Cormac was speechless.
It was not like he could foresee the future. If he had known, he would definitely have held a grandiose wedding to marry her.
Just as he wanted to say that he would make it up for her later, Loredana’s phone rang, cutting him off.
As Loredana reached out for her handbag, Cormac grabbed her hand, “Accompany me today. You are not allowed to do anything.”
Loredana was amused by his childishness. She thought to herself, ‘Why is this man acting like a child now?’
So childish that she couldn’t bear to refuse him.
Her phone rang until it stopped. Loredana laughed and said, “Are you satisfied now?”
The haughty man did not speak. He pulled the silky and thin blanket, wrapping their bodies close together. Then, he lifted Loredana’s skirt from the bottom. Loredana bit her lips, her body was slightly tensed, and she slightly panted, “It’s still daytime.”
“Yeah.”
He knew that it was still daytime, but he really missed her. He was only a mortal, a normal person with a normal body.
He grabbed Loredana’s hand, put it on the metal buckle on his belt, “Help me take it off.”
Loredana’s face was burning hot, and her breathing was becoming short. She removed the belt buckle unskillfully. With a “click”, it seemed as if all the heat had reached its peak with the sound.
They were unable to hold themselves back. As the two of them kissed each other passionately, Loredana’s phone rang again. The two of them paused for a moment but chose to ignore it.
However, this time the phone kept on ringing. Unlike before, it did not stop when no one answered it. It kept on ringing as if it will not stop until someone answers the call.
The untimely ringing sound of the phone instantly ruined the ambiguous atmosphere. Cormac lifted the blanket, grabbed her bag, and took out her phone, trying to turn it off. Loredana saw Theresa’s name on the phone screen, so she grabbed her phone, “It must be something urgent since she called like this.”
“You can just call her back later.” Cormac reached his hand over, trying to snatch the phone back. Loredana avoided him, “Don’t be like that.”
She answered the call and put the phone to her ears, “Theresa?”
However, Theresa’s voice didn’t appear from the other side of the phone. Instead, it was a man’s laughter.
Loredana’s got nervous and quickly called out again, “Theresa, is that you?”
“Do you want to see her?” The man said. Loredana felt as if she had heard the voice before, but she couldn’t remember where. She frowned and asked, “Who are you? Why do you have her phone?” “She’s a valuable guest at my place, that’s why her phone is with me.”
Loredana realized something was amiss and looked towards Cormac. From what she said, Cormac also knew something must have happened. He took the phone from her and asked coldly, “Who are you?” Hearing that it was a different people, the man on the other side stopped for a moment, then laughed, “Hey, Mr. Mendelsohn, long time no see. Are you interested in meeting up?”
“What do you want?”
“I’m not going to do anything. I just need an explanation from you. Did I ever offend you? I don’t care what kind of grudge you and Jeffery have, but you used me and cheated me, and I was almost involved in that incident. Don’t you think you should give me an explanation?”
“This is between you and me. If you need an explanation, just deal with me. Isn’t it a bit over to seize someone unrelated?”
“I would like to sit down and have a peaceful chat with Mr. Mendelsohn. But unfortunately, you are too busy. How about this, I’ll wait for you at the usual place, and we can talk over there? Oh right, this woman that I’ve caught, is she important to you? If she’s not important, I think she looks quite pretty…”
Cormac growled furiously, “Declan!”
Declan laughed, “Fine. Then let us meet at the usual place. I’ll be waiting for you.” After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Loredana looked at Cormac nervously, “Who’s Declan? Why did he catch Theresa?”
Cormac briefly told her that it was related to Victoria’s car accident. Loredana instantly understood and said, “Then we need to go back now.”
Cormac replied to her with a short “um”.
Declan was someone with no boundaries, if they really delayed, they don’t know what would he do to Theresa. Not wanting Loredana to be worried, Cormac put her phone in his suit pocket in case Declan calls again later.
He put on his belt, clipped on the belt buckle, and said, “You go and pack up. I’ll go and let Armand know about this.”
Loredana was worried, “Is she going to be alright?”
“For the time being, she will be fine.” Cormac reached out and tidied her collar, smoothing out the folds, “Don’t worry too much.”
Loredana replied to him with an “um”, but deep in her heart, she couldn’t help but worry.
‘But why would he want to catch Theresa?’
Armand sat in the middle of the room, scrolling his phone. When he noticed that someone came in, he raised his head and saw that it was Cormac. He laughed teasingly, “The reunion after a brief parting should be as sweet as a honeymoon, are you already fed up with it?
Cormac ignored his banter and said coldly, “Let’s leave right now.”
After saying that, he went inside to get his daughter. At that moment, Armand was puzzled. He thought that they were going to stay for the night and leave tomorrow? “Now?” Armand thought he heard it wrong.
Cormac turned his head, looked at him, and said in a serious tone, “Yes, now.”
Armand seemed to realize that something must have happened. He turned off his phone and stood up, “I’ll go pack up now.”
“I want to bring Cotton back.” Amanda held the dog’s chain in her hand.
Cormac said, “Okay, bring it with you.”
Kevin also came forward and asked, “Why are you leaving in a hurry? You can rest for the night and leave tomorrow morning.”
“Something is going on.” Cormac briefly explained to him the reason they had to leave right now.
After hearing what Cormac had said, Kevin did not continue asking him to stay and helped them pack up.
They were supposed to stay overnight. Since that they suddenly wanted to leave, it must be something urgent.
Cormac carried his daughter and went to find Andrew. Andrew was not in his bedroom, and Cormac couldn’t find him in the other rooms. In the end, he saw Andrew in Jayden’s room. Jayden was telling Andrew something. Cormac did not know what he was saying, but he didn’t look as negative as before.
Cormac went in and told Jayden that they were leaving.
“Are you going back to City B?” Jayden asked.
Cormac replied yes.
Jayden did not urge him to stay. He also did not say much. He had said what he needed to say, and he believed that both Cormac and Loredana should understand.
Andrew grabbed Jayden’s hand and said, “Grandpa, what if I miss you?”
Jayden stroked his grandson’s head and smiled, “Grandpa will come and visit you.”
“Okay then.” Andrew reluctantly let go of Jayden’s hand.
Cormac held his son’s hand, looked at his father, and said in a low voice, “Take care of yourself. Call me if you need anything.”
