Chapter 179: A Night at Sea
“Merry, no matter how much you provoke, I will never be angry with you.” Albert laughed, stood up and looked at Merry with a smile.
“Nervous, you quickly send me back, I have to work tomorrow.” See provoke him useless, Merry can only dry eyes, in fact, before Tony words have made it very clear, put her long vacation.
“Tony has already given you a vacation, so you don’t have to worry about work, Sage Air will not go out of business, just enjoy this rare vacation at ease.” Albert wrapped his arms around his chest and looked at the sunset on the sea level.
“But–”
“Hush, don’t you think the sunset is beautiful.” Albert came to the side of the boat and said with his hand on the boat rail.
“Beautiful, very beautiful indeed, so beautiful that people can not move away from the eyes, but unfortunately ah! The sunset is infinite, just near dusk, there is nothing to see.” Merry deliberately said.
Albert turned around, leaned on the guardrail to look at Merry, sighed: “You’re right, the sunset is good, but it will soon disappear! In spite of this, yet we can keep it in our minds, and even photograph it.”
Albert said, when really took out the phone to shoot the remaining sun.
“No matter how beautiful it is, it is nothing but a painting, no matter how beautiful it is, it can’t be a meal, no matter how beautiful it is ……”
“Merry, you seem to like to refute me now. I once heard someone say that the more you care about a person, the more you take it very personally, whether it’s good or bad, isn’t that the truth.” Albert didn’t come any closer to Merry, just looked at her with his amorous eyes.
“I don’t care about you, I want to rest.” Merry said, turned around, to go down the cabin, suddenly heard Albert shrieked.
“Oh no–”
Albert’s cry of crap made Merry startled, was about to go down the stairs of the foot, nearly stepped in the air, if she did not grab her hand quickly, probably directly ‘fluttered’ down.
“Albert, please don’t talk in a panic, okay? People scare people, they can scare people to death.” Merry turned her head and saw Albert leaning over.
“Yes, I won’t next time, take a break, I’ll make dinner and call you when it’s ready.” Albert smiled and made a mouth punching gesture.
“You’re making dinner?” Merry hesitantly looked at Albert at his side, some disbelief, until now, she felt that they used to understand really little, really never seen him cook before, originally wanted to ask him when he learned to cook, but then shook her head, in the end and went down to find a place to sleep.
Albert whistled back to the kitchen, took out the red wine, fried steak, just a little hesitant when frying, do not know how rare Merry want to eat steak.
He wanted to ask, but turned back after a few steps, and for the first time, he made the decision for Merry.
A quarter of an hour later, Albert prepared everything and came over to ask Merry to eat, but looking at her, she seemed to be asleep, and some heart could not bear it.
In fact, Merry did not fall asleep, originally insomnia, not to mention floating around in the sea, where to sleep.
She was struggling in her heart, she did not know if she should enjoy these days of vacation, if these days, she let herself and Albert, love, love, love, love, then how to face it after returning?
Thinking about it, she heard Albert’s footsteps, so she hurriedly pretended to sleep.
I thought Albert would call her, but I didn’t expect him to just stand and not move at all.
Hearing Merry’s breathing faster, Albert walked straight over and leaned down and said, “Let’s eat first before you sleep, okay?”
“When did you learn how to cook?” Merry knew she couldn’t hide it from him, so she turned around, but didn’t get up because she felt the pressure and was afraid of running into embarrassment.
“Very early, at least twenty years, just …… never had the opportunity to show before, how about it, appreciate the face to try my craft?” Knowing that Merry likes to target him, so this time he changed his way of speaking.
“Yeah, but I didn’t prepare the stomach medicine oh, are you sure you don’t need to call 120 first?” Looking at Albert like this, Merry had an idea in her heart all of a sudden.
Since there is no way to avoid it now, let’s go with the flow. Instead of arguing and avoiding each other, we should spend this vacation as a real vacation according to our own heart.
“I don’t think it’s necessary, please.” Albert said, leaned down to put on Merry’s shoes, when he held Merry’s feet, obviously felt her light trembling, every reaction she had, he would take it into his heart, from today onwards, he would understand her a little more every day, would love her a little more every day, must make up for the gap of these ten years.
“Why do you have to be so nice to me? In these ten years, you should have had many women, are you so sweet to each one of them?” Merry said, heart actually a little sour.
Although she knew that he must not have had fewer women in these ten years, but as soon as she thought that he was as considerate to other women as he was to herself, she became uncomfortable in her heart, and this discomfort, naturally, showed on her face, and in her movements, she drew back her feet and went down to the ground with her bare feet.
“Would you believe me if I said I never had?” Albert wasn’t trying to coax Merry, and it did.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.
He was Albert, Albert, where he needed to cajole women, and even if he didn’t say a word, those women would come forward and stick it to him.
“It is said that a man can be relied on, a sow will rise to the tree, and the words of a man seem to be even more unreliable.” Merry didn’t look back, but headed for the dining room.
“Alas, women-” Albert shook his head and sighed.
Now he could be quite sure that Merry was indeed not the Merry of ten years ago, for ten years ago Merry would never have said that, much less doubted him.
But no matter how, he will not give up, he believes that Merry has changed, but more than that, he believes that Merry’s heart to love him has not changed.
Looking at the table lit candles, flowers, wine, and covered steak, Merry suddenly felt as if something her eyes was going to roll out.
Ten years ago when they were together there was no romance, but now ten years later he wants to make up for all the romance..
“Then I’ll eat.” Knowing that Albert is around, Merry picked up the knife and fork to the side and said behind her.
“Wait, it’s Valentine’s Day, of course it’s two people together, and we should celebrate first.” Upon hearing this, Albert hurriedly went forward to take the knife and fork out of Merry’s hand and put the wine glass into her hand instead.
“Hearing the word ‘Valentine’s Day’ reminds me of your ‘premeditation’ with Tony, well, for the sake of your sincerity, cheers and thank you Chef Xia for dinner.” Merry finally got a smile on her face and raised her glass to clink lightly with Albert.
“Cheers!” Albert smiled, the uneasy stone in his heart finally fell.
The shaking glasses seemed to see each other, even though only candles were lit, Merry felt Albert’s askance light, like a kilowatt incandescent lamp shone so brightly that she dared not look up at him.
“Want to know how I’ve spent the last ten years?” After the first sip of wine, Merry seems to be afraid of Albert to speak, preempted.
“Of course I want to know, but not now. Steak should be eaten while it’s hot, here, have this.” Albert said, pushing his cut portion of steak to Merry.
It turned out that he had already cut up the steak while the two were talking just now.
“It seems I really know too little about you, Albert, do you really think we were in love ten years ago?” Merry looked at the steak in front of her, each piece was evenly cut in size, so you can imagine how skilled he was, but she knew nothing about it, when we were together ten years ago, he never cooked, and when we occasionally went to his place for dinner, she was the one who cooked.
“Of course, Merry, you’re the one who taught me what love is. You’re the one who gave me hope in life. You’re the one who showed me what happiness means, and you’re the one who made me ……”
“Stop, if you keep talking like that, I’ll be a saint, am I really that great?” Merry forked up a piece of steak and covered it up.
She was afraid she would be moved, afraid she would be soft, ten years ago, this is how she fell step by step into the whirlpool of Albert’s love, ten years ago, this is how she, little by little, loved him to the point of inexorable love.
“In my heart, you are irreplaceable, Merry, if ……”
“Well, it’s really nice, it seems that if you really come to New York, you can consider opening a restaurant.” Merry interrupted and tsked his praise.
“I, the chef, will only cook for you.” Albert’s face was a contented smile; at this time of year, there was nothing more enjoyable than watching the love of your life eat the food you cooked.
“It’s really delicious, and this cream soup is also good, I wonder if there is any after-dinner dessert?” Merry said, “I can’t get enough.
She had known Albert for eleven years, but this was the first time she realized that Albert’s cooking skills were much better than hers.
It turns out that God is really unfair, look at Albert, not only good family, good looks, people are also gentle and considerate, even cooking a meal, are comparable to chefs, which makes her such a woman how to mix in the future.
But at this time, The Barrett family old lady said the words in her ears: dead girl, what makes you pester my grandson, even if you reincarnate, you are not worthy of him, here are two million, I think you can not earn so much in a lifetime, you take the money and leave here, leave my grandson.
“Of course there is, the love cake.” As he spoke, Albert had brought out the cake, and it was really in the shape of a love heart.
“I can’t see that you are still an all-powerful man, the woman who marries you in the future will definitely be the happiest woman in this world.” Looking at the colorful and fragrant cake, Merry sourly said.
“So are you willing to be that happy woman?” Albert said, turned around and took out a bouquet of flowers plus a red jewelry box from behind him.
“You are ……” looking at the flowers Albert suddenly took out and the ring box that had been opened, Merry’s heart jumped suddenly, this scenario had appeared countless times in dreams, but today it was in reality, right in front of her eyes, she covered her mouth in shock, really The actual fact is that you can’t believe it.
