True Love Waits

Chapter 1232 You're The Boss

When she heard what Rhea said, Erica just smiled and showed her around the villa.

"Mind if I snap some pics?" Rhea asked for Erica's opinion.

"No problem!" Erica had the power to make minor decisions like that.

Besides, she asked Hyatt to take some photos of her and Rhea in the garden on the top floor of the villa.

Before she uploaded the pics, Rhea asked Erica, "Rika, can I post these online?"

This question made Erica hesitate for a moment. "I'll need to ask Matthew first," she answered. After all, he was a very private person.

"Take your time. I just want to show off. I've been to Mr. Huo's villa! Ha-ha!"

"Cool. Let me ask him first." Erica took out her phone and sent a message to her husband. "We took some photos in the villa. Can we post them online?"

"Mi casa es su casa. You're the boss. You can do what you want as long as you're happy!" Matthew replied.

Seeing the message, Erica smiled sweetly and sent him a kiss emoji.

Then she edited and retouched the photos that Hyatt took for her and Rhea, running them through a filter before uploading them to Weibo. One was a shot of them sitting in the garden, and the other had them sitting on the spiral staircase, with the words, "My best friend came to see me! Current mood: happy!"

Not only that, she took a selfie of herself and sent it to Matthew. "Rhea said I gained weight. Don't feed me so much anymore, okay?"

With a faint smile, Matthew saved the photo and replied, "I like you like this. You're cuddlier that way. It feels good to hold you in my arms."

She knew he wouldn't be there for at least a couple more days. She decided to tease him. Erica typed, "Then come back and hug me. That way you can judge for yourself how much I weigh!"
