My Sweet Wife

About having to call the director, Larissa gave up because she couldn’t ask for her phone, she would just have to apologize properly to the director tomorrow.

Nathanael Lora took Larissa to see a movie first, in the movie theater here, there are only foreign movies and they don’t come with written subtitles. This was very laborious for Larissa who was originally bad at culture in school.

“Larissa, don’t you like it?” Nathanael Lora was engrossed in what she was watching and reached for her popcorn to eat when she saw Larissa’s drowsy look.

Larissa responded with a rambling, “Uh-huh.”

“I thought women loved these lovey-dovey movies?” Nathanael Lora looked at her quizzically.

Larissa answered him back vaguely, “Sleepy, watching unintelligible movies has a hypnotic effect.”

She didn’t sleep well last night, this Nathanael Lora also knows, look at her like this, really sleepy. Nathanael Lora also can’t bear to disturb her sleep, let her lean on his shoulder to sleep.

When he took back his eyes and continued to watch the movie, he thought about Larissa’s comment that she didn’t understand, and felt a bit regretful that he didn’t know that she didn’t understand the foreign language. In the past, Larissa used to be the strong woman who knew everything, but now he realized that he didn’t know her that well.

Waiting for a movie to end, Larissa lifted her hand to give Nathanael Lora a shoulder squeeze, “Did your arm get numb from my sleep?”

“Yes a little.”

“Then why didn’t you wake me up?” Larissa asked looking at Nathanael Lora.

Nathanael Lora didn’t say anything, he was enjoying being massaged by Larissa, he had known Larissa from the beginning and then he couldn’t stay away from her, he had to have her, it should be because of the way she was so good to him, it made him feel relaxed, it made him enjoy being loved, and he hoped that she would always love him and stay by his side.

Larissa pressed Nathanael Lora for a while, he got up and she followed, her hands not idle to press his shoulders, they walked to the car and she looked at it, “Is your shoulder still numb? Don’t drive if it’s going to be numb.”

“It’s not numb anymore, but give me a little more pressure, you’re doing a good job.” Nathanael Lora looked over at her, his narrow, dainty eyes holding a smile.

Seeing him smile, Larissa couldn’t help but follow suit, there are times when a smile is contagious.

When they reached a restaurant, the waiter inside came over to greet them, “Do you have a reservation, please?”

“I’m Nathanael Lora, called for a reservation.”

“Oh, please follow me.” The waitress smiled and spoke English, leading the way.

Nathanael Lora looked at Larissa and asked, “Can you understand the conversation I just had with the waiter?”

“A simple conversation, I can still understand.” If she didn’t know how to do it at all, then wasn’t she just inviting bad publicity for herself by following her abroad to record a reality TV program?

The two of them walked into the restaurant and took their seats, an upscale French restaurant with a lilting violin playing.

Nathanael Lora and Larissa are also people who often go in and out of this kind of place, and neither of them are from ordinary families, the temperament they carry with them will always make the people around them look at them that much more.

The waiter handed Nathanael Lora the menu, “Sir, ma’am, please order.”

“Uh-huh.” Nathanael Lora gave the waiter an extra tip after he finished ordering because the waiter addressed Larissa as ma’am.

At that moment, a man approached them, “Hi Nathanael Lora, it’s really you. I saw you come in, looked at you for a moment, and walked over to confirm before I was sure you were really Nathanael Lora.”

Nathanael Lora got up and turned his face to look at the person he was talking to, Ewenny’s headmaster from his theater work abroad.

“I didn’t realize it was such a coincidence.” Nathanael Lora greeted him politely.

“Well, it is a good coincidence.”

The headmaster glanced at Larissa on the side, then retracted his eyes to look at Nathanael Lora, “I’ve seen this pretty girl before, she’s a good friend of Ewenny’s, and she often came with you before to support Ewenny and watch Ewenny perform in the drama.”

“Why are you guys here? Did Ewenny come along? You guys don’t know, since Ewenny quit the troupe, our troupe’s ticket sales were not as good as they used to be, which later led to the troupe’s disbandment, and I just went back to China to get together with my friends because the troupe was disbanded. I didn’t expect to run into Nathanael Lora here.”

“I know that it is because of Ewenny that our troupe is not disbanded, when Ewenny was in the troupe, her friends would always go to the shows, especially Nathanael Lora, who would pack up the shows as soon as she went there, and could pack up several shows in a row. It is thanks to Ewenny that our troupe continues to perform.”

“Nathanael Lora, can you ask Ewenny to contact me? I want to continue performing, performing is a lifelong love for the people in our troupe.”

Listening to them talk about Ewenny, Larissa felt a little uncomfortable inside and looked to Nathanael Lora and said, “I’m going to go to the bathroom first.”

“Uh-huh.”

Nathanael Lora eyed Larissa’s back and he subconsciously frowned.

This headmaster said these words, he didn’t answer a single one of them because of consideration for Larissa, her English is not good, I don’t know how much she understood all of them, the name Ewenny, Larissa can definitely understand it.

Plus Larissa also knew this headmaster, and mentioning Ewenny, was Larissa uncomfortable?

Nathanael Lora retracts her eyes to look at the headmaster in front of her, “Ewenny and I are just normal friends, if you want to contact her, I can give you, her phone number.”

“Oh Nathanael Lora, what do you mean by that? Is it angry?” After a pause, the headmaster smiled, as if trying to speak in a tone of lighthearted amusement, “I don’t think you’re a careful person, you like Ewenny, something our whole regiment knows, it’s not a big deal.”

“To contact Ewenny and come back to continue the show, then our troupe still can’t do it without your support Mr. Nathanael.”

Nathanael Lora stared coldly at the headmaster and spoke in a cold voice, “I have a fiancée now, and I am also about to prepare for marriage, and it won’t be a surprise that the wedding should be within the nearest month as well. So you stop associating me with Ewenny.”

“That’s … oh well. I heard that Ewenny is pregnant, so it seems that the baby in this womb is not yours.”

“I’ve been there, I get it all. I didn’t see you and Ewenny getting together in the first place, after all it was Mr. Leonardo that Ewenny liked. Now you can find your own happiness, and I sincerely congratulate you.” The head of the group was a bit taken aback, but congratulated him anyway.

Being an older person in an open foreign country, they were more receptive to things emotional.

A regretful look appeared on the troupe leader’s face, “Then it seems that it’s impossible for me to reorganize the troupe to perform again here. I wish you and Ms. Larissa happiness. I’ll leave now, so I won’t disturb your meal.”

Watching the headmaster leave, Nathanael Lora was a bit puzzled, the headmaster had just mentioned Ewenny’s pregnancy, knowing that Ewenny was pregnant, then did he know about Ewenny’s husband abroad, it seemed like he should have asked.

This meal, Larissa did not eat very happily, she lowered her head and just focused on eating the whole time without saying a word.

“Is this meal to your liking?” Nathanael Lora took the initiative to open his mouth, he knew that she was not in a good mood just now because of that headmaster’s mention of Ewenny, so he wanted to avoid the topic.

Larissa finished chewing the meal in her mouth and returned, “Not bad.”

Nathanael Lora adds, “This restaurant is one that I specifically asked my friend about, and I think it tastes pretty good too. It says that the owner of this place is from our country, so the French food in this place is not very authentic, but it suits our taste.”

“Try my salt-baked escargot, this one has a strong salt-baked flavor, dipped in the chili sauce here, you should love it.” Nathanael Lora got a snail meat out with a fork, dipped it in the hot sauce and handed it to Larissa’s mouth.

Larissa opened her mouth and ate the snail. Gave him a smile. A sort of thank you.

Because he knew she liked spicy food and she wanted him to love her so badly, so anything she could find to show that he cared about her made her happy.

It was a pretty good day until they went back to bed, but of course it would have been better if that whole headmaster thing hadn’t come up.

In the evening, Larissa looked at the clock and called Nathanael Lora, “Time for a bath.”

“You go ahead and wash.” Nathanael Lora just happened to have an incoming cell phone call at this time, he glanced at the incoming call and replied to Larissa absentmindedly.

Larissa gave him a puzzled look, he had recently taken to showering with him, but today he went to let her shower first. She saw the caller ID of the cell phone he had held out and it was vaguely Ewenny, just for a moment.

Larissa turned and went into the bathroom before Nathanael Lora scratched her phone open to answer it.

Larissa, who had just gone into the bathroom, realized that she had forgotten her pajamas and came back out, hearing Nathanael Lora speaking into the phone on the other end, “Got it, I’ll be back tomorrow, don’t you worry.”

With those words, Nathanael Lora hung up.

He put away his cell phone and turned to look in the direction of the bathroom and saw Larissa standing right in front of the bathroom door, he smiled and walked over to her, “Were you waiting for me to go over and wash?”

“Who called?” Larissa wondered, or maybe she’d already guessed, she’d seen it in Nathanael Lora’s perverse reaction.

She was waiting for him to be honest with her, to talk to her, but instead she heard Nathanael Lora saying, “Something at work, someone you don’t know.”

Is that right?

She hoped he wasn’t lying to her, but she had clearly caught a glimpse of the caller ID when his cell phone had called earlier.

“Let’s go shower first.” Nathanael Lora pulled Larissa into the shower, and as if he was afraid she wouldn’t believe him, and in order to fulfill his lie, he continued, “I’ve been away for a few days, and I’ve had a lot of things piling up at work. You know, I’m helping out at my dad’s company, and it was an employee of the company, my secretary, who called me just now and told me to go back and take care of my work, so I’ll be back tomorrow.”

Nathanael Lora finished these words, and did not see Larissa answered a word, just watched her drooping eyelids, the light of the eyes in the bottom of her eyes did not have a trace of light, faint, could not see a trace of emotion.

“Not happy?” Nathanael Lora kissed the corner of her lips, “I’ll be back when I’m done with my business.”

After all, he was still thinking of proposing here, and he got the card from her as well, so it’s just as well that this time he’ll go back to take care of things and pick out a big diamond ring for her to come back with.
