SWNOVELS Chapter 39
Chapter 39
Giselle was about to ask Kila why she thought Hymes was different from other men. Suddenly, she received a call from the takeaway, “Hello, your dinner has been delivered. Can you please open the door?”
Giselle was surprised, “I didn’t order takeaway.”
“But you placed an order at our restaurant.”
“When did I… Which restaurant?”
Hymes guessed that Hymes might have ordered dinner for her. Giselle felt so happy to think of that.
Kila was right. Hymes was indeed different from other men. At least when he was too busy to cook, he would still think of ordering dinner for her.
He was caring and meticulous.
At this time, the delivery man said the name of the restaurant. Giselle was stunned when she heard it.
Giselle knew about this restaurant. It was very close to her home. If someone ordered a meal from this restaurant, it would soon be delivered to Giselle’s home.
It was just that the per capita consumption of this restaurant was almost 140 dollars.
Giselle went there once when meeting with a client before. After eating, she sighed that she would not want to go to such an expensive restaurant if she hadn’t been with the customer together.
But it might be because of its high price, the food there tasted very good.
Hymes ordered her such expensive food just for a casual dinner. Giselle couldn’t help but feel it was a waste of money.
“I’m not at home now. Can I return it?”
“I’m sorry. The food has been paid, so you can’t refund it.”
“OK. Can you hang it on the doorknob for me, please?”
The neighborhood of Giselle’s was very safe. There was also a video doorbell outside the door. Under normal circumstances, no one would come to take things hanging on other people’s doors.
Giselle hung off the phone. Her feeling was complicated, “Isn’t Hymes too wasteful?”
“Not at all. He wants to order takeaway for you, so he is willing to spend money! He doesn’t care about the price!”
“His salary is not very high…”
“But he is not stingy at all when he buys things for you!” Kila praised Hymes, “This kind of man is rare these days. Don’t let him go!”
Giselle shook her head, “But I should talk to him. If we want to buy a house, we will have to pay the mortgage. We must save some money from now on.
“Besides, it costs more to raise a child in Reywing… Hymes is probably used to living alone now and doesn’t think of the future and family. He is a married man now. He must change his mindset.”
Kila repeatedly sighed. “You think too much. You even think about the kids! Come on! You are boring.”
Giselle blushed, “I just think about it casually. It is inevitable to think about these things when you get married.”

Chapter 39
Kila was extremely surprised. “A week ago, I would never have thought that you would get married in such a hurry. The most important thing is that you married such a good man.
“I didn’t expect this, too… I think Hymes is pretty good. If my next boyfriend is another scumbag like Mickey, I’d rather be with Hymes!”
At least she could have expectations for the future when she was with Hymes.
Giselle thought for a while, “I have to ask Hymes.”
The call was answered quickly. Hymes‘ voice was very low on the phone, “What’s wrong?”
“I got the dinner you ordered for me. But I’m out today with Kila. You saw her last time. I asked the delivery guy to put the dinner on the doorknob. Remember to take it home if you return carlier than I do.
Hymes smiled, “Okay. What time do you plan to go home? Do you need me to pick you up?”
“No need. I will go back after dinner with Kila. It won’t be too late…. What are you doing?”
It seemed so quiet over there.
“In a meeting.”
“A meeting?” Giselle was anxious, “You answered my call during a meeting?! Be careful! Your boss will find out and deduct. your salary!”
Hymes couldn’t help but laugh at her joke. His laughter was low and hoarse, “The boss is not here, so he won’t deduct my salary.”
“Go back to have the meeting! See you at home later!”
“See you. Be careful on the way home.”
After hanging up the phone. Hymes‘ falcon–like eyes exuded coldness. He swept across the people in the meeting room. lightly, “Go on. Why are you all looking at me?”
The subordinate who was reporting work quickly lowered his head and continued.
Today, almost the entire senior management of Pino Capital was in the meeting.
But it was the first time everyone saw the big boss answering the phone during a meeting.
He even started chatting with the person on the other end of the phone in a gentle and sweet tone.
It was incredible!
It seemed the meeting he had ordered to lead didn’t matter at all.
Everyone’s eyes couldn’t help but stay on the ring on Hymes‘ finger. It seemed that Mr. Giles‘ marriage was a certainty….
They had a meeting at this late hour today because that one of their European business partners had a problem.
Earlier today, Hymes had already lost his temper. Standing before him could make everyone dare not take a loud breath.
However, everyone keenly felt that the boss‘ mood seemed not as scary after the phone call.
Knowing that Hymes was considering buying a car, Kila was even more surprised, “Can he afford it?”
I don’t know about this, but he said he already has a plan. He is a local, so maybe his parents will help him buy the car.”

Chapter 39
“It seems that Hymes‘ family background is not bad.”
“I didn’t ask specifically.”
You really don’t know anything about him!”
Giselle took it for granted. “He didn’t ask me either. Maybe we haven’t reached the point where we need to know everything about each other so well.”
Giselle knew that Hymes‘ income should be Okay. Otherwise, he would not be able to support the car’s consumption.
“In fact, the insurance industry is very profitable. With his appearance, he should earn a little more than others.”
“That’s true,” Giselle said in retrospect, “No one can say no to that handsome face.“,
“You found a treasure!”
The two chatted for a while. After eating dinner, Giselle took the subway home.
On the way, she received a call from Hymes and knew he had arrived early.
When Giselle arrived at their apartment building, Hymes was still waiting for her downstairs.
Knowing that she was coming back, he had been waiting there early.
Giselle stepped up her pace and approached him. She grinned and muttered, “You don’t get bored!”
“Not at all. If you need to work overtime in the future, I will either pick you up from the office or wait for you downstairs. Is
that OK?”
“Okay, Okay! Got it!” Giselle smiled sweetly.
Seeing the dinner Hymes had ordered after returning home, Giselle felt sorry, “It’s a pity. I didn’t taste such an expensive dinner.”
Giselle looked at Hymes seriously, “You can’t be so extravagant in the future!”
“Is this extravagance?”
Hymes looked innocent. Seeing his handsome face, Giselle couldn’t get angry.
She could only sigh, “Of course! How much money do you earn a month? Even if you earn a salary of two thousand or three thousand dollars a month, you can’t spend it like this! It’s so expensive for just one meal…”
“Okay, I won’t spend so much on buying a meal in the future.”
Giselle half–jokingly said, “If you don’t mind, you can hand over your salary to me in the future. I can keep you from spending money indiscriminately.”
Before getting married, the two of them had agreed they would not interfere with each other’s property after marriage, so Giselle expected Hymes would reject her..
However, Hymes agreed very readily, “No problem! From next month on, I will hand over my salary to you.”
