Fletcher turned his head and looked at Jordyn before answering in a serious tone (with no trace of his usual playfulness), “No one will want someone that continually doubts themselves.”
Fletcher always provided strong answers and this time was no different.
He used a roundabout way to point out that Jordyn’s current state wasn’t great. At the same time, he also avoided answering Jordyn’s difficult question by playing Tai Chi around it. It wasn’t a matter of whether he wanted someone like her. Instead, in her current state, no man would want someone that doubted themselves like that.
Jordyn almost forgot Fletcher’s identity at Kaleidoscope was both the Artists Director and PR Director. His responses had always been unquestionable, making it impossible for others to argue against him.
So, she let out a laugh before sitting quietly for the rest of the car ride.
She didn’t like the feeling of uncertainty and didn’t like to hide things. Most importantly, she was scared. She had been scared for a long time.
Perhaps, he felt the car had been quiet for too long, so Fletcher cleared his throat before saying, “You’re home…”
“In that case, thank you. No need to walk me to the door…” As soon as she finished talking, Jordyn got ready to leave the car. However, Fletcher suddenly did something that surprised even himself. He leaned over and stopped Jordyn by the hand before explaining in a serious tone, “I helped Manni up, but…I never thought of her as a woman.”
Jordyn was stunned for a moment; she was surprised that Fletcher had actually tried to explain things to her. So, she was also not in her right mind as she asked, “Then, who do you think of as a woman?”
Fletcher let go of Jordyn and replied, “My daughter…”
Jordyn glared at Fletcher for a second before opening the door and stepping out of his car.
Fletcher gave a slight laugh as he waved goodbye to Jordyn before driving away from the apartment.
As for Jordyn, although her anger hadn’t been completely subdued, at least Fletcher explained himself to her.
However, it was quite tiresome to tread lightly around each other…
Meanwhile, she couldn’t help thinking about the classmate that introduced her to Brott. Did she do it on purpose, or not?
If it was on purpose, then she was quite a conniving person.
In the end, Jordyn decided not to tell Emma about how the ‘potential date’ had turned into an interception by Fletcher. She wanted to keep it to herself…
…
The next morning at Hyatt Regency.
Whenever Emma had no jobs scheduled, she would personally pick out clothes for Eric.
So, at this moment, Eric was standing practically naked in front of the wardrobe mirror as Emma brought him one outfit after another.
Eric ended up wasting half an hour on this. But, seeing Emma’s exp**ssion of enjoyment, he decided to dotingly comply.
“I have something to do tonight, afterward I will head directly to the banquet from there. Luke will come pick you up so we can meet at the entrance and head in together.”
Emma was in the middle of helping Eric do up his b**tons. Seeing Eric’s perfect body, she couldn’t help but be reminded of his scrawny opponent. Although she didn’t want others to see her husband’s body, if one single glance could guarantee instant victory, it wouldn’t be much of a loss, right?
Eric lowered his head and looked at the exp**ssion on Emma’s face. Actually, Emma didn’t need to say anything for him to already know what she was thinking…
He was well experienced at witnessing his lover being insulted. Every time it happened, he’d feel like spewing up blood from all the vented up anger. It was because of this understanding that he didn’t want Emma to suffer because of him.
“All good?”
Emma nodded her head as she stood on her tiptoes and placed a habitual bite on Eric’s shoulder. This was a secret gesture bet**en the couple. Regardless of whether Emma was happy or sad, she would bite him like this.
At the same time, regardless of whether Eric was hurt inside or not, it would not show on his face. He simply pulled Emma into his embrace and placed a k**s on her forehead before putting on his jacket and leaving their home in a satisfied manner.
Emma stood by the window and watched as Eric’s car pulled away. She placed her hand upon her racing heart. She didn’t understand why, even after so long, as long as she was with Eric, her heart rate would increase like they were still newlyweds.
As she turned around, Emma spotted the entertainment newspaper sitting on top of the table. As she thought about the shamelessly boastful Eustace, she felt slightly unhappy.
Tonight, he was Eric’s opponent. As for Emma, her competition tonight were the model twins.
However, to Emma, she didn’t expect much from them.
The meeting this time was aimed at calling a truce bet**en the two parties, so it was expected that the media would be present. But, according to the Eric that Emma knew, he would definitely get revenge before calling a truce.
So, she suddenly felt a sense of anticipation for tonight’s meeting. But, as the thought of Eric’s second uncle came to her mind, she felt a little anxious.
That afternoon, Emma was getting ready at home when Lisa brought over some news to Hyatt Regency, “Emma, I heard people from the gay social circles have been making phone calls to Kaleidoscope. This is all because of that jerk from Star King!”
“Since you know he is a jerk, then all we have to do is give him a slap in the face. There’s no need to feel bothered by him.” After speaking, Emma tried on a simple Qipao.
As soon as Lisa saw her, she froze in awe, “Emma, I don’t see you wear Qipaos often…it’s really beautiful on you.”
Emma was still a little anxious as she adjusted the Qipao on her body, “Do I look too proper?”
“Since you will be meeting an elder, your outfit is just right…” Lisa nodded in approval. “I must say, my brain will always lose to yours. You always make the right choices. The older generation has always been strong on patriotism. With the sight of you, you don’t know how nostalgic you will make them feel.”
“Would it be too deliberate?”
“You weren’t even this nervous when you appeared on the runway of a top brand,” Lisa glanced at her and comforted, “You honestly look perfect.”
This time, even Eric didn’t expect Emma to wear a Qipao. Even though he knew his wife was always switched on.
…
7pm. The sky was dark while snow drifted from the skies.
Inside the high-class venue, the Quincey family and Eric’s second uncle had already arrived on time. As for Eric, he was running about 10 minutes late.
Second Master Roberts quickly explained, “Because of the snow outside, I heard there is quite a bit of traffic. That’s why he is late.”
Old Quincey smiled casually, “That’s a common issue. I don’t mind waiting for a little.”
On this occasion, Eustace did not bring his flirtatious model twins, he simply stood around looking impatient. He knew deep down that Eric was deliberately late and wanted to make them wait.
Inside the banquet hall, apart from the two families, there was also a whole heap of reporters standing at the entrance. This entire banquet was just for show and Eustace felt he had merely spoken the ‘truth’; Eric was 32-years-old and had never been with a woman, who knew whether he was really interested in men?
Quarter past seven, Emma wr*pped herself in a black coat and arrived at the high-class venue with Luke.
Eric had also just arrived. As soon as he saw his beloved wife, he grabbed her hand and hooked it on his arm, “Don’t be nervous. In a moment, I’ll do all I can to please you.”
