Chapter 253 Unexpectedly Nervous
Chapter 253 Unexpectedly Nervous
Before attending the banquet, Jack still needed to attend a meeting in the company. Therefore, Anna prepared today’s suit for him especially before he left.
The wine-red background color plus the dominative patterns, and the tailored cut highlighted the good shape of Jack. Along with the striated tie, he looked more like a profound businessman.
Anna looked at her work with satisfaction. Recently, she had been very keen on matching clothes for Jack. Even though they couldn’t be together all the time, she still hoped to express her care for him in this way.
Jack was already late for the originally scheduled time, but he enjoyed his time with Anna.
“Perfect…” Anna looked at the lofty man in front of her, “Jack, you look handsome!”
“As long as you’re happy.” Jack knew that Anna was quite annoyed by the rumors and comments on the internet. He turned around to hug her in his arms, kissing her forehead gently, “Things will soon be resolved.”
He didn’t want those inessential people to affect his wife’s emotions.
Since being the CEO of Dahlia Entertainment, he had gone through too many such rumors and comments, but he didn’t want to see Anna getting angry for him.
Anna tiptoed and kissed on his lips vigorously, “Come back earlier, I will wait for you at home.”
Jack nodded and stayed with her for a while. Then, he put on his coat and walked out.
Anna watched his car drive all the way out of her sight. She touched her throbbing heart and flushed. No matter how long they had been married, as soon as he got close to Jack, she would be attracted by some kind of magic that made her heart beat faster.
Their marriage was like passionately in love forever.
However, as she thought of meeting that William Ling and the Ling family tonight, she felt very unhappy!
She could definitely not lose out to a base person that slandered her husband with rumors. That William knew she would be going tonight, so he would definitely ask that half-blooded actress, who just signed a contract with Dragon Entertainment, to attend as well.
As a result, what she needed to do was to defeat that woman.
This wasn’t even a challenge for Anna. Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.
Since it was the Ling family that invited them in the first place and wanted to reconcile, then the Jiang family must have arranged something else. Maybe they would invite some reporters that they were familiar with. How could Anna just let them muddle through so easily!
What’s more, Anna was a bit worried, because Jack’s uncle would also be there…
She wanted to leave a good impression on Jack’s family, the Jiang family. Last time, after seeing the new product from last season with Lucy, she was very unsatisfied. In the end, she went to a famous Chinese cheongsam shop to ask the best master to make a cheongsam.
Luckily, Anna’s body was much well-proportioned than others, so the measure was easy to handle.
As soon as Lucy received the call from the cheongsam shop, she went to fetch it. After that, she sent it to Anna immediately, “Try it on. If there’s anything inappropriate, we still have some time to modulate.”
Anna put on that pale pinkish purple Chinese cheongsam. Her aura was emphasized at once. Lucy looked at the demure person in the mirror excitedly, and exclaimed, “You really have a good taste. Wear this to see the patriarch, you will definitely be rewarded with bonus points!”
“I only felt that this suit was more in accord with the taste of the patriarch, compared to those gorgeous dresses.” Anna looked at the mirror, “It looks good indeed, no need to change.”
Lucy remarked, “If I have your body shape…”
She was packing up the jewelries selected by Anna while she said, “By the way, I heard that someone kept sending postcards with cursed words to Dahlia entertainment.”
“They were all about the rumors that slander the boss…”
“They won’t be happy for too long.” Anna looked into the mirror coldly.
But the next second, she became nervous again, “I always…”
“You’re already an experienced person. How come you are so worried this time? Relax, if I were a member of the boss’ family, I will definitely appreciate you as Jack’s wife.”
Judging from any aspect, Anna was impeccable.
…
Eight’o clock at night.
It snowed for the first time in this winter.
Inside the appointed hotel, the family members of William and Jack’s uncle had both arrived, but Jack’s seat remained unoccupied. His car wasn’t even parked outside at the parking lot.
William snorted impolitely, he had already been tired of waiting. He felt bored with sitting alongside the patriarch alone without that half-blooded actress. What’s worse, he clearly knew that Jack was late intentionally.
Many reporters that were waiting for photos or videos had all gathered outside. They were here because of the words William said yesterday during the interview.
A mature man with status and power, yet there wasn’t a woman next to him. Couldn’t it explain the problem?
After twenty minutes from the scheduled time, the car was finally parked at the front door. Jack got off the car with Anna. He wrapped his coat on Anna’s shoulders, “It’s just a meeting, no need to be nervous. I am always here for you.”
“Here they come! They must be late due to the terrible weather.” William’s father Richard Ling said with laughter as he looked at the front door.
Jack’s uncle Freddie Jiang raised his head and noticed the woman beside Jack instantly. The woman wore an elegant cheongsam, revealing a coldly noble beauty, but her character should be very tender.
Sure enough that this woman was selected by the descendant of the Jiang family, really outstanding.
The only question was, whether the woman from the entertainment business was qualified to be married into the Jiang’s family.
“A traffic jam? Take a seat.” Freddie Jiang said to Jack.
Traffic jam was a very appropriate excuse that wouldn’t embarrass the Ling family.
Nevertheless, after Jack sat down on his seat slowly, he answered calmly, “There was no traffic jam.”
Freddie’s face darkened, and both the father and the son of the Ling family looked unkind.
When Anna noticed the expression of Freddie, she took a look at Jack, catching sight of the hint in his look. She smiled and said immediately, “I am so sorry. In fact, we were late because it took some time
for Jack to pick me up. Sorry for having you all wait for such a long time.”
In this way, Freddie became very happy with Anna’s appropriate performance. His anger was mitigated.
Anna understood the reason why Jack said so was to give her a chance to perform well in front of Freddie.
“It’s alright, it’s alright…” Richard Ling smiled, “This kid photos can always be seen on the latest news.”
It seemed that Richard was praising that Anna was popular, but he actually meant something else. Could a woman possessed by entertainment news help with Jack’s career?
After hearing that, Freddie looked at Anna and his sight landed on Jack, “Do you know about the news?”
“Yes, I do.” Jack answered succinctly.
As the husband and manager of Anna, he knew everything about Anna.
