As Mireya tried to come up with her message, she received a new message in their chat: [Are you still angry?]
Haha, so Ryan knew that she was angry.
She deleted the words she had just finished typing. Ryan sent another message: [You didn’t eat much in the morning. The food I ordered should be arriving shortly. Remember to receive it.]
“….”
It turned out that Ryan realized she did not eat much during breakfast.
Mireya’s anger dissipated a little again.
Mireya: [Don’t think that I’ll stop being angry just because you ordered food for me. I’m not a person who can be bribed with some food.]
Ryan: [I know. That’s why I ordered a lot of food.]
Mireya: [?]
Behind her, an employee brought in a few bags all of a sudden. “Miss Lynch, your boyfriend sent you delicious food again. It’s breakfast from Rye Cafe. There’s a lot of it.”
“Wow, surely you can’t finish all of it yourself, right, Miss Lynch? Do you need our help?” A few colleagues came over while chuckling. “We didn’t have much for breakfast either.”
After the bags were opened, Mireya did not know what to say.
There was really a lot. There were spiced baked eggs, croissants, sourdough toast, sandwiches, granola, fruit salad, and pancakes.
“Wow, Miss Lynch. Your boyfriend is so good to you.” A female colleague beside her was certain that Ryan was Mireya’s boyfriend. Although Mireya had tried explaining it to her many times, she did not believe her.
“Yes, he’s so nice. It’s not easy to buy food from Rye Cafe. Their spiced baked eggs are to d*e for.”
“Miss Lynch, you’re so blessed.”
“….”
Although Ryan was not Mireya’s girlfriend, she was still proud after being flattered and envied.
Nevertheless, she indeed had an appetite now after looking at the food. She sent a message to Ryan while having a spiced baked egg: [You bought so much. Are you feeding a pig? You’re trying to fatten me up.]
Ryan: [Because I know you’re not a person who can be bribed with just ¡®some’ good things.]
Mireya: […]
Ryan: [Babe, don’t be angry. I was at fault this morning.]
Mireya blushed. [Who are you calling ¡®babe’? You can call Summer that or say that to the man you were hugging that night.]
Ryan: [Be nice. Can Summer compare to you? That man isn’t even as good as you.]
Mireya: [Ugh, I don’t believe you.]
Ryan: Mireya, I’ll answer your question from this morning. I might be able to rely on my parents and take a shortcut, but I don’t want to do it if it means sacrificing my love life. A lifetime is long. I hope that the person who’ll grow old with me is the person I like the most. Suppose I meet some obstacles in my career, I can work hard for ten years or even 20 years. Although I might not reach the position of other people’s expectations, I won’t be upset. There are many meaningful things in life. I don’t necessarily have to be like my dad. If I were to get married in the future, the person I marry must be someone I love. Do you understand?]
Mireya was stunned.
She understood. She simply did not expect Ryan was a person who placed love before his career.
Such a decision could only be made if a person had someone they loved.
After a long while, Mireya replied: [I know. You like that man a lot. You can risk everything for him.]
Somehow, she was envious of that man for being able to be loved blindly by Ryan.
Ryan: [I’m exasperated. Mireya, are you a pig?]
Mireya: [Ryan, do you have a d***h wish? Who are you scolding? I might just ignore you forever.]
Ryan sent a crying Whatsapp sticker.
Mireya laughed. [Alright. My brother said he’s treating you to a meal tonight to thank you for your help last time. Do you have time?]
Ryan: [Are you going? I definitely have time if you’re going.]
Mireya: [Do you want me there that much?]
Ryan: [You’re so cute. You can lighten up the atmosphere. Your brother is too silent. I’m scared I’ll suffocate to d***h from that meal.]
Mireya burst out in laughter.
That was indeed a possible situation when having a meal with her brother.
“Miss Lynch, your smile is so sensual when you chat with your boyfriend,” Mireya’s colleague said with a mischievous expression.
Sensual…
Mireya felt weird. Her colleague’s eyes were probably faulty.
…..
Forrest picked up and they drove to a five-star hotel restaurant in the evening.
Not long after the siblings entered the private room and sat down, the heavy door was pushed open. Ryan entered first, followed by a woman in a blue woolen overcoat. The woman had a cold, stunning look and an elegant temperament. She held a bag in her hand, and her aura was strong when her gaze swept across the room.
]
Bang.
Mireya almost lost her grip on the cup she was holding. She quickly stood up. “Jessica…”
Forrest’s expression froze.
Jessica’s dark eyes were in a daze.
Ryan grinned as he said, “I had some things to discuss with Jessica here in the evening, so I came with her. We all know each other anyway.”
“Jessica, have a seat.”
Mireya pulled a chair out for Jessica in a hurry.
However, Ryan pulled Jessica away and sat on that chair himself. He said, “Sis, you can sit on the other side. This is the spot where the dishes will be served.”
Mireya knocked herself on the head. How could she have overlooked that?
“Stop hitting yourself. You’ll become stupid if you keep doing that,” Ryan teased while smiling.
“You’re the stupid one.” Mireya glared at him.
Therefore, the seating around the round table changed. Mireya and Jessica sat between Ryan and Forrest.
It seemed like only Ryan and Mireya were talking at the table. Mireya realized something belatedly too. Jessica used to be her brother’s girlfriend in university.
Thus… It was so awkward.
However, it was as if Ryan did not notice any problems. He started ordering food and struck a conversation with Forrest about some topics between men. Then, he even mentioned work and encouraged Jessica to say a few sentences.
Forrest took the initiative and raised his glass when the wine was served. “President Snow, Ryan, this is a toast to you two, especially Ryan. Thank you for the help you gave Lynch Corporation.”
Jessica raised her glass with a calm expression and took two sips.
“Forrest, it’s my pleasure. We’re family.” Ryan raised his glass with a grin.
“I’ll drink some with you all too…”
Just as Mireya wanted to take her glass, Ryan glared at her. “Don’t. Who’ll drive later if you drink?”
