Loredana was very persistent. She threw herself into his embrace, “If you don’t spill now, I’m going to bite you.”
Cormac asked, “Where do you plan to bite me?”
Loredana blinked, and her eyelashes left a huge shade under the glow of the light. She smiled and poked his lips with her finger, “What about here?” Cormac raised his chin, “Then I’ll allow you to bite me there.”
Loredana swooped down and bit him on his lips while hugging his face. She didn’t bite very hard, but there was still a set of jaw imprint left on his lips.
Cormac reached out and touched his face reluctantly, “Your saliva is on my cheeks.”
“This is what you get for not telling me.” Loredana pouted, “I should just bite you to death.”
Cormac wrapped his arms around her waist and smiled nonchalantly, “They said that a woman’s heart is the most venomous.”
“You only know that now? However, it’s too late now, I have successfully pestered you and made sure you cannot get rid of me anymore.” Loredana lied down on his arm and stared at the ceiling, “It’s just a week away, and it will be eight months.”
She then turned and asked, “Are you looking forward to it?”
Cormac nodded and hugged her from the side. He planted a kiss on her forehead, “It’s my child too, of course, I am looking forward to that day. I have missed out on Samuel and Simona, so I won’t miss this one. I won’t let you be alone. I already asked the doctor, and he told me that I can accompany you when you give birth…”
“No.”
Loredana was against this idea.
She didn’t want anyone to be by her side when she gave birth.
The scene when she gave birth was going to be violent, and she didn’t like the idea of Cormac laying eyes on such a scene.
Cormac seemed to know what she meant, so he simply laughed, “You’re going to give birth to my child. No matter how you turn out to be, I will always love you.”
Loredana was still very repulsive, “No can do.”
Furthermore, there would be doctors, nurses and other workers there. Many people would be present, and from her waist down she would be stark naked…
“Tell me truthfully, do you have any women by your side in the past?” Loredana brought up an old topic once again. She pinched his cheeks, “You know a lot, don’t you? Are you feeling guilty for hiding things from me?”
Cormac didn’t say anything.
It seemed that he couldn’t just breeze through this, could he?
He cleared his throat and said, “When I said toasting to the love, I mean drinking alcohol.”
“What kind of drinking do you mean?” Loredana pursued the topic. It must not be just any ordinary drinking, or else, why with the fancy name, ‘toast to your love’?
That name was incredibly suspicious.
Cormac mumbled something, “It’s referring to the cross-cupped beer…”
“Stop lying to me.” Loredana wouldn’t so naively believe that.
Cormac glanced at her through the corners of his eyes, “I haven’t finished yet. You’re interrupting me.”
Loredana shut up and looked at him with the expression of urging him on.
Cormac continued, “Cross-cupped drinking is just the first stage. In the second stage, a couple would drink by kissing, and in the third stage…”
His eyes were directed at Loredana, which made her lurch backwards, “Is there something even more lecherous?”
Cormac nodded solemnly, and his eyes were studying her.
Loredana asked, “What are you looking at?”
Cormac replied, “Nothing.”
He then proceeded to hug her and looked like he wanted to sleep.
Loredana continued asking, “Are you men so thick-faced when nobody is watching?”
Cormac tightened his hug and said, “I am only so thick-faced when I am with you.”
“You know a lot, so who knows, maybe you have said the same thing to many women in the past.” Loredana naturally believed him, but she just wanted to tease him by pretending to be angry. Cormac smiled, “Then I will do it.”
“What do you mean?”
“I mean, being thick-faced in front of other women…”
“How dare you!”
Cormac’s smile deepened as he asked, “What will happen if I do that?”
Loredana answered fiercely, “I will chop you up and feed the dogs!”
Cormac was speechless.
Why did this sound so familiar?
Wasn’t this what she used to say to him in the past?
The two of them continued to banter for a while before going to sleep with Cormac hugging her.
In the thick of sleep, they heard the sound of the phone ringing.
Loredana asked softly, “Isn’t that your phone?”
Cormac fumbled around before finding her phone, and upon looking at the caller, he saw that it was Boyce. He was far more reliable and trustworthy compared to Armand, so he wouldn’t call him at this hour without a good reason. Cormac answered the call.
“Hello.”
“Armand has met with an accident, and it is pretty serious. Surgery is being performed on him now in the hospital, and I am here. I don’t know how to deal with this, what should I do?”
Cormac sat up on his bed and switched on the lamp. He asked again, “What did you say?”
“I said, Armand was in an accident,” Boyce repeated.
Cormac frowned deeply, “How did he get into an accident?”
“Drunk driving.”
Loredana widened her eyes, “Who’s in an accident?”
“Armand. I am going to take a look at things.” Cormac immediately got up and asked about the hospital Boyce was currently at. Then, he hung up and started to find his clothes.
