Chapter 1545 Sisters-In-Law
Julian and Jessie had arrived. They both came straight from the set to the restaurant, and they looked a little tired. “Hello, President Gilmore and Eva!” Jessie greeted.
Eva was surprised as she watched the duo enter the room together, as they both looked and behaved like a couple.
Louie was astute enough to notice that as well. Of course, he was aware that Jessie was special to his brother. “You don’t have to address me as President Gilmore, Jessie. Just call me Louie, as Julian does,” he said.
How can I do that? That took Jessie aback for a brief moment. She then quickly responded, “I shouldn’t do that. You are my superior, and I must respect you.” “All right, then!” Louie did not pursue the matter further.
Eva quickly drew Jessie to the seat beside her and inquired about her earlier filming. Meanwhile, the brothers had their eyes fixed on Eva and Jessie while the women were chatting, as they were the main protagonists now.
“Eva, I heard you only have slightly more than a dozen scenes left for you to wrap your part. Is that correct?” Jessie asked. Eva replied with a nod. “Yes. My filming will be completed in three or four days.”
“Then you’ll be leaving, won’t you? I’ll miss you though…” Jessie took Eva’s hand in hers as she spoke. “It’s all right. After you return to Averna, we can go out for meals or go shopping.” Eva had already taken Jessie as a friend.
Suddenly, Julian interrupted and asked curiously, “Is the news on the Internet true? Are you two seeing each other?”
“Of course, that is true,” Louie answered.
Eva’s face flushed as soon as she heard that. “Don’t listen to him,” she told Julian while sternly looking at Louie.
“I can’t promise anything else, Eva, but I can assure you that Louie’s feelings for you are genuine and sincere.” Julian decided to assist Louie to push his brother further along in his relationship.
Eva’s eyes flickered when she heard that. She was aware of Louie’s feelings for her, but she had no plans to get married right now. After all, marriage was a big decision for a woman, and she couldn’t make it after only one night of sleep.
“Eva, I can see that President Gilmore treats you well,” Jessie chimed in.
However, Eva began teasing Jessie instead. “I can see that Julian treats you well too. Are you two together now?”
This made Jessie embarrassed. “The noble Young Master Julian would not be interested in me!”
“Who else could I be interested in besides you?” Julian snorted softly in response.
Eva immediately laughed at that. “It appears that I have good acumen. I could immediately tell that you two are a couple.”
“No, no. We are not together yet,” Jessie quickly waved her hand in the air and denied it.
Julian held a teacup as he added to Jessie’s words, “True. We’re not a couple now, but we will be in the future.”
Jessie’s face flushed when she heard that. Julian’s proactiveness surprised Louie as well. Louie had thought he was quite successful in courting Eva, but Julian now appeared to be better at courting women than him.
“Julian is a good catch. Don’t pass it up,” Eva advised as she tugged on Jessie’s hand.
Jessie felt amused yet embarrassed at the same time. She was here today to check out Eva’s relationship with Louie, but she was now the one being persuaded to be with Julian!
“Look at what you’re saying, Eva. You sound as if you are my sister-in-law. Why don’t you both be real sisters-in-law?” Julian teased.
Jessie and Eva both looked at each other, stunned.
Only the brothers sitting across from them laughed.
Louie then began asking questions about Julian’s relationship. “When did you start dating Jessie? Why wasn’t I aware of it?”
Meanwhile, Jessie held her teacup in her hand. She, too, wanted to hear Julian say when he became interested in her.
With a smile, Julian responded, “We’ve only known each other for about two months. How would you know about it when you were so preoccupied with your work every day?”
Julian’s words startled Louie a little. True enough, Louie had indeed neglected his brother as he had focused his attention solely on his work.
