My Husband, Warm The Bed

Chapter 1987

"My ability to act coy?" Sierra said inwardly. She had no idea from where did his temper sneak in again. However, she knew that somehow everything she had done seemed to piss him off. If he didn't like her, then why did he come looking for her? Did he have nothing else better to do?

She smiled and said, "Mr. Silas, since you don't like being around me, then let's not meet anymore in the future, nor have any meals together. I'm afraid your appetite will take a nosedive when you see me."

"You shouldn't say that, Sierra." Rosie handed one of the plates to Sierra and said, "Every couple gets into fights, but you must know your boundaries. Some words are too hurtful, and you shouldn't just say everything that comes to your mind."

Sierra didn't make a sound. She wasn't a fan of others poking their noses in her affairs. Besides, she was not close to Rosie either so she found her rather meddlesome.

Rosie didn't seem to register in her mind that Sierra was displeased so she added while serving the other plate on the table, "Sierra, Johan loves you so much. You must cherish him. It's really hard to find such a devoted man, especially such a handsome one."

Johan was indeed handsome and devoted, but not to her.

How could Rosie think that Johan loved her?

Upon hearing this, Sierra's interest was piqued. She queried, "Rosie, how do you know that he loves me?"

Her question was directed to Rosie, but her eyes were on Johan. It wasn't because she was expecting anything, but rather she wanted to see if Johan would blow up from being misunderstood that he loved her.

"Everyone can see it." Rosie smiled and added, "You two have been together since college and it's already been a few years since you graduated, yet you two are still here together to eat at my store. What else do you need to prove that?"

Johan's expression did not change when he heard Rosie's words so Sierra could not read his true thoughts.

She looked toward Rosie and said, "I'll let you in on a little secret. We're here for our farewell dinner. We will go our separate ways after this meal and neither of us will have anything to do with each other anymore."

"Touchwood!" Rosie spluttered. "Sierra, I just told you that you can fight, but don't ever run your mouth with vindictive words. Not all wounds can be healed."

"I agree hands down. Some wounds just can't be healed." Sierra smiled. She and Johan had already been scarred way too much, and there was no way to fix it then.

"It's good that you agree. Be careful of what you say from now on. You guys should hurry up and dig in, the food is getting cold." After that, Rosie returned to the kitchen.

Sierra picked up the taco and took a bite before chewing on it slowly.

To tell the truth, the food there wasn't that good so Sierra couldn't understand why Johan liked it so much.

He used to go there often when he was a student but he still did so even after he had graduated years ago. Wasn't he sick of it? Sierra pondered. Or was there some other reason?

Sierra tried hard to mull over it, and eventually she recalled something.

Many years ago, on the day they first met each other, the four of them ate dinner at that very store. She didn't like tacos, but she still ordered one for herself.

Johan was the one who treated them that night, so although she didn't like the tacos, she still finished the whole thing. She even lied and agreed with Miranda when she said that was the best taco place they had ever been to.

Sierra could still recall the satisfaction and happiness on Miranda's face at that time, as well as the tenderness and sweetness in her eyes when she looked at Johan.

At that time, Sierra felt like she had lost her mind for agreeing to go out to eat with them as all she could see was them showing their affection for each other.

It seemed that Johan often went to that taco place because of that woman who he could never forget.

Sierra never had a great appetite. Coupled up with such an unpleasant memory, she felt full after just her second bite.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

She put down the taco while Johan was still eating. After swallowing the contents in his mouth, he looked up at her and said, "Didn't you say that you were hungry. Why did you stop eating already?"

She was starving, but at the thought of him and that woman, her appetite flew out the window in an instant.

She couldn't say what she was thinking so she forced a perfunctory smile and said, "I'm on a diet, so I can't eat too much at night."

"Look at how thin you are. You don't need to lose any more weight." Johan thought so in his mind, but what he said was, "Eat more." "I'm good. You can go ahead."

Since Sierra refused to eat, Johan stopped eating too.

He looked at her and said, "Miranda is coming back tomorrow. She wants me to pick her up at the airport."

"Oh, congrats then!" Sierra thought that she had completely moved on from this relationship but her heart still couldn't help but throb in pain the moment she heard that name.

Miranda Attwood!

That was a name that Sierra hated to hear the most in her life. It was a hurdle that she could never overcome.

"Congrats?" Johan narrowed his eyes and looked at Sierra with a cold face.

Sierra clenched her fists and

gathered herself before replying with a forced smile, "Now that she is back, we should get the divorce done as soon as possible. I don't want to hold on to something that doesn't belong to me."

"Something?" Johan sneered. He was that close to crushing the taco in his hands at that moment.

He looked at Sierra with his bloodshot eyes, looking like a wild beast that was ready to devour her at any time.

Frightened by his appearance, Sierra gulped. She wanted to flee, but her legs were too weak to comply. She could only sit still and said, "Well, you- you-you..."

She wanted to say something, but she was so afraid that her words blanked out.

"Sierra, so I'm just an object to you, huh?" Johan suddenly sprung to his feet, kicked his chair and left.

That wasn't what she meant but was she even supposed to explain it to him?

Sierra glanced at him but did not

have the nerves to catch up to him. She took some time to calm herself down and was about to leave. Before getting up from her seat, she realized that she had not paid for the meal so she said, "Bill please."

Rosie came over from the counter and said with a smile, "You don't have to pay for it. Johan pays it monthly."

"Monthly?" Sierra was baffled as to why Rosie would agree to monthly payments when she was just running a small business. "Does Johan come here often?" she asked.

Rosie nodded and said, "As long as he's in town, he will come here almost every night."

Upon receiving such an answer, Sierra found things even more unusual.

In the past, she would always find ways to track him down and tail him whenever she could but why didn't she know that he frequented that shop almost every day?
