“I am excited,” Yvette typed.

“It doesn’t look like it from your texts.”

“I really am. I’m so happy you’re back.”

A video call popped up from Riley.

Yvette declined it and sent a message, “My husband and I are already in bed. No video calls.”

“Shit, I forgot you’re married now. Bring your husband to meet me tomorrow.”

Yvette sent a cold smirk emoji, then typed one last line, “Good night.”

She muted her phone and placed it beside her pillow.

Out of nowhere, a large warm hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her gently back against his firm chest.

Yvette tensed up. She felt gloomy and upset.

“Who texted you this late?” Brandon whispered quietly.

“A friend.”

“Guy or girl?” There was a faint, subtle hint of jealousy in his tone.

“A girl.”

Brandon dropped the question. He closed his eyes, breathing in the soft scent of her hair. He pressed light kisses along her neck, slowly moving down to her earlobe and her cheek.

He lifted himself slightly and kissed her on the lips.

Yvette’s body went rigid. When his hand slipped underneath her loose, thin nightgown, she suddenly grabbed his wrist.

Brandon felt her resistance. He pulled back slightly, his breathing heavy.

“You don’t want to?”

“Brandon… can men separate love from physical intimacy?” Yvette stared into his beautiful

eyes, her own glossy and filled with quiet sorrow.

Brandon curved his lips into a faint smile and kissed her forehead.

“I can’t speak for other men. But I can’t.”

Whether his words were true or fake, Yvette’s heart softened anyway.

He must have feelings for her; otherwise, he wouldn’t keep craving her this way.

Even if he were lying, she chose to believe him.

She slowly loosened her grip, stopped resisting, and closed her eyes to let him take what he wanted.

The next morning, the bright sunlight streamed into the room. Yvette woke up early.

After washing up, she quietly pulled a small bottle out of her drawer and took one pill.

Brandon was still asleep. She headed downstairs alone for breakfast.

Half an hour later, she returned to the bedroom. The second she pushed the door open, her breath caught.

Brandon was already dressed in a neat suit. He sat on the lounge chair with a dark expression, holding her pill bottle in his hand.

Panic surged through Yvette. She hurried over to him.

“Brandon, what are you doing with my bottle?”

Brandon lifted his gaze. The bottle labeled as “vitamins” was clearly visible in his palm, and guilt twisted in her chest.

“What is this?” His tone was flat and cold.

Ever since she’d met him, Brandon had always been gentle and easygoing. This was the first time she’d seen him angry.

“It’s vitamins.”

“I’m a doctor. I can tell the difference between vitamins and birth control pills.”

Yvette clenched her fists tightly and stared silently at the floor.

Brandon tossed the bottle into the trash can. He stood up, walked toward her, and grabbed her shoulders with both hands.

He lowered his head and asked sharply, “If you didn’t want to have kids with me, why didn’t you talk to me? I could’ve taken contraceptive measures. Why secretly take pills behind my back? Do you know how harmful these pills are to your body?”

“My doctor said it’s safe.”

“Being safe doesn’t mean free of side effects.” Brandon took a deep breath, forcing down his

anger.

“From today on, you stop taking these pills. Do you understand me?”

Yvette nodded. Tears glistened in her lowered eyes.

She didn’t want to take them. She didn’t want to avoid pregnancy.

Even though Brandon had promised he would never divorce her, could a marriage without true love really last a lifetime?

What would she have left once he grew tired of her body?

Nothing but empty responsibility?

Bringing a child into a broken marriage would only hurt the kid. She would rather not have one at all.
