After hugging for a while, Waylon reluctantly separated from Diamond and took her handbag from her.
"This way," he gestured for her to board the car, and Diamond didn’t stand on ceremony.
She let him be the gentleman. Open the door for her, and once she was seated, he closed the door before going to the other side to board the car as well.
Once inside, Waylon helped with the seatbelt before helping himself.
When all that was done, the car started moving, and the two were ready to go.
On the road, Diamond was busy asking Waylon all kinds of questions. After all, they haven’t met in person in a long time. Diamond was busy with work, and Waylon with school. He was in his final year, and with the semester nearly at its end, he had some school work to deal with.
"When you close, what are you planning to do during the vacation?" Diamond asked curiously.
She planned to visit her parents with Ruby, and when they return, she would continue with her work while waiting for the July auction where she had to meet with the mission target for the dagger of suffering.
Talking about the dagger of suffering, Diamond remembered that she still hadn’t checked the mission target. She would have to set aside some time and check what the other party was doing. After all, she didn’t want to see the other dying. Her mission would be jeopardized.
Waylon was driving smoothly on the tarred road. Although there was traffic, it wasn’t that much, and there weren’t many problems.
"Um .... I want to focus more on the restaurant. I have been slacking off this semester, and that needs to change. But apart from that, I still need to take you on several dates. I can’t have you forget about me easily," he solemnly said, and Diamond chuckled after hearing the last part.
"How can I forget you?" she teasingly asked, wondering what Waylon was thinking in his mind to have such thoughts.
Of course, she was completely unaware of how Waylon’s train of thought worked.
Knowing that he was a trial boyfriend and Diamond already had a number one boyfriend. He was very anxious.
There were so many men out there who wanted to be with her. If he slacks off, she might be stolen by others. He was worried and in a hurry.
"Hehe, then I guess, I will work hard to make sure that you don’t forget about me, then!" he answered playfully, the atmosphere quite warm.
Diamond didn’t take that to heart at all. After all, she was someone who gave her all when it came to relationships. She might not be able to see her boyfriends daily like others, but she would always do her best.
After an hour or so, they reached the villa complex.
When they got there, Waylon took Diamond into the villa and told her to make herself comfortable.
"Babe, I need to start cooking. Do whatever you want!" he said to her, rolling his sleeves as he walked toward the kitchen.
Diamond nodded at him, her gaze scanning all over the place.
The last time she was here, she didn’t take a closer look. After all, her mind was occupied with other things, and she left very satisfied as well.
So, while Waylon was preparing dinner, Diamond checked the place as if she were the female owner. After not finding any traces of other females, she happily returned to the kitchen, where she sat by the island watching him cook.
"Do you want me to help you?" she asked lazily.
It’s been a while since she cooked.
Waylon turned his head to look at her and shook his head. "Another time. Tonight, let me spoil you!"
Since he insisted, Diamond didn’t bother with him anymore but watched with interest as he cooked. A man who cooks was very sexy, and she didn’t mind watching all that the whole day.
The dishes were soon cooked, and the house was filled with the fragrant aroma.
Diamond and Waylon both went to the dining room, where they set the table. With several dishes on the table, Diamond’s eyes were sparkling as she couldn’t wait to enjoy herself.
Dinner was sumptuous, and Diamond ate until her belly was full and round.
Satisfied with the food, she thanked Waylon with a smooch on his face before suggesting that they go on a walk.
"That reminds me. Let’s go out for a drive first. I have a few places I want to take you to," Waylon said to her after hearing her suggestion.
When it was around 11 pm, the couple boarded the car, and this time, they were heading back to Cherry Court.
Waylon didn’t plan to keep Diamond at his place from the beginning. As much as he wanted to devour Diamond. He understood that being hasty might make him lose everything, and he didn’t want that.
He didn’t want her to think that he was with her for the sex. He wanted to spend as much time as he could with her, even without doing anything productive. It was all about the little and big things combined.
He was happy that she had time to spare to be with him.
Besides, he was more at ease knowing that she didn’t mind spending time with him like that. If she were only with him because of the sex, then he would be panicking. He wanted her everything, and he was willing to be a monk if that’s what it would take to get her.
The two arrived at Diamond’s place after 1 am. After all, they had gone a bit far just to bring fun to her.
When they got to her place, before alighting from the car, the couple shared a few kisses and hugs.
"I will miss you!"
"I know, but don’t worry, I will see you pretty soon. If I can’t see you in private, then how about the banquet? You are attending it, right?"
Waylon nodded his head after a moment, recalling that his family was indeed invited to such an event.
Diamond beamed when she saw that.
"Then be a good boy for me! In the future, there will be more time to see each other. I will make sure of it!" she said solemnly.
Diamond knew that she worked too much and put a lot of effort into making her fans happy. She had also been putting effort into finding time for herself, though it wasn’t much, but she was making progress.
Now that she was with a boyfriend and a prospective boyfriend number two, she needed to set even more time for herself. It wasn’t going to be easy, but she was going to try her best.
One way or the other, she was going to make it work.
After making promises, the couple finally separated.
