Skylar smiled and said, "My hair smells like stew."
"I've already prepared the bath for you. Want me to join you?" Joe lowered his head, his lips brushing near her ear, his tone teasingly intimate.
Skylar felt her ears tingle.
Even after years of marriage, Joe knew exactly how to seduce her.
"Let's bathe together," he decided for her, giving her no chance to respond.
Then he scooped her up and carried her to the bathroom.
…
Natalie lay on the bed after her bath, unable to sleep. She was clearly tired, even drowsy, but no matter what, she couldn't drift off.
She wasn't sure if it was because of jet lag or something else, but sleep simply wouldn't come.
Austin hadn't reached out to her today. Since she left, he hadn't called her once. His indifference suggested that perhaps he had lost all patience with her.
Or maybe, after years of his parents' sugar-coated persuasion and relentless efforts, they had finally planted the idea in his head that it was perfectly normal for a man to have multiple wives and mistresses.
Sometimes, Natalie couldn't understand Austin's mother. Having endured the hardship of competing with other women for her husband's attention, why would she support and perpetuate such a concept?
Did she think that since she had gone through it, other women should experience the same?
Natalie was tired of everything after all these years.
Even the strongest bond between her and Austin couldn't withstand the constant drama. Repeated incidents had drained her emotionally.

Is the author going to finally portray Skylark as a brave woman who can argue and communicate like a normal person in this real world? Hoping so.......
I don't like this story portraying Skylark's personality as too weak, too naive, Can't even defend herself Like accepting every humiliation from Vera's schemes and injustice without saying anything or doing anything. I wonder who is the protagonist in this novel, Vera or Skylark....
