A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 179

“Kevin, my belly hasn’t popped yet. Are you really going to confine me to bed then?”

Kevin is busy taking a small bowl to put the dumplings out to cool them down. He answers her nonsense without looking back, “Yeah,”

Sunny takes the bowl with a sad face, and takes a bite slowly, “Oh, it has bamboo shoots in it, delicious.”

Hearing her comment, Kevin can’t help but laughs, “Eat more then, since it’s delicious.”

He officially starts to imitate the way she talks.

“Kevin, I want to watch TV, where did you put the remote control?”

Kevin puts down his bowl and helps her find the remote control, Sunny looks at him, and feels some emotions running in her heart.

“Alright, don’t bother. Let’s eat.”

Sunny suddenly feels a little distressed out of no reason. She always feels that Kevin is lowering himself when he’s with her.

“Kevin, I will treat you well.”

Kevin pauses, “Did you do me wrong?”

...

“How can you be so frustrating!”

Sunny strokes her belly and decides to change the topic, “What do you think we should name our child?”

Kevin thinks for a while, “Name it whatever you like.”

“What about Robert Quinn? I am really into Robert Downey recently.”

Kevin gets tense right away, “No, no, you can only like me!”

Sunny pats his head as she hears his words, “Kid, read some books.”

And she yawns, “Kevin, I’m so sleepy…”

Seeing her like this, Kevin doesn’t care about the child’s name anymore. He gently picks her up in his arms, “Do you want to sleep now, or take a shower first?”

Sunny thinks for a while, “I’m so tired today and don’t want to take a bath.”

Kevin nods, “Alright, I’ll take you to the bed. Honey, give me a kiss.”

Sunny stares at him, purses and says, “Honey…”

Kevin is immediately turned on. Only if she were not pregnant, he would throw her on the bed right away and be on top of her.

Sunny sees something familiar in his eyes and she wakes up instantly, “Honey, calm down.”

Kevin stuns for seconds and holds her, smiling like a fool, “Baby, you are so adorable.”

Sunny instinctively feels that it doesn’t seem like a compliment, and she blushes silently.

“Well well, no kidding, sleep now and save some energy to deal with that guy.”

Sunny mumbles, “That guy has a name…”

As she speaks, she doesn’t know why she is so sleepy. It’s still early, but she can barely open her eyes. Kevin puts her on the bed and finds that she is already asleep.

“Alas…”

He kisses her on the forehead tenderly. When he straightens up, he gets serious immediately.

He takes out his phone and makes a call.

“It’s me.”

After the call with the mysterious guy, he lowers his head and gently kisses Sunny’s forehead. Then he gets up and walks away resolutely.

Sunny struggles to open her eyes when she hears the door is closed. But soon enough, she falls asleep again.

While Kevin goes downstairs quickly and sees the guy he just called there.

“I’ve always wanted to talk to you long ago.”

Standing in the cold wind, Kevin silently lights a cigarette. He pulls up the collar of his coat and says to the person in front of him.

“For what?”

“I knew that you have feelings for Butler, and I want to bring you together, will you believe it?”

Standing in front of Kevin, Dean’s secret is suddenly exposed and he can’t hold up and nearly drops the cigarette in his hand.

“Hey, do you couple find it interesting? I just kidnapped you for once and it was not my initial attempt. You’ve knocked me unconscious, isn’t that enough?”

Dean is so anxious that he almost jumps up. Whoever it is, if his deeply hidden secret is exposed again and again by others, he will be anxious like this.

Kevin draws on his cigarette, slowly blows out a smoke ring, and then says to Dean, “Calm down, I know my wife is looking for you. Has anyone seen you when you come out?”

Dean says cautiously, “What do you want to know?”

“I just want to make sure that you did not attract Butler's attention.”

“Huh, I'm too smart for that.”

Kevin seems to be sizing him up. After a long while, he doesn’t know what to say in response, so he can only say numbly, “All right.”

“Well, straight to the point. it's so cold tonight, I can't figure out why I would wait for you here.”
