I Married An Immortal (The Alchemists)

Chapter 50 - The Art of Doing Nothing

After taking a warm shower, Finland replaced her red dress with one of Jean's oversized shirt and wore it like a dress. It felt very comfortable with her body. They then went down to the cafe on the ground floor of the building and enjoyed breakfast together.

[Good morning, Madam, are we still having the driving lesson later in the afternoon?]

Finland saw an incoming SMS from Jadeith when she just finished her tea. Oh, that's right, she totally forgot that she had promised Jadeith to go for driving lessons today.

[Yes, but pick me up on Robertson Road, not at the office. I'm still at my friend's apartment.]

[Alright, Madam.]

"Miss..." Finland murmured, feeling annoyed. She never managed to correct Jadeith to call her 'Miss'.

"Who was that?" asked Jean.

"No one important." Finland shook her head, "Some people just keep calling me Madam, even though I'm still young and single..."

Jean laughed at that.

After breakfast, they returned to the apartment to watch Netflix. Jean played a new horror movie and said that he was well-acquainted with the film director.

"I actually almost appeared in this movie, you know..." Jean said with a smile, "At that time they needed a cameo as Count Dracula from Transylvania. Unfortunately, my schedule was too busy at the time, so we had to cancel."

"Ah, that's a shame." Finland knew Jean was a talented actor because Jean had been active in their school drama club.

Actually, she would not be surprised if someday Jean would switch direction to acting, especially with this handsome and exotic appearance of his, he would be the dream model of many casting directors.

"I can't imagine you being the evil Count Dracula, Jean. You're too nice. You will fit easily into an angel. The angel figure usually looks rather androgynous, right? You can pull that off really well."

"Hahaha... Finland, you're biassed because you are my best friend," Jean said with a laugh. "Maybe someday if I get the opportunity to try acting, I will do it."

"I will be very proud, I will tell everyone that you are my friend!" Finland said with enthusiasm.

"We will see later." Jean nodded. "But when I'm famous, we won't be able to go bar hopping or play at Universal Studios anymore. Famous people don't have privacy."

Finland hoped that one day Jean could have his dream come true and become more famous than he was now. If he was able to get the opportunity to act in movies and become a big celebrity, even though Finland would not be able to meet him again when she decided to be with Caspar, she would at least still be able to find news about Jean.

They watched a horror film made by Alan Parker, the director who had a close friendship with Jean while eating slices of carrots and purple yams and drinking infused water; this was Jean's typical snack for watching TV from a long time ago.

As a model, he was always very careful with his food intake and Finland had gotten used to watching TV with Jean with this unique snack of his.

"When we watch TV, we are usually not aware of our food intake. We could keep munching and in the end, we snacked too much. It's better to snack on carrots and yam because they are healthy."

Finland remembered what Jean told her 4 years ago when she first came to Jean's apartment to watch a movie with him.

At first, she didn't like it, but after a few times, Finland finally got used to it.
