Ryan caressed her small face. His gaze was burning. “Let them be suspicious. We’re officially dating anyway.”
“Still, we can’t do this. I’m embarrassed.”
Mireya bit her lip shyly. Although the lighting was dim and her blushing face could not be seen clearly, her bright, seductive eyes were enough to tickle the hearts of men.
Ryan pecked her mouth hard again. “I’ll get some rest. Stay beside me.”
“…Okay.”
Mireya agreed after a moment of hesitation.
Ryan was indeed exhausted. After laying on the bed, he felt extremely comfortable.
He fell asleep within two minutes while holding Mireya with his hand.
After Ryan fell into a deep sleep, Mireya tiptoed out of the guest room.
Forrest and Mr. Lynch gave her a profound glance. Her face blushed instinctively. She explained, “I came out after waiting for him to fall asleep.”
“Mm.”
Mr. Lynch simply nodded and did not say anything.
On the other hand, Forrest suddenly spoke, “I have no opinions about you two dating each other, but you should be careful. Don’t get pregnant before getting married again. You should’ve learned your lesson after having gone through it once.”
“…Brother, I know that myself even without you telling me.”
Mireya rolled her eyes at Forrest out of anger and embarrassment. After that, she went to the playroom to play with Dani.
An hour later.
Ryan woke up just in time for dinner.
After sleeping, he felt much better.
Dani was especially excited when she saw him and kept wanting him to carry her.
Upon seeing that, Ryan quickly took a banana and fed Dani in small bites with a spoon.
“Pass her to the nanny and eat first,” Mrs. Lynch said.
“It’s okay. Dani hasn’t seen me in a long time. She might cry if I let her go.”
Ryan was pretty content with the situation. Besides, he found it exceptionally fulfilling to see the cute baby eating the food he fed her.
After the meal, Ryan brought Dani to the playroom to play. Dani liked to crawl. She kept crawling all over him.
Mireya brought a plate of fruits in and saw Dani sitting on Ryan’s stomach. He held both of her tiny hands and coaxed softly, “Good girl. Call me ¡®Dad’.”
“Ah ah…” Dani started babbling in her babyish, slurred voice.
“Dad.”
“Wawa… Wawa.”
Even after Ryan said that word countless times, Dani did not say the word he wanted to hear most. When he raised his head, he saw Mireya standing at the door.
Even though he was usually shameless, his handsome face still heated up.
“Dad?” Mireya walked in with a vague smile. She let out a tsk and said, “I don’t think we’re married yet.”
Ryan coughed out of embarrassment. “If you’re willing to get married, I can do it anytime.”
“In your dreams.” Mireya harrumphed and rolled her eyes at him. “I finally managed to get a divorce. I don’t want to step into another grave so quickly.”
“Babe, it won’t be a grave with me. It’ll be a villa.” Ryan sat up and dragged Mireya into his embrace.
He hugged Mireya on the left side of his chest while carrying Dani on the other side.
At that moment, he had a sense of indescribable satisfaction.
Mireya leaned on his chest and did not say a word.
She loved Ryan a lot, but her first marriage had left too big an impact on her. She did not want to get married again too quickly.
She and Ryan were in love, but marriage was not that simple. They still had many areas that they had to work on.
“I’ll wait for you regardless.” Ryan lowered his head and kissed the top of her hair. “Don’t doubt me. I’ve never thought of breaking up with you from the day we started dating. I’ve treated Dani as my biological daughter since a long time ago. Besides, Dani will truly understand the meaning of ¡®Dad’ as she slowly grows up.”
Mireya was taken aback. She raised her head and gazed at his dark, clear eyes. “What do you mean?”
“In the future, I want to teach Dani that I’m her dad,” Ryan said seriously. “Mireya, from today onward, let’s just date for two years more at most. By that time, Dani will have to go to preschool. Do you get what I mean? She needs a father. Two years are more than enough for you to properly consider whether I can be a qualified husband. It’s also enough time for you to have fun.”
“Two years…”
Mireya muttered. At that time, she would be 28. It was not too early nor late.
“Darling, it’s considered late. You won’t look pretty when you become the bride if you wait for too long.” Ryan squeezed her hand softly. “Since you’ve never been a bride, don’t you want to try being one? Look, even Shaun and Cate are planning to hold a wedding.”
Mireya was stunned.
That was true. She was once married, yet she had never been a bride.
At this thought, she was slightly swayed.
“But… I might want to marry you in less than two years.” Mireya blinked and draped her arms on his shoulders.
“That’s wonderful.” Ryan said with a smirk, “Come on. I’m waiting for you to propose to me.”
“…”
Mireya was dazed. When she came to her senses, she was so angry that she punched his chest. “Ryan, I’ll refuse to marry you if you’re like this!”
He had gone too far. How shameless of him to ask a woman to propose to him.
“Hey. Don’t learn from your mom, Dani. She’s too fierce.” Ryan promptly hugged his two darlings and soothed them.
“Fine. It turns out that you think I’m fierce. I’m going to ignore you.”
With that, Mireya feigned annoyance and was about to leave.
Ryan grabbed her wrist and pulled her into his arms. He kissed her on the lips. “Although you’re fierce, I still love you a lot.”
At the sight of the scene, Dani leaned forward to kiss her mother.
“Don’t do this in front of the child.” Mireya glared at Ryan embarrassedly.
“Dani should get used to it. I can’t help it since I, her father, love her mother so much,” Ryan cooed while hugging Mireya.
At that moment, Mireya felt as though her heart was doused in honey. “Will your uncle and his family approve of you being Dani’s father?”
“Once I marry you, they’ll have no choice but to approve of it,” Ryan said with a grin. “What’s more, I’m their biological nephew. After we get married in the future, Dani will have to call me ¡®Dad’ anyway.”
“…”
Mireya did not say a word. She felt that it would not be easy to settle this issue. After all, Jason had given Dani quite a lot of Snow Corporation’s shares.
Upon noticing that she had gone silent, Ryan leaned forward and said in her ear with a low voice, “In the past, we didn’t mind Dani interacting with Rodney. But … after this incident, we know that Rodney has bad intentions. This time, he nearly did something that put the country at stake. Dani will definitely be upset about it when she grows up and matures in the future, so don’t ever mention in front of her that Rodney is her biological father.”
Mireya’s lips parted a little.
Her head seemed to have exploded.
