Chapter 379

"Got a date?"

Robert couldn’t help his wild guess upon what she said.

“Nah,” Mary blinked, “I haven't had a break in a long time and I’d like to go out for a while.”

“Alone?”

“Yeah,” Mary looked at the time glumly. Who would like to shop with her now?

"I'll go with you."

Mary stared at him and was stunned as if she didn’t believe. In no time she began to shake her head nervously, "It’s OK, I don't want to be surrounded by your fans."

As soon as he got up, Robert turned around, looked at her and frowned, “Are you avoiding me? It's painful to go shopping with me, isn't it? Or because I’m not as good as Anna, so all you want is getting rid of me as soon as possible?”

“...Don’t compare yourself with Miss Anna.”

“Why not? You resent me this much?” Robert stepped forward.

Mary didn’t expect such a conversation. The only thing that hunted her was how this 30-year-old man lacked the prudence he should have!

Such a childish question for him...

“I just want to buy some groceries and watch a movie on the way, and it's inconvenient if you come along.”

“There's nothing inconvenient. I can offer a hand of mine to carry your things. Besides, I will change my appearance. Nobody will recognize me.”

Ten minutes later, Robert appeared again in front of Mary. He had worn a fake moustache, wig and frame glasses, "That will do."

Mary was worried nevertheless. “What if the dog packs recognize you and write fake news about you?”

Robert turned speechless.

“Then just go by yourself,” he removed his wig in black mood.

Mary almost fled after that. She couldn't figure out the reason of Robert’s dramatic mood swing.

Several minutes later, Jack received a phone call in much depressed tone.

"Where's Anna?"

Jack raised his eyebrows. It seemed that things didn’t go well. So he passed his cell phone to Anna and spelled Robert’s name silently with his mouth.

Anna nodded and took the phone.

"Is your assistant a normal woman? Why is she so stupid?"

Anna was amused by his tone. It seemed that Mary not only completely failed in mind reading Robert but also kept avoiding him...

“Mary is a smart girl. She just doesn’t care about relationships. If you really want to be her friend, you might have to show your weak side to arouse her sympathy.”

“Considering your position and your cold manner, she is bound to be scared and timid.”

“After all, it’s hard for her to figure out what you want...so don’t rush. Take it slow. Show her your sincerity.”

“He has no idea of taking it slow,” Jack laughed by her side. “He has been used to messing around, and maybe lightning marriage is the best for him.

You know, to meet someone today and marry her tomorrow. He hates to keep to the beaten track.”

Robert heard him quite plainly and hanged up immediately.

Jack was right about him. He was never sluggish. He had the urge to confess his love almost every time when he was with Mary. In fact, he would have done so if he was not afraid their “friendship” would be ruined.

He was so indecisive with her around. And why is that...

Sympathy?

Robert leaned against the couch and closed his eyes slowly. How exactly could he take it slow?

You would think it’s hard for a fan to chase his idol. But things were upside down for him. Wouldn’t it be degrading for a movie king to chase a little assistant?

......

After high-geared preparation, the shooting of Cornfield was put on the agenda.

Anna had canceled all other schedules to read the script and learn from the body-shaping trainer. Meanwhile, the schedule of Memories was fixed. It meant a lot to Anna, for it was the first movie she starred in and the maiden work of Jack as a scriptwriter.

“The movie is very like to be released in July during summer vocation. You should attend the promotions then.”

“No problem!” Anna nodded with a smile, "By the way, I heard that Dahlia has received Regan’s application form. He wants to be a trainee this year?”

“Yes. And I heard the results of the initial trial turn are good. He has got a stage name now. I suppose he is as tenacious as his sister and has determined to succeed on his own.”

“Then you should be strict with him, and don’t secure advantage for him...”

“You know that I’m always serious at work. I’m strict with you, not to mention him.” Jack held Anna in his arms. “I understand that you are worried that showbiz hardships would be too much for him to endure, and you’re afraid he might become conceited if he gets a sudden huge success. But both I and Rick have listened to his audition. He is promising and his voice is attractive. You don’t have to worry about him.”

“I see... and I will work hard too, so that Cornfield could have a good performance in box office!”

“In fact, I’m more concerned about you. I want you to take care of yourself. It has a special theme and involves a lot of action scenes. You must be careful.”

Jack leaned closer to Anna and kissed her on her lips.

“Robert took Mary away, and Lucy is newly married and should get ready for pregnancy. I’m considering your assistant candidate.”

“It’s up to you.” She trusted Jack’s decisions. Besides, she had no special requirements for an assistant.

She wouldn't even need an assistant if it wasn't for the fact that she needed someone to take care of her life so she could better devote herself to work.

“I want to be with you every minute every day. I really do...”

“You know the director and the leading actor. Rest assured. I'll keep in touch with you, agent Jack.”

Jack lowered his head and held Mary even closer to him.

Accidental love Chapter 378 The Meaning of Family “I just can't help worrying about you. Your safety is my biggest concern. It’s not easy for me when you are not around.” Jack murmured, “I will come to see you once I have the time.”

There's nothing Anna could do with him. “Take good care of my mom for me, and Regan, too... ”

“I will. I’m your husband. I will take care of all these things before you ask.”

Anna hadn’t appeared in public recently. Her fans grew curious about her dynamics and left lots of massages on her personal homepage.

“Anna is nowhere to see for a while. Guess you guys are planning to have a child, right?”
