Chapter 200: Change In Attitude
"She’s a grown woman. She can handle herself. She also has two people with weapons guarding her. Don’t worry," Joe told Rebecca who stared at the back of Talia who walked towards Rachel and her father.
He wasn’t pleased to see that worry apparent in his wife’s eyes. She always cares more for her friend.
Rebecca blinked her eyes and looked at Joe who had his eyes trained on her. Maybe because she missed him, she found him more handsome, even though she could see the tiredness in his face.
"Becky... I..." Joe gulped trying to convince her to comeback. But seeing her not ready to talk, he didn’t want to force her. Everything in him wanted to just grab her and lock her in his house, but he can’t be overbearing with her.
"Last night, I met with Samuel Russell," Joe changed the topic and scrolled through his phone. With a smile he showed her the phone, sitting across her at the table.
Rebecca’s eyes widened with surprise seeing that video. Her eyes darted to Joe who was looking at her with a proud smile. She really couldn’t believe that her proud husband who thinks that asking for an autograph from a celebrity is akin to begging, actually got a video message from her favourite celebrity.
Did he really get this video for me?
{Hello, Ms. Rebecca... I’m Samuel... I heard from your husband here that you are my biggest fan... Thank you for your love....}
Rebecca’s eyes misted a bit watching the video of the actor speaking in Joe’s phone and her hands extended unconsciously, to get his phone. When her slender fingers gripped his phone and tried to grab it, she felt the phone still held on by Joe tightly. His fingers grazed hers and as if she touched an open fire, she retracted her hand.
