Marriage With A Evil Heart

Chapter 73: No Chance



Before I could let him out, his phone rang, and he glanced at it before turning it off.

Then, he smiled at Oliver, patted his head slightly, and said, “Are you sleepy? If you are, go to sleep…”

Before he could finish speaking, the phone rang again. He stood up and said to me, “I’m going to take a shower! Oliver, go to sleep!”

I directly asked, “Why don’t you answer the phone?”

He casually replied, “It’s Emma.”

I didn’t give him a chance to lie, “Then answer it! She must have a reason to call you so late!”

“It’s about the payment. I need to check the report before replying to her!” He was weaving lies smoothly.

If I’m not mistaken, I guess this call should be from Amelia.

After saying that, Robert quickly left Oliver’s room. I didn’t pay him any attention and continued chatting with Oliver.

Of course, most of the time, I was the one doing the talking. Even so, I was happy about it. Nothing is more important than my children, and I must make Oliver lively.

After Oliver fell asleep, I returned to my room, exhausted, unable to even take a shower.

Just as I was dozing off, Robert appeared in my room, dressed neatly. He looked at me with a flattering expression, smiled gently, and said, “Honey, you sleep, and I need to go to the company; there’s an account discrepancy that I need to check. I have to make the payment tomorrow!”

Upon hearing this, I instantly became alert. I responded decisively, “No, you’re not allowed to go. What account are you checking in the middle of the night? It can wait until tomorrow. Who called you? Let me talk to them. If they can’t handle such a small matter, they shouldn’t be doing it. Robert, today’s matter is not over yet! I’m too tired today. You’d better go to sleep, and don’t go anywhere!”

To be honest, since we got married, this is the first time I’ve spoken to him with such a tone, and my attitude is quite assertive.

Robert might have never seen me so assertive, and he stood there in confusion, looking at me for a long time without reacting.

I think the key is that he didn’t understand the meaning of “today’s matter is not over yet,” but he’s naturally weak for having done the unseemly. He stood in front of the bed for a long time, and in the end, he obediently changed his clothes, turned off his phone, and did not go out.

Lying on the bed, he reached out, trying to pull me closer. His body pressed against mine, and I immediately slapped his hand away, “I told you I’m exhausted!”

In my mind, I cursed, thinking, “Do you think I’m one of those cheap women who aroused at the slightest touch?”

Robert visibly startled, chuckled, “It’s been a while since we did this, honey, I want!”

His voice gave me goosebumps, and I almost vomited. I quickly moved away, scolding him without mercy, “Considering my current situation, just staying alive is good enough. Do you really have the mood for this?”Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.

“Then why did you insist on bringing Oliver back?” Robert’s tone carried a hint of anger, disturbed by my attitude.

“You still have the nerve to ask. During my illness, did you ever bother to check on Oliver? Do you think that dumping the child at your mother’s place solves everything?” I turned to face him, staring directly into his eyes. “Have you not noticed that Oliver’s personality has changed?”

“I’ve been too busy,” Robert defended himself. “You don’t trust leaving him with my mom? I don’t see any change. You’re blowing things out of proportion.”

“Blowing things out of proportion?” I was genuinely angry, and my voice rose a couple of octaves. “You’re busy? Your entire family is at the company, and you’re the only one busy. You don’t even have time to occasionally spend with the children? Then why keep them? The company’s purpose is to create profits, not feed a bunch of people for free. If they can’t do their jobs well, then send them all back! I’m not dead yet, and you all can take a break. I’ll take over again!”

I spoke quite directly.

Damn it, if I don’t give him some pressure, he really thinks I’m dead.

Sure enough, my words hit Robert where it hurt. His wandering hands on me abruptly stopped.
