Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 689:

Bobby put his hands in his pockets, leaning in with a knowing look as he regarded Fannie closely. “Are you jealous?”

Fannie was taken aback by his smugness. Was he enjoying this? “What makes you think that?”

Bobby grinned mischievously. “Then why won’t you sign Judie? Does it upset you? Just admit it. Seeing me with Judie makes you uncomfortable, doesn’t it? Watching me pamper her surely gets under your skin.”

Fannie clenched her fists, too enraged to come up with a sharp retort. But as Jett’s girlfriend, she couldn’t let Bobby’s words affect her.

Refusing to satisfy his taunting, she spoke in a cool, businesslike tone. “Judie approached me because she’s bothered by our past. Do you think she can do her job properly under me? You know she’s here to cause trouble, yet you still indulge her.”

Bobby shrugged nonchalantly. “Why not, if it’s what makes her happy?”

Fannie’s frustration flared. “Haven’t you invested so much in her career? Endorsements, ads, magazines, TV shows, movies… If she doesn’t work well with her agent and something goes wrong, her career in the entertainment industry could be over. Have you thought about that?”

Bobby nodded, unfazed. “I have. If that happens, I’ll support her. I don’t want her to suffer through acting, but she enjoys it. Whatever she wants to achieve, I’ll make it happen for her.”

Fannie could hardly believe the absurdity of what she was hearing. “Are you even serious about Judie?”

“Nothing complicated. Sign Judie and be her agent.” Bobby’s tone was casual, but the intent was clear.

Fannie sneered, her eyes narrowing. “Aren’t you afraid I’d make her shoot adult films?”noveldrama

Bobby raised an eyebrow, clearly amused by her response. “Would you?”

“Of course,” Fannie replied, crossing her arms defiantly. “I’m an agent, after all. She may be your girlfriend, but she’s just another artist to me.”

Bobby put his hands in his pockets, leaning in with a knowing look as he regarded Fannie closely. “Are you jealous?”

Fannie was taken aback by his smugness. Was he enjoying this? “What makes you think that?”
