He raised his eyes coldly and stared at Anthony who was at the opposite table. His tone sounded slightly cold, and he no longer disguised his feelings but refuted directly.
"Are you thinking too highly of yourself? Even if | can't protect Lyra and our children, what makes you think you're more powerful than me?" After all, Anthony's position as the head of Callahan family was taken by Malcolm.
Anthony was still in the process of developing the Callahan Group and still needed the help of Lyra and Malcolm in many areas.
Malcolm's influence in Crana was almost deep-rooted. With a small decision, he could have a huge influence in the country.
Anthony and his power was not comparable to his.
Malcolm had condoned Anthony's sarcastic words, and argued with him each time. However, it was really intolerable this time.
For the sake of Anthony who was now Spencer and Momo's godfather, he reluctantly refrained from not giving him the title of a scheming bastard.
Anthony paled slightly and there was a self-deprecating sarcasm in his eyes, "I was the one who was out of my depth. With Mr.
Malcolm around, Lyra and the two babies must be the happiest.” That sounded great.
Malcolm's irritated look was slightly relieved for a few moments, and the fine pork he had just roasted was not served first to Lyra, but put into Anthony's plate, which was unusual.
"Eat more, but don't say we are not well entertained as a couple and starve you. By the way, | hope the food will plug up your mouth.” With his direct disliking, Anthony was a bit embarrassed but he could do nothing about Malcolm.
Lyra look at the two's tit-for-tat provocation, and stifled a laughter, "Mel personally serves you the roast meat. There are not many people who can have this kind of honor in this country. It is worth a lot of money. Anthony, eat more. His roast meat is really delicious.” Anthony smiled and nodded, saying nothing more.
Lyra averted her gaze and looked at Melissa, picking up the ones which fitted Melissa's favor.
Anthony looked at Lyra who cared more for Melissa than him, silently lowered his head, and tastelessly stuffed the roast meat into his mouth and chewed.
In Frayton.
At dusk, Abigail and Micah walked side by side on the streets after an exquisite French dinner.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSince they got engaged, they worked together during the day and went back to the Matthews House for dinner together in the evening, and then went to their respective rooms after dinner.
The dates were so few that Micah didn't even get to hold hands with her once.
The streets were not crowded with people in the shopping district, and the dim streetlights dragged the two's shadows when they were walking side by side.
But they felt extra warm and cozy.
Micah held back his inner nervousness and reached out to her and asked, "Abigail, tonight is the first and official date. Can | hold your hand?" They were already an unmarried couple and he was still asking this.
But it warmed Abigail's heart and made her feel that Micah really respected any of her wishes.
REST With permission, Micah boldly reached his hand over and held her little hand.
The warm palms were against each other. With their fingers interlocked, it was the standard position between couples.
Just holding hands, the two, who were in a sober state, had their face redden. Like an electric shock, their palms were sensitive, stiff and had nowhere to rest.
The street was silent. The two were walking like this slowly. Every minute that passed seemed to be able to let them remember forever.
They didn't know how long it took before Abigail was the first to break the peace, "The movie is over and we have eaten the dinner. Where are you taking me to?" To a hotel, of course, to spend the night together.
The further they walked, the more nervous Micah got inside, "| picked a really nice hotel today. It's almost here. You should like it." Abigail was silent.
She couldn't agree with his careful selection.
For tonight's movie, which she thought it would be a good choice by Micah, it was unexpectedly a youthful romance movie.
Hmm...
They were adults who had left school and entered the workforce for several years, and it was simply not a good idea to watch this kind of movie when they were dating.
When watching the movie, the whole cinema atmosphere was depressed, and there were many young students.
Although Abigail did not expect him to be amazingly prepared, she said nothing and let him lead the way down the street.
Just walking like this made she feel wonderful. They might keep walking like this and not go through something scare at some hotels.
Thinking about it, the two arrived at the hotel later.
Abigail looked up and instantly felt speechless.
Even though she was prepared, she was still shocked.
Hmm...
"Couples theme hotel?Mr. Micah, are you serious?" Micah seriously turned his head to see her, "We are already an unmarried couple. Isn't it normal to come to this kind of place for a night?" It was not normal! Abigail freaked out.
Although they were engaged, this was their first date. How could he take her to such a hotel on their first date? Was he pretending to be serious, or pretending not to understand? Abigail held back her inner shame and whispered while she blushed, "You... didn't pick a SM-themed king-size room, did you?" "Hmm?" Micah looked at her and was slightly confused, "What do you mean? | just picked a room with an elegant name. | don't know if this is the kind of theme you're talking about. Do you like it? Maybe | can request a room change with the hotel director.” "Don't! | don't like it! That's it. Hurry up and get in." Her cheeks seemed to be burning, and she could only use the back of her hand to cool her face as she shyly took the lead and entered the hotel.
After checking in, Micah took the room card and once again took her hand and entered the elevator with her.
The room number happened to be 721.
When they arrived at the corresponding hotel room, Abigail swallowed nervously and she was curious and afraid of what she would see in the room later.
Squeak- The room card was swiped to the electronic lock with a crisp and ringing sound.
Two seconds later, the door opened.
Micah put in the room card to get the electricity and the whole room was instantly illuminated.
The decor was elegant, with a large round bed in the middle and a circle of red silk and gauze around the bed, adding to the sense of romance.
Still, the large transparent crystal bathtub opposite the bed and the various beautiful and erotic murals on the walls made Abigail's shame skyrocket.
She did not know who designed the transparent bathtub. It was too ...
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe wasn't going to use this stuff anyway.
In her sober state, she was like a young girl in love, looking at anything with her heart racing.
Micah's situation was not much better than hers. It was his first date with a girl, or the first time to plan these.
He was also nervous.
"Abigail... you can take a shower, wait for me. And we'll go to bed early?" "Great." Abigail turned around and walked into the adjacent shower.
However, she soon discovered a serious problem.
The bathroom's door had no lock!!! She couldn't close the door. Whether she went to the toilet or took a shower, it was too insecure! And, it was also transparent.
He could see her from outside.
She felt desperate for a while.
After a moment of agitation, she chose to tell Micah, "Mr. Micah, there is no lock in here. You must not come in midway. Stay honestly by the bed!" No lock? Micah was confused. What about later when he took a shower? Both had no relationship experience and were simple and naive.
"Abigail, don't worry about shower. | won't come over." After receiving his affirmation, the sound of clattering water soon rang out in the bathroom.
Micah's back was stiff as he sat on the edge of the bed. His hands were tense with nowhere to put them.
The last time when he almost had sex with Abigail, it was because he had too much wine and used it to boost his courage.
But this time it was different. He was clear.
Thinking of the dating tips he had looked up online, he pulled a few things out of his suit and put them on the nightstand.
Looking at the box of condom, he was lost in thought, and what he was thinking, even he did not know.
After being tangled for a while, he decided to ask Abigail. At least these things were not suitable to set out. What if it scared Abigail? With that in mind, he reached his hand to the pile of shy items on the nightstand and before he could touch them, Abigail's desperate whimper came from the bathroom.
He was immediately alert, "Abigail, what happened to you? Fell down?" "No..." Abigail was depressed.
This damn hotel, there was no bath towel or bathrobe in the bathroom!
