Chapter 618 - Youre Not Objective! (1/2)
London dropped L in front of the studio. He didn't come down. Outside, Pammy was already waiting for L and accompanied her inside.
”There's a slight change in schedule. We should wait inside,” Pammy informed while holding L's hand. She nodded towards London to express her gratitude for taking her artist to the studio.
London nodded in return and drove away. On the way to his penthouse to change attires before returning to the office, he smiled to himself. He imagined L's surprise when she found out how the backing dancers and musicians at the festival were all plus-sized. Their presence would surely make her look as slim and s.e.xy as she wanted.
Too bad he wouldn't be there to see her smile.
Come to think of it, L was indeed stingy with her smiles. London could only remember L smiling when she was being photographed or interviewed on television. The girl had never smiled naturally in front of him...
Except when they were... ahem... m.a.k.i.n.g. .l.o.v.e.
His face turned red at the thought of the incident.
Dammit. If this kept up, how could he possibly concentrate on working? Every time he remembered L, he would remember that event. The research said that men think about s.e.x every five minutes, and London had to admit it. He never thought about s.e.x explicitly, but ever since he was with L, he often thought of her beautiful body and s.e.xy m.o.a.n when they made love.
Focus, Mr. Schneider! You still have to think about various things that are far more important! For example, how will you take care of your child after L leaves, and most importantly... how will you tell your family about the child!
Ugh...
When he changed his clothes at the penthouse, London remembered L's comment about him only having three sets of clothes. That made L conclude that London was actually dirt poor.
Uhm... his lips smiled remembering that. It turned out that even though she seemed cold and uncaring, L was actually quite concerned about him. If L didn't care about him, how could she notice that London only had three sets of clothes?
He buttoned up his expensive shirt then sat in his office chair while opening his laptop. He had better buy some cheap clothes so he wouldn't seem too suspicious.
He opened a marketplace website and searched for clothes, then sorted them from the lowest prices.
Hmm... he found a few clothes that looked quite decent and were cheap. He clicked buy then checkout. The clothes he ordered would arrive by express delivery to his office later in the evening. He would then bring his new clothes home after work.
After he finished shopping, he returned to the office cheerfully.

”How strange...” L said suddenly.
”What is?” London asked while driving without taking his eyes off the road. He just picked L up from the studio, and now, they were on their way home.
”Earlier, my training schedule was changed last-minute, and all my regular dancers couldn't come. Their schedules clashed with another singer's concert. The company had to find another team of dancers to accompany me... How strange.” L shrugged, looking confused.
London faintly smiled at that. He knew that Jan Van Der Ven had a magic touch. Whatever he asked for, Jan would always be able to carry them out well and efficiently.
”You don't like the new team of dancers?” he asked while glancing at L.
”That's not it, I like it. They're nice, and...” The girl smiled a little, ”They're fatter than me... I'm no longer the sack of rice.”
London almost couldn't believe his own eyes. L smiled!
It looks like she's happy with her new team of dancers.
Ha. I knew it, London thought happily.
Inside, he praised his intelligence and quick wits.
Anyway, he won't let L be stressed, which would also stress their child. If it was just changing the dance team, it was basically nothing to him.
