My Billionaire Husband (Vivian and Morris) novel Chapter 288
"I am."
Mike admitted bluntly, "He is the prince of C Country, how can I, an ordinary person, compete with him? I need time for me to be strong, in that way, I can protect you."
Hearing the doting words, Yara was flushed.
Fascinated by love, she could no longer care about anything else and nodded frantically, "Don't worry, I won't tell Anthony. No ...... I won't tell anyone else lest Anthony knows. I will buy more time to make you strong enough."
Let alone Mike, even her own parents were no match for Anthony.
In this love affair, Mike was passive, while she was the one applying the pressure.
After all, she had Anthony behind her, a man who could call the shots in C Country.
She had duty, obligation, and should go and help to hide it for Mike, so that Anthony would not suspect Mike, much less harm him in private.
"Okay, I trust you."
After a moment of silence, he suddenly asked, "Would you think, if I say this, that I'm not responsible?"
"No."
Yara shook her head with a smile, "You're already great, in my heart, you're a superhero."
Thinking back to that scene last night, she felt that Mike was the hero who came over to save her.
Vivian, on the other hand, was even better.
"Well. We can try to spend some time together. But, if outsiders find out and things reach Antony's ears, I'm afraid that I'll be strangled in the cradle before I'm strong enough."
"I know, I know."
Yara nodded her head, with a frank and lovely face.
There was a knock on the door outside.
The waiter pushed the door in, and Mike immediately withdrew his hand.
The dishes were served one by one and the two of them began to eat.
Mike thoughtfully cut the steak in front of him, forked a piece with his fork and handed it to Yara, "Yara?"
"Yeah?"
When Yara looked up, a piece of steak was right in front of her.
She couldn't help but stare and blushed sheepishly, her eyes swirling with an insatiable smile met Mike's gaze.
She opened her mouth and ate the piece of Wellington steak, instantly feeling it was tender, juicy and delicious.
It was by and large the best Wellington steak she had ever eaten.
The steak, unbeknownst to her, had been spiced up with love.
After all, she did not like the steak medium rare.
The two of them ate and talked, and an hour quickly passed.
Looking at the time on his wristwatch, Mike said to Yara, "Sorry, I can't stay with you for too long. I have a client to see."
"What? There's a client?"
Yara was even more moved by hearing this.
It was really already very nice of Mike to actually take the time to accompany her when she had a client appointment.
"I have just returned to the country not long ago, many things need to be taken care of by me, I am indeed quite busy." Mike stretched his hands, "I hope you can understand."
