Mommy，We Got a Husband by Doris

Chapter 264 Making Close Friends

Since Rowena's refusal to shoot last time, Richard had been restless, especially as the operations department at Nexus Innovations was infuriated, threatening to inform Alaric. Richard braced for the worst, ready to plead if Alaric replaced the brand ambassador in a fit of anger. Fortunately, the outcome was not as bad as he anticipated.

"It's said that Alaric is ruthless, and the operations department kept creating a tense atmosphere, saying we had angered our sponsor this time." Richard let out a huge sigh of relief. After receiving the response, he immediately went to Rowena's hotel room. "Turns out nothing happened? I've been worried sick these past two days."

Rowena was sitting on the balcony in a wicker chair, silently gazing out the window.

Seeing her like this, Richard approached, squatted down in front of her, took her hand, and coaxed, "Rowena, are you still mad? Don't be angry. It was my fault last time; I was overthinking. But I had no choice; after all, he is your ex-boyfriend, and his identity is sensitive. As your current boyfriend, I have to consider these things. It's all to protect you. From now on, I'll discuss everything with you first, okay?"

Rowena just sighed softly and slowly withdrew her hand from his.

Richard furrowed his brow slightly but continued to coax her, "I really know I was wrong. These past two days, you've been in a bad mood and haven't eaten much. How about I take you out for dinner tonight?"

"No, I don't have much of an appetite." Rowena got up from the wicker chair and slowly walked towards the bedroom. "You go with the agent and the others; I just want to rest."

"Alright, you rest at the hotel. I'll have the waiter bring you dinner tonight. Make sure you eat," Richard said.

Rowena responded faintly, then went into the bedroom and closed the door.

Lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling, she actually had no intention of sleeping.

Arizona was a place of heartbreak for her. One reason she had been developing her career abroad all these years was that she didn't dare to come back.

This time, Alaric's casino was selecting a brand ambassador, and Rowena was very resistant to it. However, her team was actively pursuing the opportunity; she didn't think it was right for her to raise any objections.
