A Mysterious Man novel Chapter 156

"Kevin, you keep pinching me and my hands are red."

After getting off the roller coaster, Sunny looks at her red hands and complains. "I don't expect you to be afraid of this...."

Kevin has just recovered. Standing on the ground, he believes he is still a strong man. So, he rests the arms on the hips and says, "I'm not afraid of this! I didn't mean to grab your hand!"

Hearing this, Sunny laughs mischievously. "Why don't we try again?"

Kevin doesn't bother to argue with Sunny. "Aren't you going to take a ride on the Ferris wheel? Don't waste time. Let's go and queue up."

Kevin is afraid, but he pretends to be calm, which amuses Sunny. So, she can't help but laugh out loud. "Alright, alright. You're not afraid of heights."

Kevin shakes his head, "I'm afraid of nothing."

After Kevin finishes, sadness flashes through Sunny's eyes. She quietly glances at Kevin and then replies, "Well."

Kevin consumes that Sunny looks down on him, so he repeatedly emphasizes, "I mean it!"

"I know. Let's go."

"What are you going to do?"

"We are going to take a ride on the Ferris wheel."

Looking at the magnificent Ferris wheel in front of him, Kevin can't help but take a step back. Is this more terrifying than the roller coaster?

"Come on. This isn't scary."

Sunny takes the lead and sits down. Then she invites Kevin with a smile.

Kevin hesitates for a moment. The people behind him have been urging him, so he goes up and sit down opposite Sunny.

"Come on. Don't be afraid. It moves very slowly."

Sunny smiles and comforts Kevin. She knows that he is reluctant to show his fear, so she tries her best to divert his attention.

"Can we see our home from here?"

Hearing this, Kevin curls his lips and replies, "How is that possible? What are you thinking?"

Sunny pouts. "That's why I want you to have a look. How beautiful the scenery we can enjoy from the heights!"

Under the encouragement of Sunny, Kevin sticks his head out and looks around. "Honey, the scenery is very beautiful."

Seeing him relax, Sunny replies, "Yes." Then she concentrates on the outside scenery.

"Honey, are you happy today?"

Sunny glances at Kevin, who seems to be very serious. "Of course, I'm happy."

'Kevin, you have never taken me out for fun.'

If Kevin did not mention it, Sunny wouldn't care. It's good for them to live a peaceful life like this. But since Kevin has done, he prepares to give her a surprise.

While Sunny is watching the scenery outside the window, Kevin sends a text message to Troy. "Pick up Macie after school. We have something to do."

Later, regardless of how Troy will react, Kevin immediately turns off his phone.

Sunny hears the commotion and turns around to ask him what has happened.

"Nothing. The battery of my phone is dead."

Kevin sits beside Sunny. Because of unevenly distributed loads, their carriage sways.

"Don't move. Sit down."

Wrapping her hand around Kevin's waist, Sunny holds his hand with the other one, and carefully helps him to the seat. Then, she mocks. "It's unbelievable that you are so afraid of heights."

Kevin retorts, "I'm not afraid of heights. I'm ... I'm...."

Sunny looks at him expectantly. "What is it?"

"Darling, we can see our home from here."

Kevin cannot provide a plausible explanation, so he diverts Sunny's attention.

Sunny doesn't believe him. "Your performance is poor."

Although Sunny says so, she turns around, sighting the roof of their house.

"It's true. How miraculous!"

Kevin looks at Sunny, feeling that this trip is worthwhile. He hasn't seen Sunny reveal such a girlish expression for a long time.

"Are you happy? If you're, I'll often show you around, okay?"

Kevin's question attracts Sunny's attention. When Kevin asks whether she is happy or not, she blushes.

This surprises Kevin. "Honey, we are married for a long time. Why are you blushing?"

Sunny touches her head. "I don't know why. But when you ask me, I'm joyful."

It is Sunny's true feeling. Ever since her mother left, she has rarely had such a kind of feeling, as if she has been doted on.

She tells Kevin her true feeling. But to her surprise, Kevin snorts. "Do you mean that I haven't done enough?"

Sunny is stunned. After examining Kevin's expression, she carefully asks, "Have you ever made a pet of me?"

...

Kevin is annoyed, so he savagely says, "You just wait and see."

'I will prove to you.'

Although Kevin means to be considerate, Sunny still feels somewhat strange about Kevin's threating words.

Fortunately, the Ferris wheel reaches the top at this time. Sunny looks at the buildings, which seem to become smaller and smaller, and smiles. "Kevin, I think I have seen them before...."

Before she finishes, Kevin kisses her.

When she separates with Kevin, she says with glowing cheeks, "I hear that when the couple kiss at the highest point, they can be together forever."

Perhaps Kevin is shocked by her or what, he just looks at her without moving.

Sunny thinks that Kevin is sick, so she touches his head. "You don't have a fever."

"Kevin, you..."

Sunny turns around again, intending to say something to Kevin. Kevin hugs her waist and kisses her.

Kevin's kiss is domineering and...

Sunny can't think of any other adjectives. After a long time, she only comes up with 'domineering'. Because of oxygen deficit, her mind goes blank.

Sunny doesn't know when Kevin leaves her. By the time she regains her senses, the staff has stared at her for a long time.

"Darling, let's get off."

Kevin tugs at the corner of Sunny's clothes with a mischievous smile, signaling for her to move.

Only then does Sunny feel that she blushes scarlet. "Why don't you remind me?"

After she gets off the carriage, she secretly complains against Kevin for a long time, consuming that Kevin wants to tease her.

Kevin returns like a wronged man, "Honey, I've been calling you for a long time, but you didn't hear me, so that staff had to push you."

"Why didn't you push me? You did it on purpose."

Hearing this, Kevin whispers in her ear, "I just didn't want to disturb you."

'Don't try to fool me."

"I don't care. I want to go home. Macie is still waiting for us."

Kevin then coughs softly. "I've already told Troy to pick Macie up. We have other things to do."

Sunny asks curiously, "What else are we going to do?"

Kevin returns confidently. "Let's go for dinner."

...

"It's not dark yet. It's too early for dinner."

Kevin continues mysteriously, "Let's go. I have a surprise for you."

Sunny has to follow him. Then they go to the nearest mall for dinner.

Kevin sees a jewelry shop not far away, so he makes an excuse. "Honey, do you want to go to the bathroom?"

If he didn't mention, Sunny wouldn't feel anything. But he does, Sunny feels an urge to urinate.

"Yes. Will you help me with the things?"

Kevin happily receives them. "Go, I'll wait for you here."

After watching Sunny enter the bathroom, Kevin rushes to the jewelry shop. "Waiter, I want to buy a ring."

Noticing his extravagant dress, the waiter returns politely, "Sir, what style do you want? Do you buy it for yourself?"

Hearing this, Kevin looks at the waiter in disgust. "Do you think I'm mad?"

Kevin turns around, finding that Sunny hasn't come yet, so he urges. "Hurry up. Show me the most expensive ring in the shop. I want to give it to my wife."

After hearing the word "wife", the waiter understands that this handsome guy is married. Thus, she goes to fetch the most expensive ring in the shop with a sigh.

"You like this one, don't you?"

Kevin glances over and picks the brightest one. Then, he puts away the men's ring and asks the waiter to wrap up the women's one.

"Sir, do I need to help you wrap up the men's one?"

Kevin shakes his head and wears the ring on his hand.

...

"Sir, this is your ring. Do you want to punch the card?"

Kevin hands out a limited-edition black card and says, "Please."

When the waiter sees the card, her eyes light up. Unfortunately, the handsome man has married.

After paying the bill, Kevin put a small box in his pocket. Then, he turns around and sights Sunny, so he leaves with the card.

When he walks to the bathroom, Sunny happens to come out and her eyes lights up.

"Where have you been? I'm looking for you."

Kevin smiles somewhat embarrassedly. "After waiting for you for a long time, I walked around to search for a good restaurant.

Sunny does not doubt him and nods. "Then have you found the one?"
