Chapter 331 Are They Mad or Short of Money
Harry really wanted to dig up the ring given to her by Thomas, and then to throw it into the trash bin.
She was still somewhat resisting him, and he couldn't force it on her for the moment.
"Break up with him right now, otherwise you'll be expecting your fiance to be cuckolded day after day!" Uttering these words, the man then stood up from the sofa and went back to the kitchen to fry the steak.
If they encountered any trouble again, he was determined to take her back to D City and get remarried, where they could take their time and properly prepare their wedding ceremony.
Whether she liked it or not, getting remarried was the main priority for the time being.
He was going to spend his whole entire life pleasing her. He wanted to let her know that; he really was serious this time, and there would be no more distrust between them.
The dinner was finally ready when it was almost ten o'clock.
Being distracted by the things going on around her, Lola didn't have the time to eat too many snacks. And so she had a big appetite to eat the steak, spaghetti and the other things he cooked for her.
Lola had to admit that Harry was a really good cook, indeed.
She munched on three pieces of black pepper steak, a plate of spaghetti with seafood, five cheese prawns, and a fruit salad.
She felt in a good mood after the delicious meal.
After gracefully wiping his mouth with a paper napkin, Harry began to clear the table.
Lola intended to give him a helping hand, but she soon gave up on the thought and went to the living room.
Because she was too full from eating so much, Lola had to wander around for a while in the living room. She was thinking about calling Nicole, but she was afraid that Nicole might have gone to sleep already long before 11 pm.
However, Nicole, who was sound asleep back in the old house, was murmuring in her sleep, "Daddy chased mommy, and then little Nicole stayed with daddy and mommy forever..."
On hearing Nicole's words, Kevin, who had been taking care of her at that time, felt sad too.
Having been told by his son that Lola was indeed not the murderer, he felt guilty towards the girl.
'Rose, who on earth killed you?' Looking at the darkness outside the window, Kevin deeply missed his wife.
In Crescent Spring
Harry didn't leave the kitchen until he threw all the plates and dishes into the dishwasher.
Seeing Lola wriggling her body after dinner, he went over to her and caught her by her hands. "Let's go for a walk, " he said.
Lola didn't reject him, and so she followed him out of Crescent Spring.
At this time of the day there was no one outside besides them, and they walked slowly towards the park.
Each time Lola got rid of his hand, Harry would hold it again. After a few times, he held her hand tightly into his and casually pointed at somewhere in the dark grove, saying, "Over there, someone a while back jumped into the river."
Lola trembled as she glanced at the pitch-dark place; out of all the things in the world, the most she was afraid of were ghosts.
"Let's get out of here, far away from that place!"
Trying not to laugh, Harry held her little hand tightly and continued walking. "Don't worry, I'll be here for you if anything happens. Let's keep walking and go home after."
He should have taken her to the cinema to watch a ghost movie. He couldn't help but smile softly at the fact that Lola would have constantly shivered into his arms with fear the whole movie.
"What are you laughing at?" Terribly scared, Lola looked at his inexplicable smiling face. Was he glad to see her frightened?
But Harry then put away his smile in a haste, and coughed, "Nothing, let's go now, quickly!"
As they approached the pitch-dark place, Lola involuntarily quickened her steps. Bluntly, Harry put his arm around her shoulder, and she didn't refuse him.
At this time, some strange sounds were suddenly heard coming from the grove. Lola was so scared that she almost couldn't feel her legs anymore.
In that moment, she wanted to run away, yet she couldn't, because Harry was holding her hand.
The strange sounds were then heard coming nearer to them, however, it seemed that something was wrong...
Lola listened more carefully. 'What the fuck! That's not how a ghost sounds!'
Instead, it sounded like a woman in the peak of an orgasm. In the darkness, Harry was looking at Lola with playful eyes.
Lola blushed instantly, and murmured, "Are they going mad or short of money? Why don't they get a room in the hotel?" The next moment, she ran away.
Obviously, she had totally forgot the fact that Harry had also once taken her into the grove last year.
Watching her running away, Harry burst into laughter.
'How adorable this little woman is!'
Moving fast and eventually catching up with her, Harry continued to scare her. "Look there! I heard an accident happened a few days ago. It seems that..."
"Harry, stop talking and let's hurry up!" She believed all of it, without a hint of doubt. To his surprise, Lola reached for his big hand and then walked towards the illuminated place ahead with him.
Without feeling amused because of Lola's reflection, instead, he started getting a heavy heart.
He had merely played a trick on her, but she still believed him. He noticed how she was relying on him with her heart.
Harry then lovingly lifted her up to his chest and desperately began to run with her.
"What happened? What happened?" Frightened by Harry's sudden running, Lola buried her head deep in his chest, not even daring to look up.
Did he saw something dangerous? What happened?
Ignoring her every question, Harry just kept running forward, breathing heavily.
He didn't put her down until they arrived in front of the villa, and beads of sweat were pouring off of his forehead already.
Still haunted by her fears, Lola looked back but saw that nothing was there.
"What on earth did you see?" Lola asked. She couldn't help asking him, trying to make sure that nothing bad had been chasing them.
Touching her long hair gently, Harry looked at her with endless love in his eyes, and said, "I saw our happy future!" That was why he had quickened his pace, to pursue the happiness that belonged to them.
...
Lola thought he was playing jokes on her, so she knocked his big hand off with discontent. "Fine, keep your secrets to yourself then!"
After changing his sports shoes, Harry held her in his arms again and headed upstairs.
Thinking about later going to sleep, Lola cleared her throat, and said, "Please leave me the bedroom. You can sleep in the guestroom." There was a big lamp in the bedroom, so she could go to sleep with the lights on. Although she knew that there was also a lamp in the guestroom, she didn't feel safe there.
Harry didn't utter a word in reply.
Seeing his reply, she said, "You, as a Big Man, wouldn't be so mean to refuse me a room, right?" Would he be stingy?
And even if he didn't agree, she would never sleep together with him, not even in the same room with him!
In front of the bedroom's door, Harry put her down. Then, almost in an instant, Lola pushed him out and tried to close the door.
But Harry would never leave her to sleep alone! And he successfully squeezed through the closing door in the room!
Looking at Harry going to the bathroom triumphantly, Lola felt frustrated for not being as powerful as he was.
Did she had to sleep in the living room for being so weak?
When she thought of it, Lola gave up her fight and struggle because this was, after all, his villa, and she was only an outsider.
Lola had no idea that she had become the owner of this house already, a long time ago.
After opening the next door and turning on the light, Lola found out that the furniture inside it was all covered by white pieces of cloth.
