When did he wake up?
“Room 88,” Loredana replied the receptionist.
“Alright.”
Loredana put the telephone back onto the bedside desk as the call ended.
“When did you wake up?”
Did he see her naked just now?
Cormac smiled and acted blur, “Just now.”
Loredana felt relieved. She wrapped herself in the blanket and asked, “Don’t you want to get up?”
Cormac turned and looked at her. He supported his head with one of his hand and put the other arm on Loredana, “What?”
Loredana turned away, “Nothing.”
She has spoken so clear just now, how could he miss it? He did it on purpose. She knew his trick already.
Loredana didn’t dare to get up before Cormac. All she could do was lay down and wait for clothes to be delivered.
After around half an hour, the doorbell rang.
It was like Loredana found her life-saving straw, “You go open the door.”
Cormac remained laying on the bed. He even moved closer to her and kept the towel under him, “Why didn’t you go?”
“…”
Cormac smiled and said, “I could go.”
Loredana stared at him, waiting for him to complete his sentence.
Cormac moved his head closer to Loredana and looked into her eyes, “If you kiss me. I will go.”
“…”
Cormac smiled, “No? It’s fine. I have nothing to do today. No appointment at all. I could take a rest day.”
“…”
Loredana hadn’t gone back the whole night. She didn’t want to spend any minute here anymore.
After consideration, Loredana slowly said, “You…Close your eyes.”
“Alright.”
Cormac closed his eyes. His eyelashes were long and curl.
Loredana stared at his eyelashes and thought, it looked so much alike as Samuel’s.
Sometimes she would feel so envious.
She didn’t expect Cormac’s eyelashes were this long and curl.
Loredana tried to remain calm, “Don’t open your eyes.”
“Okay.”
Loredana wrapped herself in the blanket and approached Cormac. His skin was so fine that she could even saw the fine hair on his face. Loredana closed her eyes and kissed Cormac lightly on his lip.
“…”
Cormac opened his eyes. The kiss went too fast.
She got away before he could even enjoy the kiss.
“you promised,” Loredana bit her lips. She was too afraid that he would make further requests.
Cormac sighed. When will she kiss him willingly?
He got up and tidied the blanket for Loredana, then walked towards the door.
Abbot was standing in front of the door when it opened. He was holding a bag of clothes, “The reception gave this to me when I pass by the reception counter. I had already paid for them.”
Abbot tried to look into the room as he spoke. He was so curious about the identity of the woman inside the room.
When did Cormac become this unrestrained?
How wild it was last night that the woman would need a whole new set of an outfit?
Cormac was impatient. He frowned and asked coldly, “Have you seen enough?”
Abbot quickly looked away from inside of the room, but he was too curious. So he asked, “Who is it inside?”
“When did you have the right to ask about my life?”
Abbot smiled, “I thought it was Ms. Flores.”
Everyone knew who Cormac likes.
Loredana was the one Cormac was interested in now.
“This is the clothes, and here’s the car key,” Abbot handed everything over to Cormac. Cormac then asked Abbot, “Did you find out what I asked you to find out?”
Cormac was afraid that someone would hurt Loredana. He was worried that the person succeeded.
He didn’t dare to think about what would happen next.
He couldn’t take it.
“Do it as soon as possible. Also, find out what Maria is up to lately.” After he was calm, he thought through about the whole thing. Loredana just got back. She wouldn’t have any enemies.
The only person who wanted to hurt Loredana was Maria.
She better be innocent this time.
Or else he would take revenge for Loredana!
“Alright,” Abbot looked at his watch, “I have an appointment with the people there. It’s at 7.30.”
“You should leave now.”
Cormac closed the door.
He walked to the bed and handed the clothes over to Loredana, along with a car key.
Loredana was stunned. She raised her head and looked at Cormac, “This is…”
“I thought you like it?” Cormac replied calmly.
She wanted to buy the car, but it wasn’t because she liked the car. It is because she needed the car to get around. She never expected that Cormac would remember what Terry casually mentioned.
“I’ll pay you back,” Loredana took the car key.
“Don’t talk about money with me.” Cormac lowered and looked at Loredana, “I don’t need the money.
Well, give me one more kiss as a payment of the car.”
Loredana pushed him away, “Don’t be silly. Go get dressed.”
Cormac took a step back. He reached out his hand and stroked Loredana’ hair. “You’re my wife. Isn’t it a husband’s responsibility to buy his wife a car?”
Loredana almost chocked by her own saliva when she heard the word husband.
She didn’t dare to mention anything about money anymore.
“I’ll go take a shower,” Cormac took a clean shirt out of the wardrobe and headed into the bathroom.
He fell asleep when he hugged Loredana, so he hadn’t shower at all last night. He felt uncomfortable, and he needed a shower now.
He wanted to give some space to Loredana as well.
He knew she wouldn’t be comfortable to get dressed in front of him.
Loredana sat on the bed and was still wrapping herself in the blanket. She looked at the closed bathroom door and held on to the car key in her hand. Although Cormac liked to hug her and all, and she felt disrespected, he never did anything rude to Loredana.
For example, he was feeling the vibe last night, but he never forced her.
He would even remember a casual conversation.
His kiss last night was so tender.
Loredana felt complicated.
She wiped her tears.
On the contrary, Sampson, who she always trusted and respected, acted so shameless to her.
After Loredana got dressed, Cormac had also done tidying up. Both of them walked out of the door together.
The car was parked in the hotel car park area.
Cormac sat in the passenger seat, “This is my first time sitting in your car.”
Loredana looked at him, “Are you sure you don’t want to drive?”
Cormac remained silent. He buckled up the seatbelt as an answer to her question.
Loredana started the engine and drove away.
It was quiet along the way. Both of them wasn’t talking to each other, but instead, they were having different thoughts.
When they arrived at Loredana’ place, she unbuckled and said, “I need to go check on them. Then we’ll go to lunch.”
She hadn’t got back the whole night. She was worried about her children.
She had never stay overnight outside.
“Okay,” Cormac stayed still on the passenger seat.
Cormac watched her walked into the building. He then lay on the seat and looked at the direction of her unit.
Knock knock.
Someone knocked at the car window. Cormac turned around and saw a tiny hand.
He lowered the car window, and he saw the little boy, who stood in front of the car door. The little boy raised his head and asked, “You were with my mom last night?”
Before Cormac answer, Samuel shouted, “Pervert!”
“…”
Samuel got angry every time he saw Cormac.
What he did made Samuel hated him so much?
“I think we need to talk,” Cormac raised his brows. Samuel’s attitude would definitely affect Loredana’
relationship with him.
After all, Loredana cared about Samuel.
“I won’t talk to you. I will help mom to find another guy. A richer and better-looking guy,” Samuel got so angry when he thought about how Cormac left them.
He wanted to bite him so much.
