Chapter 536 Janette Goes For A Pregnancy Test
“Can you please be more reasonable, Michael? What makes you think that I’m being contradictory?” When it came to Michael, I really wasn’t in the mood to waste my breath with him then. After all, he could refute me no matter what I said.
“You don’t have a choice tonight. Either you go back to the bedroom to rest with me, or I’ll keep you company in the guest room. You can make your choice between the two options.”
Likewise, Michael hadn’t the patience to continue arguing with me and gave me no room to make a choice. “I choose the third option. We’ll both sleep separately, with neither bothering the other.”
I would never choose either of the two options he proposed. What’s the difference between the options he gave me and giving me no choice? No matter where I sleep, he’s going to sleep beside me. In that case, it’d be a waste for me to have gone to the trouble of going to the guest room to sleep alone!
“Have you ever seen a married couple sleeping separately just because there’s a conflict between them? You’re my wife, Anna, so I demand to sleep in the same bed as you!”
As soon as Michael heard my answer, his expression turned considerably chillier, and his tone also became much more domineering. Most likely, he lacked the patience to continue speaking to me.
“Michael, I just want to have a good rest. Is this really necessary? Do you know that I’m exhausted every single night?”
Frowning, I glowered at him with chagrin written all over my face. Verily, I couldn’t quite stand his nightly harassment.
At once, Michael’s expression darkened.
He was silent for a long moment before promising, “Fine. I won’t touch you tonight so that you can have a good rest.”
I stared into his eyes, doubting the veracity of his words. Previously, he also vowed to allow me to rest, but he always went back on his word. Thus, I didn’t quite believe him anymore.
“Are you sure you can do it? I no longer harbor any trust in you now,” I muttered morosely, looking right at him.
“You can only trust me now, for you have no other choice. If I want to bed you, I can still get you into my bed even if you sleep in the guest room.”
The look in Michael’s eyes as he gazed at me was indifferent. Although his words were placid, I was on the verge of bursting a blood vessel after hearing that. Argh! He’s all too confident that he can have his way with me!
Livid, I shot daggers at him, not wanting to utter a single word further. Right then, irritation consumed me.
“Come on, let’s go back to the bedroom to rest. It’s very late now.”
Michael walked over to me and took my hand, heading right out of the door.
I heaved a sigh, once again choosing to relent before him. Truth be told, I was very much irritated at myself then for being entirely incapable of going against him.
When we returned to the bedroom, he strode straight into the bathroom for a shower without sparing me a single glance. My brows furrowed in bafflement, and I wondered whether he was irate because of that matter.
As I listened to the sound of running water, I racked my brain about easing the atmosphere between us when he came out.
I could sense that he was furious that night and that knowledge tormented me.
After he exited the bathroom, I went over to him to start a conversation, but he climbed into bed without any intention of speaking to me.
For a moment, I was rooted to the spot. Never had he been so dispassionate toward me ever since the two of us got back together. As a result, sorrow inundated me.
“Go and take a shower before going to bed,” Michael urged mildly upon seeing that I had been standing on the same spot for a long while.
Snapping back to reality, I tried my best to conceal my disappointment.
“Okay, I’ll go and take a shower now. Sleep earlier if you’re tired. You don’t need to wait for me.”
