Sorry, I am late
Jeremy checked his watch and hurriedly went to the entrance. He was late!
Ryn must be mad at him.
If he was not held up by Caroline whose brother was his client, he would not even bother to stop and talk with her. And even took a picture with her. He was not here as Jeremy, the singer. He was here as Ryn'd hubby and driver!
He scowled at the thought of Caroline who kept yapping about her happiness and excitement seeing him sitting on the second row, watching the show. She even ignored his request of not taking video of him but like a spoiled little princess, she just did that. He had to swallow his impatient and forced a small smile.
However, he was firm when Caroline invited him to her birthday party tomorrow night. He did not want to court trouble, especially when he saw her eyes narrowing full of weird plan. He was not going to fall into any trap!
If Mika dared to behave like that, he would cut her salary in half!
And he would even auction off all her favourite clothes and makeup!
He finally found her leaning toward the wall with her arms crossing against her chest and her eyes closed shut.
He quickened his walk, panting a bit.
"I'm sorry, love. I was caught up with business just now."
"Hmm..." she opened her eyes and looked at him. She did not say anything more, just simply cocking an eyebrow.
"Here, let me bring your bag." He took her bag off her and with one hand holding her hand, walked toward the car waiting.
Luckily his driver was already waiting for them. Hmm... Maybe he should increase the driver's salary.
They did not even notice a cameraman was busy taking their pictures discreetly. The man grinned widely when the car went away. He would get a lot of money from these pictures. God really was on his side tonight.
He came to the show to snap pictures of Caroline with her latest squeeze but he saw Jeremy walking hurriedly toward someone as if he was worried. He knew even if Jeremy's little sister came, he would not look this worried. It must be a woman!
He was right. He saw Jeremy approaching Catherine whom he declared just a friend and having a "secret" program. But it turned out they were going out together!
Jeremy dared fooling them!
His nose flared in ignition. How dared Jeremy treated them as fools. Now, he had the evidence that these two were dating. What could Jeremy say more? Would he deny and claim they were just friends?
Jeremy looked at Ryn worriedly. She hadn't spoken at all since they got into the car and now, just half of the way. She was not sleeping. He checked!
He was screwed. They were just getting back. She was just starting to open up her heart to him. She was slowly accepting him. And stupid him actually made a stupid mistake!
What should he do now?
He looked at his phone. Then, an idea popped into his mind.
"Love, what do you think if we take two more days here? I haven't had the chance to bring you visitting famous place here. Don't you want to visit London Tower or the Buckingham Palace?"
She finally looked at him, at his nervous face. Then, she turned around and looked out of the window.
"I'm too tired to think."
"Then, why don't you sleep? Here, lie down," he patted his thigh, signaling her to lay her head on his laps. He even took out a small royal blue fleece blanket to drap on her body, to protect her from the coldness of the air conditional.
She did just that. She let him stroke her head and arm, lulling her to sleep. She was exhausted but too angry to sleep just now.
He smiled seeing her already deep in her sleep. It took her only seconds to fall asleep, just like usual. The moment she let her security down and laid her head on his laps, he knew he was forgiven, even just a little.
Little by little, slowly and slowly, she would accept him back into her heart.
He had no doubt of it.
The car was driven slowly to ensure Ryn's sleep was not disturbed. The driver was uncomfortable at the snail pace but he held on. This was for the future of their Young Master. Theirs as well.
He must do well in this important task!
They finally arrived in front of the mansion. The driver blew out a relieved sigh before quickly rushed out to open the door for Young Master.
Jeremy murmured his thanks as he scooped Ryn into his arms and walked into the mansion. The entrance was smooth with the butler already opened the door wide for them.
Jeremy carried Ryn into her room. He had never tried to sleep with her, giving her all the space she needed.
However, instead of letting her sleeping peacefully on the gigantic bed, Jeremy shook her gently. "Love, wake up. We've arrived."
Ryn mumbled something under her sleep and turned around. Well, tried to turn around. Her movement was blocked by a certain someone. She frowned. Her eyes were still shut but she kept trying to move. She knew, unconsciously, this was a real sleeping session, not just a take five or a nap of ten to fifteen minutes. This sleeping session was to refuel her body, to rest her body and mind. Hence, she refused to open her eyes and face the world. She needed this rest!
He smiled seeing her action. She looked so beautiful even when she was deep in her sleep and now, with the frowning and mumbling, she changed into an adorable woman. It made him love her more!
"Love, wake up. You need to wash off the makeup before you can sleep. Come on, just for few minutes to clean your face," he coaxed gently, rubbing her arm gently in order to wake her up.
"Hmm... " She could not open her eyes. Her mind was mushy and her body felt so heavy. So, she refused to wake up. She refused to move!
He was still smiling. Why was she so adorable even when she was being stubborn? Without waiting anymore, he scooped her up to the vanity table. But, when he reached there, he was in a dilemma. How was he going to make her take off her make up when she was still sleeping, rather deeply now?
