“By the way, I watched the news today. Mark was interviewed and he implied that you wanted to take the Langdon Group’s property.”
Marina thought of Mark’s face on TV and wanted to rush over and rip him to shreds. It was disgusting.
Ryder didn’t say anything. He gently brushed the hair around Marina’s ears. Today, they were out on a date, so they could relax and forget all those things. He wanted to forget about the problems for a while.
They took the elevator from the underground garage up to the top floor. Ryder showed his VIP card, and then they were taken to a VIP theater. The theater staff brought Coke and popcorn.
“This is going to be great!”
Marina was very excited because she had always wanted to see a movie. For years, she had loved these fantasy movies and was fascinated by the scenes.
“Yes. It’s fun.”
So many things had happened recently. When women got pregnant, their personalities changed a lot, and it was not good for the baby. Ryder chose to bring Marina to see the movie to adjust her emotions.
“I like monkeys.”
Marina stuffed popcorn into her mouth. She remembered that when she was in college she ordered Coke and popcorn every time she saw a movie.
After graduation, she had been staying up late for work. She often worked late and rarely even slept, so she hardly ever went to the movies.
After entering the book, Marina thought long and hard about these complex relationships. She never relaxed.
“Do you want to live forever?”
This was the most classic part of the movie. All the banshees wanted to suck the essence of men to live forever.
“You can marry a man, or eat him.”
Marina laughed. She suddenly remembered that this was a quote she had written on a social networking site before.
“Okay.” Ryder held out an arm and narrowed his eyes. “Eat me. You will not only live forever, but you will be happy forever.”
“Really?”
Marina rolled up Ryder’s shirt. She opened her mouth, but she just nibbled gently on his arm.
“What’s wrong?”
Ryder raised his eyebrows and retracted his arm, staring at Marina.
“Your arm doesn’t have much meat on it.”
Marina said casually. She was fascinated by the movie. The movie was based on a fantasy story and added a lot of new funny plots, so it could immediately motivate the audience’s emotions.
She looked at the pig’s snout and laughed for a long time. She ate popcorn while watching the movie.
“I have a lot of meat on me. So you can eat it when we get home.”
In the darkness, Ryder smiled and rubbed Marina’s hair.
“Where?”
Marina turned her head. Ryder was in great shape with a hard layer of muscle on his body, so she couldn’t bite him.
“You tell me.”
Ryder subconsciously lowered his head, so Marina understood what he meant.
“That’s dirty! How could you…”
Marina’s face turned red. The lights in the cinema were dim, so he couldn’t see her face, but she tried to hide anyway.
She could never win over Ryder.
Marina never thought Ryder would be like this. Every time he said something nasty, Marina thought, “I didn’t think you’d be such a leading man!”
She was fated to lose to him.
“Why not? We’re a couple.”
Ryder whispered. Marina was shocked. He kept holding back because he was afraid of hurting the two babies in her belly. Marina was beautiful and he slept with her in his arms every day, so it was torture for him.
Although the babies in her belly were important, Ryder was still a little jealous. He felt that Marina’s mind was not on him.
Love had a lot to do with making love. How could they have any affection if they were separated for long periods of time?
Ryder never shied away from his needs.
“As a wife, you have a responsibility to meet your husband’s needs.”
Ryder said without hesitation. Marina was inexperienced, so he decided to start early in order not to compromise the quality of their sex life in the future. He really couldn’t wait any longer!
Marina didn’t want to continue the conversation, so she kept her eyes on the big screen.
Fortunately, there was no one else here. Otherwise, she really would escape.
“Close your eyes,” Ryder said and smiled.
He bent down and kissed Marina’s lips. It was sweet and smelled like popcorn. He took a ring from his suit pocket. It was engraved with their names. When they kissed, he put the ring on Marina’s middle finger.
He would always love her and they would always be together. This was his eternal vow for life.
Ryder thought he was not afraid of death because no one could threaten him, but now he would spend his life protecting Marina.
The movie was almost two hours long. It was 9:00 p. m. when the screening ended. Marina had slept in the afternoon, so she wasn’t sleepy now. She pulled Ryder and asked him if he had other plans.
“Let’s go sing.”
Ryder was embarrassed because he had only planned to take her to the movies.
He had arranged a candlelight dinner, but when he saw that Marina was excited, he couldn’t help but say he would take her singing.
“Great!”
Marina smiled and looked at Ryder. She had never heard him sing before. If he could sing to her, she wanted to hear it.
It was almost New Year’s, so many people wanted a break. The karaoke was fully booked and they weren’t planning on going to a high-end club. They looked for a few karaoke places and finally found a small one. It was simply decorated. The room was clean and didn’t smell like smoke.
“Honey, I’ve never heard you sing before.”
Marina was actually joking.
However, Ryder agreed. He chose a song that few people knew.
“Are you going to Scarborough Fair?”
Ryder’s voice rang out. Marina froze. She closed her eyes and listened carefully. The song seemed to tell a story.
In Europe in the 1950s, a brutal war called young soldiers to leave their homeland and their loved ones. They said goodbye to the girl they loved and jumped into the rolling smoke. In the end, he could not escape the war and was buried in a desolate grave…
