Chapter 234

Although Eason was a bit eccentric, Susan didn’t think he had any ill intentions and didn’t dwell too much on their interaction.

The film crew of had only a few scenes to shoot in the city, which they wrapped up in three days.

Next, they were scheduled to travel to the famous Snowstock on the other side of the globe for a four–

month enclosed shoot.

Theresa, as the lead actress, had cleared her schedule well in advance for the next four months of continuous shooting.

“Hey Susan.” Theresa said while packing, chatting with Susan over video call. “They say the scenery there is beautiful. Why don’t you come along?”

“Me?” Susan shook her head. “Nah, too lazy to move.”

Theresa blinked. “Speaking of which, isn’t your husband Ben away on a business trip?”

“Yeah.” Susan sounded somewhat bored. “He’s attending an international conference. Won’t be back for over a week.”

“That conference is in Riowert, right?” Theresa inquired.

Susan nodded.

Theresa smiled slightly, “You know, our filming location is in Snowstock of Riowert, just a two–hour drive from the city where Ben’s conference is. If you come with me, you might see him earlier.”

Susan paused for a moment.

Theresa waved her hand dismissively, “Oh, what am I saying? I know you’re too lazy to move. Just forget! mentioned it.”

After saying that, Theresa turned around and packed her luggage again.

Susan coughed lightly. “Hey, come back here. Who said I’m too lazy to move?”

“Really?” Theresa looked at her, half–smiling.

Susan declared confidently. “Even if I said it, that was just now. Suddenly, I feel like going out, especially to the picturesque Snowstock!”

Theresa couldn’t help but laugh. “I now believe that couples do influence each other. How else did you get so shameless all of a sudden? Must have learned it from your husband, Ben, right?”

&M M d Susan remained unflappable. “Just tell me if you welcome me to join or not.”

72% 06:22 “Of course, I welcome you. How could a small–time actress like me dare not welcome our investor?”

Theresa replied with a smile.

Susan held her head high proudly. “Good to know.”

After a bit of playful banter, Ben called for a video chat, so Susan bld Theresa goodbye.

“Tsk tsk, really, no loyalty once a romantic interest comes into play.”

Theresa shook her head and continued packing.

all was The video call was connected.

“Just finished chatting with Theresa?” Ben looked a bit forlorn.

“Just a casual chat,” Susan said, noticing Ben’s fatigue, “Was the meeting exhausting?”

Ben massaged his temples. “It’s alright, just dealing with some bothersome people can be irritating.”

Susan quickly suggested. ‘Then you should rest.”

Ben was silent for a moment, then said with a hint of grievance, “I haven’t seen you all day. We’ve only talked for a minute and you’re already sending me off. You and Theresa talked for at least half an hour.”

Susan couldn’t help but laugh. “I’m just concerned you’re too tired.”

“If I’m tired, I should be looking at you more. Ben’s voice was deep. “You’re the best cure for my fatigue.”

Susan playfully responded, “I reject cheesy lines.”

“A bit cheesy, but my feelings are genuine,” Ben replied with a hint of regret.

“Alright, you look worn out, go take a shower, Susan suggested with a smile.

Ben’s expression suddenly became mischievous.

“What’s with that look?” Susan asked, puzzled.

Ben stood up and started undressing.

“I just didn’t expect my wife to have such… robust tastes. Since you want to see me shower, I shall oblige.”

Susan watched in astonishment as he quickly took off his suit pants and seemed ready to continue.

Her hand shook and she quickly ended the video call.

After hanging up, she regretted it a bit After all, she hadn’t seen her husband in days. Watching him on video to satisfy her longing seemed like a good idea.

Realizing her thoughts were wandering into sexual territory, Susan covered her face in embarrassment.

It seems Theresa was right after all Susan couldn’t help but think her shameless behavior was increasingly resembling Ben’s.

While she was still pondering this, another video call came through Hesitantly, she answered Hmm.

This time, it wouldn’t be very exciting, would it Upon connecting she found Ben, now dressed in a bathrobe in his hotel room, which brought her a sigh of relief.

“Don’t just strip off your clothes at every opportunity, it’s indecent!” she scolded Ben chuckled softly “But it seemed to me that you were a bit disappointed just now. Are you craving my chaste body? Don’t worry, after my shower, you’ll have the chance to see”

Susan was speechless Flustered, Susan ended the call again.

She felt Theresa might have overestimated her How many hurdles would she have to overcome to match Ben’s shamelessness?

When they reconnected half an hour later, Susan had already gone to bed, and Ben had finished his shower and was wearing a loose nightgown This time, Susan decided to take the initiative:

Upon seeing Ben, she remarked. “Weren’t you going to live stream your shower? Why did you suddenly hang up?”

Ben was speechless Ben laughed softly, “I hung up?”

“What else?” Susan replied assertively “I was waiting to watch you shower, and you just cut the call.

We’re a married couple, Ben Why be so shy?”

Bens se deepeneu. My opivy shower?”

—

Coughing, Susan quickly declined. “No need! That would be a waste of water.”

Ben nodded in agreement. “Indeed, wasting water is not good. How about this, I actually recorded a video. I could send it to you for your enjoyment?”

“You recorded a video?” Susan was astounded. “Are you out of your mind?”

Ben raised an eyebrow playfully. “All for my wife’s pleasure. I’ll send it right over.”

As he pretended to send the video, Susan, usually flustered by such teasing, would have ended the call in embarrassment.

But this time.

Susan, her cheeks flushed, said with a mischievous smile, “Then send it.”

Ben was taken aback.

Susan challenged him, “Hurry up, I’m waiting.”

A look of indulgence flickered across Ben’s eyes.

“My wife is getting shameless,” he said somewhat helplessly.

‘Thanks for your training.” Susan retorted.

Ben’s gaze softened even more.

He fell silent, just gazing at Susan intently.

“What are you looking at?‘ Susan felt a bit awkward under his stare.

Ben spoke softly, “I’m looking at the person I’ve been longing for. Susan… I miss you,*

Susan could handle Ben’s previous mischievous and shameless antics.

But this time, when he gently whispered, “I miss you,” her face turned as red as a tomato.

After a moment, she said softly, with sparkling eyes, “I miss you too.”

Seeing Ben’s smiling face on the video, Susan’s expression softened.

She planned to join Theresa on a trip to Riowert, to surprise Ben.

She hoped he wouldn’t be too shocked when they finally met.
