Torn Between Love and Hate novel Chapter 246

Chapter 246 My Wife 

Deborah couldn’t think of any reason to refuse Joseph again. 

They have come so far, walking through all these years, reaching this day, arriving at this very moment, and it has all naturally fallen into place. 

She just felt regretful that she couldn’t give her whole self to him. 

Her face flushed, she didn’t want to say more. 

She responded softly, “Mhm. 

For a brief moment, Joseph was taken aback, thinking he had experienced an illusion. 

He lowered his gaze to look at her, using the faint night light and moonlight to peer 

into her eyes. 

It wasn’t until he was certain that she truly wasn’t resisting, nor was she forcing herself 

to accept. 

His hand tightened around her waist, unable to restrain himself any longer. He lifted her horizontally and carried her toward the bed, all the while showering her with kisses. 

The night grew darker, and gradually, the moonlight became brighter. 

Moonlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting an enchanting glow 

over the room. 

Deborah didn’t know when she had fallen asleep. 

When I woke up, it was already the next afternoon. 

The curtains were drawn, blocking out the sunlight from outside. 

The light in the bedroom wasn’t very strong, making it seem like it was around 7 or 

or 8 in 

the morning. 

As she groggily opened her eyes, she felt sore all over her body, as if she had been run 

over by a car. 

After a moment of daze, she realized that she was lying in Joseph’s arms, with one hand 

Chapte 

resting on his chest. 

Deborah was a bit slow to react as she glanced at the slightly dazzling muscles in front of her. When she looked up, she met Joseph’s gaze, who was looking down at her. 

He must have woken up early, and as he looked at her, his eyes were filled with a meaningful smile. 

The contentment and satisfaction after a fulfilling meal were vividly displayed on his 

face. 

Deborah thought he was still asleep, but suddenly their eyes met. Her face immediately turned red, she moved her hand away and averted her gaze. 

Held in his embrace, she couldn’t look directly at him. Her gaze wandered restlessly, darting around until it settled on the ceiling light above. 

Joseph suddenly chuckled and gently touched her head, “You’re too thin, you more to nourish yourself.” 

should eat 

Unable to bear it any longer, Deborah pushed him away, rolled out of bed, and hurriedly picked up the clothes on the carpet to put them on. 

Joseph watched as she entered the bathroom, and soon the door closed behind her. The sound of running water could be heard from within. 

He recalled how her face had been flushed red from last night until now, and how she 

had even cried before falling into a deep sleep in the latter half of the night. 

He indeed couldn’t help himself and went a bit too far with her. Next time, he should 

learn to exercise some restraint. 

Joseph got up, got dressed, and called Morton to cancel his work arrangements for the afternoon, 

Deborah had requested two more days off, and after tidying up the messy bedroom, she was ready to head downstairs to cook. 

Having tidied up the bedroom, he suddenly thought of something and looked toward the direction of the bathroom. 

The bathroom door was tightly closed, with Deborah still inside. Apart from the sound of water, there was not even the slightest noise. 

Unable to hold back his laughter, Joseph was in a great mood. Instead of knocking on the door, he decided to head downstairs first. 

Deborah stood by the bathroom door, turning on the showerhead and pretending to take a shower, but in reality, she didn’t move at all. 

After closing the door and cutting off Joseph’s view from outside, she finally let out a slow sigh of relief. 

But soon, she looked around the bathroom and became lost in thought. 

The wrinkled bath towel lay on the sink, the bathrobe soaked in the bathtub, and the 

men’s dress shirt discarded on the floor beside it. 

Deborah recalled that just before entering the bathroom, the bedroom was also a sight 

for sore eyes. 

She felt a mix of embarrassment and annoyance. Was this man being a bit too 

outrageous? 

‘She was too embarrassed to go out, so she lingered in the bathroom for more than half 

an hour. 

Only then did she open the cabinet under the sink, took out a clean bathrobe, and wrapped herself tightly from head to toe, looking like a mummy. 

After dawdling for a while, the bathroom door was finally opened slowly. 

As soon as he went out, there was no one left in the bedroom outside. 

She had been worried for quite a while, only to find out that Joseph had already left 

earlier. 

As Deborah entered the cloakroom to find some clothes to change into, she couldn’t help but feel a bit resentful. 

This man must have gone to work without even saying a word, huh? 

I’m not sure if someone helped her ask for leave or not. It’s already the afternoon, and unexcused absences can lead to salary deductions. If things go wrong, she might even get fired. 

After worrying for a moment, she finally remembered that the company belonged to 

Joseph. 

Even if her money was deducted, it still ended up in Joseph’s pocket. 

As for the director’s resignation, it seems that as soon as she left, the director followed 

suit. 

Upon thinking about it this way, it seems much more reassuring. 

Joseph is not in this bedroom, so Deborah feels much more at ease. 

After changing her clothes, she planned to go to the bedroom outside to tidy up a bit. 

Upon stepping out, she discovered that the bedroom had been tidied up all around. 

Estimating that Joseph must have left early for some company matters, she also left the bedroom and headed downstairs, ready to prepare something to eat, 

Just as she walked downstairs, Joseph came out of the kitchen, carrying a plate of food. 

Upon seeing him, Deborah was caught off guard and startled, her legs going weak. 

Last night, she was genuinely traumatized. 

This man appears to be human, but when he goes at it, it becomes clear that he’s a 

beast! 

Deborah turned around, heading back to her bedroom. 

The housekeeper suddenly spoke up from behind, “Mrs. Black, Mr. Black has prepared the meal for you. No matter how tired you are, please have something to eat before you 

go to sleep.” 

Deborah’s face froze for a moment, and it took her quite a while to slowly turn around. She looked at the housekeeper with a forced smile, trying to hide her true feelings. 

The other housekeepers also chimed in with serious expressions, “Mrs. Black, you 

should eat first.” 

Deborah quickly noticed that each of them was holding a thick monetary gift in their 

hands. 

Perfectly demonstrated what it means to get things done with money. 

With determination, Deborah walked down the last s straight for the dining table. 

of the staircase and headed 

It was just eating, if Joseph isn’t embarrassed, why should she be embarrassed? 

As long as she isn’t embarrassed, it’s others who will be. 

Deborah walked over to the dining table and sat down. As she looked at the delicious. spread of dishes before her, she couldn’t help but praise it. 

“Wow, it smells amazing! Did you make this yourself? I’m actually quite hungry. Could you serve me some pasta, please?
