They were in the restaurant. Although the whole place had been booked, there were still waiters around.
At that moment, the difference in the strength between a man and a woman was evident.
Mireya could not even make Rodney budge. She even felt Rodney’s temperature rising.
When he was about to lose control, Rodney quickly grabbed the curtain beside them and wrapped it around them to form a confined space.
“Wifey, feel it for yourself. Is this not love?” Rodney’s body was pressed against Mireya’s. She immediately felt the difference in his body.
Mireya did not have much experience with guys. She was flustered. “You… Stay away from me.”
“We already have a child together. Why are you still so embarrassed?” Rodney placed his hands on both sides of her head. His eyes were bloodshot. “
Moreover… Besides you, I’ve never had another woman in my life. Although I pursued and dated Sarah before, I was never… like this in front of her.”
Mireya wanted to ask what he meant by that.
However, looking at his gaze, it was as if she instantly became mute. She did not dare to believe it. “It can’t be.”
“Ah, I’d be a b*stard if I’m lying to you. It was my first time back in the hotel. You stole my virginity when I was in a blur. After that, I never had another woman. ” Rodney then thought of something. He simply leaned on her and did not move. “I don’t care. You have to take responsibility.”
Mireya was dumbfounded. She did not understand how things had developed in this direction. She was clearly furious and about to leave too.
“Oh please, it was my first time too…”
“And I’m willing to be responsible.” Rodney hugged her shamelessly. “So you have to be responsible too, okay? Learn from me. Actually, you think too highly of me. Do you think I’m a father who can sacrifice my lifelong happiness for a child?”
“Although you love Dani, you’re not a mother who can compromise and sacrifice your happiness for the child too, right? Otherwise, you wouldn’t have argued for a divorce before.” Rodney pouted.
Mireya glared at him.
“See? Both of us aren’t that kind of people.” Rodney shrugged his shoulders and laughed. ” So don’t keep saying that I’m making you stay under the pretense of love just to give Dani a perfect family. I’m not that great of a father.”
Mireya let out a hmph. “Then it’s because you want to have s*x with me.”
Rodney raised his eyebrows. “With my status and body, it’s easy for me to sleep with pretty women, but I only want to have sex with you. What does that imply? It means that I sincerely love you. I don’t care about other women.”
Mireya was stunned. She opened her mouth.
Rodney cut her off before she could speak. “Don’t think of me as a casual man either. If I were a casual man, I wouldn’t still have my virginity at such an age. You were the one who benefitted in the end.”
“Didn’t you benefit from it as well?” Mireya muttered.
However, after hearing Rodney’s analysis, she slightly wavered.
It was true that if he did not like her, there was no need for him to lie to her.
Rodney saw that Mireya was not pushing him away anymore. He was delighted. He brazenly went closer to her and pecked her lips several times. ” Besides… Why can’t I love you? You’re pretty, capable, and career-oriented. Although you have a sharp tongue like me sometimes, deep down, you have a good heart. Isn’t it normal to fall in love with you…”
She was enveloped in his breaths.
As Mireya listened to him muttering while their lips were brushing past each other’s, she felt soft and sweet all over.
It seemed that… his words made sense. She was worthy of being loved.
However…
Mireya pushed him away slightly. “My mom always says that I’ m lazy and my house is messy. Do you like that about me too?”
“I’ve known you for more than a day or two. If I disliked those things about you, I would’ve talked to you about it early on.” It was true that Rodney did not mind those things. “Moreover, what’s wrong with liking to eat and being lazy? I have a housekeeper. Why do I need you to do the chores? I’m not looking for a housekeeper to marry anyway. You just have to live a happy life. You can dress up anytime you want to and buy whatever you want…”
Mireya’s heart felt increasingly sweet upon hearing that.
When Patrick and Mrs. Lynch criticized her before, she had thought to herself that she was not marrying to be someone else’s housekeeper.
It was the first time that she realized Rodney was quite satisfactory in that aspect.
However…
Mireya lowered her head and rummaged through Rodney’s sleeves. She even went through his pockets.
“What are you doing?”
“You’re suddenly saying such nice words. I’m checking whether you’re hiding another note, ” Mireya said in a low voice.
“Look for it, then. I most definitely don’t have one.” Rodney let Mireya search all she wanted.
Mireya could not find anything after searching for quite some time.
Rodney smiled. “Mireya, everything I said just now is the truth. Previously when you lived in Brighton Gardens, when did I not cook for you when I visited you? I really don’t mind all those things. I quite like cooking, and I like other people eating the food I make. Besides, you’d finish everything up each time. It made me feel pretty satisfied.”
Mireya raised her head and gazed at him.
When Rodney said those words, his eyes, which were behind his glasses, were bright and happy.
Mireya’s heart suddenly throbbed.
She felt even more touched compared to the way she felt when he drove a sports car earlier today and appeared before her eyes in a handsome outfit.
Actually, she had always remembered the scene of Rodney coming to her place for the first time and cooking for her despite it being a long time ago.
At that time, she had even told Cate that Rodney was a decent guy apart from the fact that he would become an idiot if it had anything to do with Sarah. It would be blissful to be loved by a guy like him, but Sarah did not treasure him.
She did feel the slightest bit of attraction toward him and had some thoughts back then. However, due to the issue regarding Sarah and Thomas that happened afterward, she did not have those thoughts anymore.
“Don’ t look at me like that. Your eyes are so big, you’re like a seductive fairy. It’s tough for me whenever you look at me like that.” Rodney’s heart itched terribly. When he lowered his head and was about to kiss her again, Mireya blocked his lips.
“No. I’m hungry, I want to eat.”
“You’re not leaving anymore?” Rodney was glad. ” Then… I’ll go to the washroom. You can start eating first.”
Mireya glanced downward with her face flushed. Then, she walked away heartlessly.
Only after she returned to her seat did Rodney go to the washroom in discomfort.
By the time the food was served, Rodney was still not back yet. As such, Mireya started eating first, but she ate slowly.
Not long after, Rodney appeared again, well- dressed.
Mireya glanced at him. “That was fast.”
“Ahem… ” Rodney choked on water, and his whole face darkened a little. “Why don’t… we go back and try it out tonight? Actually, I’m not that fast— Ow.”
Before he could finish his sentence, Mireya stepped on him hard.
“In your dreams. ” She smiled at him as she cut the steak.
Rodney felt as if she was cutting his flesh. However, he was not in a rush. He could take it slow. At least he had taken the first step.
After having their Western meal, they went to a cinema nearby.
When they arrived, Rodney diligently bought some snacks, popcorn, and drinks before bringing her inside.
The cinema hall was quite huge. However, there were only two of them when the movie started.
Puzzled by the situation, Mireya asked, “Isn’t this movie pretty popular? Why is there only the both of us here?”
“Oh. It’s because I bought the rest of the movie tickets,” Rodney said nonchalantly.
Mireya glared at him speechlessly.
“They’ll just be third-wheelers, so there’s no need for them to be here,” Rodney explained confidently.
