Chapter 1976


    ...


    The man was tall and straight, with an outstanding temperament. He stood out among the crowd.


    It was easy to identify him.


    Surprise crossed Mia''s eyes, and she raised her hand and called out, "Brother, here!"


    She did not step forward like the others. Instead, she stood there with hesitation and waited for him


    toe up to her.


    The man was wearing an exquisitely crafted ck suit, looking much more mature and steady than


    his peers.


    He raised to see the watch and said in a mellow voice, "Have you been waiting for a long time? The


    ne waste for half an hour."


    Mia observed his expression for some time and asked hesitantly, "Are you no longer angry at me?"


    "No." Dan Bond looked a little sad.


    He reached out and knocked lightly on her forehead. Then in a gloomy and resentful tone, he said,


    "You insisted on getting married. How could I not be angry?"


    Mia lowered her head like a guilty child who had done something wrong.


    She grew up with Dan.


    Dan was her neighbor, six years older than her.


    Though he was born in an influential family, he used to live in the countryside. Because of his poor


    lung in childhood, his family sent him to recuperate in their rtive''s house in the countryside.


    Mia and Mr. Chadwick lived alone together. However, Mr. Chadwick was busy with his career in the


    vige. He couldn''t take care of his granddaughter most of the time, so he often asked Dan to take


    care of her.


    It was Dan who took Mia to and from school.


    Thus, they had developed a deep rtionship.


    She had always regarded him as her elder brother, though unrted to her by blood.


    The Bond family settled down in Country M long ago. Dan was very capable. Last year, he had


    transferred the focus of his career overseas and seldom stayed at home.


    When Mia told him her decision of getting married, Dan objected.


    He disapproved of it because she would marry a man she just met. He was even unwilling toe


    back to attend her wedding when she called to invite him.


    After that, he no longer contacted her.


    Mia thought that he would be angry for a long time.


    Therefore, when Dan sent her the message that he woulde back home and asked her to pick


    him up, she was very surprised.


    Dan sighed softly, seeing her lowering her eyes and not daring to look at him. He had no way to put


    on a straight face to her, so he rubbed her head and said in a gentle tone, "Forget it. Let''s go eat


    something first."


    Mia smiled.


    After leaving the airport, they went to a steakhouse.


    After cutting the steak on the te, Dan did not eat it. Instead, he handed the te to Mia and took


    her uncut steak.


    He did it naturally.


    In the past, when Simon and her instructor went abroad to enter the violin contest, Dan would


    sometimes apany them. Every time they ate steaks, he would cut the steak into pieces for her.


    Mia felt warm. "Thank you for your consideration."


    In addition to Mr. Chadwick, Dan could be regarded as her only family in the world.


    Dan also smiled, his eyes full of indulgence and love for her. "You''re still as childish as before!"


    She said, "It''s not long. We haven''t seen each other for only one year!"


    Dan looked a little excited, and he murmured with emotion, "You''re right. Just one year."


    But now, she was already married.


    Dan seemed to be a little upset. However, when he looked up, he regained his calmposure.


    Mia''s cell phone rang.


    Desmond worked overtime in thepany. The maid said that she didn''t go home after school, so


    he called to ask.


    Dan was back, and Mia was so happy that she forgot to mention this to Desmond, so she said, "I''m


    outside. I won''t go back for dinner tonight."


    Desmond asked, "Who is it?"


    Mia looked at the person opposite her and said with a smile, "My family is here."


    Desmond was surprised.


    He knew Mia''s family background. Before Mr. Chadwick passed away, he was worried that Mia


    would be alone, so he entrusted her to Mr. Borbon.


    He had ever heard that she had other family members.


    Desmond thought that he should entertain her family as her husband. "Send me an address. After


    I''m done with my work, I''ll go look for you."


    Mia agreed. After hanging up the phone, Mia sent him the address.


    After dinner, it was already dark outside.


    When they came out of the restaurant, Desmond had also arrived by his car.


    Desmond narrowed his eyes without batting an eyelid when he saw the man standing beside Mia.

    The man dressed in dark clothes was different from him. He was handsome, remaining calm and


    unhurriedly.


    Dan also looked him up and down. With a mischievous smile, Desmond was like one of those


    handsome young masters dressed in fine clothes in the ancient paintings. Girls would easily fall in


    love with such a man.


    Mia took the initiative to introduce Dan. "This is my brother, Dan Bond."


    Desmond raised an eyebrow. "Your brother?"


    Mia exined, "He lived next door to me. Since we grew up together, we consider each other as a


    family. He went abroad before and just came back today."


    Childhood sweethearts.


    The two words burst out of Desmond''s mind immediately.


    Dan reached out and said, "Hello, I''m Dan Bond."


    Desmond held his hand. "Nice to meet you, I''m Desmond Chin."


    They briefly shook each other''s hands before letting their hands go.


    The corners of Desmond''s mouth curled up. "Since you''re her family, you''re also my family. How


    about paying a visit to our house? We''d happy to have a feast at home with you."


    Dan said, "It''s okay. We never stand on ceremony."


    Mia turned to look at Dan and said, "Didn''t you say that you wanted to go around my university?


    Now that my husband is also we. Why don''t we go there together?"


    But Dan shook his head. "No. Let''s do it another day."


    Desmond was slightly taken aback.


    He had just been a little alert, but now, he sensed danger.


    Mia obediently nodded. "That''s good. You just came back by ne and must be very tired. Go back


    and rest early!"


    Dan said, "Okay."


    Mia and Desmond sent Dan back to the hotel, which was just nearby.


    When they arrived, Dan took his suitcase and got out of the car.


    Mia leaned against the car window and waved at him. "Good night!"


    Dan smiled and said, "Good night."


    He nodded slightly at Desmond and then carried his luggage into the hotel.


    Mia said, "Let''s go home."


    Desmond replied, "Okay."


    As the car drove on the road, Desmond nced at the rearview mirror from the corner of his eye.


    In his sight, Dan, who had just arrived at the entrance of the hotel, stopped after they left. He turned


    around and looked at their car.


    The night was deep and long.


    Mia took a shower and nned to apply some skincare products to her face, but Desmond dragged


    her onto the bed.


    It seemed that Desmond was determined to torture her in bed tonight.


    Mia was overwhelmed by her dear husband, whose blood was boiling with insanely erotic feelings.


    Her head was in a whirl as his thin lips pressed aginst her ears. He stubbornly repeated, "Mi, you


    are mine!"


    Mia nodded and echoed in a soft voice. "I am yours."


    Desmond said, "Only mine."


    Mia replied obediently, "Yes, only yours!"


    Only then did Desmond let go of his jealous feeling.
