The Divorce Prescription (Celina and Adam) novel Chapter 1128

Michelle had just praised Nathan, but she was only met with cold indifference, so she fell silent.

She had never coaxed a man in her life. Seriously, why were men so hard to placate?

Wasn't it supposed to be women who were difficult instead?

Janet spoke up. "I live around here. Just drop me off at the next intersection."

Jeremy stepped on the brakes, pulling the car to a stop.

Janet got out, waved cheerfully, and said, "Bye."

Michelle waved back. "Okay. See you."

The luxury car drove on. Half an hour later, it pulled to a stop outside the villa. They were home.

Nathan and Michelle got out of the car and entered the villa.

Rosa hurried out to greet them. "Mr. and Mrs. Lynch, you're back. Shall I prepare dinner?"

"No need," Nathan replied flatly.

"We already ate out," Michelle added.

Rosa nodded. "Alright then. It's getting late. Please rest early."

They went upstairs and retired to their bedroom.

Michelle picked up her pajamas. "I'll shower first."

"You go ahead. I'll use the guest bathroom," Nathan said.

"Okay."

Michelle went into the bathroom and enjoyed a long, relaxing soak. When she came out, Nathan had already finished bathing. He stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in silk pajamas, phone in hand, replying to messages.

They needed to cut to the chase tonight and get pregnant as soon as possible.

Michelle walked over and wrapped her arms around Nathan from behind.

Though he was only joking, his gaze was assessing her intently.

Michelle's heart clenched.

She couldn't let him see through her, not before she got pregnant! She had to be careful.

Michelle fell silent.

So he was still angry about Irene.

If she couldn't placate him, then forget it.

Her patience finally snapped, and she said, "Nathan, I honestly don't understand what you're even angry about!"
