A Mysterious Man

Chapter 173 It Was Called Something

Sunny opens a packet of dried tofu as she talks, only to notice that Kevin giving her a puppy face.

“Why are you looking at me like that?”

Kevin sighs, “I know that you don’t trust my cooking skills…”

By saying this he hopes that Sunny will comfort him a little, but Sunny actually nods repeatedly after

hearing what he said.

“Of course, otherwise why would I buy so many snacks?”

…

“I trust myself,” says Kevin as he rolls up his sleeves. He walks into the kitchen, looking all prepared.

“Are you crazy?”

Sunny mumbles softly and takes a bite of her dried tofu.

She is joking when she says that Kevin’s cooking skill sucks. A few moments later, food is ready to be

served.

She obediently goes to the kitchen to wash her hands under Kevin’s instruction and gets herself a pair

of chopsticks and a bowl. She waits quietly at the dining table.

Kevin first serves a bowl of tofu and vegetable soup.

The tofu is cut into small pieces and the fine pieces from the vegetable float on top of the starchy broth.

Sunny grabs a spoon and takes a sip, “Add some water, it’s a bit salty.”

Kevin follows her instruction and adds some water.

The next dish is the dish that Sunny has been craving for the past few days, a stir-fry bean dish. Kevin

adds some sausage cubes into the dish as well.

Sunny’s eyes sparkle when she sees the dish, she quickly reaches out her chopstick to grab it.

“Be careful, it’s hot.”

Sunny puts the food into her mouth and closes her eyes while she enjoys the food, “This is yuumm…”

She is so busy eating she isn’t talking coherently.

“Good, take your time to enjoy it. I’ll go get you a bowl of rice.”

Kevin feels proud of himself seeing Sunny enjoying his food so happily.

“There’s also some stir-fry shiitake with vegetable, though you shouldn’t eat the shiitake. I also made a

lobster dish, it should be done soon.”

Sunny bites on the chopsticks as she looks up and stares at Kevin. This is the first time that somebody

cooks for her and serving her when the food is ready.

She rubs her belly as she eats and says, “My son, I feel so blissful right now.”

Sunny drinks some of the broth when she is done with the rest of the food. She is now waiting for

Kevin’s lobster dish.

This soup is just okay. This bean dish… Kevin might have poured the whole can of salt in it. She must

remind him tomorrow, that pregnant woman cannot intake too much sodium.

She is lost in her thoughts when Kevin serves up the last dish as if he is serving up a treasure, “Tadah,

here’s the lobster.”

“Where did he learn to talk like this?” says Sunny to herself. She tries to recall and the most probable

person that influences him like this will be Macie.

“My dear, I want to go on my phone…”

Sunny isn’t in a hurry to gobble up the lobster that she has requested. She makes a puppy face and

twitches her nose, just because she wants to go on her phone.

But to her surprise, this act she pulls off that works every time like a charm isn’t working today.

“No, you have to be careful of the radiation from electronic devices. Listen, pregnant women who don’t

pay attention to this might end up with a disfigured child. Disfigured, I’m telling you.”

Sunny has a look of despair in her face as she listens to Kevin’s nagging. She then slowly cups her

hands on her ears. She doesn’t want to listen to his nagging, she doesn’t want to…

But Kevin isn’t going to let her off the hook, “I looked online and also asked Troy about it. I’m telling you

and you should listen, don’t cover your ears…” This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Kevin mentioning Troy gives Sunny an idea, “Hand me your phone, I just want to video call Macie very

briefly.”

Kevin hesitates for a bit after hearing what she says, but in the end, he gives her his phone, “Use mine

and leave it on the table. Turn on the hands-free function and stay as far as you can away from the

phone.”

Sunny patiently follows what he says and then she starts to eat the lobster from her bowl that Kevin

has peeled for her.

“Hi, who is it?”

Troy is the one who picked up the call when the call finally goes through. Sunny is taken aback and she

almost chokes on the lobster, “It’s me, Sunny. Where’s my daughter?”

Troy pauses for a bit and then says, “Macie, your old mother is on the phone. Come get the call.”

Sunny is a bit mad after hearing him referring her as “old mother”, “Troy, who are you calling old?”

Troy isn’t bothered to answer, and Macie is on the phone a few moments later.

“Mom, what’s up?” Sunny feels happy hearing her nice and pure daughter’s voice.

“Have you eaten?”

Sunny asks quietly, “And what are you doing at your stepdad’s place?”

“I just ate. We are watching a movie together at his place right now.”

Sunny thinks it is surprising that Troy is willing to let Macie watches something, she then asks out of

curiosity, “Which movie is it?”

Macie tries to recall, “Let me see… It was called The Golden…”

Sunny is furious when she hears the name of the movie, she tries to control herself and tells Macie,

“Pass the phone to your stepdad.”

“Hey, what…”

Troy hasn’t even finished his sentence and Sunny starts to yell angrily at him, “Troy, what are you

doing? Why are you showing Macie The Golden Lotus? You…”

Kevin who is standing next to Sunny raises his brows when he heard the name The Golden Lotus.

Troy says helplessly, “I’m not showing her that one, this is a parody of The Golden Lotus. Trust me…”

Sunny answers, “I don’t care, turn it off right now! I’m telling you, if I find out that you are doing this

again, you’re dead meat, Troy…”

Under her majesty’s command, Troy the subject unwillingly stops the movie. He then bids adieu and

hangs up the phone.

“Macie, you betrayed me!”

Troy hugs Macie in his arms and ruffles her hair.

Macie tries to break free and says, “Dad, I didn’t betray you, mom just guessed it correctly.”

Troy thinks to himself, “You gave away such a huge hint for the name, your mom would be a bona fide

idiot if she couldn’t guess the name right.”

“Hmph, you are not getting your toy then.”

Macie pouts immediately after hearing him, “Papa…sob…How could you bully me like that?”

Troy put his hand on his forehead helplessly. Why does this girl turn out to be such a little devil?

Sunny tries to calm down after the call. Her breathing makes her chest goes up and down, Kevin who

is looking at Sunny also starts to feel a surge of emotions.

“My dear, I also have that movie. Do you want to watch it with me after the meal?”

Sunny is interested in the offer as she is curious about the movie, “Is it the real one?”

Kevin smiles mischievously and says, “You’ll find out later.”

Sunny sits down idly on the sofa after dinner. Her feet are on the footstool and she is snacking on some

pears.

She rubs her belly as she eats and says, “My belly is getting bigger each day…” She then suddenly

thinks of something and says to herself, “It must be that I have a fast-growing child in my belly, no

wonder…”

Kevin walks out of the kitchen after putting all the dishes into the dishwasher. He hears Sunny talking to

herself and breaks out in laughter.

Sunny sits up straight and says, “Since when did you get here? I didn’t hear you at all, you scared me.”

Kevin tries to hold in his laughter, “Well, you heard me now and I literally just got here.

That’s not wrong. Sunny then lies back down and says, “Where’s the movie, I’m bored…”

She talks while popping the fruits into her mouth. She then bites on the fork.

“Do you really want to watch it?”

Sunny glances at Kevin and says, “We are adults now, what are we afraid of?”

Kevin agrees with her, “Wait a bit, I’ll go look for it.”

Kevin goes into a small room and searches frantically all over the room. After a long time, he finally

walks out with the movie in his hand.

“I’m not sure if this still works. That bastard Troy actually showed my daughter something like this. Next

time I see him I’ll…”

Kevin mumbles as he put the disc into the player, “Dear, can you press the play button?”

Sunny presses the button and the TV display changes. The first thing that is shown is a naked woman

moaning on the bed.

Sunny is startled, she throws the remote control away and covers her eyes.

Kevin laughs heartily seeing her doing that, “My dear, you’re not an adult, you’re still a pure little girl.”

Sunny doesn’t want to admit defeat. She puts down her hand which are covering her eyes, she wants

to prove herself.

As time goes on the movie gets bolder and Sunny’s face gets redder.

Kevin sits completely fine next to her. Sunny is looking at the TV, but Kevin is looking at her.

After who knows how long, Sunny turns her head and stares at Kevin who is next to her. She notices

that he has pitched a tent in his pants.

Sunny is speechless, she feels her back sweating profusely.

But Kevin isn’t going to let her off the hook, “Dear, you were watching too intently…”

Sunny is going to answer him that this is to increase her knowledge about sex.

Luckily her rationality stops her from saying that. She laughs dryly and replies, “I learned something

today.”

Kevin inches closer to her ears and whispers, “Since you’ve learned something today, do you want to

put it in practice?”

Sunny is going to yell at him after hearing him, but she tries to suppress it, “Maybe not this time. We’ll

practice next time, next time.”

Kevin smirks, “Didn’t your teacher ever tell you to strike the iron while it’s hot?”

He holds her hand and squeezes it lightly. He then rubs it gently.

No, my teacher never teaches me that!

Sunny has a lot of things to say in her head to refute Kevin, but her body isn’t acting the way she

wants. Kevin squeezes her hand and put it slowly on his rod.

Sunny jumps when she first touches it.

But then Kevin leaps onto her and says, “Dear, I’m suffering here…Help me release…”

Sunny doesn’t know why it turns out like this, but luckily Kevin still has a tad bit of rationality left in him

and manages to control himself. Otherwise, who knows what will happen?
