Chapter 140: A sudden agreement

We haven't shared the bed in more than a week, is that right? Mhm... More than a week, indeed.

Well, we've slept in the same room, on the same bed. But nothing more than sleeping.

I can't afford to act like a bad wife just because I'm angry. Also, it would have the drawback to make my Duke concede only because of lust. He wouldn't open up to me because he wants to, or because he understood that it's crucial to me. He would do it just to have me back.

Or he would search for other women. I can't overlook this possibility.

The fact that he was loyal up to now doesn't mean he'll stay like this for his whole life. It won't happen after a few days, but he'll get tired if I act like this for months.

By the way, physical intimacy is the only reason why I can accept to keep him by my side. He'll have to work hard if he wants all the rest.

«Are you hungry?» Alexander asks, showing me the food on the table.
