Chapter 167 Displaying Affection on the Live Stream
"Where's Katherine? Hurry and bring Katherine with you," Viviana exclaimed with joy.
Giorgio replied honestly, "She stayed up late last night and is still sleeping."
Slept late last night? Those words aroused people's imagination!
[Husband, did you have fun with Katherine last night?]
[Katherine is still sleeping while husband is already awake, husband has so much energy!]
[I also want to sleep late next to my husband!]
[Husband, I'm crying.]
[......]
Giorgio, who had never read or engaged with internet comments before, furrowed his eyebrows as he read them.
Husband? Energy? Fun? Is this how girls express themselves these days?
Just as he was thinking about it, a unique comment caught Giorgio's attention:
[Husband, although I am a man, I am deeply fascinated by you. I love you so much! I'm all in!]
A man! Giorgio, who was drinking water, nearly choked.
Viviana stood nearby, even more excited than the fans.
Ever since yesterday's news broke out; she had been uneasy until she saw the new reports and could finally sleep at ease.
Now hearing Giorgio's words, she had a smile on her face as she said, "Giorgio, the purpose of your livestream is to clarify things, not to hold a personal fan meeting. Hurry upstairs and find Katherine. Grandma will leave first and go home to watch your livestream with your uncle and aunt."
Giorgio wondered how he never knew Grandma had such an interest in trends?
But he knew very well that with Grandma's personality, it must have been someone who spoke in front of her that prompted this setup.
Thinking about the various people watching the livestream on the other side of the screen, he rubbed his temples and went upstairs.
Charlie and Penny had already been taken out by Little Tony. The spacious villa was empty and quiet.
In the bedroom, Anna was still asleep, peacefully and beautifully.
Giorgio approached quietly, sat by the bed, and took out some documents to review.
However, the online fans exploded again!
[Wife is in bed, and husband, you're actually looking at documents!]
[Husband, isn't Katherine beautiful? How can you be indifferent?]
[Husband, you're such a husband!]
Giorgio read the comments and wondered what he was supposed to do. Anna is sleeping, shouldn't it be normal not to disturb her? Why do they make it sound like he's abnormal?
Ignoring the comments, he placed his phone on the nightstand beside the bed and continued to work on the documents.
Because of the backlog from earlier, there were many official matters to attend to. He busily and attentively focused on his work, creating an extremely quiet atmosphere. Time flew by, and two hours slipped by in what felt like a stillness.
The fans, who initially made strong demands, gradually gave up their struggle and eventually became despondent.
[What are we even watching this dog-food-sprinkling for? We shouldn't have had hope for husband.]
[Actually, it's quite attractive to watch husband work in the office too.]
[Doesn't anyone think that husband doesn't want to disturb Katherine? He's gentle, isn't he?]
[The happiest thing in life is probably when I'm sleeping and my husband is working beside me.]
"Make money."]
"Are you sure you're not consoling yourself?"
"Mmm~" Anna, who had been sound asleep, finally turned over after a long time, instinctively raising her arm to hold Giorgio.
That natural movement, intimate and obedient, her serene and delicate sleeping face exuded a sweet teenage scent.
Giorgio's gaze tightened slightly as he looked at the document she was holding down with her hand, a hint of helplessness crossing his brow.
"It's already 11 o'clock, how much longer do you plan on sleeping?" His magnetic and chilly voice was pleasing to the ear.
Anna furrowed her eyebrows. 11 o'clock? Wait, that voice was Giorgio's? She opened her eyes and saw him leaning beside her, and her hand was holding onto him!
She sat up in astonishment, "Why are you still here?"
Her voice only held surprise, without any joy. Since that banquet night, her attitude towards him had always carried an indescribable sense of alienation and resistance.
Giorgio set aside the document, suppressing any emotions, and said, "Grandmother wants us to livestream; go change your clothes first."
As he spoke, he took off his suit jacket and held it in front of her. It not only obscured her figure in just a nightgown, but also hid her astonishingly surprised face.
Livestream? Why did Viviana always find trouble so easily? Wordlessly, she put on his suit jacket and hurriedly left the room.
No one knew how much she resented being with him and playing the role of a couple. Unfortunately, when sharing the same roof, one had no choice but to lower their head.
When Anna appeared in front of the camera again, she was wearing a beautiful outfit, with a bright smile on her lips.
"Hello everyone! I'm sorry for all the recent news that has caused you trouble. I want to tell everyone that there are no issues between Mr. Vittorio and me.
That day at the mall, we weren't arguing, it was part of the scripted scene. I had a script in my hand with a storyline where the male and female leads argue. But I've been living such a happy life lately, I don't know what it's like to argue, so I asked Mr. Vittorio to act out the scene with me. Unfortunately, some people love to spread false rumors.
If you don't believe it, you can check the mall surveillance footage. Twenty minutes after the 'so-called argument,' Mr. Vittorio was still selecting dresses for me, and I was picking ties and belts for Mr. Vittorio and other intimate items. I don't think any couple would still choose clothes for each other after a fight, right? So, the rumors are baseless."
She spoke naturally and confidently, wanting to clear up the gossip and resolve the matter, no longer wanting to be scrutinized by others.
After she finished speaking, the screen was flooded with comments.
"Listen, she doesn't know what it's like to argue? Can a person say such things?"
“Look at my boyfriend next to me playing games, always getting mad at me!”
"Mr. Vittorio even cooperated in acting out the scene, he's really so gentle, isn't he?"
"I'm so jealous!"
Seeing the positive response, Anna looked at Giorgio, "This should clear things up, right? I don't want to livestream; can we turn it off?"
She had just clarified things a moment ago, but now she's saying something like this. What would others think?
Then, in the next second, he heard her speak in a tender and playful tone,
"I don't want others to witness how much you adore me, they might try to take you away."
The implied meaning was clear. In essence, sometimes it’s best to keep the good things hidden away, like a little girl who hides her beloved toys when she reads!
Clearly, Giorgio didn't expect such a twist. His mouth twitched, and it took him a full two seconds before he responded, "Alright, then let's turn it off."
And just like that, the livestream abruptly ended.
Fans: OMG! They are so sweet together!
In reality, as soon as the livestream ended, the atmosphere in the bedroom instantly changed.
Anna's smile immediately fell from her face as she stood up, creating distance between them.
"I'll go check on Katherine and maybe come back later,” she said. Her attitude was polite, distant, completely different from her demeanor during the livestream.
Giorgio looked at her swift change of expression, a hint of coldness flickering across his handsome face. "What are you going to see her for? Wasn't the lesson you learned from the Stefanelli family enough?"
He referred to the previous incident involving Davide's inappropriate behavior. The thought of it made Anna's forehead throb with pain.
Nevertheless, she replies, "I'll go talk to her, wake her up early, so I can be free sooner."
