Filed To Story: Returning to Her Not-So-Poor Family
“If you annoy me again, I’ll get out of the car.”
Romeo immediately quieted down, just hugging her and occasionally kissing her forehead and lips.
“You’re pushing your luck more and more!” Mirabella was getting a bit pissed off. When would he learn to have some boundaries?
“Maybe I need someone to keep me in line?” Romeo replied, grinning in a way that was both charming and smitten. “Maybe you should step in more, keep me in check. I need a partner who can rein me in.” Romeo’s eyes were full of warmth and affection.
Mirabella was a bit overwhelmed and turned her head away, deliberately avoiding his gaze.
Not long after, the car stopped in front of a luxurious mansion. This was the most renowned private estate in Summerfield, purchased last year by an important figure for a staggering 180 million dollars.
Unlike Reflections Villa, where Mirabella resided, which was the most expensive residential area in Summerfield, comprising thirty–three opulent households, Moon Villa was an entirely private domain.
The villa was surrounded by a riot of colorful flowers, and its architecture was tastefully designed, exuding an air of grandeur. When illuminated by the evening lights, it appeared even more vibrant and enchanting, captivating the hearts of those who beheld it.
Nearby, there was a crescent–shaped lake that, whenever bathed in moonlight, rèsembled a moon descended to Earth, enchanting all who gazed upon it. As a result, this place was fittingly named Moon Villa.
Mirabella was a little puzzled. Weren’t they supposed to go to a restaurant for dinner? What were they doing here?
Carl got out of the car, politely opened the door, and told Mirabella, “Miss, this is Mr. Romeo’s home. It’s the first time he’s brought a lady here…”
Another first. It seemed like Mirabella was taking a lot of “firsts” in Romeo’s life.
Romeo came out of the car carrying Mirabella. His handsome eyes filled with affection, his voice filled with tenderness and emotion, “This is actually our home.” Mirabella, being carried towards the villa, felt a little uncomfortable, “Put me down, I can walk.”
“I just want to pamper my wife.” Romeo looked down at her beautiful face, expressing his intense love, “Let me hold you a little longer, or I’ll miss you every day. Romeo carried Mirabella to the entrance and had her place her fingers on the fingerprint scanner, recording her fingerprints.
“Visit our home more often,” he said.
The word “home” warmed Mirabella’s heart, and her face blushed unconsciously.
Inside the majestic villa, there was only one man named Derek serving as both butler and attendant, waiting for them in the garden. Although he knew a girl would be coming today, seeing Romeo embrace her so affectionately left Derek in shock.
Maintaining his professional composure, Derek hid his surprise, but deep down, he was utterly astonished.
“Mr. McMillian, welcome home.” Derek respectfully bowed and then turned his gaze toward Mirabella, his eyes filled with kindness.
“This is my wife, Mirabella.”
Upon hearing Romeo’s introduction, Derek quickly bowed and said, “Good evening, madam. I’m the butler, Derek.”
“Derek, good evening. Mirabella greeted him politely.
Seeing the girl’s elegant and refined demeanor, and her well–behaved manners, Derek’s impression of her improved, “Dinner is ready, please follow me.”
Mirabella whispered in Romeo’s arms, “Let me down.”
“I just want to hold you.”
Their interaction fell on Derek’s ears, shocking him once again.
It was rumored that the McMillian family had a marriage agreement with the Collins family. The Collins‘ daughter had visited Mr. McMillian several times but never met him. The fact that Mr. McMillian had personally recorded her fingerprint and said such, sweet words meant this girl must be more important to him than the Collins‘ daughter. Romeo was a person who enjoyed tranquility and disliked being disturbed. Apart from Derek, the only other person in the house was a male chef named Gary.
At this moment, Gary had created a dreamlike atmosphere at the dining table. Beautiful rose petals fell delicately into the caviar, creating an ethereal ambiance that was truly enchanting.
Shrimp balls shaped like lychee fruit were placed on lifelike tree branches, resembling a bountiful harvest. Each dish exhibited an ultimate visual appeal.
Knowing that an exceptionally important girl would be dining at the house today, Gary didn’t dare to be negligent. However, seeing Mr. McMillian carrying a girl inside, he, like Derek, was also shocked to the core.
“This is the future Mrs. McMillian. Derek introduced first.
“Good evening, madam! Sir!” Gary hurriedly greeted them. After arranging the last dish, he bowed and left.
There were only two people at the dining table. It was a dinner filled with romance and aesthetic appeal. The gently swaying tree leaves outside the window added to the astonishing beauty, creating a truly romantic ambiance.
*From now on, we’ll have our dinners at home,” Romeo said as he sat down, embracing Mirabella and not letting her sit separately on a chair. He held a fork and knife with one hand and fed her with the other
“Romeo. I can do it myself,” Mirabella protested, sitting on his lap, feeling a bit restless with her legs.
She was no longer a child She didn’t need him to feed her!
“So, you’re not letting me hold you or feed you. Do you not consider me your fiance, or do you not want to be my fiancée?”
Mirabella was somewhat irritated, “What does that have to do with anything?”
“It does,” Romeo slowly said, “Your rejection and distance from me suggests that I’m not doing enough, not enough to move you. I need to spend more time with you.” “I can do without feeding you,” Romeo said with a chuckle, “How about you feed me instead?”
“In your dreams!”
“It’s either one or the other”
“Why would I have to make such a choice?”
Romeo’s smile softened, “Then let me feed you properly.”
Mirabella huffed and puffed as she ate, looking adorably grumpy.
“Try this,” Romeo picked up another dish, “It tastes pretty good.”
As Mirabella ate, she felt his other hand gently rubbing her back, “Can we eat properly for once?”
“Your beauty stops me from eating a meal without looking at you.”
Finally, after dinner, Romeo held her and sat on the couch, in the same intimate position, “I’ll take you upstairs later.”
“I need to go home.”
“Don’t you want to see what your future home looks like? Where our room is…”
“You’ve had enough…”
Seeing her slightly annoyed look, Romeo’s smile became more mischievous.
Derek served two cups of coffee, politely inviting them to taste.
“Put me down.”
Mirabella was almost out of words.
Romeo brought the coffee to her lips, “How does it taste?”
She looked incredibly beautiful–while drinking, her clear eyes downcast, looking like a fairy.
“It’s okay.” Mirabella drank half of the coffee, her lips still a bit moist. The coffee was fragrant and elegant, leaving a pleasant aftertaste. It was top–notch coffee. Romeo cupped her face and suddenly leaned in for a kiss.
Her lips still tasted of coffee. After a light taste, Romeo deepened the kiss.
Derek, who was standing nearby, was seeing this side of Romeo for the first time. Romeo was usually cold and stern, his emotions never showing on his face.
Today was the first time he passionately kissed a girl like this!
Who knows how long it went on for, Romeo finally let go of her, “That was pretty good.”
Mirabella was a bit annoyed and wondered what the deal was. Didn’t they have another cup of coffee over there?
He brought her here, not for any nefarious purposes, right?
“If you dare to touch me again, I won’t come next time,” Mirabella warned him.
