Chapter 487 - Who to carry them? (1/2)

Jeremy was glaring at Jason while Mr. Long ignored the two as he read the investment section in the newspaper. He found the two younger men too childish than their age but it was not inappropriate. They should play around like this when they have the chance and time.

”Pack everything carefully,” Mrs. Long reminded as she walked to the front with the group of maids following behind. Every one of them was holding a basket full of food.

”Are you sure the girls can bring them all?” Mr. Long asked his wife when he saw how many baskets were there. Could the girls carry them with just the two of them?

”Jason will help them,” Mrs. Long announced. She chose Jason because Mika needed someone to accompany her while waiting for the program to end. She deliberately did not choose Jeremy because she knew her son could distract Ryn when Ryn went there to work and needed to stay focus. And she also knew Ryn would feel uncomfortable with Jeremy in the same building during the program.

Once they were officially engaged then she would not stop Jeremy from accompanying Ryn to any show or program on television. Right now she was protecting Ryn but later the responsibility would be on Jeremy's shoulders.

”You are not late. Trust me,” Mika insisted as the two of them walking down the stairs and walked through the living room.

The men and Mrs. Long looked at them. Jeremy even stood up as his eyes could not blink at the sight of Ryn.

He knew how beautiful Ryn was, inside and out. He knew how perfect each outfit on her. But right now he felt like the first time he met her and fell in love with her. Yes, she was his first love and the feeling appeared the first time he saw her. Of course, no one knew the exact moment he fell in love with her except him. He did not show immediately because of his pride and ego but he kept inside and watched her first. His love grew every single day until he confessed and she accepted his feeling.

Actually, he fell in love with her so many times he lost count. The amount was not important but his feeling was important. The only thing he cared about was her. She belonged to him and she understood and accepted it. That was all that matter to him.

”A student theme?” Jason asked with a frown. He remembered this kind of image Ryn had when he first met her. But this was much more... girly? Ryn was much more reserved, cold, and quiet. But this woman... no, girl, in front of him looked friendlier and warmer.

Ryn twitched her lips hearing Jason's question. Thanks to Mika, she felt like returning back to her school day. She felt so young like a teenager. The minimalist accessory she wore helped to make her look younger. The accessory that she wore was only the love earrings. Nothing else. Well, except for the watch.

”Put all the baskets into the car,” Mrs. Long ordered.

”What basket?” Mika did not realize the baskets until she heard her mother's order. Her eyes widened at the sight of so many baskets. ”What are they for?”

”These are some snacks we made for the crews,” Mrs. Long said proudly. ”Just chocolate brownies and strawberry macaroons.”

She did not think much about brownies, though. She knew how to make one so she knew how easy it was, especially for someone like the cook. But macaroons...

”Anyway, we have already packed everything so make sure to bring them to the studio,” Mrs. Long waved her hand to shake off the question in the younger women's eyes.

Ryn glanced at Mika. Were they going just the two of them or with the maids following with them? Weren't only both of them going to the studio tonight?

”I do hope, mother, that you leave some for us,” Jason asked as he stood beside Mika and smiled hugely at his future mother-in-law. He was now calling Mika's parents 'father' and 'mother' just like Jeremy and Mika while Mika called his parents 'father' and 'mother'.

It was logical for them as they were counting the days to be husband and wife.

”Of course, my dear son,” Mrs. Long replied as she signaled to the butler who was actually carrying a tray. The tray held a three-tier cake tray and with the largest dish held brownies, the middle one has macaroons and the top part held candies.

The butler put the tray on the coffee table carefully. Another maid came and arranged glasses of orange juice and milk on the table.

”I don't think we have time for that. Let's go, Ryn,” Mika kissed Jason lightly before took Ryn's hand and walked to the door.

”We're going, uncle, aunty, Jeremy, Jason, and uncle,” Ryn waved goodbye to them as she let Mika leading her. She was glad actually when Mika decided not to spend more time here and go straight to the studio. She did not want to be late even though it was a recording, not a live show.

”Where do you think you're going?” Mrs. Long asked when she saw her son,  Jeremy, who quickly followed behind the younger women. What was he doing? Didn't he know that Ryn would go with Mika alone?

”I...” Jeremy stopped. His shoulders dropped.
