Chapter 597
Taya stood at the entrance of the villa for a while before Griffon’ car pulled up in front of her.
He rolled down the car window. Sunlight poured into the car,
revealing his well-defined face with a pair of black sunglasses resting on the bridge of his nose. Taya couldn’t see the look in his eyes as he tilted his head to look at her.
He pushed the door open and got out of the car. His tall and stalwart figure dwarfed Taya.
Through the sunglasses, he lowered his gaze and carefully looked
at the woman in front of him, who was the embodiment of pure
desire.
“Taya, today, you….”
He bent down and tilted his head slightly, leaning close to her ear. In a charming voice, he muttered, “You look beautiful.”
Taya raised her hand to cover her ears, blocking his scorching
breath with the back of her hand.
“You… Can you stop getting so close every time you speak? It’s not like I can’t hear you clearly…” she grumbled.
His thin, pursed lips
He affectionately rubbed her round head as he commented, “Your hair has grown longer.”
It wouldn’t be long until he could see her with waist-length hair.
Hopefully, he would live long enough to see it.
He grabbed Taya’s hand, who didn’t say a word, and opened the passenger door to let her get in the car. He took out a bouquet of flowers from the trunk and handed it to her.
When Taya saw the beautiful roses, she raised her eyes and looked at Griffon. “Didn’t you give these to me yesterday?”
The man handed the flowers to her, and whispered, “From now on, I’ll give you a bouquet every day.”
As long as he was still alive, he would give her a bouquet every day until the end of time.
After quietly observing for a few seconds, Taya reached out to
receive the flowers from him.
She held the flowers in her arms and side-eyed the man wearing
sunglasses, who had yet to take them off. “What’s wrong with
your eyes?”
It wasn’t summer, so the sun wasn’t that strong. There was no
need to wear sunglasses to block the glare when driving, but he
still did, which was rather strange..
Hearing this, Griffon said calmly, “I didn’t sleep well, so my eyes are a little red. I thought you might get a shock if you saw it.”
Taya’s hand, which was holding his, tightened slightly. However, she still didn’t have the courage to take off his sunglasses.
Griffon took out an insulated container from the glove box and
handed it to Taya. “Here’s breakfast.”
Taya glanced at the insulated container, then at Griffon. “Did you
make it?”
He nodded slightly as he opened up the container. He
questioned, “There’s porridge, as well as some pastries. Which
would you like first?”
To tell the truth, the porridge he made wasn’t that good, so Taya’s eyes fell on the pastries.
Griffon noticed her sk ipping past the porridge, and immediately understood that the porridge he had made was not good enough.
He took one of the pastries with a small fork and handed it to Taya. Then, he took a spoonful of porridge and put it in his mouth.
Seeing the way his expressions had changed slightly and his thick eyebrows subtly raised, Taya couldn’t help but smile. “Maybe you
should give up on cooking.”
When he caught a glance of that smile, it made the terrible porridge taste much better. “Okay. I won’t cook anymore.”
He was too confident earlier, so he didn’t even bother taste testing his porridge. He didn’t expect it to be so unpalatable. As
for Taya…
He looked at Taya, who was eating the pastries and drinking milk. “If it’s so bad, why did you eat all of it the last time?”
Taya lightly took a sip of the milk lightly without answering. Instead, she changed the topic and asked him, “Where are you taking me?”
Griffon refused to fall for it, and his gaze under the sunglasses was
fixed on her. “Was it because I made it?”
Taya raised her eyes and gave him a look that implied he was being delusional. She then lowered her head and concentrated on eating breakfast.
Griffon smiled a little. He started the car, reversed it with one hand
and drove away from the villa before steadily making his way
toward the shopping mall.
Behind the cool sports car, dozens of luxury cars all drove into the most luxurious shopping mall in Arcadia.
Griffon opened the car door. Being a gentleman, he led Taya out of the car and held her hand in front of the passing crowd.
Taya saw a lot of people staring at them. Feeling a little
uncomfortable, she wanted to shake off Griffon’ hand, but he
refused to let go.
He leaned over slightly and whispered in her ear, “This is what I
owe you.”
Taya raised her head and looked at his tall figure. “What?”
While leading her to the mall, Griffon replied, “Being open about
our relationship.”
During those five years, she had been hiding in the dark and could
not see the light. From then on, he wanted her to live proudly.
