to be...Mr. Steven."

"What is that old thing going to do?" Khalifa Oliver frowned and said to herself.

She and Steven had been divorced for more than thirty years, and they had almost stopped communicating with each other.

They didn't necessarily meet once a year, and every time they met, she and Steven never had a good conversation.

They treated each other completely as sworn enemies.

Why did Steven come to her door today?

Doesn't he know what kind of humiliation he will receive if he comes to his own territory?

Steven has a knack for making every woman fall in love with him, and then making every woman hate him.

"Bring him in." Khalifa Oliver said.

It didn't take long for Steven to be brought in.

When Khalifa Oliver saw Steven, she found that Steven was particularly haggard today.

It feels like an old man in his twilight years.

The high-spirited and arrogant feeling when I saw him on the screen was completely gone.

There is no overbearing control over everything like a king on the set.

At this moment, he looked like a bad old man.

"Why are you so virtuous?" Khalifa Oliver frowned and looked at Steven with disgust.

Although this old guy is annoying, he always pays attention to his appearance.

Khalifa Oliver has never seen Steven in such a depressed state, and she doesn’t think Steven will be depressed.

Although this old guy has a bad temper, his talent is beyond words.

It was because of his talent that I fell madly in love with him.

So as long as this bastard is still alive, he will not be in despair.

Steven sat next to Khalifa Oliver: "Nothing, I suddenly want to see you."

Khalifa Oliver frowned even more. She almost wondered if this was a fake.

Because Steven never knows how to compromise or give in.

If he had known how to give in, it wouldn't have been more than twenty years before they were still on the same page.

What's going on today? Has the sun come out in the west?

Or has this guy converted to Satan?

"Now, after seeing it, you can leave."

"Well, bye." Steven nodded, stood up and turned to leave.

"Wait..." Khalifa Oliver finally realized that this bastard was not normal.

If he were expelled by him under normal circumstances, he would definitely speak nonsense on the spot.

But today, he actually left so peacefully.

"Are you sick?" Khalifa Oliver's heart tightened, and she felt a kind of discomfort that was difficult to explain clearly.

Of course she hates Steven, but she doesn't want Steven to die.

Even if she cursed countless times and told Steven to die.

But she still wanted to see Steven alive and well.

"I'm fine, I'm fine."

"Bronte, get Steven into my car and go to the hospital."

"Don't touch me, bastard, are you looking for death? Believe it or not, I'll have your head stuffed into the toilet!"

As soon as Bronte touches Steven, Steven immediately snaps and reverts to the annoying bastard he used to be.

"Ignore his threats, take him into the car, I want to know what happened to him." Khalifa Oliver said.

In fact, just like Steven's character, Khalifa Oliver is equally stubborn and tough.

This was the reason why they finally parted ways. No one knew how to give in.
