34 FAMILY DINNER (1/2)
”Talia, if you keep worrying like that you're going to turn into a wrinkled potato.” Her manager flicked her forehead gently as she scolded her.
”But I've been calling and texting him for a week now and he still hasn't replied...” Natalia rubbed her forehead and frowned.
”Maybe Alex is busy. After all, he is the one directing the company now.”
”You're right. He probably has a lot to do. Mrs. Zi even told me he was working on a shopping mall project. I should stop worrying. After my shoot today, I will go to see Mrs. Zi.”
Natalia had been trying to get in touch with Alex for a week now and still hadn't gotten through to him. All she ever did was talk about how she missed Alex, or how she couldn't wait to be Mrs. Zi. Her manager and assistant were beginning to get tired of her constant blabbering about Alex even though they encouraged her.
She currently sat in one of the chairs getting her makeup and hair done for a video shoot. One of the major skin care company Beautiful Care happened to be launching a new product and she had been signed on to be the actress in their advertisement. Since her signing with Bai Entertainment, her career had been going well. Her manager had just signed a movie contract with an Italian producer who had worked with several famous movie stars in the entertainment industry.
The video shoot took five hours and by the time she was done, it was already four in the afternoon.
As promised, she drove to the Zi mansion hoping she would meet Alex there. Madam Zi had informed her that he would often come back to the mansion on Wednesdays. Seeing that it was Wednesday, she called the mansion and informed them she would come for tea after her makeup had been done.
The moment she stepped out her car, Madam Zi greeted her warmly and escorted her in.
”Talia, two weeks have passed, and I have not seen you. Are you eating well? Please stay for dinner tonight. Alex will be home in two hours. I haven't seen you both for so long.”
Natalia smiled when she heard that Alex was coming for dinner.
