The next morning, ra and Horace had breakfast in the dining hall. Horace looked at her and suddenly asked, “How did you sleepst night?”


    “Not bad.” ra looked up. “Why?”


    “I thought you would be ufortable with me by your side.” Horace took a sip of coffee and looked pale. “If necessary, I can move to the guest room.”


    ra was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that Horace was referring to that thing that happened between them. Her face blushed. “We are husband and wife, and living together in one room is what we are supposed to be.”


    Horace looked at ra, “You are not mad at me?”


    He still remembered that night. He could not forget how fearful she was when he approached her. That kind of resistance made him very ufortable.


    ra looked at Horace with bashful eyes, “I never med you. It did note from nowhere.”


    “Really?” Horace suddenly raised his eyebrows. “Where do you think it came from?”


    “Well…” ra didn’t expect Horace to continue this topic, which made her even more embarrassed. However, under Horace’s gaze, she went on, “because that night, I did not think about your feelings and brought Darren to our conversation. I can understand why you were mad at me. After all, I am your wife now. I should get over it as soon as possible.”


    Horace’s eyebrows even raised higher.


    Although ra’s words were not specific, he still understood what she said.


    ra thought that he would do that to her that night because of his possessiveness.


    Horace suddenly burst outughing.


    “What’s the matter? What’s so funny?” ra thought she had said something wrong and asked in embarrassment.


    Horace looked at ra and started to think about their rtionship.


    He had never been a man who was in denial of his feelings. His previous care for ra and his jealousy of Darren had all made him realize one thing-


    It seemed that he really had special feelings about his wife, whom he had married casually.


    For so many years, he thought he would never be attracted to anyone again. But finally, this woman just appeared.


    Fortunately, she was his wife.


    But unfortunately, she seemed to be unaware of her importance to him.


    Should he exin his mind directly to her to pull her into his arms, or should he win her over with patience?


    Horace smiled bitterly.


    It had been a long time since he fell in love with a woman. At this time, he actually felt that ra was more difficult to handle than all of his business dealsbined.


    He decided to take his time.


    Horace looked at ra with a faint arc at the corners of his mouth. “It’s ok to think that way.”


    ra couldn’t figure out the meaning behind Horace’s words, so she just nodded with confusion.


    Horace looked at her and silently smiled again. He whispered to her, “are you free tomorrow? A friend of mine ising for dinner.”


    “Friend?” ra was stunned.


    “Yes.” Horace nodded. “You don’t want to see my family, and now you don’t want to see my friends either?”


    ra smiled “don’t tease me, please. I will prepare the dinner tomorrow.”


    The next day, ra and Martha worked all morning in the kitchen. At noon, this mysterious guest finally came.Belongs to ? n0velDrama.Org.


    “Horace, your ce looked much habitable than it was before. It must be because you have a wife now.”


    Before he arrived, his voice had already been in the house. He sounded like a domineering sort of fellow.


    ra hurried to the living room and saw a man in a pink shirting in.


    This man was about the same age as ra. He was also very good-looking, butpared with Horace, he was undoubtedly more outspoken.


    “You must be ra.” As soon as the man saw ra, he hurried to meet her. He also stared at Horace in the wheelchair. “Horace, you never told me you have such a beautiful wife!”


    Horace’s expression did not change and he ignored this man’s words. He just opened his mouth and introduced them to each other, “stair, this is ra. ra, this is stair Jakovich.”


    stair Jakovich?


    Out of her instinct as a journalist, she found the name quite familiar. After thinking for a while, she suddenly realized, “stair Jakovich! So are you the young master of the Jakovich family? ”


    There were three big family businesses in Queensvale.


    Kirnd was thergest. Next, there was the Jakovich family which was particrly influential in the entertainment industry, and the Hutchinson family, which had slowly begun to decline in recent years.


    stair was the only son and heir of the Jakovich family.


    “How are you.” ra was a little nervous, but still smiled appropriately, “I’m ra.”


    “I’ve heard so much about you.” stair, with his amorous eyes staring at her, held ra’s hand and prepare to kiss her in her hand, which to him, might be his gentlemanly manners.


    But at this very moment, Horace suddenly raised his hand and saved ra’s hand from stair’s lips.


    “Not yours to kiss.” Horace’s face was still expressionless but he had made himself clear enough.


    stair was stunned, and his eyes lit up involuntarily.


    Wow, was he being jealous? That was really interesting now. He thought to himself.


    stair smiled and suddenly became interested in this woman. He came close to ra and pretended to tell her a secret, “hey ra, how did you get along with this guy? He does not know what a woman wants. I’m different though, much more interesting. Call me when you get bored of him.”


    ra said with an embarrassed smile, “You’re such a joker by nature, Mr. Jakovich.”


    Horace’s face was already darkened. He took ra by the hand and went into the dining room.


    Martha and Donald prepared the dinner and went back because of family affairs of their own. Only ra, Horace, and stair were left in the vi.


    stair crossed his legs and yelled like a hooligan, “Hey, where is the wine? Horace, go get the wine. No one is here, man! Why are you still sitting in that wheelchair?”


    ra was stunned when she heard his words. Horace stood up from his wheelchair, filled a bowl of soup, handed it over to ra, and said, “Just ignore him.”


    Then he turned and walked towards the wine cer.


    ra realized that stair had a good rtionship with Horace. Horace even told him the truth about his legs.


    stair watched as Horace left. Then he put away his casual smile and turned his head to look at ra.


    “I need to thank you, ra.”


    ra was a little ufortable with his sudden seriousness, “For what?”


    “Thank you for marrying him.” stair leaned back in his chair and grinned. This time, he smiled sincerely, “you are the second person to know the truth about Horace’s legs, which proves that he trusts you.”


    ra thought of Horace’s sudden rise from the chair that night and blushed slightly. She said with a smile, “Trust is the foundation of marriage.”


    stair looked at the woman in front of him, his eyes twinkled, and then he said, “ra, has he ever told you why he pretended to be disabled?”
