Evershining Stars, Everlasting Love novel Chapter 1

I never thought my husband, Jerry, would get down on his knees in front of me and beg me to sleep with another man for a night.

It was my birthday and Jerry came home early.

I went up to take his jacket, but Jerry suddenly took my hand and said, "Nance, will you do me a favor?"

I froze, smiled faintly, and said, "I'm afraid I can't help you. I have become incapable of staying at home these past few years.

"No, you can, only you can." Jerry said quickly, "My company is in trouble. You have to help me."

I looked at him, puzzled, "What do you want me to help you with?"

"Please sleep with a man for one night. Just one night." Jerry's words shocked me.

I didn't expect him to say something like that.

"Why would I agree to do that?" I pulled my hand out of his, turned my back on him, and questioned him coldly, "Jerry, I'm your wife, how could you let me do this?"

"You also know I have sexual dysfunction. We haven't had sex since we got married. But you have to understand me. The company is the only property of the Lu family. I can't let it go bankrupt." Jerry took my hand and dropped to his knees again.

I turned to look at him incredulously and slapped him hard. He dropped to his knees without pride.

When I saw the tears in his eyes, my heart, which had been so determined, softened.

I had been married to him for three years, but we had never had sex. In these three years, he had been very good to me and to my family.

When I saw him abandon his dignity and kneel in front of me, my heart ached, so I finally nodded reluctantly.

It was pathetic that on my birthday Jerry let me sleep with another man as if I were a gift.

Jerry happily stood up and put the hotel room card on my hand. I looked at the groom card in silence, squeezing it hard in my hand.

"Thank you for helping me this time." said Jerry.

I faintly wipe away my tears then push him away. Only Jerry, the idiot, would let his wife sleep with someone else.

Then he drove me to the hotel. When I got out of the car, I checked my phone and found it was now 10:30 pm.

"Don't let me down." said he.
