Ryan originally thought of letting things develop naturally between them in the next few days before he would ask her for an answer after they got back. However, when she said that, it stirred up the unwillingness in his heart.He was unwilling to wait like this, feeling like he would lose her every day. He did not have the patience to wait any longer, and he wanted to hear her say that she loved him.Sometimes, people are very contradictory. Just a while back, he convinced himself that he had already waited for her so long, so what difference would it make if he waited a little longer for her, but he could not wait any longer now.Perhaps love can really make a person indecisive, temperamental, and always worried about losing their loved one. Perhaps love can make a person completely unlike themself.This was why he created this scene where he would fall unconscious. He greeted the person in charge of the water sports in advance and asked them to help him make her reveal her tru
After the passionate lovemaking, the two rested in the room for a long time. Silvia did not know what Ryan did, but she simply fell asleep as she lay there.In the evening, the two had dinner, then Ryan took Silvia to the local bar as she wished. It was a vivid scene with people indulging in the luxurious nightlife. In fact, Silvia hadn’t been to a place like this for many years. She had gone to the bar a few times with Wendy, Ethan, Caleb, and the others when she was studying, but she never came to the bar again after she got married and had a child after graduation.Firstly, as Ryan’s wife, it was not suitable for her to come to such places. Secondly, she had no time to go there because she had a child, and lastly, she was not in the mood to go to bars.Silvia suddenly felt very uncomfortable in this place and wanted to leave immediately.However, she was the one who wanted to come to the bar, yet she wanted to leave after just two minutes. She felt that it was unreasonable for
Silvia squatted there and muttered to herself, “You big liar!“You tricked me into coming on this trip to see if we were really suitable for each other. You said that you’d let me go if we weren't, but you’ve been so accommodating since we came on this trip!”Although Silvia was drunk at the moment, her mind was exceptionally clear. She accused him in an orderly manner. “You’re deliberately treating me so well and going along with whatever I want to make me feel as if I can’t do without you. You’re making me fall deeper and deeper in love with you so that I won’t be able to say goodbye to you when we go back.”At this point, Silvia even slurred a little. Ryan was amused by her speech.She was right. Her analysis was right. This was exactly what he was aiming for.When he persuaded her to come on this trip in the beginning, he deliberately said that he would let her go if they were not suited for each other. This had caused her to let her guard down. He then did his best to treat
He carried her into the house after coaxing her in a low voice. He thought that she was just saying that because she was drunk, and she would fall asleep again. Unexpectedly, after he placed her on the bed, she rolled over and sat up in a flash, then looked at him and asked drunkenly, “Where’s my wine?”Ryan had no choice but to go to the wine cabinet on the first floor to grab a bottle of red wine. They had rented a villa that had everything in it, and they were all high-end luxury goods, so he did not need to worry about having no wine. After opening the bottle of wine, he poured a glass for her. She swallowed it in one go and smacked her lips. “This wine is good.”Satisfied, she threw herself back onto the big bed and fell into a deep sleep. Ryan shook his head helplessly before he went up to help her take off her clothes so that she could sleep more comfortably. Then, he took a shower, wrapped himself in a night robe, and sat on the bed while he enjoyed a glass of wine by h
Silvia grabbed her clothes and went to the bathroom downstairs to wash up so she would not disturb his rest. She then opened the refrigerator to check what was available and started preparing a meal. The advantage of living in a detached villa was that it had its own space, and she could cook in it.After Silvia got up and went downstairs, Ryan opened his eyes slightly on the big bed. He then hugged the quilt and fell asleep again. In fact, he had woken up when she kissed his cheek for the first time, but he pretended to still be asleep. Now it seemed that pretending to be asleep also had its advantages and could lead to several perks—for example, her kissing him on the lips and preparing lunch for him.As they were staying near the sea, the one thing that was not lacking here was seafood. Silvia cooked up a seafood feast. She then woke Ryan up to eat, and the two enjoyed a delicious lunch quietly and leisurely. However, Silvia didn't eat much because she was still feeling a li
Before this, Silvia had always worn long beach dresses. Aside from revealing her shoulders, no other area of her skin was exposed, so Ryan could not accept it and got angry when she suddenly changed into a pair of shorts that would expose her fair and slender legs directly. Silvia thought that it was no big deal. There were many people outside who wore shorts that were shorter than hers, so she did not understand why he was so annoyed.The two initially planned to go to a famous local night market that day, but since there was such a fuss before they went out and Silvia insisted on wearing that pair of shorts out, she thought that Ryan would pull a long face the whole time. However, he was still gentle and considerate toward her after they went out.He only revealed his true colors after they went back at night. It was nighttime when they returned to Detroit. The two did not ask anyone to pick them up and just took a taxi back home at the airport. Ryan’s intention was for the t
However, although it was agreed that they would live separately in their own places, Ryan still followed Silvia back to her place that night. They did not do anything after the long-distance flight, and it was enough for them to hug each other to sleep.Ryan left the next day and returned to the villa at Scholaris Street. Silvia reckoned that he would head to the company after going back to change clothes and rest for a while.Silvia still had one day off, so she called her parents to report that she had returned safely and said that she would go back to pay them a visit next weekend. She then started cleaning the house and unpacking their luggage. That’s right—their luggage. Ryan had deliberately left his suitcase at her place so that he could openly keep some of his clothes at her place. He would not need to worry about not having any clothes to wear if he stayed over in the future. Adding up those things that Ryan had left at her place when he stayed over during his injury s
Ryan glanced at Nora, who had goosebumps all over her body because of his mushy words. “My goodness! You’re so…”She then turned around and rushed into the kitchen as she shouted to Ophelia, who was preparing dinner, “Mom, Mom! Help!”Ophelia did not understand why her daughter was making such a fuss.“What’s wrong?”Nora rubbed the goosebumps all over her arms. “Ryan seemed to have become a completely different person after he went on a trip and came back. He even said that he intentionally pretended to run into Silvia because it’s ‘romantic’. Is this Ryan? Is this really my brother?”Nora’s expression was full of incredulity. After all, her brother had always been arrogant and aloof, especially when he faced Silvia. Nora witnessed what Silvia had been through in the past five years. Besides being cold to Silvia, Ryan was arrogant and withdrawn when facing others. Forget creating a romantic situation such as this—he would not even bother looking at those women who adore
