Ex-Husband Wants Badly To Resume Their Marriage

Chapter 429: It's Only Excessive Internal Heat 

All the way out of the neighborhood, Ruben Allyson finally stopped.

He looked back, lips pressing gently against each other.

Soon, Matthew Gray walked over, "Mr.Proctor says that Miss Allyson will stay here for a few days.So don't visit the young master for now"

Ruben replied, "I know. If he had known Sharon was here, he wouldn't have come over today.

After Matthew Gray left, Ruben Allyson's phone vibrated, and he took it out to see that Jameson had sent him the address.

Ruben reached his hand into the pocket and took out the long dead headphones.

The past few days had been busy for him, that he had not returned them to Giana.

After a few seconds of silence, Ruben dialed Giana's number, "Are you home?"

Giana Clarke said, "Just got back.Why? By the way, I will happen to be near your school tomorrow.You think I can come and get my headphones?"

"No.I'll bring them over to you now."

Giana Clarke: "What?"

Before she could have the chance to refuse, the phone was already hung up.

Giana looked at the darkened screen and couldn't help but widen her eyes.

'This kid is not actually coming over.Right?'

Giana hurriedly put down the phone as well as the fried chicken in her hand, and ran into the bathroom to look at the mirror.

She had washed up and changed into her pajamas already! Giana ran out the bathroom into the bedroom, and found a dress to put on.

She sat down at the dressing table again to fuss with her makeup.

After about forty minutes, she finally finished, and before she could even breathe a sigh of relief, she heard the doorbell.

Giana thought it was the barbecue she had ordered and thus ran over to it on her bare feet, "Coming ....."

The moment she opened the door and saw the person standing outside, her whole body froze.

Ruben asked, "May I come in?"

Almost subconsciously, Giana moved a little to the side to give him room to enter.

She had thought, by "bring them over" he meant "bring them downstairs" and thus she could go down to get it.

How did he know the exact address? Ruben passed her and walked into the living room.

When he stopped walking, Giana finally reacted, remembering that there was still a big mess on the dining room table that had not been cleaned up.

She closed the door and dashed to clean up the trash while laughing dryly, "I haven't had much food all day today, that's why Ruben's lips curved, "You're not gonna finish it?"

"Huh?"

Ruben's eyes fell on the fried chicken box and continued, "There's still plenty left."

Giana bowed her head, feeling a little annoyed, "No......I'm not gonna eat it.I actually don't have a big appetite.This is just to relieve the craving.I'm already full."

Giana cleaned up the table quickly.She looked at the fried chicken in her hand, and couldn't let go of it.She put it in the refrigerator while Ruben was not paying attention.

When she came out, she realized that she hadn't even offered him a single cup of water.

So she asked, "What would you like to drink?"

"Anything."

Giana looked in the fridge and took a soft drink to him, "Is this okay?"

Ruben nodded, then took her headphones out of the pocket and handed them over.

Giana reached for them, but shuddered when her fingertips touched his palm.

She said, "Do you have a cold? Why are you burning?"

Ruben said, "No.Just excessive internal heat."

She coughed, took the headphones and placed them smoothly on the dining table.

For a moment, the room fell into silence.

Giana opened her mouth but did not know what to say, then simply gave up on herself.

Ruben withdrew his hand, "I should go now.Rest well."

Giana nodded almost instantly, "Yes.Take care on your way back"

Ruben licked his lips and turned to the door.

The bell rang.

Giana couldn't help but stare at the door, as if it were some great enemy.

She didn't have time to think, so she lifted her hand and grabbed Ruben, "I suddenly feel sorry for you to leave empty-handed since it's your first time visiting my place.Why don't you go in and try the bathroom out?"

"What?"

Giana pushed him into the study, "Also, I have a lot of books here, so if you see something you like, just choose a few and take them with you."

After successfully pushing Ruben to the study, Giana ran to the door again, and said to the delivery man, "Sorry.I don't want this.Just eat it"

The delivery guy was confused, "I'm not supposed to.."

"It's okay.It's okay.You're welcome.You've worked hard too"

"Thank you for your kindness, but I can't eat spicy food."

She silently took the bag over, "Thank you.Take care"

When Giana returned to the living room with the bag, Ruben had already come out of the study.

She didn't want to pretend anymore, "Haha.The delivery is right on time.Do you want to join?"

"Sure."

Giana regretted asking immediately.She didn't expect him to accept the offer.She put the barbecue on the table and went to the fridge to get the fried chicken out again.

Ruben sat across from her and pulled out his phone, "Anything else you want to eat?"

Giana choked on her drink and waved her hand, "No.That's enough"

After a long day of shooting, she was tired and hungry, and she hadn't even taken a bite of the fried chicken when she got a call from him.

And with all the fuss, she got even hungrier.

She felt no need to protect her actress's perfect image anymore and started eating in front of him.

Halfway through the meal, she noticed that he hadn't eaten much, so she put down the barbecue in her hand, feeling a little guilty, "Why are you not eating?" Upstodatee from Novel(D)ra/m/a.O(r)g

"Lam afraid that you won't have enough if I eat." She choked again.

'What a bad impression I had made on this kid: Giana tried to get a drink, but realized that she had already finished her own can.” Ruben opened the one in front of him with one hand and pushed it over to her.

"Thanks."

Giana tilted her head and took several sips, feeling much more comfortable.

After a few seconds, Giana suddenly said, "How did you know my address?"Ruben replied slowly, "

Jameson Proctor told me.

Giana clenched her teeth.

'Shameless businessman!'

Ruben looked at the time, "You go ahead and eat.I should be going now."

Giana said, "Then you take care on your way"

"Well.I'll still send you a message when I get back"

"Well that's not......"

Ruben got up, "See ya"

Giana walked him to the door and waved at him, "Bye."

He nodded, "Good night."

Closing the door, Giana Clarke returned to the table, looking at the half finished drink in front of her, and the image of that bony hand that had opened the can not long ago came to mind.

Giana hurriedly shook her head to put this ridiculous idea out of her mind.

'He is just a college student, only nineteen years old.What am I thinking?'
