Cormac didn’t get angry because he was pushed away, instead he looked at her and asked, “Then I can do that when we are not at home?”
Loredana had no answer.
“You…” She was speechless for a long time and choked out three words, “I hate you.”
Cormac smiled lightly and reached out to touch her red swollen lips, “When do you hate me?”
Loredana lowered her head. How was he so shameless?
What about your image?
And reputation?
Did he not care about his reputation?
Was he a thug?
“I don’t need it.”
Loredana was speechless.
Loredana looked at him flabbergasted. How did he know what was she thinking?
Was he reading her mind?
Cormac cleared his throat and said solemnly, “It’s written so clearly on your face.”
“What?” Loredana asked.
“Smelly thug.”
Loredana looked at him for the first time when he spoke seriously.
She quickly averted his gaze, not daring to look at him and denied, “No.”
Her voice was very low and had no confidence in it.
It was exactly what she just called him in her heart just now.
Just then, the cellphone in Cormac’s pocket rang.
Not even looking to check, Cormac seemed to already know who was calling. He had just saw the video, and didn’t have had the time to call back. This must have made her become impatient and she called Cormac.
Seeing him not answer the call, Loredana asked, “Your phone rang, are you not going to answer it?”
Cormac slowly raised his hand and smoothed out her messed up neckline, “You go out first.”
Loredana nodded, turned around, opened the door and walked out.
His face sank the moment the bathroom door closed behind Loredana. There was no smile on his face, only endless cold.
In Herbert family…
Maria tossed and turned in her bed, unable to fall asleep. She looked at her cellphone for a while but there was no call or any message coming in.
Finally, she couldn’t bear it. She got up holding her phone, thinking about it. She couldn’t stop herself from making a call.
Her hands were trembling with nervousness and excitement as she held the phone.
She had installed a camera in that room that day, even Sampson didn’t know.
Now, this was her only card that she could use to threaten Cormac.
If he cared about Loredana, he was not going to just watch an erotic video of her being stripped circulate the internet.
Cormac looked at his phone, his finger hovering over the screen in conflict. Just as the call was about to disconnect, he picked it up.
“Ah, Cormac!” Maria said in surprise.
She thought Cormac was not going to answer her call.
Cormac did not respond. Her happiness or anger could not influence his mood.
Slowly, Maria calmed down. Holding the quilt in her hand, she clenched and relaxed it a few times before she spoke, “Did you see the video? Brilliant, right?”
Cormac’s eyes were half-closed lazily; the storm in them was silent.
“Let’s meet, I booked a room at the S&H Hotel, room 108. I am waiting. You don’t really need to come, but I promise the video of Loredana will spread everywhere online and become the object of obscenity for every kind of men.”
After saying that, she hung up. Her heart was still beating fast.
She was nervous.
But thinking about meeting Cormac she became very excited.
She got up from her messy big bed and ran to the closet barefoot to find the clothes to wear tonight.
Her closet was full of expensive skirts and dresses; she still couldn’t find anything that would suit this moment; none of them felt pretty enough.
But now it was too late to go shopping. She could only take out the clothes one by one and try them on.
She looked excited, like a young girl in love going to meet the man she had long admired. She wanted to look more beautiful and show the most beautiful appearance of herself in front of him.
To make him amazed and fall in love with herself…
She yearned for Cormac to fall in love with her.
Loredana left the bathroom and was greeted enthusiastically by Coral. Coral’s expressions were clearly stating that she knew what Loredana just did in there.
Loredana lowered her head in embarrassment and said, “I’ll go see Samuel.”
After saying that, she walked towards the room.
She couldn’t stand Coral’s sharp gaze.
“The dinner will be ready soon.” Coral called from behind.
Loredana pretended that she didn’t hear and entered the room.
She only came out at dinner time.
Simona had gotten her “Daddy” and no longer wanted Loredana. At dinner, she took the initiative to run up to Cormac to sit beside him, “I will sit with Daddy.”
Maxina went to pick her up, “You will be sitting with me.”
She was afraid if they stayed there for a longer period of time, Simona would not want to leave
Cormac.
It was not a good thing; after all, Cormac was not her father.
“No, I will sit with my daddy.” Simona said clinging on to Cormac’s arm tightly.
No one could separate her from her Daddy.
“Simona…”
“Let her sit with me.” Cormac said lightly.
Maxina pondered for a moment and then said, “Don’t mind her, she doesn’t understand.”
“I don’t mind.” Cormac let her sit, “You don’t have to be so courteous, just think of this as your home. I really made you unhappy when I divorced Loredana, Right?”
Maxina’s attitude towards him had always been very lukewarm and Cormac felt it.
Since everyone knew, Maxina decided to not hide it anymore, “You and Lola are already divorced.
There is no reason for me to bother you like…”
“About the divorce, I think you have some misunderstanding.” Cormac didn’t rush to explain, he said without any haste, “Me and…”
He looked at Loredana, “Me and Loredana didn’t apply for a divorce certificate, so we are not actually divorced.”
“What?” Maxina looked at her daughter in surprise and asked, “Is this true?”
Loredana nodded honestly.
Maxina found this information really incredible. She had always thought that Cormac and Loredana had nothing to do with each other anymore.
“So, we are still husband and wife by law.” The subtext told Maxina that it was reasonable, reasonable and legal, for Loredana to live there.
“Coral, you manage by yourself tonight. I have somewhere to go.” He wasn’t going to eat dinner at home, but he didn’t want Maxina to feel uncomfortable living there so he had told her about the divorce.
“Are you not going to eat at home?” Loredana asked him but immediately regretted it; it seemed a bit redundant.
