Chapter 519 Sweet Extra - Couple Variety Show 4
Zoey picked up her phone and started yelling in the group chat: [Mr. Harriman, don't mind me! I was saying that Jessica wouldn't randomly pair up with someone, and besides, isn't Amy going to? I remember Amy is your cousin, right!]
Mackenzie: [What's going on? When did Mr. Harriman get added? @Jessica]
Jessica: [Accidentally added him this morning.]
There was about half a minute of silence in the group; then suddenly, the messages started flooding in.
Mackenzie: [Welcome, Mr. Harriman!]
Lynn: [Welcome, Mr. Harriman!]
After a few seconds of delay, Zoey quickly followed suit to be polite: [Welcome, Mr. Harriman, welcome my Jessica's husband!]
Gabriel glanced at the messages but didn't reply. He exited the chat and asked Jessica privately: [Couples reality show?]
Jessica: [Oh, remember when I signed a six-month contract with Marshall in Washington? The variety show we recorded a couple of months ago did well, and Marshall is interested in doing a couple's reality show. They want to invite us to travel to different cities in the country and record our travels together. It's not too complicated, but you might not like it because there will always be cameras filming.]
Jessica had thought about asking Gabriel to join her in a couples reality show. However, considering how busy Gabriel was with work and how he even disliked taking photos, she figured he wouldn't be too keen on being constantly filmed. Even if he agreed for her sake, he probably wouldn't be very enthusiastic. So, she didn't ask him directly and was considering other options. After all, she had already agreed with Marshall and couldn't go back on her word, plus the contract was still in place.
Gabriel was silent for a while. Just when Jessica thought he would refuse, Gabriel suddenly sent a message: [Let me see the proposed guest list.]
Jessica's eyes lit up immediately. She quickly asked Lynn for the project proposal and the proposed guest list and sent them to him.
After sending them, Gabriel probably reviewed the documents and didn't have time to respond. Jessica finished her work and discussed things with the other staff on site.
When she was done, she saw Gabriel had replied: [I can spare half a month after the 20th of this month to join you for the show.]
Jessica forced herself to stay calm and replied: [Okay, thank you, honey.]
She then quickly ran into the "Unemployed and Looking for Work" group chat and yelled: [He agreed to join me for the couples reality show!]
Mackenzie: [Really? Mr. Harriman is that easygoing?]
Lynn: [I have a feeling this show is going to be very popular.]
Zoey: [That's awesome! Mr. Harriman, Mr. Harriman, I love you!]
Jessica: [Isn't it trendy now to pair up good brothers? Looking at the proposed guest list, besides Kevin, there's the model couple from the entertainment industry, Clayton Saunders and Cindy Reynolds, and the newlyweds, Brent Morgan and Melissa Reynolds. Plus, there are other invited couples and young lovers. I wonder which brother my husband will pair up with. Should I start a fan club for the brotherly duo?]
Gabriel: [……]
The group chat went silent again because of his presence.
Jessica had forgotten Gabriel was in the group and almost removed him with a shaky hand.
Just as she was about to remove him, Gabriel spoke again: [Why is it called "Unemployed and Looking for Work"?]
He was asking about the group name.
Seeing Gabriel's question, Mackenzie, Lynn, and Zoey couldn't help but start complaining.
Mackenzie: [Because your wife plans to retire from the industry in the next two years. If she retires, many people in our studio will be out of work!]
Lynn: [The studio has other artists, but who can be as famous as Jessica? I'm looking for work now too.
Zoey: [Exactly, exactly.]
Jessica: [……]
