Chapter 60
Carlos coquettish tone was completely different from his previous cold and frightening one. He leaned lightly on Mikayla’s shoulder, and worrying that she would bear too much force, he was careful about his strength against her. feeling tired as he hadn’t slept for more than 36 hours.
He could understand Mikayla’s mood, so he finished his tasks earlier and returned early. However, once he got off the plane, he heard Josiah talk about Mikayla’s situation and rushed there immediately, unable to expect she would get besieged.
Feeling Carlos‘ breath becoming slightly deeper, Mikayla looked indifferently at the scenery along the road outside the window, wondering if she should find an opportunity to tell him later.
Perhaps she was influenced by Carlos drowsiness as her eyelids were getting heavier. She thought. ‘Might as well sleep then! Josiah wouldn’t sell us off anyway
When they arrived at their destination, it was quiet inside the car. Josiah looked over his shoulder, finding the two had fallen asleep. He wondered. ‘Should I wake them up? Property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
While he was pondering speechlessly, it was fortunate that Carlos woke up. Carlos was a light sleeper, so he could feel the car stop. When he budged, Mikayla also woke up.
“Let’s get something to eat first? Carlos uttered, and they then walked into a restaurant while holding hands.
Mikayla found that she didn’t mind Carlos holding her hand like this. When she was dating Jaxon in the past, they would never hold hands on such public occasions. She once saw a young couple holding hands and wondered what that felt like. Now, she finally learned that interlocking fingers felt quite nice.
Just then, a white luxury car came from the other direction, and a man and a woman got out of the vehicle. The woman naturally held the man’s arm, looking very intimate. The man was emotionless, but when he saw the figure in the corner ahead of him, his expression changed.
Lamberd Restaurant, also known as Lover’s Restaurant, was where Mikayla and Jaxon had been before. The best spot to dine was at the hall as a pianist would perform there every day. Not only the mood was nice, but the piano also sounded melodious.
Mikayla and Carlos chose a perfect seat by the window and ordered two medium–rare filet steaks, cream of mushroom soup, foie gras, cheese baked shrimp, crab meat salad, omelette, and mussels,
“I’ll have a mungo pudding with sorbet for dessert. Despite the menu being presented, Carlos didn’t read it and ordered the dishes. “Open the red wine that Kashton stored here. Just tell him my name.”
If he remembered correctly, the last time Kashton was with a beautiful lady, he said he would invite Mikayla here to drink some vintage wine when they had the time. Carlos certainly didn’t mean to eavesdrop.
“Understood, Mr. Ludwig, replied the staff
A few months later, Kashton hugged a curvy girl boastfully and wanted to do some passionate things with her after some drinks, but when he found out that his vintage wine was drunk, he instantly turned furious. Even he himself had always been reluctant to drink it.
With widened eyes, Mikayla was surprised that the dishes were all her favorite. “What else about me that you don’t know?”
“Your affairs are my nothing else to say.
affairs. Of course, I know my own affairs better. Carlos raised his eyebrows. Since he uttered it so naturally. Mikayla had
The meals came in turn, Carlos could instantly behave like a prince wherever he went as if he was born to have the demeanor of a noble. His movements of cutting the steak were smooth, and each movement carried an incomparably noble temperament. Mikayla noticed that many women around began to look at them with admiration and affection. She thought, “What a chick magnet… Wherever he goes, he’ll become the object of others‘ admiration.”
Suddenly, a figure showed up before her. Winona stood at the table with Jaxon as if she had met an old acquaintance and asked enthusiastically. “Mikayla, is he Carlos, the rumored future cousin– in–law? Would you mind us joining your table and having the meal together?”
Even Mikayla had to admire Winona’s attitude change, learning that people truly did have two faces. Some were disgusting, like Winona, whereas some were likable, like Carlos. Tlunking about how to make them leave, she simply couldn’t pretend to be calm and have dinner with those two now. She didn’t want to ruin the meal when she finally got to have a date alone with Carlos.
Carlos cut his steak evenly and gave them to Mikayla. “Mika, cat.”
Then, his tone became low and cold as he answered Winona, “I would mind it very much. This was his date with Mikayla, so he despised the idea of someone coming over to be the third wheel.
3:52 PM 1
Jaxon was standing aside. Just now, he had caught Mikayla’s back figure after getting out of his car, and once he entered the hall, his eyes didn’t stop searching for her. He didn’t expect that she
was dating Carlos, and he should have thought of it carlier when the media he had contacted told him that Carlos showed up when Mikayla was being besieged. However, thinking about it was different from seeing it with his eyes,
Winona didn’t expect Carlos to refuse without even looking at them, doing it before the public without showing any mercy. Yet, he was very caring toward Mikayla, so Winona had no idea what kind of a man he was.
“Jaxon, let’s sit at the next table. To case the embarrassment, Winona chose a seat at the neighboring table.
Carlos moved Mikayla’s plate with her steak before himself and began to cut it. In the end, Mikayla ate up the steak Carlos had cut for her previously, but Carlos didn’t touch his and uttered dotingly, “Take your time to eat. I still have some.
“You think I’m a pig Mikayla complained.
“If you are, I’d like to keep you for rearing if I could. Carlos‘ action of arching his eyebrows looked truly handsome.
They were sitting in the hall with their backs to the adjacent table, so even if their voices were soft, Jaxon and Winona could hear them. Winona also wanted Jaxon to cut the steak for her, but she knew he wouldn’t do that. It was only after she had begged for two days that Jaxon was willing to accompany her to come here.
Meanwhile, Mikayla felt that she was eating the whole time. “Don’t y
you want some?”
Carlos rested his elbow on the table after cutting steaks, watching Mikayla eat. “You look beautiful when you’re eating”
Mikayla almost spat out the soup, but luckily, she still maintained her good manners. If she didn’t know that Carlos had never been in a relationship, she had reason to suspect that he was a Casanova
She found a lame excuse that she needed to go to the restroom. Seeing Mikayla blushing and leaving, Carlos was in a good mood. He shook his glass with the red wine but narrowed his eyes dangerously when he stared at Winona standing up..
