Chapter 139 Feeling Anxious
"Did you go soft all because Lillee lost your parents and her baby at the same time? Lillee is doing well, and I can't see you doing anything like you promised. You have gone soft." Rory said to Tinsley disapprovingly over the phone.
Now Lillee is one of the current actresses everyone is running after. Her reputation is now pure in the eyes of everyone again, especially when she was caught multiple times grieving for her baby.
Even though the billionaire's deed didn't break a record like Taming her, it was still able to stir massive waves, which made Rory frustrated because she couldn't bear seeing the evil Lillee doing well after all she had done to Tinsley. Rory even believed that most of the things that happened to Lillee were probably related to her.
Tinsley laughed quietly at Rory's complaint. After all, she also understands the reason behind Rory's fussing, but everything will happen in the right course of time
"Are you sure you and Onyx went on a vacation because the time you're using to chat with me is more than the time you are spending together?" Tinsley teased Rory with a chuckle.
Rory rolled her eyes playfully; her mind had been led away from the topic by Tinsley's words, "No matter who I date, you are my first love forever. It is just that your domineering husband had to get you pregnant behind my back. Tell him I am on my way back to get you." Rory muttered eagerly.
"I will watch you dare." Jarek interrupted coldly. He quickly wrapped his hand around the chuckling Tinsley's waist domineeringly.

Rory was stunned upon hearing Jarek's voice because she never expected the both of them to be together, but before she could say a word, a displeased Jarek cut off the call.
"I told you Jarek is very protective of his wife." Onyx eyes lit up, and he quickly hugged her from behind while placing a kiss on her shoulder upon seeing her downcast expression.
Just like Tinsley said, Onyx had been ignored by Rory a lot to chat with Tinsley, and now that Rory was sent away from Tinsley's side by a protective Jarek, he hoped that they could have more fun.
"Hmph! Who cares about his wife? I have the most handsome man with me!" Rory quickly changed her words which left him chuckling.
He pecked her lips and led her outside. "Let's go and play, shall we?" He asked, and she nodded happily.
After weighing the pros and cons, he agreed to do what Tinsley wanted. It's not as if the movie festival takes that long anymore; it's less than two months.
"Okay." He replied. "Leave it to me; I'll take care of everything." He replied, and she nodded to him.
"Jarek, I want to ask you a question," she uttered eagerly, which made him squint his eyes, but he still nodded his head to signify that she could
"So I saw that the Norton's company share price had doubled, and they're rapidly picking up their positions, did you..."
"Yes, I let them go." Jarek interrupted, which made her let out an understanding 'oh.' After selling the shares, the double price at which he bought them, Jarek thought.
"Okay. That's good." She replied and separated from him. "Look, what I've written so far, do you think this is making sense? Oh, I feel so anxious these days." Tinsley complained and ran her hand through her hair, and pushed her book toward Jarek.
Jarek nodded and collected the book. However, he didn't open it; instead, he sat on the bed and placed her on his lap. "What's wrong?" He asked while caressing her hair.
