A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 157

"Let's go. I don't think there is something delicious on this floor. Let's go take a look upstairs."

Sunny has to follow him up the elevator. When she reaches the top floor, Kevin finds a hotpot restaurant near the window with satisfaction.

"Darling, shall we pick this one?"

...

Sunny glances at the hotpot restaurant, assuming that this restaurant is somewhat incompatible with today's itinerary.

However, her stomach grumbles violently now. Then, Sunny nods. "Let's choose this one. We can order a two-flavor hot pot."

There aren't many people around. Perhaps because of the high consumption, there are even fewer people here.

Kevin can tell how many waiters it has at a glance.

'It's a suitable place for me to carry out my plan.'

Kevin nods in satisfaction, and then leads Sunny to a private room near the window.

"Except a two-flavor hot pot, honey, what do you want?"

After Sunny orders much meat, she realizes that she forgets vegetables. "We still need some vegetables. Meat is too rich."

"Do you want dessert?"

Sunny shakes her head. "No one comes to the hotpot restaurant for dessert."

Kevin plans to hide the ring in the dessert. Thus, he silently withdraws his hand towards the ring.

"Darling, what are we going to do later?"

Sunny looks at Kevin with anticipation and joy. Her spirits rise, and she wants to go shopping.

"Honey, have you forgotten that Macie is waiting for us at home?"

After hearing this, the expectation in Sunny's eyes disappears. She says dejectedly, "I forgot about Macie. I'm not a good mother."

Hearing this, Kevin can't help but laugh. "Your criteria for being a good mother are so low."

Sunny returns, "Or else?"

...

Kevin smiles and touches Sunny's head. "You're cute."

Then Kevin takes out the phone, which he has switched off. "I'll tell Troy to take care of Macie for the night. We'll have a good date today. I'll keep you company whatever you want to do later."

Sunny feels guilty. However, thinking of the freedom she will obtain, her excitement overshadows her guilt.

"Before dinner is served, you have time to think about what you are going to do today."

Kevin says while beaming at her.

Kevin's look reminds Sunny of what he said on the Ferris wheel. "Wait and see."

Does he mean he will dote on her?

Staring at the handsome face, Sunny falls into a reverie.

However, Kevin looks somewhat unhappy after switching on the phone, for he receives a lot of text messages.

Those text messages are all from Troy.

"Kevin, you even have the face to ask me to look after your child while you hang out. Am I your nanny?"

"Kevin, don't turn off your phone. Explain to me!"

...

Kevin turns to the last one, which says, "For Macie's sake, I will help you. Don't flatter yourself."

Having read it, Kevin can't help but laugh. Then, he answers the message. "We won't come back tonight. Thank you."

Troy, who is humming at home with his legs crossed, immediately jumps up when he receives it. "Kevin, damn you!"

Kevin doesn't feel guilty at all. After sending the text message, he directly turns off the phone. Sunny asks, "Are you done?"

Kevin nods. "Of course. I will never let you down."

Soon, the dishes are served.

At the sight of the meat, Sunny rubs her hands expectantly.

Just as she is about to enjoy it, Kevin stops her. "Take it easy. Go wash your hands first."

...

"Since when do you have a fetish about cleanliness?"

Sunny frowns as Kevin drags her to the bathroom.

After washing her hands, Sunny returns to her seat with some resentment. But she suddenly discovers that there is a small box in front of her.

She is quite familiar with this kind of small velvet box. For some reason, her heartbeat suddenly accelerates.

"Darling, what is this?"

She looks up at Kevin, who pretends to be calm opposite her. However, she is surprised that his ears are a little red.

"Open it. How am I supposed to know it?"

Kevin is still acting stubbornly, so Sunny has to dismantle it herself.

When she finds out that it is a ring, she is somewhat a little excited.

"Kevin, is this for me?"

Kevin stretches out his hand and shows the one in his hand. "What do you think?"
