Chereads / My Scandalous Love / Chapter 3 - 3. The Tamed Cassanova

Chapter 3 - 3. The Tamed Cassanova

"Hello Mrs Lee?"

Annoyed with that call, she suddenly vent her anger to Amy.

"AMY LIU SMITH!!!!"

The man who called Fiona was getting closer, but she didn't even look at the him. Her gaze remained fixed on Amy, as if asking her for an explanation of the man's arrival.

"Fiona... If glare could kill, looks like your sharp glare could kill me now."

Fiona glared more intently at Amy after hearing her word. The man who was now right behind Fiona still smiling at Fiona's behavior.

"Fiona dear, let your husband explain to you."

Hearing that man word Fiona getting more irritated without turning to her husband, Fiona dragged Amy into the building, leaving the man who was still smiling while following them silently.

"Amy.... You didn't say he was here. Last time I checked with the director there wasn't his name on the list."

Fiona asked in a half whisper while looking around the hall, making sure that anyone wasn't passing by. Averting her gaze, Amy tried to find an excuse.

"Ehmm... I asked the director to not inform you."

Fiona was ready to be angry again.

"Wait don't be angry."

Fiona who was ready to explode again tried to hold her anger.

"You've been busy this last two weeks staying at my house, taking care of casting and companiying me shooting for a new project. I feel so sorry for your husband."

Fiona was still silent but the look in her eyes asked for more explanation from Amy.

"Every time we met, he asked about you. Remember when you couldn't take me to a meeting? We happened to meet after a meeting with the director. And it just give me an idea that I shouldn't tell you that he's going on this project."

Fiona taking a deep breath.

"You know that just a few people know we're married."

Amy look puzzled hearing Fiona words.

"Then?"

Amy's innocent face, waiting for Fiona's explanation.

"Amy, we're just set up to avoiding he make scandal. He's not serious about this marriage. Only Mrs Hana, his mother is serious about marrying us."

Amy's face still showed a question mark. Fiona feel annoyed to explain this problem repeatedly to Amy.

"Amy, it's troublesome to meet him. We're just husband and wife on paper. In reality, he is the son of the agency owner who accidently begging me stoped her son's scandal. That's why that ashamed actor want to marry me."

Amy didn't quiet understand Fiona's word.

"But, I think he's really love you?"

Fiona's cynical laughter echoed in the hall. Amy is getting confused with Fiona.

"Amy.... Amy.... You are so naive. He just like to tease me. He's just looking for replacement for his bully object without causing scandal."

Amy wants to explain again, but was immediately stopped by Fiona.

"Come on, let's go, we'll be late."

Fiona left her but Amy seem didn't want to move, Amy was still trying to understand Fiona's words.

"She really hates me right? It's really sad that my own wife didn't want to pay attention to me."

Know whose voice came from behind of her. Amy took a deep breath.

"Brother Wayne.... If she hates you, how could she "learn" to cook with me every morning and send her masterpieces to your house every day."

Wayne just give Amy a bitter smile.

"The masterpieces that she has designed to make me have stomachache almost every day."

Amy look a little suprised.

"You really ate it!"

Amy's disbelieving face was so funny that it made Wayne laugh.

"Ha ha ha..... Hmmm..... That means she really want to poison me huh?"

Wayne look gloomy. Seeing his face like that, Amy seemed to feel guilty for saying that.

"Trust me she didn't mean to do that, she really didn't know how to cook. Fiona really clumsy when measuring ingredients. She's really useless when it comes to cooking."

Wayne chuckled hearing her explanation.

"Amy... She do that because she was only obeyed my mother's orders, to watch over and take care of me."

A disappointment look appeared on Wayne's face when he said that. She feel more and more guilty.

"You really loves Fiona, don't you?"

Bitterly smile appeared at his face.

"More than you know and maybe Fiona will never want to know."

Thinking hard Amy searched for the right words to lighten the mood and encourage the man in front of her.

"Wayne... I'll tell you something."

Wayne look curious hearing the word.

"Fiona hate cooking the most. As long as she is my manager. I am the one who always prepared food for her. She even refused to step into the kitchen. But since getting married she has started to enjoy following me into the kitchen. She is curious about cooking."

This time Amy chuckled remembering how messy her beloved kitchen for these past two weeks while she was cooking with Fiona.

Amy suddenly clicked and seem to have found the answer of something. Suddenly everything is clearly connected.

Amy slap her forehead as if to say,

'How stupid am I.'

Wayne who saw Amy's behavior looked a little confused.

"Fiona learned to cook because she wanted prepare your breakfast Wayne. When I asked who is preparing your needs. Fiona said that you only want to breakfast if Fiona companiying you."

Amy's suddenly grinning like an idiot. And became excited because she knew the reason why Fiona learning to cook all this time.

"She doesn't want you to starve... Oooh so sweet."

Hearing her chatter, Wayne suddenly covered his face with one hand and the other signaled Amy to stop talking.

Amy was silent for a moment and looked at Wayne's face. But a few minutes later Amy burst in to laugh when she saw Wayne who was embarrassed because of that.

"I'm so happy that Fiona is paying attention to you, ha ha ha....."

Can't stand with Amy's laugh. Wayne ruffled Amy's red hair.

"Wow... Wow... Brother Wayne if you want to create a scandal, don't come here. Especially before casting."

Amy, who was still trying to tidy up her hair, was surprised to know whose the owner of that voice.

"Sherly, we better get in right away. I don't want to get into a scandal with them."

Amy wanted to explain what really happened but was quickly stopped by Wayne. With a calm face and a smile still on his face, Wayne greeted the two newcomers.

Amy was amazed to see Wayne who can quickly control his emotions, even though a few minutes ago his face was still so red from embarrassment.

"Ah... Sherly with you too. Hello Sherly, I hope we can be co-star in this film."

Holding out his hand, he shook Sherly's hand. Sherly replied him with gentle smile.

"Hello, Brother Wayne. I met Barry outside, so both of us came in together."

Sherly reached out her hand to Amy too but got no response. Amy, who was nervous meeting with Sherly and still surprised with Barry's comment, looked stiff and didn't show a smile at all.

Confused about what to do with those two newcomers, suddenly Fiona's voice pop out. Fiona's voice rescued her from that place.

"Oh my gosh, Amy! You're still here. Come on, you'll have your first turn. I thought you were in the room."

Without glancing at Wayne, Fiona pulled Amy's hand into the room.

"Ms Fiona Tan, thank you for your help every morning."

Wayne shout at her and tease her again. His shout made Fiona turn her head. Not a deathful glare that Wayne see but Fiona cute red face who looks a little embarrassed. This blown was enough to make him happy all day long.

"Hmm... Looks like Amy and her manager are both so cold."

Barry snickering at Sherly statement.

"Huh, she just didn't want us to ask about her scandal. Just look when she is talking at director, she will be definitely be a sweet girl."

Wayne didn't agree with Barry statement.

"Sherly, don't worry, they are just nervous before casting. And for you, Barry. You should prepare yourself for casting to be the main character instead of teasing Amy or...."

He paused a minute before continued his world.

"You need this Big Brother help you win Amy's heart."

Sherly who was surprised by Wayne's statement spontaneously asked.

"Eh.... You like Amy?"

Barry was instantly silent without arguing. He looks embarrassed to hear his senior words.

"Oops... Look like you are so shy Barry. Ha ha....."

Wayne mocking Barry again.

"Calm down, Brother Wayne will help you to win her. As long as you can be the main character in this series."

Wayne's voice was calm, but sharp and piercing to Barry's ears. Barry knew there was no way he could compete with the artist who is known as the King of the Drama Series. It seem that he forced a smile when responding to Wayne's comments.

"Thanks bro for your support. Looks like we've been here too long. We'd better get in soon."

Barry really trying to remain calm.

"Good idea! Come on Sherly."

Finally the three of them went to the casting location where Amy and Fiona were getting ready.

"You're crazy Amy! Why are you talking to Wayne for so long?"

A triumphant smile appeared on Amy's face.

"Looks like someone's jealous.. Oops...."

With a snickering smile Amy tease her manager.

"Amy be more serious, will you? You know he is famous as the Casanova of Drama Series. If you look close with him, there will be news that you have an affair."

Fiona seem concerning about Amy.

"Haaaah... Anyone I'm close with would be ended being headline as my affair."

Fiona could not deny Amy's words.

"But you believes that all of stupid rumors was not truer right?"

Fiona confidently answered Amy's question.

"Are you crazy? Of course!! Who is always minimizes your scandal and handle every time there is bad news about you."

Amy smile brightly at her manager.

"Thanks my lovely manager."

Fiona smile faintly and sighed heavily.

"Haaaah Amy... You are always ehm what that people says..."

Fiona thinking for a while.

"You are the right man on the right place at the right time."

Amy was confused about the meaning of Fiona's words and just looked at Fiona.

"You're always in the right place at the right time to spark a scandal. And the right person to become paparazzi target for their gossip."

Fiona is right about that. There were always reporters whenever Amy was in trouble. Even if it's not Amy who is the source of the problem. Because of her image, the news will be more exciting if Amy is also involved. But there's something Amy doesn't agree from Fiona's statement.

"But I'm a woman...."

Hearing Amy's word Fiona look so pissed off.

"Amy!!! You really!!!"
