Marriage And Love Again

When Suny woke up, the sun was already shining bright, so bright that she could see through two layers of curtains. She had no idea when Austin was up. The alarm had been turned off, and there was no one in the room. She sat up, looking at the silk quilt on her. The memories of last night washed all over her, making her already-dried throat drier.

Then, Austin opened the door and went in with his phone.

She glanced at him and felt her cheeks were blazing. So she hastened to the bathroom. When she went out, the curtains were open, and the room was much brighter.

Suny went to the dresser and saw the book that Austin secretly took from her when he was kissing her last night. Well, he not only put the book on the dresser but also put her on it.

Suny could not help but buried her face into her palms to stop further reliving last night.

She pulled herself together and went downstairs. The breakfast was ready. Seeing Suny was coming down, Austin handed her a glass of lukewarm water.

“Thank you.” Suny took over and sipped.

She woke up thirsty this morning. On a summer night, the AC would be on the whole night, which would make her thirsty the next morning. So the first thing she came downstairs was to have a glass of water. It seemed Austin had kept that in mind.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

Suny had a meeting in the morning. After breakfast, Austin sent her to Phantom first and left for KLOC. Just when Suny finished her one and half an hour meeting, she received a phone call from Robert.

Rosa left her office and closed the door knowingly.

There was only Suny in the room. She glanced in the direction of the door, “Robert?”

“When’s the flight tomorrow?”

“Around four o’clock. It should be arriving at around six.”

“Call me when you arrive,” Robert said.

Suny’s birthday was the day after tomorrow, but she needed to spend some time with Mr. Murphy.

“I will.”

“Okay.”

After she hung up the phone, she got a message from Alicia, “Austin prepared you some surprise last night, didn’t he?”

Suny smiled a bit, “What does this ‘surprise’ mean?”

Our big star seemed to have nothing to do but to send messages. The minute Suny replied she answered immediately, “Something that moves you.”

Suny felt a strong emotion flowing through her heart when she thought of the sketchbook last night, “He did.”

“That contains so much information, wow.”

Suny was amused by her emoji. “Does Ashley know there’s so much dirty thought in your mind?”

Alicia finally shut up when Suny brought up Ashley in their conversation.

Suny put her phone down. She browsed through the materials Rosa brought her and signed them. Since Suny would be absent for the next three days, she had plenty of work to do. It was not until six o’clock that she finished the last document.

Sending the documents to Rosa, she left the office. It was not entirely dark. As the sun was going down, the sky was suffused with a red glow, under which Suny saw Austin instantly. It was the rush hour. He just stood there beside his car. People could not help throwing a glance at his face. He did not seem to be disturbed or uncomfortable. It felt like he has accustomed to those inquiries.

Suny’s lips sealed into a smile and she approached him in her high heels. He was texting someone and was unaware of her presence even when she was in front of him.

Suny lifted one eyebrow, “Can I have your number, sir?”

Austin’s furrowed eyebrows indicated that he was a little discontent with being disturbed, “I’m waiting for my girlfriend.”

When he looked up and found it was Suny, his eyes were sparkling. “I’m sorry, can you repeat one more time?”

Suny hummed. “It’s a now-or-never thing.”

Austin put his phone in his pocket and just grabbed Suny’s wrist, “Can I just take you home?”

“Sir, I have a boyfriend.”

Suny stared at him as if she was laughing, pushing his hand which was on her wrist.

She now understood why Alicia enjoyed acting. It was fun doing it once in a while.

“Your boyfriend’s more handsome than me?”

She could not help laughing, “Yeah.”

Just as she finished talking, Austin scooped her up into a full bridal carry.

There were people who kept coming out of the building.

Suny yelped. “Austin.”

He looked down at her, with a touch of happiness in his dark eyes. “Then I will have no choice but to rob you home.”

He opened the door of his car, put her in it, and fastened the seat belt before he went to the driver’s seat. Looking at the seat belt around her waist, Suny gave a brief smile.

Well, Austin was also a good actor.

They had roast meat for dinner. When they went out of the restaurant, it was around half past seven. The square was rather packed. There were young couples holding hands on their way to the cinema, old couples, and parents and their children.

Suny peered down at their crossed fingers, feeling a jolt of surrealism.

“Austin.” She called his name.

He tilted his head, “Yes?”

She shook her head, smiling, “Nothing.”

She just wanted to check if it was real.

Hearing that, something in his eyes flickered and Austin came to a halt.

Suny lifted her eyebrow, “What’s up?”

He said nothing, but touched her cheek tenderly and left a kiss on her forehead, “It’s real, babe.”

There were people everywhere. It did not occur to Suny that he would kiss her, and definitely not that he could read her mind.

“I know.” She replied, with her flushed face.

“Sir, why don’t you buy this beautiful lady a rose?”

A lovely girl approached them with a basket of roses in one of her hands, and a fresh rose in another hand that was stretching towards Austin.

“How much?”

“Five dollars each, Sir.”

The little girl was quite polite, with a soft voice.

“I want them all.”

“That’ll be a hundred, Sir. I will give you the basket as well.”

“Alright.” Though Austin seemed aloof and unattainable, he treated children well.

The little girl took over the money and handed the basket to Austin. Before she left, she looked at Suny and then at Austin, “I wish your last long and happy, Mr. and Miss.”

Then she danced off to her parents.

“Thank you. We will.” Austin said seriously.

Suny stared at him and paused petrified for a while. When her hand was in his hand again, Austin looked at him, “Time to go home. We should keep the flowers.”

Suny teased him, “Do you know how to keep flowers?”

“No” Austin replied honestly, and added, “Ivan knows.”
