“Right.”
“Come on. You can watch TV with Tyrone while I go out.”
I pick up Bella, and walking out of the bedroom, I ask, “Where are you going?”
“To get a couple of things. I won’t be too long.”
When I get to the living room, I make myself comfortable on the couch and let Bella snuggle in my lap.
When Tyrone comes to sit with me, he says, “I’ve been told to guard you while your man goes out.”
I let out a chuckle because no one needs to tell Tyrone to guard me. He’s been doing it all my life.
Dario comes to kiss me goodbye, and as he leaves the apartment, I switch on the TV and pick a comedy to watch.
Chapter 32
Dario
“Dario,” Eden gasps, looking shocked out of her mind. “You call this meeting me in the middle?”
I point at the phone and laptop. “You need those. Your phone is from the Middle Ages.”
Tyrone lets out a chuckle, which earns him a scowl from Eden, then she gestures at the earrings and necklace set that I couldn’t resist getting for her.
“I suppose you’re going to tell me I need those too?” she asks.
I figured she'd be okay with them as long as she didn’t know they cost thirty-eight thousand dollars.
“No, I got them because they’ll look beautiful on you,” I explain.
“They sure are sparkly,” Tyrone adds his two cents. “Must’ve cost quite a bit.”
“You’re not helping,” I mutter at him.
“Hey, I’m on her side.” He points at Eden, who shakes her head while she waves a hand at the Louis Vuitton handbag.
I shrug. “It’s just a handbag.”
She waves her arm wildly over the Dolce & Gabanna wallet, the Cartier watch, and Dior perfume.
“I could’ve redone your entire wardrobe,” I say in my defense.
“Jesus, you just love digging at that grave she’s going to bury you in,” Tyrone chuckles, getting way too much pleasure out of the shit I find myself in.
Esmerelda comes closer and looks at everything I bought. “It’s not that much. I’m actually surprised there aren’t car keys.”
I wrap my arm around my housekeeper. “They’re putting a bulletproof coating on the car.”
“The what?” Eden gasps.
Letting go of Esmerelda, I walk closer to my woman and wrap my arms around her.
Locking eyes with her, I say, “It’s just a few gifts, Tesoro. It would make me incredibly happy if you accepted them.”
She lets out a sigh, and luckily for me, her features start relaxing as she whispers, “It’s a lot.”
I press a kiss to her left cheek. “No, it’s not.” I kiss her right cheek. “You deserve the world, and I want to give it to you.”
