Nana laughs and—oh my god—she freaking blushes. “Granddaughter, however I’m flattered.”

Oh my god, the gall of this freaking man. And the way pathetic is Nana proper now, falling for the obvious line in the complete world?

Saul grins at her. “I admire you letting me intrude in your night.”

“No, no, completely nice. Need me to make you some tea? We’ve got crackers?—”

“Nana.” I glare at her. She’s virtually tripping over herself proper now.

“Proper. Off to mattress with this previous girl.” She limps previous him, pauses to lookup at his large bicep, then disappears down the corridor shaking her head.

I’m by no means going to listen to the tip of this. I feel Nana’s in love.

Everybody’s in love with Saul, besides me.

“She appears good,” he says as he finishes placing the chilly stuff away. “How lengthy have you ever lived along with her?”

“Since I used to be little. My dad wasn’t within the image and my mother handed once I was ten. Nana raised me.”

“Sorry to listen to that, however she looks like a very good one.”

“She’s the perfect. Deserves extra.” I lean again in opposition to the counter, arms crossed. When the infant’s right here, I don’t know the way I’m ever going to deal with everybody, however I’ll by no means hand over on my household. I like them an excessive amount of. “You gave me groceries. You met Nana in opposition to my higher judgment. Now are you able to go?”

He closes the fridge door. “I wasn’t joking.”

“About what?”

“Marrying you.”

“I’m sorry, however sure, you had been positively joking. That’s the funniest factor I’ve ever heard.”

“I imply it. You’re pregnant with my baby. I wish to deal with you, and making you my spouse is one of the simplest ways I can consider to do this.”

“What world do you reside in? Severely, what fantasy land do you come from?” I throw up my arms in frustration, as a result of I really feel like that is some type of trick. “We’re strangers, Saul. I stole your Rolex, keep in mind? You referred to as me a hooker?”

“We fucked prefer it was the tip of the world.”

I groan, tipping my head again. My mouth waters on the thought. He’s proper, that was some very world-ending intercourse. “Yeah, we actually did, however intercourse is simply intercourse. It was implausible, okay? I nonetheless give it some thought on a regular basis, however?—”

“I knew you probably did.” He comes nearer. I again away, my arms up. I don’t like that look in his eye. Properly, I find it irresistible, however I don’t wish to find it irresistible. “Inform me precisely the way you contact your self whenever you think about me fucking you.”

“Cease it,” I whisper, trying on the door meaningfully. “We’re not getting married, and we’re not doing that ever once more.”

“We’re. Ideally each, however I’d settle for marriage.”

“I’m not doing this with you. What do I’ve to do to get you out of my house? I’m exhausted and I wish to go to mattress.”

He tilts his head, contemplating. “Say you’ll marry me.”

“That’s not occurring. Strive once more.”

“Inform me what your loved ones wants.”

I open my mouth to inform him off—however clamp down once more. As a result of that’s not insane or unreasonable. It’s beneficiant and an excessive amount of, and I don’t need something from him, however at the very least it’s a technique to finish this dialog that doesn’t contain me sporting his silly ring. I simply need him gone so I can transfer on with my life.

“Will that get you out of my house?”

“Sure. I promise.”
