The Marriage She Turned into War novel Chapter 331

"Samuel, go release a statement now that you'll be Joshua's lyricist. I want you to use your influence to promote his new album," Abigail said in a commanding tone as she stared at me.

My expression darkened instantly. My wife was not only asking for me to write lyrics for Joshua, but also to use my influence to help promote the very person who was trying to steal her away from me.

What a fine wife she turned out to be.

As expected, she had always been loyal, just not to me. And there was nothing I could do about it. On top of that, she was trying to squeeze every little bit of value out of me too.

It was truly absurd.

"Ms. Bardot, I don't understand what you mean. Are you suggesting that I not only offer him my services but also promote him using my influence in the industry? Is that what you want?" I asked for clarification.

Hearing my question, even she seemed to realize that she had gone too far. She lowered her voice and said in a gentler tone, "I know this isn't ideal, but you can name your terms. I'll agree to anything within my power. Moreover, we will pay you generously for this collaboration. It's a win-win scenario."

The way she phrased it sounded absolutely laughable.

"Ms. Bardot, I get it. You're trying to buy me off, aren't you?" I sneered at her, my face full of disdain.

"Samuel! Can you stop being so difficult? This isn't even that big of a deal. You're so patient with others, so why can't you show the same patience for this matter?

"Also, I don't understand what you're so hung up on. Is it because of Joshua's identity? This is work, okay? Please be professional!"

Her words once again left me speechless.

Now she considered this work? What about earlier? What about when we were at home? What was that supposed to be?
