Chapter 21 Dana stared at his earnest , staid expression and couldn't help chuckling , because that was what he had said to Aydan last time . " Is that a grin I see on your face ? " " No. And I'm not laughing at you . " She braced herself and checked her phone to see that it was four o'clock in the morning . " Mr. Graham , it's late already. Why don't you go back and rest ? I can manage ... " " Don't be a hero . " He lowered his eyes, interrupted her words , put away those laboratory tests and bills on the table with his long fingers , and softly said , " Let's go home together ." Dana knew that right now , she should remind Omari that Sunrise Bay was his home , and her going there ought not to be called going home . Yet she couldn't utter a word after she opened her mouth . " Just this once " , she said to herself . She wanted to indulge herself just once to covet a moment of tenderness given by him Chapter 21 that should have belonged to another woman . " OK . Let's go home . " *** Perhaps because he was too exhausted the day before , Omari didn't wake up at six o'clock for the first time . When Dana opened her eyes , lying next to her , he was still asleep . His hand rested gently on her waist , and he leaned sideways . By chance , when the curtains were blown , the sun would shine on his deep face . The scene was so beautiful that she couldn't bear to look away . She thought , " How wonderful it would be if I were the one he loved ? " Such a thought came out of nowhere , making Dana freeze , and then she rushed out of bed . She thought , " How dare I even have such a thought ? Sure enough , one easily gets ahead of oneself when given something ." She washed her face with cold water in the bathroom and put Chapter 21 all these thoughts she shouldn't have had behind her , and then went to the kitchen and was about to make Omari breakfast . She ought to thank him no matter what . Omari woke up just as the pot with soup was boiling . He was still wearing his inky silk robe . His shaggy , unkempt hair made him less fierce and more approachable . She relaxed a little and smiled at him , " Breakfast will be ready in a minute . How do you like your fried eggs ? " " Medium . " Instead of sitting down like a male chauvinist , he went to the kitchen to help her bring out the heated toast . Suddenly , Dana accidentally got burned by the heat . She gasped subconsciously and then tried to hold it back . She didn't want to give Omari the impression that she couldn't do anything right , even details like this . The soup was ready . She filled two plates and walked out only to realize that Omari was nowhere to be seen . " Mr. Graham ? " " Don't you think that's the wrong way of addressing when we're at home ? " Chapter 21 Omari showed up out of the blue with a medical kit in his hand . Dana was stunned for a second and then smiled , " I presume that it's OK ... " She didn't know what she could call him other than Mr. Graham . " You may call me Omari when we're at home . " He strode toward her . " Give me your hand ." Dana said nothing and did as he said . As he pulled her hand back and forth to check , she saw that there were now two blisters where her hand had been burned . " It might hurt a little . Bear with me . " Dana shook her head and tried to pull her scalded hand back . " It's fine . It's just a minor injury ." She used to get burns like this all the time when she worked at some kebab shop before , and she never cared even about injuries worse than this . " Dana , can you be good ? " He said and then bowed his head to attend to her wound . Chapter 21 Dana seemed to have sensed some affection and helplessness from his tone . She thought , " No way . That can't be right . I must have heard him wrong . Or he has been treating me like I'm Kate's substitute again . Anyway , his tenderness never belongs to me . " It was the first time they had sat down together for breakfast . Dana was a little distracted , as her mind was occupied by the project with Prosper Company . Although Daven had been sent to the police , and she was the victim , the incident increased the difficulty of cooperation between the two companies . She knew that from now on , Prosper Company would give her a hard time even more . Until Omari finished his meal and wiped his thin lips elegantly , she was still troubled by the matter , frowning . She barely ate her soup .
