A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 67

“This has nothing to do with you, tell her to come out. I have already seen her, stop covering for her.”

Wilson is not happy about what he is hearing, his face is dark, “I am sorry, my employees are working right now, they are not allowed to welcome guests during this time.”

Kevin doesn’t even bother Wilson, he looks at the office desk, behind which he knows Sunny is hiding, and says, “The things I just said, I will go and do them, if you are not out by five.”

Sunny is actually afraid that Kevin might want to separate Kelly and Ellison, she has no choice but to come out of her hiding place. Little by little, she moves towards Kevin, till she is in front of him by the time he finishes counting to five.

“Do you need something from me?”

Kevin throws a hatred look at Wilson and says, “Let’s talk outside.”

Sunny has no choice but to follow him, they find a safe place.

When they arrive, Sunny subconsciously keeps some distance to Kevin, “What do you need?”

“Sunny, why does you leave?”

When she hears that question, she wants to laugh.

“Shouldn’t you know my reasons why? Nobody likes to be a substitute.”

“I don’t see you as a substitute!” Kevin wants to explain himself, but he doesn’t know that Sunny wouldn’t even listen to him.

“The picture in your office, and that photograph, tell me, why do our eyes look so similar?”

Kevin doesn’t know how to answer that question, he could only answer slowly, “I really doesn’t take you as a substitute.”

“Kevin, it doesn’t matter, we both know you don’t like me, who you like are Jenna and Bella, and now that Jenna is back, I will need to leave.”

Kevin couldn’t say anything to that, he takes a few steps toward Sunny, and takes her into his arms, before she could even try to escape.

“You are you, you are not like her!”

Kevin says into her ears, which makes Sunny’s ears heat up.

And on top of that, she is having Kevin’s scent in her nose, all this makes it so hard for Sunny to push Kevin away.

“Let me go. We can talk, but don’t get physical.”

But Kevin is acting like a child, he hugs her even tighter instead of letting her go.

“No, I won’t, as soon as I let you go, you will run away and I will never see you again.”

“Kevin, would you please act like a grown up?”

“If the price for being mature is to lose you, then I don’t want to be.” Sunny doesn’t know where Kevin learned to talk like this, it i causing her goose bumps.

“Alright, alright. I cannot believe this. Let me go first, I won’t go anywhere.”

Kevin is holding the most precious in his arms, he has no intention to even listen to her.

The next second, she is even starting to get on his nerves, so Kevin covers her mouth with a kiss.

Kevin...

Sunny grabs his shirt with one hand, but her body loses all energy, and she is sinking down.

Kevin held her waist with one hand, and with the other, he is holding her head, giving deep into the kiss.

Sunny feels that all her strength is being sucked away, this moment she is so dizzy that she doesn’t know what to do no more.

So all she can do is to hold on to Kevin, and let him kiss her. No one would ever know how much she missed him.

When the kiss finishes, Kevin slowly let go of Sunny, holds her face and said, “Don’t run away from me, let us talk, please?”

When they are back to the topic, Sunny’s face hardens again, “Why are you here, really, there is nothing for us to talk about.”

And there is a Bella in between them.

Kevin is looking at this girl in front of him, she was just so gentle to him, but now Sunny is like a different person, for some reason he thinks it is funny.

“Alright, do you want to hear a story?”

Sunny laughs, “Let me hear it first.”

Kevin is remembering his dust covered past.

“A long time ago, me and Bella met in America, at that time she already has a boyfriend, and I is just having a crush on her single sided.”

“What about those photos, and the letters.” Sunny reminds him.

“Listen to me.”

“There is a time when she broke up with her boyfriend, so she came to visit me, those pictures we took when she came, have you not noticed that the hair barely changed?”

Sunny is trying to remember, he is right.

“Continue.”

“I just think I owe her, because during that fire, she saved my life, so I always thought she died because of that. I feels really guilty.”

“Okay, and now?”

“Now she is back, but I feel she is not the same as before anymore, I can’t say what is different about her. You need to know that I is thinking about you every second that I spent with her.”

“Yesterday I saw both of you going to a hotel, I saw you at the door, you went inside together, don’t even try to deny that.”
