Chapter 1247 Do You Really Hope I Would Reach Out to You First?
In the evening, Natalie returned to the hotel.
After a busy day, finishing a shoot and a magazine session, she removed her makeup, took a shower, and finally relaxed.
She took out her phone to contact the number Jamie had given her.
She entered the number into her phone but was surprised to find that it was very similar to Adrian's number, which she had saved.
She instinctively dialed it.
Only then did she realize she had called Adrian.
Natalie hurriedly hung up the call.
Before she could catch her breath, her phone rang.
It was Adrian calling back.
Natalie answered.
A cool, casual, and slightly hoarse male voice came through, "What's up?"
"Nothing, I..." Natalie was about to explain that she had dialed the wrong number by mistake.
But then she heard Adrian say, "Finished work?"
"Yes, around 6 PM. I did a magazine shoot until now," Natalie said softly and truthfully.
When they were face-to-face, she could see Adrian's expressions. Even if he was silent, Natalie could vaguely guess what he was thinking based on her understanding of him.
But now, with the distance between them, hearing Adrian's voice, his silence, and his breathing through the phone, Natalie suddenly felt a complex emotion.
"I just took a shower, now I'm reading a script, and I was about to call a friend to discuss something. I accidentally... accidentally..." She bit her lip.
"So, you didn't mean to call me; it was an accident, right?" Adrian's voice was cool and calm, making it hard to tell if he was angry or not.
Natalie coughed, "Yes."
"Who were you trying to call?"
"I... I don't know." Natalie really didn't know the person's name; Jamie's assistant had just given her the number, saying it was "Mr. Callahan."
"Natalie, are you kidding me?" Adrian chuckled on the other end.
The laugh was faint, but Natalie noticed it.
"It's true, I really don't know the person's name. Adrian, are you... upset?"
"I'm your husband. You've been in Suncrest City for a week and haven't called or messaged me once."
Natalie's pupils widened slightly, and her eyelashes trembled.
What did Adrian mean by this?
Did he want her to call him?
"Natalie, if you hadn't dialed the wrong number, were you not planning to contact me today either?"
"So, you really want me to contact you?" Natalie asked in return.
"Yes."
Natalie felt her face flush.
What was going on? Just one call from Adrian made her blush, and her heart was racing.
"I thought calling you would disturb you."
Adrian had changed completely from before. Even his daily habits and tastes had changed.
Facing these unfamiliar changes, Natalie felt a bit lost.
Apart from his face, Adrian was no longer the person she knew.
Adrian wanted to say he would go to Suncrest City tomorrow.
But then he thought, why not just go and surprise Natalie?
After chatting for a bit, they hung up.
Adrian looked at his phone.
At that moment, Violette came in with a smile, bringing a late-night snack.
She waited for Adrian to hang up before walking in, "Mr. Howard, were you talking to Mrs. Howard? Mrs. Howard's filming will take a long time. But her TV shows are really good. She's one of the hottest actresses in the entertainment industry right now."
