Starting with A Divorce by Gloria Warren

Chapter 210

Chapter 210 The Charity Auction
“Wait!” Lainey noticed that something was wrong.
She picked up her spoon, spooned some soup, and put it into her mouth..
“It’s so salty!” She quickly took a swig of water.
“Aisy, Roman is too much.” She slammed her spoon angrily.
“Don’t eat it.” Ainsley could not help but giggle.
Everything went normally after that. Throughout the meal, Roman wore a formulaic smile on his face. On the way back, there was an indescribable sadness and disappointment in Lainey’s eyes.
“See? I told you. He doesn’t like me.”
Ainsley comforted, “Don’t worry. Maybe he’s not ready, or maybe he’s too shocked.”
Lainey returned home absent mindedly. After washing up, she thought about it for a long time before lying in bed and
thinking about what happened at the club that day.
She glanced at her phone and found that it was already eleven o’clock. She closed her eyes and wanted to sleep, yet her
phone rang.
The caller ID almost made her unable to hold her phone. It was Roman.
She quickly picked up, but because she was too nervous, she hung up accidentally. Her heartbeat missed a beat with
the busy tone. In the next second, her phone rang again, and carefully picked it up.
“What are you doing?”
“I… I’m not doing anything.”
He sounded particularly urgent on the phone. He said, “Go downstairs.” And then he immediately hung up the phone.
Lainey looked out through the window, only to see that Roman was downstairs.
She found herself breathless and went downstairs in her pajamas.
Roman was leaning against the car door and smoking. The smoke wrapped around his fingertips and was blown away
by the wind.

The two were utterly quiet. After a long silence, Lainey finally couldn’t help but ask, “Why are you here?”
“The man tonight is your boyfriend?” he asked, not sounding nice at all.
“Yes.” Lainey looked away nervously.
“Since when?” Roman asked her with a crazy look in his eyes. He thought, was it before or after she had sex with me?
“It has nothing to do with you.” Lainey looked at him uneasily.
Roman suddenly grabbed her shoulder and sneered, “Lainey, do you think it has anything to do with me? Do you really not care about that night?”
“It has nothing to do with you,” Lainey repeated and avoided his eyes. Yet she was lying. How could she not care?
She was a girl, a girl who had all kinds of fantasies about love.
· She had fantasized about her first sex, which wasn’t supposed to occur so easily. She had only read about hangovers

in novels, and when it happened to her, she only regretted it.
Of course, there was another reason. The man she lost her virginity to was Roman.
She was puzzled. When they were at Pearl Hotel tonight, he acted like he did not care at all. If so, why was he here?
“Break up.”
“What?” Lainey looked up in shock, her heart beating violently.
Roman said unhappily, “Break up with him.”
“Why?”
“Break up with him now,” Roman said impatiently.
Lainey still remembered Ainsley’s words. “And I’m supposed to do whatever you tell me to do? Why should I?”
Roman grabbed her wrist and said seriously, “Because I am your boyfriend. We have slept together.”
“You…” Lainey blushed. She didn’t expect him to say so directly. “You are so cheeky!”
She shook off Roman’s hand and was about to go home.
Roman stepped forward to stop her. “I’m cheeky? We’ve already had sex.”
He thought, we’ve already had sex. How come you find yourself a boyfriend?
When Roman thought of the man tonight, he was furious.
Lainey lowered her eyes, not daring to look at him. “Let’s just pretend that nothing happened between us. It’s all a misunderstanding…”
Roman sneered, “Misunderstanding? You call that a misunderstanding? You p*ss me off, woman.”
Lainey was speechless. She thought, are you in some sort of drama? Stop acting so overbearing and dramatic!
“You are not an actor. Drop the act.”
Roman said coldly, “Break up with him now. I remember what happened that day clearly. You have to be responsible
for me!”
Lainey looked at Roman’s face and was slightly stunned. She asked calmly and firmly, “So, why are you here? Just tell me to break up with him?”
Perhaps because her eyes were too firm, Roman actually did not know what to say.
He thought, the answer is no, of course. I’m here to ask you if you want to give it a try with me.
But why can’t I just say it out loud? Lainey continued to ask, “Or do you want to be with me? Do you like me? Or are you acting responsible, because we slept together?”
Roman had been silent all this time because even he himself did not know why.
Lainey looked away in disappointment and pushed his hand away. “I am going to rest.”
She entered the door without looking back, leaving Roman behind in a daze.
