In a twinkling of an eye, the two hottest months of the summer of the Arlington had passed. The early autumn was approaching, and the wind in the morning and evening had become chill than before. People who were afraid of cold began to wear shirts with long sleeves.

Joanne was one of them, but she still didn't get used to wearing long sleeves since the summer of the Arlington had just begun, why did it become so cold suddenly?

So unconsciously, was it because she had been too leisure recently?

In the past two months, she went to work with Brian every morning. Sometimes he needed to work overtime, so he asked Winston to pick her up. She really couldn't think of what she could do when she was at home, so she went to his company.

At first, he was slightly surprised, but after a few times, she couldn't bother him working when she came to the office. Sometimes she would make some mischievous deliberately to bother him, he was not angry at all, but always coaxed her to go outside to play with the secretary with a tone of treating a child.

After a few times, she was really familiar with the secret assistants of Brian. The secretaries even dared to trick her, and asked her to go to the nearby cake shop for egg tarts. She accidentally found that they were really good, thus she had been willing to do that every time. She also liked to share it with Brian, but since he was not really a fan of such snacks, he could only eat half of one after she persuaded him.

Occasionally, she needed to work overtime, so Brian would waited to pick her up until she got off work. He would wait on her seat and browsed her notebook. After a few days, Joanne discovered that Brian had filled the notebook with her name.

His handwriting looked strong and powerful, but revealed a slight gentleness. Joanne could not help asking him. "Are you holding too much resentment to me because of waiting, or missing me?"

Brian raised his lips, "You guess."

Joanne, "..."

They were very intimate, and the single girls in the office began to express their envy, saying that they felt nothing at all of being single, but wanted to fall in love after seeing her and Brian together.

Joanne said, "Then go find someone to love! What are you still waiting for when you are young and beautiful?"

The colleagues said that she did not know about romantic relationships of normal people, and a good man was too difficult to find!

When it was almost autumn, Freya was about to have her debut.

With the help of Lambert Group Media Co. , and the most capable agent clearing the way for her, she soon received a notice of taking a set of photos for a fashion magazine.

That was a fashion magazine that Freya really liked and cared about, of which the models were basically front-line celebrities. It was rare for the agent to win this opportunity for her. Freya yelled on the phone and said that she wanted to celebrate with Joanne. "I've never dreamed that I would take pictures for Vogue! We must celebrate!"

"But how?" Joanne said, "You are now on a strict diet. Or... coming to my house?"

"Okay," since Freya's training intensity had been greatly reduced, and she had no class to attend, so she had much free time, "I will drive there soon, wait for me!"

Joanne hung up the phone and picked up the bag and walked out of the police station. Lu Boayn's car just stopped in front of her.

She pulled the door and got on. "Okay, let's go home."

"Gavin and some people will come over tonight." Brian suddenly said.

"What?" Joanne took a moment to react, "They... come over to eat?"

During the half a year after she and Brian got married, she found that Gavin seldom came to Brian's home. Besides eating, she couldn't think of another reason.

"They want to use the audio-visual room."

Now Joanne understood that since the World Cup matches were in full swing, the screen would definitely blow out every time when the results came out. Every single man in the office was discussing which the best shooting was last night, and they went sleepy and dreamy in the afternoon, shouting "Go!" in their dreams.

So people like Gavin were also soccer fans? And they were ready to stay up late tonight to watch the final?

She didn't know why, but suddenly felt strange, since there were only her and Brian at home for a long time. It seemed to be bizarre that some men just popped out in the house.

Brian seemed to see through her being unnatural. "Your brother will also come over."

"My brother?" Joanne was stunned, "Freya will come over later..."

Brian raised his lips. "Isn't it perfect?"

Joanne was surprised. "Brian, I just found out that you are a bit dark inside..."

He did not answer but drive the car into the villa area.

At home, Joanne thought it was still early, plus there were enough fresh ingredients in the kitchen, she then asked Brian to call Gavin to have dinner together, and she would cook for them.

"Would it be too troublesome to cook for five people?" Brian said, "Let the chef do it?"

Joanne showed a look as if she was saying it was just a piece of cake. "It's not a big deal. When I was studying abroad, I have done it for a dozen people for countless times!"

Brian saw her full of confidence, then asked Simon to make the call. He rolled up his sleeves. "Let me help you."

Joanne was happy to be helped, so she gave him a lot of vegetables. "You can even deal with the crayfish, then today's dishes are all handed over to you! I will tell Gavin and those people that it's all because of you!"

Brian then splashed a few drops of water on her face. She blocked with her hand, and pretended to be angry to push him. She then turned over to cut up the vegetables.

When Gavin arrived and saw Brian and Joanne working together in the kitchen, his eyes goggled like he saw the ninth wonder of the world.

Brian... washing vegetables.

Damn, the name should not be consistent with this verb, okay? It was too discordant and too challenging for the public's psychological endurance!

However, the picture at the moment was not contradictory at all-

Outside the French transparent windows, there was a green meadow with a light golden sunset spread over it, and the flowers were blooming in the gardens, which looked like a picture. Inside the windows, the tall and straight man, was working tacitly with the slim and beautiful woman, their occasional laughter and every single move was full of happiness, inexplicably presented a feeling of tranquility.

Sure enough, only Joanne in this world could influence Brian. Before they got married, Mr. Brian was always cold and short-spoken, and always took actions so resolutely! But now... Gavin was wondering if people would still be afraid of Brian if he posted how he looked like right now to the internal forum of the company?

Joanne first noticed that Gavin standing outside the door and smiled. "We can start in another half an hour."

"Okay!" Gavin stood straight, "Then I'll have to thank sister-in-law on behalf of those foodies!"

Joanne's lips almost twitched. "You... can call me by the name. I am not used to... sister-in-law."

"Why?" Gavin felt unfair, "Don't you fell enjoyable when those little boys called you a sister-in-law?"

"They are almost the same age as me, some are even younger than me." Joanne coughed, "You are too old..."

"..." Gavin felt like an arrow shot in the chest. After two seconds, he snarled angrily. "I am only 28 years old! 28! Two years younger than your husband!"

Joanne laughed innocently. "I know that you are 28 years old, and you look like you are 28."

Gavin touched his face. "Then why you still think that I am old! It is obvious that the one around you is older!"

"Emm," Joanne threw two strawberries in the pot, "but he looks like twenty-five or six..."

Gavin felt himself being struck by lightning this time.

Brian kept washing the lettuce in the sink slowly, and finally said four words. "Gavin, get out."

"..." Gavin, who severely suffered, got out with tears all over his face.

When all the dishes were served on the table, Chris and his accompanies also arrived. Except for Shen Yuchuan and Wesley, who Joanne were familiar with, she barely talked to the rest of them, but met at the anniversary celebration. One of them was the so-called captain in the "Bodyguard" by Brian.

Coincidentally, Freya also came in at this time, and she subconsciously "wowed" when she saw so many people. "Dine together?" She also patted on Gavin's shoulder when she saw him, "You are here too."

Only Brian noticed that Chris's face went serious. Brian suddenly felt good and said something to Joanne's ear, she quietly answered back and took Freya to the wine room.

"Wow-" Freya roughly glanced at the wine on the wine rack, "Your Mr. Brian is corrupt enough. He is indeed a golden bachelor!"

Joanne took a bottle of wine and stuffed it to Freya, and took another two bottles of wine on the shelf. "Go up."

Going back to the dinning room, Freya noticed Chris and goggled her eyes. "Why are you here?"

Gavin immediately said before Chris got the chance to answer. "Tonight's World Cup final is Germany against Argentina, we are here to use the audio-visual room, of which the picture and sound effect will definitely make you feel like you are on-site. What do you say? Are you staying to watch together?"

Freya had never missed previous World Cups in the past few years. But the agent asked her not to stay up late this year, plus the training during the day was really exhausting, so she did not pay much attention to it, and she was surprised that the final was at tonight!

"I'd rather die than watch the finals in replay!" Freya decided, "I want to watch!"

Chris frowned. "The live broadcast is at four in the morning, why do you still watch? Just go back after dinner!"

Freya humphed. "You can't control me."

Gavin smiled and added. "Exactly, Chris, you are not someone to Freya, why should she listen to you and go back after eating?"

He was deliberate, he was intentional.

Brian finally said something and asked them to join the dinner when Chris's face went blue. Joanne naturally sat next to him, and Freya sat next to her.

In this way, Freya was far away from Chris, but it faced directly to Gavin. They naturally had more interactions. Joanne couldn't help asking. "When did you become so familiar?"

If she remembered correctly, they just met each other when they played tennis last time.

"You don't know? He is not only the personal assistant of your Mr. Brian, but also the director of the artists of Lambert Group Media Co. ," Freya said, "we can see each other a lot in the company, so we can talk more and get familiar."

Joanne peeped Chris who was talking to someone next to him. He seemed to be completely unconcerned with Freya, and the serious expression on his face just now was as if the illusion that she suddenly had.

"Freya..." Joanne lowered her voice, "you'd better stay away from Gavin, he..."

"Do you think he wants to chase after me?" Freya couldn't help laughing, "Girl, you are too naive. I am not the type for Gavin, and he is not mine. We can just have fun together, but definitely can't fall in love with each other. Besides, Gavin is never short of girlfriends! He has mistresses of more than 3,000."
