Mireya sat in the passenger seat. She saw Rodney standing at the same spot and kicking the lamp post out of anger from the rearview mirror.
Mireya could not understand it.
No matter how awful Rodney was in the past, she thought that he still had some good traits.
How did things turn out like this?
” I’m sorry.” Mireya glanced at Ryan while feeling depressed. “If there’s really a need to file for a divorce, I’ll solve the problem myself.”
She did not want Ryan and Rodney’s relationship to turn awkward. She did not want to hold him back from his future either.
Mireya was well aware of Ryan’s capabilities. It was highly possible that he would become Australia’s youngest prime minister in the future.
“It’s okay. You don’t have to take Rodney’s words to heart, ” Ryan said nonchalantly.
“But…”
“Some things aren’t that simple. ” Ryan reminded her. “The situation with Snow Corporation is quite different from my dad’s side. My uncle has three children.”
Mireya said, “But didn’t you say that the subsidiary that Rodney has will be the largest development project in the future?”
After a moment of silence, Ryan glanced at her. ” So… if you happen to meet Jessica, you can act pitiful.”
Mireya understood in an instant. Her heart trembled.
Although she did not want to admit it, Ryan’s thoughts made her have mixed feelings at that moment. Sure enough, no one with such a status could have simple thoughts.
“Of course, if you believe in me, you don’t have to care about the child’s custody rights or anything else, ” Ryan said. “This matter is nothing hard for me.”
“Really?” Mireya bit her lip and looked at him with complicated feelings. “Ryan, why are you helping me out so much? Rodney is the one who’s my— “
Ryan interrupted her. “Actually, anyone who has eyes will be able to see that Rodney is at fault in this matter. My uncle and the rest even conceded to let you take care of Dani. Everyone is afraid that Rodney will let Sarah take care of the child as her stepmother after getting Dani’s custody rights. No one trusts Sarah. Mireya, the Snow family members might have their own thoughts, but we’re sincere about the child. Dani is my niece too. If one step goes wrong, it might ruin the child’s entire life.
“People should do what is right and not what is wrong.”
Mireya wavered.
That was right. No matter what Ryan was scheming, he had his limits too.
“If it weren’t for Dani and me, you and Rodney wouldn’t have to—“
“You’re my family. It’s my duty to protect you. ” Ryan cut her off.
Looking at the young, handsome man who was driving, Mireya was touched. She felt embarrassed too. “But I haven’t done anything. How could you consider me your family?”
Ryan raised his eyebrows. He said playfully, “You got a point there. Should I stop treating you as a family member—“
“Ryan.” Mireya quickly interrupted him with a stern face. “You can’t go back on your word. A person with a status like yours should be a man of his word.”
“Ah, okay. Since you said so, I can only accept my fate.” Ryan sighed, feeling a headache.
Seeing him acting that way, Mireya could not resist pinching him on his arm.
“Ow, it hurts,” Ryan howled.
” I only pinched you lightly.” Mireya was startled by his voice.
“My mouth hurts, Sis, ” Ryan said.
Mireya’s lips curved. “Alright. Since you called me ¡® Sis’, I’ll go through the trouble and buy some medicine for you.”
“Hey, I got hit for your sake, okay?” Ryan put on an innocent expression.
Speaking of that, Mireya started feeling guilty. She could not help but scold Rodney, that lunatic, in her heart again.
“Wait, there’s a pharmacy in front. Stop here.” Mireya quickly said.
Ryan stopped the car by the roadside. Mireya immediately ran down. Within a few minutes, she came out holding a bottle of medication.
Ryan started the car right away. Mireya complained, ” Why are you in such a hurry? You haven’t applied the medication yet.”
“Eldest Young Lady Lynch, didn’t you see there was a ¡®No Stopping’ sign by the roadside?” Ryan said with a resigned tone.
Mireya was stunned. She did not notice that. “Were you fined when I was buying the medicine?”
“Yes.” Ryan nodded.
Mireya gave it some thought and immediately pushed the responsibility away. “You can’t blame it on me. Why didn’t you say anything when you stopped the car?”
“Yes, you’re right.” Ryan nodded his head obediently. “My mom taught me since I was young that I can’t quarrel with women.”
Mireya was satisfied. “Your mom’s education is correct. You’ll get a girlfriend soon with that attitude.”
A hint of amusement flashed across Ryan’s eyes. “I have to drive. Can you help me apply the medication? My mouth hurts.”
Mireya had no choice but to open the bottle of medicine and dip a cotton bud in it. She went near him to apply the medication.
It was her first time looking at Ryan at such a close distance. His eyebrows were sharp, and his nose was tall. There were no freckles or wrinkles on his skin. It was clear. It was a shame there was a wound on his intricate lips.
However, they were still of the opposite genders. Mireya felt embarrassed being so close to Ryan.
She applied the medication to the wound. It looked as if there was lipstick on one side of his lips. It was bright red.
Mireya could not help bursting into laughter.
Ryan glanced at her while he was driving. He saw that her face was about to touch his shoulders. She was also laughing like a sly little fox. Her beautiful face was vibrant.
He was in a daze for a moment. When he came back to his senses, he realized that there was a public bus in front of his car. He did not notice it and almost ran into it.
The car automatically stopped.
However, it was too abrupt. Mireya’s whole body leaned forward and was about to hit the front.
Ryan instinctively reached out his hand to stop her momentum.
When the car stopped, both of them were dumbfounded.
Ryan was dumbfounded after stretching his hands out too hastily. His palm just so happened to touch the right side of her chest. It looked like he was holding her breasts.
When Mireya was breastfeeding last time, he did secretly take a glance. However, it could not compare to the feeling of touching them himself.
They were truly ample.
On the other hand, Mireya was shocked that the medication she held in her hand spilled on Ryan’s arm and dirtied his coat.
“I’m sorry.”
“I’m sorry.”
Both of them spoke at the same time. Ryan quickly withdrew his hands. Mireya also searched for tissue in a hurry to wipe his arm.
However, cars were honking and urging them from behind, so Ryan could only continue driving.
Mireya felt remorseful as she wiped Ryan. “Oh no. This medication is too red. I don’t think it can be washed off.”
Ryan let out a breath of relief. Luckily, she did not notice that he had…
Ahem. It was slightly awkward.
Although Ryan did not deny that he wanted to slowly woo her, Mireya was not divorced yet. She was still her sister-in-law. He was not a person who would act rashly either. After all, he was only trying to let her get used to his presence beside her.
After she got a divorce, he could gradually take action.
