Chapter 384


    Natalie sent Jeremy a photo and a voice message. The photo was of her wrapping up work for the


    day.


    She didn’t have a lot to do today. She mainly had to serve tea and water while Austin was on break


    and doing whatever the manager asked. It wasn’t tiring at all.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this.


    Plus, she got to watch her idol act up close. She had to admit Austin’s acting skills were incredible.


    Watching him perform in person was incredibly captivating.


    She was utterly absorbed every time, even more so than watching a movie. She thought the other


    actors paled inparison to Austin. They were only wasting his time and effort.


    She nced at her phone, wondering what Jeremy was busy with since he had yet to reply. She


    was just asking if he’d be home for dinner.


    He had mentioned yesterday that work had eased up, and he could spend more time at home with


    her, including having dinner together.


    The workday was almost over, and he would usually inform her if he was busy with anything, but he


    hadn’t responded.


    Finally, she stood by the roadside, ready to hail a cab home.


    “Get in, I’ll have the driver take you home.”


    Suddenly, a car stopped before her. It was Austin’s car. As it stopped, the window rolled down,


    revealing Austin’s handsome face, distracting Natalie from her thoughts.


    Natalie was stunned and looked at Austin in surprise.


    “We probably aren’t headed the same way, Mr.Powell. I don’t want to take up your time, thank you!”


    The filming location that day was close to her home. It was only a short cab ride away, but it was in


    the opposite direction from where Austin lived. Since it was her first day at work, she didn’t dare


    trouble her


    boss for a ride.


    Seeing this, Austin simply nodded and said, “Alright.”


    As the window rolled up and the car drove away, Hank, who was in the car, raised an eyebrow and


    looked at Austin.


    “I can’t help but feel you’re different around her. She looks young, but she’s already married? I


    heard she and her husband were childhood sweethearts. They got engaged early, and married right


    after she graduated college. She’s a bright and innocent girl.”


    Hank’s message was clear–Austin was to keep his feelings in check.


    A girl who married right after college would indeed be devoted to her husband and wouldn’t blur the


    lines


    with other men, not even with her favorite idol.


    Natalie had clear boundaries. Otherwise, she would have gotten in the car just now.


    Austin nced at Hank and scoffed, “You’re an idiot.”


    Hank rolled his eyes and said, “We’ve known each other since you started working. We spend


    almost


    every day together. I know what you’re thinking. I didn’t expect you to like someone like Natalie.


    She’s innocen


    pretty, with a bright and generous personality. She’s very likable.”


    If she weren’t married, Hank wouldn’t mind Austin dating Natalie..


    “Wrong. You’ve never understood me,” Austin said calmly.


    Hank snorted, “You don’t understand me either, so we’re even.”


    As Austin’s car drove away, Natalie hailed a cab. Once home, she changed clothes and made


    herself dinner. Despite not being very busy today, she was starving.


    Jeremy still hadn’t responded, and she didn’t want to wait for him any longer. She decided to fill her


    stomach first.


    At this point, Natalie hadn’t realized she had grown ustomed to Jeremy’s absence. She stopped


    checking for his messages but instead updated her day to Skr.


    After she finished eating, Jeremy called. His voice sounded somewhat hoarse
