Forget it. Since Rodney was restraining his temper, she did not have to be so aggressive either.
Actually, Mireya did not feel happy whenever she made herself angry.
When she returned to the banquet hall, Rodney had already prepared himself to be given the cold shoulder by Mireya. Surprisingly, she did not throw a tantrum after seeing him. She only asked, “Have you finished eating?”
“Yes.”
Rodney’s heart was beating like a drum. Could it be that Mireya did not notice he was about to call her stupid just now?
“Since you’re done eating, carry the baby. ” Mireya passed Dani over.
Rodney was stunned as he carried the baby.
After sitting down, Mireya realized that everyone had finished eating. There were two plates in front of her that were filled with the foods she liked to eat. There was a lot of seafood too.
“Mom, did you save these plates of food for me? Thank you. You’re the best.” Mireya smiled sweetly at Mrs. Lynch.
Mrs. Lynch had a weird expression. Wendy covered her mouth and laughed. “It was Rodney who saved the food for you.”
Mireya was dumbfounded and became stiff.
Maybe it was because she did not expect Rodney to know her preferences so well.
“You can tell Rodney that.” Mrs. Lynch smiled.
Everyone looked over with ambiguous gazes. Mireya was embarrassed. She desperately wanted to hide under the table.
Rodney looked at her blushing face. His lips curved slightly. He initially wanted to tease her, but… never mind.
“Quickly eat. The food won’t taste as good when it turns cold.”
Rodney reminded Mireya. Just as Chester told him just now, people like him should talk less and do more.
“Not bad. You’ve changed after becoming a father.” Old Master Snow nodded in satisfaction. “You even know how to take care of others now.”
“Ahem.” Mireya almost choked.
She did not raise her head at all as she had her meal.
After eating, Mireya and a few elders of the Snow family went down in an elevator.
As she exited the elevator, she spotted the elite ladies she saw before waiting for them with their parents.
Mireya frowned. She guessed that those elite ladies were being forced by their parents to apologize.
After all, no one in the Snow family could be offended.
After Mireya waited in the car for a few minutes, Rodney opened the door to the back seat and got in.
“Why were they looking for you just now?” Mireya asked, pretending not to know anything after hesitating for a moment.
“Nothing, they just wanted some help from me but I refused. I’m not close to them, ” Rodney said as he naturally carried Dani over from Mireya’s arms.
Actually, those elite ladies were forced by their parents to apologize to him and Mireya.
However, he did not let them meet Mireya. He also warned them, saying that he did not intend to forgive them and they should not even think about looking for Mireya to beg for mercy. If Mireya knew the truth, the elite ladies would only end up in a worse situation.
He believed that after his warning, those people would not dare to pester Mireya, As for the truth, there was no need for Mireya to know about it. Even if she did, it would only fuel her anger.
After all, that woman cared about her figure more than anybody else.
However, he did not know that a hint of astonishment had flashed across Mireya’s eyes upon hearing his words.
She did not understand why Rodney was not telling her the truth.
Could it be that… he was afraid she would receive a blow and feel uncomfortable?
After that thought flashed across her mind, Mireya’s heart became messier.
The car drove toward the Snow family’s villa. They would be having dinner there as well.
On the way, Rodney kept coaxing Dani to talk.
Mireya lowered her head and looked at her phone for a while. She suddenly said, “When we went on stage to speak, someone took a picture and posted it on the internet. The netizens are saying that… I’m quite fat… Ask the nanny to cook less food in the future. I want to lose weight.”
Rodney’s handsome face darkened. “Why should you lose weight? You’re eating food for two people now. What if you run out of milk after losing weight? Who’ll take responsibility if Dani’s not getting enough nutrition?”
Initially, Mireya was calm. When she heard his words though, she felt as though she was being pricked by needles. “Was I born to be a milk machine? If Dani’s nutrients are insufficient, are you going to send me to jail for not feeding your daughter properly?”
She was exasperated because of him. She initially had some fondness for him, but it was all gone because of those few sentences.
“That’s not what I meant.”
Rodney realized that it seemed he had angered Mireya again.
Even the driver in front was worried about Rodney’s emotional quotient.
The driver said hastily, “Young Madam, you’ve misunderstood Young Master Snow. He means to say that you’re not fat. There’s no need to take the netizens’ comments to heart. Besides, there’s no need to lose weight so hastily too. Although you’re past your postpartum period, your body hasn’t recovered fully yet. You can still take it slow.”
“Yes, that’s what I meant, ” Rodney said quickly.
Mireya let out a hmph and glanced at him. “Do you think I’ll believe that? Rodney Snow, let me tell you this. I’m the child’s mother too. I have my plans for feeding the child. I don’t need you to judge me.”
“What I said is true. You’re not fat…” Rodney muttered in a low voice, “Although you’re a little plump, being a bit chubby is quite cute too…”
¡®Of course, there’s a part that’s particularly nice to touch.’
Rodney added mentally. He did not dare to say it out loud.
Chubby… Quite cute…
Mireya did not think those words would come out of Rodney’s mouth. Her face heated up.
She quickly looked outside the window.
No, she could not be swayed by those sugar-coated words.
“You even said that my waist resembles a pail before this…” Mireya pouted.
“I don’t dislike your figure. I said those words out of anger that time,” Rodney said, “Besides, I’m not that sc*mmy. You gained weight because you gave birth to my child. I know that clearly. Don’t take the netizens’ comments to heart. Those people are just jealous of you. Think about it. You gave birth to a pretty, adorable little princess who’s the center of all attention. How can they not be envious? Even many female guests were envious of you today.
Some people are just sour because they don’t have your life.”
After he spoke, the car went silent for a while.
Mireya gazed at him deeply. She did not expect that there would be a day when such pleasant words would come out of Rodney’s mouth.
She had to admit that his words lightened up her mood.
“Why are you… looking at me like that? I didn’t say anything wrong, right?” Rodney asked nervously.
“No, I think you said it quite well.” Mireya nodded. Rodney’s eyes widened.
Maybe it was because he never expected that Mireya would praise him for speaking well.
The sentence that both of them said the most in the past was, “Can you shut your mouth if you don’ tknow how to talk? I won’t think of you as a mute.”
Rodney suddenly realized that not making Mireya angry was quite an easy task.
Upon arriving at the Snow family’s villa, Mireya went upstairs and took a nap.
When she went downstairs, she was about to look for Dani when she suddenly saw two people talking in the courtyard. One of them had a buff and towering figure. It was her brother, Forrest Lynch. The person standing opposite him was the Snow family’s eldest young lady, Jessica Snow. Jessica wore an orange coat with a ribbon tied in the middle of her waist. She was in high heels that revealed her delicate feet. She exuded the aura of a powerful woman.
