His Beautiful Addiction-Chapter 364 - I’m Jealous About You
"why are you so cute?"
Diana smiled sweetly;
"Am I?"
Michael's eyes fell to her lips as she bit her lower lip, his Adam's apple bobbled,
"Irresistibly…"
His voice became low and husky. Her cheeks blushed when she saw the way he looked at her.
His hands inched down and caressed her neck, pulling her close, she watched his head tilt to the side but just when he was about to kiss her, her stomach grumbled.
Michael exhaled, and stood upright,
"Let's go eat."
Diana laughed as he held her hand and walked them to the dining.
"wow!"
She exclaimed, her eyes scanning the dishes on the table,
Michael opened a casserole and her eyes met a large juicy roast chicken,
Another plate held freshly baked mac and cheese,
She helped him open the others,
Tomato and basil rice, strawberry salad with avocado, and the wine bottles.
"this is… just wow… are we celebrating something?"
"Is it too much?"
Michael looked at the table.
"No, not at all, it's perfect. Thank you. But… when did you get off work to prepare all these?" 𝒇𝒓eewe𝒃𝑛𝒐𝘃𝒆𝚕.co𝘮
"Um… I skipped work today,"
"Aw, you didn't have to. You're so sweet, thank you."
Diana smiled as she took a plate to serve herself.
"Your friends say you don't like to cook."
Michael placed a chunk of meat on his plate,
"because I don't like to cook."
"But you cook for me." She bit her fork with a smile.
"I'm in love with you. That's why, now let's eat."
Diana laughed when she heard him,
"say that again I want to hear it. "
Michael glared at her and continued eating,
"Uh, please, just once, uh?"
"I love you."
She grinned,
"One more time,"
She stretched her leg and touched his, sliding it up his calf,
"You're turning me on, sweetheart."
His eyes stared at her smolderingly, his Adam's apple shook and she instantly dropped her leg, but before she could, Michael grabbed it and placed it back on his thigh,
His hand caressing it.
Diana curled her toes as her face burned, she sucked on her fork.
"Leave it here."
She swallowed, he was still caressing her.
"Let's eat."
She nodded and cut a piece of meat,
"Our movie is premiering in three weeks time."
"I heard."
"Oh…"
"Yeah, and I've been getting many movie offers recently. Some producers even came to the company."
Diana choked on her meal.
Coughing, she gulped some wine. She had suspected this would happen but she didn't think it would be this soon.
"Sorry, have some water."
Michael said, pouring water into a cup for her.
Diana drank a little. When she was fine, she turned to him,
"did you accept any?"
"I don't know… I don't want to be an actor, but I think I enjoyed doing the movie, so I might give it a try."
Her fingers gripped her fork and her eyes fell on her food.
Michael noticed her expression and he asked,
"You don't want to me to take the offers?"
She looked at him immediately and shook her head,
"No, it's fine."
She continued eating casually, trying to look fine but Michael studied her.
"What did we say about not keeping secrets?"
Diana swallowed and she looked at him. How would he feel if she told him how she really felt about him taking another acting role?
He wouldn't quit because of her, would he?
Besides he was becoming famous. He wouldn't quit because she didn't want him to.
"You can tell me. It hurts me seeing you like this, you know that."
She bit her lower lip,
"Would you not take any acting role if I tell you not to?"
She asked, raising her eyes to look at him. She sounded selfish, very selfish. What was she thinking?
"Never mind, I was just joking." Her eyes fell.
"I've not answered your question."
She looked back at him in surprise,
"You're worried that I'll act with other women and kiss other women, right?"
There was a smile on his chin as he asked. Diana bit her lip, was she that easy to read?
"No, don't mind me. I was just overthinking."
"No, you're not overthinking. And you asked if I'll not take any roles if you don't want me to, my answer is yes.
If you don't want me to, I won't. So tell me, should I not?"
Diana's heart raced,
Was he serious about doing what she wanted?
It would be selfish of her to tell him not to act anymore because she was scared,
"I know I might sound selfish right now, but it's been on my mind for a while. You're tall, handsome, sweet, everything every woman wants. So many women want you, and if you act more movies, you'll attract more attention.
I'm already scared of us not being together for long because of the women after you, and now if you start taking roles…
You might love me now, but you'll meet so many beautiful women, kiss so many beautiful women, and any other thing the script says. I know I'm being a nagging girlfriend, but I can't help it. I'm jealous about you. Very jealous. So even though it's a movie, I don't want you kissing or touching other women."
She concluded, swallowing hard. She frowned when she saw him smiling.
"it's not funny."
"why are you this cute?"
He asked with a grin.
Diana stared at him speechlessly.
"You forgot I'm doing this for fun sweetheart. And I value some things more than others. And there are people I can't trade for anything in the world."
He paused, touching her leg on his thigh.
"Right now, I can't trade you for anything in the world. You're the most important person in my life, and I'll not do anything to hurt you. I don't think you understand me when I said I love you?"
Her breath caught in her throat,
"It is not mere words sweetheart, I love you so very much. And that includes not getting you sad or mad, or making you worry. Besides it's just for fun, I'm not interested in the fame, so since you don't want me to, I won't. "
Diana's eyes watered when she heard him,
"I'm sorry."
Michael stared at her in surprise.
"why? You didn't do anything…"
Before he could complete his words, she was already crying.
His lips fell open, standing up he walked to her side and held her already red face,
"what's wrong? "
"I'm sorry for being so jealous, and for not trusting you enough."
"jeez, is that why you're crying?" he hugged her, patting her back.
Lifting her up, he sat down and made her sit on his thigh,
Diana hugged him,
"Don't mind what I said earlier, you can act the movies if you want to, okay? I was just being petty."
"But I don't want to anymore."
"I'm serious. You're making me feel worse now."
She cried on his shoulders.
"So you're saying I should kiss other women, touch other women and have sex with them if the script says so?"
"No!"
Diana replied almost instantly making him laugh.
She was such a baby.
"what I mean is… you shouldn't quit totally, if there are movies that interest you but doesn't involve you kissing or other stuff you can take them. I don't want you to quit totally because of what I said."
Michael raised her head to look at her face.
He smiled,
"I love how jealous you're becoming because of me. It makes me happy."
Diana stared at him. He was too perfect for her. Did she give him a love potion unknowingly because this man was so love drunk.
"Okay, Let's do this. You check the movie scripts and I'll act whatever one you approve, how is that?"
She smiled and replied shyly.
"Okay, let's do that."
Michael caressed her chin,
"don't cry anymore, it breaks my heart."
She nodded. "Okay."
"Now let's eat. The food is all cold."
He said and turned to the table, instead of going back to his seat, he fed her from her plate, with her sitting on his thigh.
She was shy at first, but after a few bites she got comfortable.
Taking another fork, she fed him too.
"How many kids do you want to have?"
Michael asked out of nowhere. Diana blinked. She haven't thought about that before.
Her eyes stared at him, he was the only one in this entire world she would dream of bearing kids for.
She watched him take a price of meat and bring to her lips.
She ate,
"The thing is, I don't really want to have kids. The thought of it scares me. I'm afraid my body will change so much and you might not find me attractive anymore. But almost everyone wants kids so I can't deny my husband that, I might have one or two."
Michael stared at her with a smile,
"There's so much going on in this brain of yours, sweetheart. Someone who loves you will always find you attractive, sweetheart. And besides, if you're that concerned about your body, you can easily go to a doctor to put it back in shape besides you have a slender figure you won't really get fat after having a baby."
"That's not all…"
Diana pouted,
"what else?"
"I don't want any kids taking your attention away from me. I'm that jealous."
Michael laughed. "I should be the one bothered about your divided attention, but don't worry, we'll worry about that later. Besides, you don't even want to marry me yet. We'll think about that when you accept my proposal."
Diana chuckled,
"You're making me feel bad now, it's not like you're ready, you're just asking, no ring, nothing."
"who said I have no ring?"
