Ryan was thinking that when Silvia went back to work, she would be as busy as she was in the past six months and have less time with her daughter, so he thought of letting her spend more time with Autumn during the holidays. It did not matter even if he had to go back and forth to pick up and drop off his daughter. However, the little girl shook her head and said casually, “You don’t need to send me back. Mama will be coming to Detroit to work in a few days, so I can see her more often then.”For a moment, Ryan thought he had heard wrongly. It sounded like heavenly music to him.‘She’s coming to work in Detroit?’Ryan gripped the steering wheel tightly with both hands and finally calmed his emotions down before he continued asking his daughter nonchalantly, “Your Mama is coming to work in Detroit?”His daughter was the only informant if he wanted to find out more about Silvia. “Oops!” the little girl exclaimed when he asked her as she realized that she had accidentally revealed
It was the so-called Lover’s Knot. Silvia felt that Ryan was a stubborn person. ‘This bracelet was from so long ago! He did not give it to me at the time, but he brought it here and left it together with the silk scarf that he did not give me the last time.’It seemed as if he was using this method to tell her that he would not give up.Silvia was a little helpless. She put the gifts away and did not put either of them on. Her mother had accepted this gift on her behalf, but that did not mean that she accepted it, so she would just leave them there for the time being.However, since she had received his gift, she would have to buy him a gift in return. Silvia decided to head to the shopping mall after returning to Detroit to buy him a gift in return.Mr. Sage’s company would start work on the seventh day of the New Year, so Silvia returned to Detroit on the sixth day of the New Year. The factory had not started its operations yet, so she did not need to go to the factory to hand
The little one went into the bathroom as soon as she entered the house, and she stood on a small stool to wash her hands. Meanwhile, the man raised his hand to take off his coat in a leisurely manner, as if he had entered his own home. Just as Silvia was about to protest, Ryan inquired in a seemingly puzzled manner, “Why did you come to Detroit? Are you here for Rosaline? Where is she?” Silvia was about to have a stroke. ‘He obviously found out everything from Autumn, but he’s still making such sarcastic remarks to tease me. Does he find this funny?’Furious, she turned around and went to turn off the music on her computer. She had prepared the red wine, food, and music for herself. Now, he had brought their daughter here to disrupt her comfort and ease!“Why did you turn off the music?” The man’s voice suddenly rang in her ears, startling her. Only then did she realize that he had stood behind her at some point. “It sounds pretty good. Don't turn it off.”With that, he st
“This wine is pretty good.”He figured that since he had drunk the wine from her cup, she definitely would pass it to him if she did not want to drink it anymore, so he would end up with a glass of wine. However, if she continued drinking it, he would still be happy as it would be equivalent to her kissing him indirectly.Silvia was enraged by Ryan’s behavior. She stared at the glass of wine in front of her and was silent for a long time. She was so pissed that she pushed the glass of red wine to him, along with the freshly opened bottle of red wine.‘He can drink all he wants. He can drink himself to death, for all I care!’In the end, Silvia really regretted letting Ryan stay and eat because he actually got drunk!After he drank the whole bottle of red wine, he lay on her sofa, refusing to leave.As Silvia shooed him away, he looked at her drunkenly. “How can I drive when I’m so drunk?”Silvia was furious.“Ask your driver to pick you up, then!” Ryan rolled his body over
After Silvia got up and tidied herself up, she opened the bedroom door to go out, only to see Ryan coming out of the kitchen with two plates of spaghetti in his hand.Yes, it was spaghetti. Silvia was not mistaken.She froze on the spot because she could clearly see that they were two plates of spaghetti.Ryan was oblivious to her shocked emotion. He looked at her as he said, “You’re up. Go wash up and have breakfast.”Silvia felt that the scene in front of her was a little bizarre. After staring blankly at Ryan for a few minutes, she rushed into the kitchen immediately. She wanted to see what a mess Ryan had made out of the kitchen she had just cleaned…Silvia had absolutely no memory of Ryan cooking at all. All she could think of was how she had always been the one slaving away in the kitchen while he simply ate and enjoyed the food she had prepared. He had zero cooking skills.Therefore, Silvia was worried that her kitchen would suffer because of the spaghetti he had made. Aft
Silvia felt ripples in her heart as she recalled the scene where the three of them went their separate ways after they left the apartment because it was simply too heartwarming. If they hadn't gotten divorced, how would they be like now?Would they be strangers that treated one another respectfully, or would they slowly make peace and become closer, like how they were now?Silvia didn't let herself dwell on this thought because that would be useless. There are no ifs in life, and there is no redo button. The past is in the past, and we can only focus on creating a happy future.Since this was Silvia’s first day at work, it was surely a busy day for her. The human resources personnel introduced her to her colleagues from each department in the morning, and her seniors explained to her about the company’s business operations in the afternoon. After all, Mr. Sage ran a trading company, and things worked very differently here compared to the factory.At night, Mr. Sage said that he wan
Silvia slept from morning to noon. If it wasn’t for the clock showing the time, she wouldn’t really believe that she had slept for so long. She initially thought of coming in to change her clothes and go out with Ryan to buy a gift for their daughter, but she was really too tired, especially after seeing the big soft bed. So, she thought about lying down to rest her eyes for a while, but she fell asleep instead.When she thought of this, she quickly sat up from the bed. She had made an appointment with Ryan to go and buy a gift for their daughter, but she had slept for so long. She had no idea where he had gone.She looked down at the quilt covering her body. She had fallen asleep almost as soon as her body touched the bed, so she could not have covered the quilt herself. Only Ryan could have done it. The image of Ryan gently covering the quilt over her surfaced in her mind. Stunned for a moment, Silvia shook her head vigorously before shaking those images out of her mind. Her mi
He then asked her, “Are you hungry?”She had slept from morning until the afternoon and hadn’t eaten anything. When he mentioned this, Silvia suddenly felt hungry. Ryan got up and said, “Go and wash up, and we’ll go out for lunch. We’ll pick a gift for Autumn after having lunch.”Silvia had originally wanted to tell him that she could check if there was anything in the refrigerator so she could make something for herself, but he had taken the initiative, so she did not have the slightest bit of room to retort. She washed up, changed her clothes, and tidied herself up before the two of them went out. They went to the restaurant to have lunch first, then headed to the mall together, all while looking like any ordinary couple, even though they were no longer that.As they walked, they discussed what gift to get for their daughter. Ryan said that Autumn had recently fallen in love with picture-illustrated storybooks. It turned out that Silvia wanted to buy some learning tools instea
