Chapter 63 Holidaying together (1/2)
Ryn switched on her phone back once it was permitted to do so. She frowned seeing so many messages and even missed calls. All were from Mei Li and Mika.
She glanced at Jeremy who did the same as hers and was frowning.
”What's wrong?”
”It's nothing. Mei Li's?”
”Hmm… Let's go.” Instead of calling Mei Li or Mika back, Ryn grabbed her backpack and headed to the door.
Jeremy followed behind. He kept his phone into the pocket and smiled at the steward and stewardess. He also agreed to take a picture with them.
And then he realized she did not even bother waiting for him.
”Wait up,” he called. Luckily his legs were quite long. It took him no time to catch up with her… only to realize she was purposely slowly down her pace. Oh yes, her legs were long too.
They quickly got through the immigration counter. He pushed their bags, following behind her happily.
”I'm starving,” she murmured sadly as they were walking out of the arrival gate.
”We'll check in at the hotel fir-” his words trailed off when shout, shriek and even yell hit them hard, even before they walked through the gate.
”What… was going on?” she choked out in confused especially when reporters started to gather around them.
”Jeremy, is it true you are going steady with Catherine?”
”Are both of you lovers?”
”Are you holidaying together?”
His fans were screaming and shrieking while the reporters kept throwing questions. They did not even allow Ryn to slip away.
Ryn adjusted her cap and sighed heavily. Her shoulders sagged down. She somehow knew this would happen. Jeremy did not even bother disguising himself when they were boarding the flight. He even used a bag that has his monogram!
Stupid Jeremy!
Jeremy made sure that Ryn was standing behind him. He adjusted his sunglasses and smiled at the reporters. He even lifted his hand and waved at his fans.
”Thank you for welcoming me to your beautiful country. Actually I could not tell what I am doing here,” he winked and placed a finger against his lips.
His fans shrieked even louder.
”So you're saying you have work commitment here?” a reporter asked.
”No comment,” Jeremy winked again.
”May we make an assumption you and Ryn are together for a secret project?” another reporter asked.
”Catherine, why won't you say anything?” a reporter tried to shove his recorder to her.
Jeremy quickly stopped him, protecting Ryn. Still pasting a smile on his face, he looked at the reporter. ”Woah, there. You can ask question to me. No need to harass a girl.”
The reporter stepped backward, looking awkward receiving the chid. Even though Jeremy was smiling and saying those words rather playfully, he could feel the warning lacing in the words. His eyes looked at Jeremy's face. He gulped hard. Somehow he could see not Jeremy, the singer, but Jeremy, the CEO.
So scary.
Jeremy refused to say more and kept on smiling and waving his hands at the fans. He also agreed to take pictures with some fans, resulting to some fans lost conscious.
