Chapter 61 I Am Her Husband
Coming out of Mashion, Emmett specifically asked Nolan to send him to Savannah’s studio.
Other than Savannah, only he knew the password of the studio’s door.
In fact, he brought this studio at a high price. He had seen Savannah’s award-winning works and the collections she recently designed which were still in progress. He was confident in her talent.
Considering that, other than letting her design and produce the apparel this time, it was highly possible that there would still be other opportunities to let her continue working on fashion designing, he decided to purchase this studio exclusively for her use.
The studio was left by a fashion designer who designed clothing for films and television series. At that juncture, this senior designer happened to be planning to move abroad to stay with his daughter for his retirement. Hence, everything in the studio was ready for use and that would work perfectly for Savannah.
As Emmett stepped into the studio, he glanced around but couldn’t find Savannah. There was only a female model tilting her head and lifting her hair in front of the mirror, posing as she tried the clothes on. That put a frown on Emmett’s face.
“Where is she?”
The model who had been posing turned around. Here comes a male model?
Whoa! It was her first time seeing such a good-looking model.
She didn’t answer Emmett but continue staring at him. This model is not only insanely handsome but also has a uniquely noble temperament. Despite that, his comportment is aloof and distant as though there’s a chilly air wafting from him which keeps everyone at a distance.
Even so, she plucked up her courage and walked over to him. Placing her hand on Emmett’s shoulder, she started, “Hey, handsome, the designer has left possibly because of something urgent.”
Emmett totally ignored the pretty woman in front of him and jerked her hand from his shoulder. He sat directly on Savannah’s desk and saw the messy half-cut fabrics, scissors, needles, and threads scattering all over.
It seems like this model was right. She left in a hurry.
Again, the model walked over to him persistently as she laughed and said, “The designer even told me just now that we’ll only be testing two women’s attires today as the menswear isn’t ready yet. Who knows she’s hired such a charming male model?”
“I’m her husband.” Emmett had to suppress his repulse at the woman to utter the few words.
Surprised, the model instantly became envious of Savannah and replied rather sheepishly, “I’m sorry. Your extremely fine figure and gorgeous face had me thinking that you’re working as a model like me.”
With that, she returned to observing the clothing in front of the mirror. When is this designer coming back? Nothing can beat the awkwardness and boredom of being in the same room with the designer’s husband.
Emmett couldn’t figure out what kind of emergency would prompt Savannah to leave the studio, the model, and her work in such haste either.
“Did she say anything to you when she left?”
Seeing as the aloof gorgeous man had taken the initiative to talk to her, the model answered, “She didn’t say anything but only asked me to put on the second outfit. It was after receiving a call that she went out. Aren’t you her husband? You can call her and ask when she’ll be coming back. I’m okay with it anyway since a fit model bills by the hour. I have nothing to lose but you will incur unnecessary costs…”
“You change back to your own clothes and leave now.” Emmett didn’t really care to pay more model fees but this model was particularly mouthy and noisy.
Nonetheless, the model didn’t see it that way. This handsome is so penny-pinching and even more money-minded than the designer. With a flirtatious smile, she trod over to where Emmett was sitting and deliberately bent down with both her hands on the desk, exposing her undulating cleavage in front of Emmett, and blinked. “Well, then I’ll just change here?”
“Suit yourself. I don’t mind watching a free show.” Emmett was still paying zero attention to her.
The model felt that she had finally seen what a saint look like with her own eyes. She straightened her body and said, “I’m just kidding, handsome.” Then, she turned around and took her own clothes to the changing room. Regardless of how attractive this stunning man looks, I can’t strip myself for nothing. That’ll make me completely worthless.
Emmett rested his chin on his hand and was getting a little worried. He wanted to call Savannah but he didn’t know her number because he had never asked and never thought that he would need it one day.
He made a call to Nolan instead. “Hey, send me the contact number of Savannah.”
Nolan was a little baffled so he asked, “She’s not at the studio?”
“Duh.” Emmett ended the call and waited for Nolan to send him Savannah’s number.
Meanwhile, Nolan was also dumbfounded. Neither had he saved Savannah’s number.
Why would I save Savannah’s number? She’s not close to me. And who would have thought this dude would ask me for his own wife’s number?
Oh please. He had no choice but to quickly asked the private investigator who had probed Savannah for her number. Very soon, the private investigator sent Savannah’s number to him and he quickly forwarded it over to Emmett.
In addition to that, the private investigator told him that Savannah was currently at the Avery residence.
Hence, Nolan forwarded the message to Emmett as well so that he could decide for himself whether to give Savannah a call or go to the Avery residence directly.
Emmett looked at the series of numbers together with the location of Savannah that he received from Nolan after a full ten minutes and was trying to come to a decision.
Never had he felt so irresolute even when he had to deal with some of the biggest projects in the past. Fortunately, Savannah wasn’t going on a date with Cole.
He knew that she didn’t like the Avery family. Other than returning once to the Avery residence after their marriage, she had never mentioned her family or anything about going back to the Avery residence. Hence, since she was rushing back so hurriedly out of the blue, could it be that something serious has happened with the Avery family?
He entered Savannah’s number but only to save it in his contact list. He didn’t press the green calling icon.
Eventually, he decided to go to the Avery residence and wait for her at the entrance. Coming out of the studio, he locked the door properly, got back in the car, and asked Nolan to send him to the Avery residence.
Nolan parked the car by the roadside at the entrance of the Avery residence and waited in the car together with Emmett.
Emmett had been to the Avery residence once and he didn’t feel good about the Averys either. Thus, he didn’t want to see any of the Averys again.
Nolan was really anxious for him because he obviously cared about Savannah but he never showed even a wee bit of it all. What’s the use of him paying such quiet attention to her all the time?
