The next day.
“I want to move out.” On the dining table, Grace put down the bowls and chopsticks and said to the neatly dressed man beside her.
This man was overbearing, so she felt uneasy ...
“Alright.”
The silver spoon fell into the bowl and the man said swiftly.
Grace was shocked for three seconds before looking at the man suspiciously.
So easily?
“How about that apartment in the Ginza Garden?”
Caden had the habit of drinking a cup of black coffee in the morning. He took a sip gracefully and glanced at the woman opposite him. He said, “You can move out, but I have to ensure your safety. That apartment in the Ginza Garden is close to your company, and its security facilities are among the best in the city.”
Just as Grace was about to retort, the man put down the coffee and said, “Grace, there’s one thing you need to know. In fact, I don’t want you to move out.”
Letting her move out was already the greatest concession he could make.
Even though he made a concession, his attitude was tough.
Thinking back to yesterday’s post on Weibo, there were a lot of comments, “As a qualified husband, you have to fulfill your wife’s requirements as much as possible.”
Humbert said if he didn’t know how to love, then he should learn.
If this was the way ordinary people loved their wives, he thought, even if he disagreed with them and he was unwilling to do that, he would still learn to love her.
“... Alright, then, Ginza Garden.”
Grace said in a daze.
The moment she said to move out, she was already prepared to fight with this unreasonable, tough, and domineering man for a protracted period of time.
But now, it had actually gone so smoothly and he agreed so easily. She couldn’t believe it.
There was a commotion at the door.

How can a woman suffer so much? How can a man be too cruel initially robbing her of dignity and all, then deceiving her after he knows he loves her? How can they not remarry, making their offspring illegitimate? The line between love and hatred is truly fine indeed! Thank you for this story....
