When Fate Plays Its Hand (Miranda and Hansel) novel Chapter 405

Chapter 0405 

“Yes. You have a bad temper and a bad memory. What’s wrong with that?” Zach said, 

Winter flung a pillow at him. “Just shut up!” 

He tilted his head and skillfully dodged it, which showed that he was well–practiced in this sort of exchange. 

She reached for another pillow, but he said, “Don’t bother. It’s behind me.” Then, he patted his back. 

Winter was dumbfounded. “How did it get over there?” 

Zach sighed and confirmed that she really did have a poor memory. “Miss, you’ve already thrown one pillow at me. This is the second time. Thanks.” 

She paused and said, “Oh.” 

The air turned awkward, and she broke the silence. “What time is it?” 

Zach was momentarily speechless before saying, “It’s 10:30 am.” He sensed her teasing him again. 

He continued, “But hey, don’t worry. It’s still early. I mean, taking a bit of some extra time to get ready to meet your future mother–in–law makes sense, right?” 

Winter was left speechless. “Can you pour me some- 

He quickly interjected, “Water, right?” 

With that, he grabbed a glass from the vanity, which was already filled with water. “Hurry up and drink. Once you’re done, get up, and we’ll leave after you change.” 

Winter reached for the glass but immediately sensed something was off. “Is this warm water?” 

“Yes.” Zach thought all women preferred warm water. 

She frowned and said, “Go get me a glass of ice water instead.” 

“Isn’t it too cold to drink that first thing in the morning? Although he usually had ice water in the mornings, she was different because she was a woman. 

“What’s wrong with being a woman?” Winter rolled her eyes. “Who told you women only drink warm water? That’s ridiculous!” 

“My ex…” Zach’s words trailed off, and he knew he had misspoken. 

“Those ex–girlfriends of yours?” She smirked. 

He fell silent. 

“Idiot!” 

“No… Why do you always have to insult people?” Zach asked. 

“Let me ask you this. Did your exes drink lattes? Did they eat sushi? Did they enjoy cold cocktails?” 

He paused briefly and asked, “Why are you asking about this?”

“Everything I mentioned is either cold or even raw. So, do they like it or not?” 

Zach was stumped. 

Winter stretched lazily and kicked off the covers. “I don’t know when it became a thing that only ‘decent‘ women drink warm water. What’s the big deal if I don’t enjoy it?” 

He replied softly, “So, you’re not decent?”
