Devoted Love, Mr. Hayes’ Darling Wife

Today Severo Laris has a brand new car and ends up getting a flat tire in the chapter and a hard kick from Paula Rouco.

The black Spyker heads south out of town.

Paula Rouco looked out the window and frowned as she asked, “Where are you taking me?”.

Why not get a coffee and talk about it?

Severo Laris looked deeply at her and said, “It’s a quarter to eleven and you must not have had lunch yet.”

“I don’t want lunch.”

“I’m not taking you to dinner, I know you can’t eat.”

In depression, the stomach is not good because of emotional depression, but an empty stomach is even worse for the body.

More or less, she has to eat, now, she is too thin.

When I hugged her just now, it was all a bit suffocating. I was thin too, but I had her in my arms, Claudio’s arms.

We have to regain those lost kilos little by little.

“Aren’t we going to talk about the details of the case?”

Severo Laris smiles, “Whatever you do, you have to fill your stomach first.”

Paula Rouco: “How do you make a career out of this?”

“You don’t get big by not eating, you get big by thinking.”

Paula Rouco is speechless: “…”

All right, that’s good.

Soon, the black Spyker pulled up in front of the bakery on the south side of town.

Paula Rouco smacks her lips, what’s with the buns in broad daylight?

Once the two got out of the car, Severo Laris ordered two xiao long bao (small dumplings).

There was no rush to fill up, as there was another place to go later for something else.

Canteen food.

There aren’t too many stalls at the bakery in the south of town, but it’s pretty crowded at noon at this time.

It’s hot and smoky inside.

It had been a long time since Paula Rouco had been exposed to such strong human fumes, and she had been living in the dark for seven years.

At that moment, the blazing sun was streaming through the window, illuminating her small, white face, and she unconsciously reached out her hand to cover it.

The sun was blinding.

Severo Laris had sat opposite her and did not want to come too close all at once to make her resist.

But when he saw her reach out her hand to protect herself from the sun, he got up from the chair in front of her and stood next to her, the man being much taller than her and thus rightly protecting her from those annoying rays.

Paula Rouco looked at him with a frown, his gaze was not exactly kind.

But Severo Laris lowered his eyes naturally, and they were soft to the core: “What are you looking at me, to see that I can’t fill your stomach, lita. ”

The two dumplings were served steaming, and the waiter brought two small white porcelain plates, into which Severo Laris poured vinegar.

“Don’t you love the Xiao Long Bao from this dumpling store? Eat it fast.”

Paula Rouco picked up her chopsticks and wasted no time in dipping the dumplings in the vinegar.

The soup was delicious and instantly whetted her appetite.

Severo Laris saw that she was eating well, smiled faintly and asked, “Doesn’t it smell good?”

“…” Fragrance.

Paula Rouco gave her face, at first full of resistance, saying she wasn’t going to eat, but her actual actions gave her away.

Two small meatballs, ten, and she ate eight.

Severo Laris ate only two.

After eating the xiao long bao at Chengnan, Severo Laris took her to the next restaurant to show off.

Paula Rouco thought she was going to talk after eating the xiao long bao, but when she arrived at the entrance of Peninsula restaurant, she was frozen by Severo Laris.

Paula Rouco: “I’m not hungry.”

Severo Laris opened the passenger door and bent down to unbuckle her seat belt before pulling her out of the car.

He said to me, “This restaurant seems to be well known in La Ciudad Santa, it is recommended by many people on the internet for the pastries, you should like it.”

“… Since when do you keep tipping in restaurants?”

Gentleman Severo Laris smiled slightly, “I will certainly make a serious strategy when I invite the future Mrs. Laris to dinner.”

“…”

Paula Rouco broke her grip and kept walking.

When we arrived at the restaurant, Severo Laris had reserved a place on the semi-outdoor patio by the pool.

There are lawns and trees next to it and many landscaped coconut trees have been planted.

The patio is pleasant with the occasional sound of summer cicadas, the occasional cool breeze and the sun that doesn’t reach this far.

I ordered a table of food, many of which were Netflix hit desserts, which the girls generally love.

The Kobe steak, cooked medium rare, is tough and juicy and very tasty.

But on the very large plate, just a small piece in the center to make the dish pretty, Paula Rouco ate it in two or three bites.

Severo Laris poured his share on the plate.

Paula Rouco said stubbornly, “I’m not going to eat, I’m full.”

Severo Laris did not return her greeting or the piece of steak, but stood up and said, “Help yourself to the food, I’m going to the bathroom.”

When Severo Laris returned from the bathroom, Paula Rouco ate the steak.

She ate the delicate dessert with a small gold fork as if nothing had happened.

Severo Laris also doesn’t ask where the steak has gone.

After a long moment, Paula Rouco cleared her throat and uncomfortably explained, “Steaks are hard to eat when they’re cold, so I’ll eat them myself.”

Severo Laris looked at her fondly, “You are so right.”

“…”

Paula Rouco silently ate the cheesecake laid out on the marble table.

The more she ate, the weirder it got? weren’t they here to talk about the details of the case?

He looked up suddenly.

Severo Laris’ long arm was outstretched and before she could react, the man’s long fingers wiped pastry cream from the corner of her lips.

All too intimate and deft movements.

Paula Rouco took a tissue and wiped.

She asked, “Are you still talking about the details of the case?”

“Go ahead, I’ll listen.”

“But you don’t even have paper and pen.” She didn’t think he was listening carefully.

Severo Laris looked deeply into her small face and said, “I can remember every word you say without paper and pen.”

“…”

Paula Rouco cooed a lot, deliberately slowing down, not waiting for him to remember, and when he finished, her black and white ebony eyes stared at him with a mocking look, “You remember that well?”

Severo Laris raised an eyebrow and said calmly, “Of course.”

“…” can even remember this, you pervert!

She herself could not remember what she had just said.

In fact, Severo Laris didn’t need her to give him any details of the case, he had already won it.

He hadn’t approached her in all these years and she was busy with the first and last of this case.

Severo Laris remembered something, opened his phone, flipped through the video that had gone viral on the internet and asked her point-blank, “Have you seen this video?”

Paula Rouco’s eyes visibly twitched, she rummaged through the remaining muffin on her plate, ripped it to shreds, and with a hand on her chin and a cold little face, said, “Seen it.

I saw it seven years ago.

Severo Laris said, “The man standing there is not me. As for who exactly, I’m not sure, I’m still checking.”

Paula Rouco said nonchalantly, “This is the video Buena made, she said it was you and her.”

Severo Laris’ brow furrowed and a fierce look crossed his eyes, “Buena?”.

“This video came out seven years ago, not now.”

Severo Laris was actually a bit puzzled, but his rather high IQ still allowed him to make a good guess, “So, seven years ago Buena used this fake video to tell you I had an affair with her?”

“… hmm.” Paula Rouco nodded.

She rested her chin on one hand and crushed a cake from a dainty little plate with a fork without much emotion.

Severo Laris, however, earnestly called her “lita.”

“What for?” she was distracted.

“Look up and look at me.”

“…”

Paula Rouco looked up at him unconsciously.

Severo Laris’ dark, intensely focused eyes were filled with seriousness as he said solemnly, word for word: “I have never touched another woman other than you, held hands, kissed, or fallen in love with another woman other than you. These are things that have only been done with you. You must not doubt me.”

“… you lie.”

Severo Laris froze.

Paula Rouco said, “Engracia kissed you once.”

Severo Laris was stunned, “It was an accident.”

Seeing the lingering in her eyes, Severo Laris suddenly realized something and his eyes lit up with unexpected surprise.

That unexpected kiss was something he remembered firmly for seven years.

“Lita, are you jealous?”

Doubtful, but sure.

Paula Rouco said, “I only did it to disprove what you said.”

Besides, she cooks for other women, which is a much bigger deal than that unexpected kiss from Engracia.

Severo Laris said, “What I have promised you I will not do to anyone, not then, not now, not ever, and there will always be a place just for you, both in my heart and by my side.”

Paula Rouco pursed her small lips, not knowing how to respond and not wanting to for the moment, and rambled, “I would like to have coffee.”

Severo Laris called the waiter.

Paula Rouco said, “A glass of iced Americano, please.”

Severo Laris corrected, “She doesn’t need an iced Americano, give her a hot latte, low, with more milk.”

Waiter: “…”

Paula Rouco: “…”

Finally, Paula Rouco has a hot latte with low influence in the middle of summer.

Paula Rouco didn’t have time to react to what she was about to do before Severo Laris’ unclouded face was already upon her.

Lips touch, intertwine, the kiss is deep.

She tasted the sweetness of the cake in her mouth, it was sweet and delicious.

I couldn’t help but kiss a little too long and miss him too much.Copyright by Nôv/elDrama.Org.

A single kiss makes him lose control, feverish in his thoughts, but finally the gentleman stops.

He looked at the slightly red lips of the little thing in his arms that had been kissed and said, “There is no one else, I have always kept my body for you, my heart is like this and my body is like this, I belong to you alone.”

Paula Rouco stared at him for a long moment of silence before her dark almond-shaped eyes looked up at the top of a wall not far away and blinked at the camera, warning, “There is a camera.”

Severo Laris: “…”

Severo Laris opened the car door behind her, put his big arm around her waist and got into the car, saying, “Then get in and hide.”

Paula Rouco: “…”

She didn’t want to kiss him.

…

Severo Laris had returned Paula Rouco to The Rouco Family and was almost back on the road to Villa Moon Lake when the cell phone rang.

Salvino said over the phone, “Boss, we found out who posted that video on the Internet, and it’s the same person, Buena, who was behind the last online hacking of Mrs. Buena. ”

Severo Laris said, “Understood, go and find out who the man in the video is.”

“Yes, boss.”

After hanging up the phone, Severo Laris frowned, with a frost of ice under his eyes.

Good one.

It was as if there was a past between her and Lita that he didn’t know about.

Severo Laris is not very reassuring.
