Chapter 400 - 396 This Woman, Really Stupid (Part 1)
Every day when Sophie goes to the film set, Asher always sends a driver to take her, and even sends a few maids to be at her service. Sophie thinks he’s making a big fuss; she’s only two months and seven days pregnant. Is it really that precious?
"Asher, I’ll drive myself today, no need for the driver or maids to follow."
"Alright."
Sophie didn’t expect he would agree so quickly. She reached out to take the bag from the maid’s hand and the keys from the driver’s hand, then walked out.
She barely took two steps when a large hand suddenly grasped her wrist, taking her bag and keys.
"Asher, what are you doing? If we keep dawdling, I’ll be late again."
"Yes, today the driver and maids won’t follow you, I’m following you. I am your driver and maid." He curved his lips, his big hand holding onto her waist.
Sophie didn’t move.
"Let’s go, to the set, didn’t you say you’re going to be late?"
"You, you better not go, I’m afraid if people see us, they’ll gossip again."
When filming City of Desire, he was at least an investor, but now? What reason does he have to enter and exit the set with her?
"If I’m not in the sight of your crew, wouldn’t that work?"
"What do you mean?"
"I’ll wait for you in the car, and after you’re done filming, we’ll go home together."
"It might take all day, and I even have night shoots today. Making you wait for so long, I feel bad."
"I’m willing."
"..."
Sophie had nothing to say, so she let him do as he pleased.
When she arrived at the filming site, she glanced at the time, thankfully she was still on time.
The actor who plays opposite Sophie is a new actor named Arlo. Actually, the original lead actor was not him, but the former lead Wyatt Sterling wasn’t satisfied, so he was replaced. What Sophie did not expect was that Arlo was also a student of Eastern Film Academy, just one year younger.
When Arlo saw Sophie, he greeted her respectfully.
"Sophie, please take care of me, I’m Arlo."
"Hello."
Arlo is a lively boy, he chatted with Sophie on many topics, Sophie always replied politely with questions answered, so they chatted happily.
Sophie’s phone buzzed suddenly, she opened it and looked...
Text from Asher.
[Too much chatting.]
Sophie frowned; the text from Asher meant she was chatting too much with Arlo? She instinctively searched around and surprisingly found Asher’s car really parked not far away.
How did he manage to drive inside?
Asher slowly lowered the car window, revealing a harmless smile to her.
Annoying, this man must be here to monitor her today; even chatting is forbidden?
[Asher, you’re restricting my freedom!]
[Which word did you see that in?] He quickly replied.
[Every word indicates that, that’s exactly what you mean.]
[Oh? Maybe it’s your eyes having a problem.]
[You have the problem with your eyes!]
...
The two kept going back and forth, one message after another, Sophie engrossed in arguing with Asher, completely forgetting about Arlo standing next to her.
Asher’s lips curved into a smug smile, ha, this woman is so silly.
Seeing her chatting with Arlo passionately, he was unwilling. Why is he her man, yet he can only be bored in the car? So he sent messages to get her attention, making his presence felt, and unexpectedly, she fell for it.
Look, now isn’t she concentrating fully on texting with him, leaving that man, who looks like a smooth operator, standing aside?
