Chapter 178: The Ice Cream Guy

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Michael pushed my hand off his chest and looked out the window in silence.

Despite his somber demeanor, Michael still looked like a statue. He smelled so good it made me want to drown, and unlike the usual, he now smelled like he was wet, with the low pressure of a rainy day.

I pursed my lips. “If you don’t want to leave, don’t do it for me.”

Michael finally spoke, but it was something else entirely. “What’s going on with you and that ice cream guy?”

I thought for a moment and finally understood why he hadn’t spoken to me.

Michael’s expression was neutral, but I could hear the anger in his voice. He was angry about it. I couldn’t help but smile. I knew I shouldn’t have laughed when my mate was still mad, but I felt genuine joy.

I had wondered if this was why Michael had pulled me away in anger.

But I had thought he would care about something related to Joanna, and now it seemed that he had been upset because of me and that I was far more important to him than her. The only person he wanted to possess completely was me, which made me feel giddy.

“We have a past,” I said in a nasty manner as I once again touched the muscles on his chest with my palm. This man belonged to me, and this feeling was great.

I wanted to rip off his clothes now and kiss his chest.

“What past?” Michael said gruffly.

He turned his head, his eyes filled with unconcealable anger.

“Well, he’s a cute boy. I mean, many girls take the long way around to see him and buy ice cream from him,” I said, winking at Michael.

Michael looked at me with a warning in his eyes. He reached out and grabbed my wrist, which was touching his chest. “You said you only had a past with Robert.”

I couldn’t help laughing. “Hahaha! I’m just saying I used to go to his shop to buy ice cream, but I didn’t take a detour. I took classes in the teaching building next door.”

“That’s it?” Michael looked at me skeptically.

“Yes, that’s it.” I thought about Garrett asking me out. I suddenly felt a little guilty. “Maybe he has expressed his feelings for me before, but I dare say he said that to every girl who comes to his shop to buy ice cream.”

“He asked you out before?” Michael narrowed his eyes dangerously. “You just said you thought he was cute.”

I now felt that I might have shot myself in the foot. “He may be cute, but I have an impeccable mate with me right now. He smells so delicious that I can’t help but jump on him the moment I see him. Everyone pales in comparison to him.”

At critical moments, any lie could be exposed. Only flattery would not be seen through. No one disliked flattery, not even a Lycan Prince, who was a willful and arrogant royal.

I saw Michael’s face visibly soften, but he kept a cold expression and said, “Whom are you talking about? I remember you had a mate named Robert.”

He was trying to get more compliments from me.

I was stunned for a moment. Then, I saw a playful smile on his face.

Michael leaned over and tugged on my seatbelt, then whispered in my ear, “You can think about how to answer me. Tell me when we get to our new home. If the answer doesn’t satisfy me, I’ll punish you.”

What was he talking about?

My eyes widened, and I felt like he had regained control of me. This was completely different from the couple-moment I had envisioned.

By the time I followed Michael through the hotel’s front door, I hadn’t figured out how to answer Michael’s question. It wouldn’t be hard to compliment Michael simply, but it would be hard to compliment him without allowing him to make a fool of me. Unfortunately, I couldn’t think of a way to defeat him.

I thought about it and decided I should surrender and let him do whatever he wanted. It was just us, after all. The last time Michael asked me out, it was just a date. As long as I was with him, there was no real punishment for me.

Michael opened the door and turned to let me in as I was muttering to myself.

I thanked him in a low voice, and as soon as I entered, I was stunned by the room’s splendor.
