Chapter 639 He Is Jealous

A glance at her, Max snorted.

"Oh, I didn't know you were watching me. I thought you were too busy talking with them!"

Laura stopped undressing and looked at him in confusion.

Her mind went blank for a few seconds, then she finally realized he was being jealous.

"Oh come on!"

Laura felt it was ridiculously funny.

Max sniffed but said nothing.

After Laura put away her scarf and coat, she walked over and squatted down before him to observe his face. He indeed seemed to be in a bad mood.

"I just shared a meal with my coworkers. I didn't drink much. Don't be so unreasonable," she said with a smile.

Max pouted.

He knew he was being unreasonable.

But he was very protective of her.

He didn't want her to beam at other men as well.

He couldn't stand it when she drank with them.

After thinking for a while, he said, "Fine, I shouldn't be so unreasonable today. But I hate those men staring at you like that. Laura, you know what I mean. I didn't do anything this time because I don't want you to look bad in front of your coworkers and because of the promise I gave to my mother. But I don't want it to happen again."

Laura frowned.

In fact, she knew what the photographer was implying to her tonight, but unspoken rules were everywhere in the show business.

It was hard to tell what was right and what was wrong sometimes with a large gray area.

Not everyone could say no to unspoken rules in this game.

Laura didn't know how to explain this to Max.

From his position, he could barely understand it.

He was born into a wealthy family and didn't need to submit to humiliation.

It was impossible for him to be subservient to others.

In the end, Laura gave a sigh, then went to sit next to him.

"I'm sorry, I didn't know you were uncomfortable about this. It won't happen again."

Once she finished, she slightly lowered her head.

Although she apologized, she clearly sounded tired and resigned.

Max's heart ached for her.

He didn't want to blame her. As a man, he was reluctant to see his wife embarrassed. He wanted to protect her.

But the photographer didn't do anything too far.

He even didn't have a reason to teach him a lesson.

Seeing Laura being so upset, he reached out to pull her into his arms.

"Honey, I know you love acting. And it's good that you chase your dream. But bear it in your mind that you're my wife. We're a legal couple. No one, except me, in this world can bully you. You don't need to be subservient to others either."

"I can give you whatever you want. Whatever your dream is, I can pave the way for you towards it. I don't want any man to look at you like that again. I hope you can stay with me and never leave me." Laura was pressed tight to his chest.

She could hear his heartbeat and feel his warmth.

It felt so good that she melted into his embrace.

After a long while, she slowly reached out her arms to hug him too.

"I know. And I won't leave you", she said gently.

In silence, both of them enjoyed the hug for a while, then Laura suddenly remembered something. "Oh, I have something for you."

"What is it?" Max let her go and asked.

"Wait a sec," Laura beamed.

After that, she walked out of his arms towards the door.

When she came back just then, she hung her bag on the stand by the door.

She took it, then stepped to Max.

After sitting down on the sofa, she drew out a pair of keychains.

"I found these beautiful keychains after I arrived here. I didn't know you came too. So I planned to give it to you when we're home. I was busy and forgot about it. Now, this is for you." The keychains were two characters: a boy and a girl.

They were obviously a couple.

They weren't expensive, but were quite delicate and meaningful.

Max's heart melted in an instant.

Laura gave the boy's keychain to him and laughed, "Will you think it's too childish?"

Max was the heir of the Nixon family after all. It was indeed amusing if he carried such a keychain with him.

Unexpectedly, Max took it in happiness, "Not at all! I like it."

He held the keychain in his palm. After sizing it up, he looked at hers.

All of a sudden, he exchanged his with hers.

"What are you doing? The girl is mine," said Laura.

Max directly attached his car key to the girl's keychain.

"Since this is our love token, I should have yours and you should have mine. It means we're always together," he said and covered the boy's keychain with her fingers. Laura was taken aback but had to agree on that.

But...

She gave a glance at the car key of a luxury sports car in his hand, feeling it was still quite amusing.

"Do you really think it matches you?"

Max laughed and kissed her lips.

"I love whatever you send me."

Sweet nothings were always so warm.

Laura beamed and attached her keys to the boy's keychain.

The two cuddled for a while longer on the sofa, then went to take a shower and sleep.

The next day, Laura smoothly finished her work.

The crew took a flight back home right in the afternoon.

It was a regular business trip.

The next work on Laura's schedule would be seven days later.

She specially told Maria to clear her schedule for a few days because her mother was about to be discharged from the hospital.

There was also another very important thing.

She would help her mother divorce Diego.

Upon thinking of that, Laura became serious.

The result of the investigation had come out. Diego had committed homicides and would be sentenced to death. But it wasn't executed yet.

If Laura's mother couldn't divorce him before he died, her mother would be known as a murderer's wife for the rest of her life.
