Lately, Everett had been feeling stressed, seeking warmth and comfort from Selena and not wanting to deal with her icy demeanor.
With this in mind, he skillfully navigated the situation. His slender fingers gently lifted Selena's chin, a playful smirk dancing on his lips. "Mrs. Bennett, are you keeping tabs on me?"
They were three years into their marriage, so Selena knew him well enough.
She could tell he was dodging her questions and didn't want to explain—or maybe he thought it wasn't worth it.
Fine then.
Selena wrapped her arms around his neck, taking the lead to smooth things over. "I know you've been busy with work. I'm not the type of wife who needs her husband around all the time. I get it. Leave the wedding planning to me; I'll manage."
With that kind of understanding, how could anyone not adore her?
Everett pulled her closer, rewarding her with a soft kiss. "You're such a good girl."
"Anything you need to discuss with Derick, just let me know. I'll make sure you're happy."
See?
Men, after a little wandering, often came back home with a temporary sense of guilt and treated their wives a bit better.
"Mhm."
Selena nestled into his arms, catching a whiff of the hospital antiseptic still clinging to him. Her lips curled up in a smile, but her eyes remained cold.
Only two months were left until their six-month agreement was up.
She'd drag out the wedding planning for two more months, then it would be time to say goodbye!
He had already crushed her dreams of a wedding; she wouldn't dream of having one with him now!
That night, while Everett was still holed up in his study, Selena took a quick shower and headed to bed, hoping to dodge his advances.
But just as she settled under the covers, he returned.
