Chapter 154
frained the warm mood, and Jared looked at me seriously.
Howered my head, pretending to check my phone. Even if red hadn’t cheated yet this
i time, thinking of the shame and Parent from my predsta
People changed, and so did love. Maybe I valued love too much before, or maybe I was just afraid of what people would think if I divanced
However, my failed marriage in my previous life made my parents worry about me even more. I felt I had let them down.
Jared suddenly got quiet and distant. Seeing that I wouldn’t talk to him, he turned to his own affairs.
The plane landed, and we headed to the hotel. Jased had booked a presidential suite with two bedrooms.
“Victoria, I’m sorry. I know you’re a woman who values love above all else. Give me some time. I’ll make things right, okay?” Jared acted like a character straight out of a romance novel.
I stood there, looking at him. He came over and kissed my forehead, “Good night.”
Then he went into his bedroom, and I turned and headed to the other one..
The night passed quietly. The next morning. Jared showed me the model house. Shariport prices were steep, and this place cost a fortune. However, Jared paid without batting an eye, presenting the apartment as a gh.
Aher finishing the property paperwork, Jared took me out for lunch. He chose a restaurant with a stunning view overlooking Sharport’s busting business district and shopping malls.
Jared sipped his coffee with grace, smiling as he said, “victoria, after all these years of marriage, we rarely have a meal alone like this. Sorry, I was too caught up with work and ignored you.”
I took a sip of my coffee and smiled. “It’s fine. I’m not a perfect wife either
Jared froze for a moment, then said, “To me, you’ve always been a perfect wife. I’ve just been too greedy”
“Do you really think so? I’ve just been coasting these six years, never, trying to improve myself to keep up with you. I’m a lazy wife,” I said, playing along as Jared complimented me.
Jared chuckled, shaking his head. “When I married you, I promised to give you a life without worries. You’re so pretty, and when I first met you, you were like a flower about to bloom. Flowers like that need to be cared for.”
I stared at him and said, “Flowers will fast and need a lot of care. I’m not fragile like that at all.”
“Victoria, you’ve been pretty sharp lately. You’ve changed a lot, Jared said, a mix of helplessness and fondness in his expression as he leaned back in his
chair.
He looked so polished and handsome, with that look of affection in his eyes. I was totally hooked on him before
However, now, when I saw a good–looking man, all I wanted was to outshine him at work, not be his wife anymore.
“I’ve gotten sharp–tongued. Don’t you like it?” raised an eyebrow, teasing a bit.
Jared shook his head, examining me with interest. “No, you’re good like this. You’re no longer a gentle lily. You’re a wild rose with thorns.”
