Chapter 914

Everyone's jokes only made Zoe very awkward.

She was certainly confused with what Jay was doing, running around this late at night especially with

his lame foot!

"Sorry, I couldn't join the party since I was a little busy. I'll make it up to everyone next time." He smiled.

"The little one keeps clinging to you, is it?" one of the thespians teased.

"Well, I just managed to coax her to sleep," Jay replied-Yelena had certainly been clingy ever since

they moved in together, and he basically could not leave the house once he reached home.

"And you couldn't wait to get Zoe once you did, huh?" someone added.

Jay admitted to it openly too. "Yeah, I'm worried she drank too much and was lucky to make it in time.

Well, it is quite late, so I'm taking Zoe home for now. Let's have a gathering when we can."

"Bye, Mr. Parker!"

"Bye, Zoe!"

As Zoe followed Jay to the MPV, Jay took her hand-she could not refuse with so many others watching,

and they locked fingers while they walked and everyone watched.

Naturally, she let go once in the MPV and said bluntly, "You didn’t have to come this late."

"People would be concerned that our marriage is troubled if I didn't."

"No, they wouldn't." Zoe was certainly skeptical.

"The tabloids would come up with anything for clicks," Jay told her.

She did not want to argue at that point and said, "Anyway, you don't have to come out to get me from

now on. Don't you know that the more we hype up our marriage, the worse the criticism would be when

we break up? Let's just stay distant so that no one would find it questionable even when we split up."

Jay said nothing in response.

That was how he behaved whenever he got upset, even if his displeasure never registered on his face.

Zoe did not offer any kind words, however, since she was just speaking the truth.

She had no problems if he wanted to build up his image as a nice guy, since it was showbiz and

everyone should package themselves with a nice front to sell well.

She just did not want more issues in the future, since the more they bound themselves to each other,

the harder it would be for them to be parted.

The car suddenly turned silent, and the atmosphere was a little depressing too.

Still, things were not that relaxed when Zoe had to be alone with Jay-it was not easy to shake off the

awkwardness of being familiar but also unfamiliar at once.

Suddenly, Zoe's phone started ringing.

Seeing a number she did not recognize, she wondered who would be calling this late even as she

politely answered, "Hello?"

"Hello, Ms. York. I'm Ruby Jones, the producer of Journey of Love. I was wondering if your schedule is

clear for you to take part in the second season of our program with Mr. Parker?"

Zoe had certainly heard of Journey of Love, since it was a tour variety show involving star celebrity

couples. The first season had hit several milestones in variety show viewership, and audiences had an

even higher expectation for the second season, so it was already trending and talked about frequently

online.

Naturally, exposure on such a program would naturally boost one's ratings as well.

However, Zoe sighed feebly. "I've been receiving many endorsement deals recently, so I don't think I

can take part with my schedule."

"When would your schedule be clear? We can adjust the filming schedule accordingly." Ruby was

certainly sincere.

"I'm fine with that, but if I recall, Jay has upcoming projects-"

"Actually, we've already liaised with Mr. Parker, and he told us there was no issue. We just need to go

along with your schedule," Ruby said bluntly.
