Compared with her fury, Tyrone seemed quite calm as usual. Taking off his suit coat and putting it aside casually,he naturally sat beside the bed and said in a warm voice, "I just came back from the company and got to know that you are here. So I came to see you by the way.Sorry to disturb your sleep."
"..."
Cathy was speechless by his sincere words, with her chest stuffy in a instant.
In fact, Tyrone's attitude towards her has not changed a lot.In the past they are courteous and alienated. But now, no matter how she was vexatious, he showed full patience.
Last time he said he wasn't sure whether he liked her or not, but how did he know that it wasn't because of her children that he changed his attitude?
Women have always been more suspicious than men.He did not know that what he accidentally said would lead to her long-time thinking.
Mixed by a complicated feeling,she moved her lips, lowered her eyes, and said with a cold voice, "You have already seen me,and now don’t you think it’s time to go?"
Tyrone's eyes were dim. Seeing she was sitting on the quilt in her pajamas,he picked up her coat and wrapped it around her.Then he asked in a low voice, "Is there anything you want to say to me? If I don't come to you, are you not going to come to me?
As she felt much warmer, Cathy moved back unnaturally and her voice was cold. "I came to Columbia University for business, not for travel, and I had no time to see you." Besides, do you have time?
It was about three or four o'clock in the morning now. He'd been busy till now. What were the value of his stuff? Wasn’t he not afraid of a sudden death?
The man looked up at her, and the dark eyes did not move for a moment. "How do you know I don't want to see you?" If I say, I've worked till now just because I'm going to go back to Chicago at daybreak?
"..."
Lu Yao was in a trance for a moment, but next moment, she put her face aside and said lightly, "It was because of you yourself that leaded to the result. Does it have anything to do with me? Don’t you know that why did your mother knew I was pregnant?
Hadn’t he been pestering her lately, she wouldn’t be noticed by Marian Johnson?
She had thought she could break all ties with him after divorce, but she didn't realize it was getting more and more confusing.
Tyrone nodded.Without any rebuttal,he said "Sorry, I'll talk with my mother."
"..."
He apologized twice, leaving Cathy utterly speechless and unable to show her temper any more. seeing the weariness hidden in his eyebrows, she felt a little distressed in her heart.
Eyes flashed,she her softened her voice unconsciously. "If you don't rush back to Chicago for the time being, you can go back to rest first."
There was a delight flashed across his eyes.He raised his wrist and looked at his watch. "It's almost daybreak to get back to the apartment. You can go on sleeping. I'll wait outside for a while and then take you to breakfast."
After saying that, he stood up, took his coat and was ready to go out.
Being touching a little,she stopped Tyrone unconsciously, "Tyrone, I don't need you to take me to breakfast, you should go back for rest."
He stayed up till now, with his body estimated to be overloaded. How could he have breakfast with her in such an exhausted status?
Tyrone put on his coat, buttoned with his long fingers and smiled back at her. "It’s your business to decide whether to have breakfast with me.And it's my business whether I want to be with you or not. Besides, I haven't eaten dinner last night, and I have no more power for driving."
Cathy's face changed instantly.She said with her voice rising a few points and full of anger. "You haven't eaten since last night? Tyrone, do you think you are a man of iron?
No wonder his face was so bad ---- he was too busy to eat or sleep, even busier than the President of the State.
Did he always work like that before?
