With that, she started to feel smug. “I’ve bought it, but it’s in the house. You can come and take it.”
“Alright.” Ryan’s eyes lit up.
Deep down, Mireya was baffled as to why he was so happy over some clothes.
After entering the bungalow, she handed three bags to Rodney. “Try them on. If they don’t fit right, I can exchange them.”
Then, she paused for a moment before explaining, ” They’re not luxury brands. As Cate said, it’s better for you to dress in a low-profile manner considering your identity, so the clothes aren’t expensive. They only cost a few thousand…”
“That’s good enough. I don’t usually wear expensive clothes because of my identity. ” As he spoke, Ryan took out a creamy cashmere coat, a checked shirt of the same style, and a pair of long black trousers.
However, he only tried on the cashmere coat. Since most of his clothes were dark-colored, wearing a bright coat made him appear younger and more refreshing. It would not be an overstatement to say that he was a college student.
Mireya sized him up. Admittedly, his height and physique were perfect. If he were in college, he would surely be a hunk among other students. However, at the thought of his identity, she regretted it a little. “Is the color too bright? I should’ve listened to Cate’s advice and bought the black one…”
“No. This is quite comfortable. Also, it’s boring to wear black all the time.” After Ryan finished speaking, he did not take off the coat. Instead, he picked Dani up and played with her aside.
Mireya felt much better.
After all, him liking the clothes she gifted him meant that she had good taste.
Moreover, he was very respectful of her for not taking the coat off after trying it on.
The next day, Heidi darted a glance at Ryan at the table during breakfast and smiled. “This set of clothes looks pretty good on you. It makes you look gentlemanly. A change of style once in a while is good. Don’t be like your dad, who always dresses as if he’s at work. You’re almost 30, and you still don’t have a girlfriend.”
Feeling speechless, Ryan reminded Heidi, “Mom, I just turned 26 this year, which is far from 30.”
“After you’ve turned 26, you’ll be 27. How far is that?” Heidi said in a huff, “It’s about time you got a girlfriend. You can get married after a few years of being in a relationship.”
“Mom, I have no thought of getting married.” Ryan took a mouthful of milk and then continued, “I have no feelings for the women I’ve met.”
Upon hearing that, everyone at the dining table went quiet and turned their eyes to him.
Mireya was no exception. She even looked at him strangely.
Nathan put down the spoon and said solemnly, ” Perhaps you have no feelings for them because you haven’t found the right person yet.”
“That’s right,” Heidi quickly added. “You best not bring a boyfriend home. I may be open-minded, but not to that extent. I’m still looking forward to having a grandson.”
“Mom, same ¨C sex couples can get married in this day and age, ” Ryan refuted.
“That’s their business.” Heidi pulled a long face.
Ryan shrugged and kept quiet, but a look of disapproval was written all over his face.
The rest of the breakfast went on unpleasantly. At last, Ryan took his leave first.
Heidi watched him leave grimly. “Well, what does this mean? Is he really into men?”
Mireya quickly comforted her, “No, Godmom. Maybe he just hasn’t met the person he likes.”
“I hope so too. ” Heidi frowned. “But the last time he got into a relationship was in college. As far as I know, it’s been four to five years since his last relationship. A lot of wonderful and pretty girls have gone after him, but he’s not interested in any of them. He isn’t close with any women either. I’m just worried that he’ll be influenced by other beliefs.”
With that, she glared at Nathan. ” It’s all your fault. You just had to send him abroad to study when I wanted him to stay here.”
Nathan was ruffled by her words. “Stop overthinking things. That’s impossible. Our son is normal.”
After some thought, he added, “You can choose a few women with excellent family backgrounds and introduce them to him.”
Mireya was speechless. At the end of the day, the two of them were worried that Ryan was gay.
However, it was true that good-looking men were not fond of women these days.
After breakfast, Mireya got ready for work. Suddenly, she received a message on her phone. [Mireya, I’m Sarah. I would like to have a talk with you. Can we meet up?]
Talk?
What was there to talk about?
It was not as if Mireya was unaware of such a hypocrite’s scheme.
If they met up, Sarah would weep coyly halfway through their conversation, as if Mireya had bullied her. Then, the male character would come over, misunderstand Mireya for bullying the hypocrite, and end up enemies with her.
Mireya snorted.
She tossed the phone and could not be bothered about Sarah.
However, she started contemplating it after tossing her phone. She was fine with Rodney misunderstanding her. She did not plan on being with that b*stard anyway.
Perhaps if she beat Sarah up, Rodney would hate her and even divorce her readily.
Hence, Mireya replied to Sarah’s message, telling her to meet at a high-end coffee house.
After that, she called Cate. “I’ve decided to slap Sarah twice when I meet her. Since she has sprained her ankle, I’ll break her leg and remove all her clothes. Hmph! I’m going to show everyone that shameless woman’s— “
“Alright. You can do whatever you want since you don’t care whether Rodney will misunderstand you or not. Sadly, the preschool is having some parent- child activities, so I won’t be able to accompany you.” Cate reminded her, “Be careful.”
“Of course, I will. I even plan to record our conversation. When Rodney and I get a divorce, I’ll expose her true colors to him.”
Cate thought about it for a moment before she said, ” Sarah would probably have thought about this trick. She’s very cautious now, and she might not fall for it.”
Mireya grasped her point. However, she still wanted to give it a shot.
After making a trip to the office, Mireya headed to the coffee house in the afternoon.
When she arrived, Sarah was already in the private room, and standing at the door was a tall and burly bodyguard.
Mireya did not know the bodyguard, but he was probably a Snowden member whom Rodney had assigned to protect Sarah.
Sure enough, the bodyguard blushed as soon as he saw her. “Young Madam…”
Mireya sniggered. “I think you’re addressing the wrong person. Your Young Madam should be the one in the private room…”
“Don’t say that, Young Madam. Young Master and Miss Neeson’s relationship isn’t what you think… ” The bodyguard bit the bullet and explained, “Young Master has only arranged for me to protect Miss Neeson for the time being. In fact, Miss Neeson came here today to talk you out of divorcing Young Master Snow…”
Mireya understood what was going on. It was no wonder this bodyguard would tag along with Sarah. ” So Rodney doesn’t know that the both of you are meeting me today?”
The bodyguard shook his head.
“Aren’t you afraid that Rodney will be unhappy with you allowing her to meet me without his knowledge?” Mireya asked with her brows raised.
“Young Master Snow doesn’t want to divorce you either. If everything can be made clear, he’ll be happy as well,” the bodyguard responded calmly.
Mireya could somewhat grasp the picture. Sarah must have tricked this bodyguard, but that was not surprising. If Young Master Snow had been tricked terribly, let alone his men.
She laughed out loud. Then, she pushed the door and entered the room without bothering to answer him.
In the room, Sarah was dressed in a Chanel white coat with her long, black hair falling over her shoulders. She gave off an elegant aura.
Mireya recognized the Chanel coat as she had previously come across it in a magazine. The coat had just been made available in the local market and was quite costly. It was worth over 100 thousand dollars.
Everything Sarah had now — her meals and her accommodation — were all arranged by Rodney.
It seemed like he was willing to spend so much on her.
As she recalled how touched she previously was to receive a gift from Rodney every morning, Mireya found herself silly and superficial.
The cheapest thing in the world was money-bought items. “I’m sorry, Mireya. My leg is troubling me, so I can’t stand up and welcome you personally.” Sarah pointed at her leg.
Mireya sat directly opposite Sarah. After driving a considerable distance, she happened to feel thirsty, so she poured herself a cup of coffee.
Just as Sarah’s red lips parted slightly, Mireya interrupted her. “If you’re planning to fake sympathy and tell me that you’re not romantically involved with Rodney, you’d better keep your mouth shut. I’m not in the mood to watch you act.”
