Chase came out of the shower after a long time.  Rui, who was waiting for him to come back, did not bother to ask what he did inside.  Of course, she knows.  And just thinking of this makes her blush.  Her husband came out with only a blue silk robe tied around his body that exposed his glorious chest. His short hair was still dripping wet which added an extra dose of hotness and allure.  'I thank God for blessing my eyes…' she thought as she stared at her husband like a hot snack on the street.  She is attracted to her husband.  Why else would she give in to his charm, if not?

Leila and Carter sat across Chase inside his office.  “I apologize for not informing you guys about our marriage,” Chase politely said. Leila placed her teacup down. “It's alright. We just wanted to see what kind of man married our best friend in haste.” Leila scrutinized Chase. From his choice of clothing, down to his simplest actions. It did not escape her eyes.  Rich? Yes.  Handsome? Yes. Polite? Yes.  Pleasing to the eyes? Yes.  Dignified? Yes. Better than Rui's ex? Yes. 

Lianna tried to buy trolls to slander Rui again but her credit cards and savings accounts were suddenly all frozen. The trolls won't execute her orders without 70% of payment. Hence, she won't be able to complete the transaction.  She immediately called the bank to inquire about her account.  She heard the manager of the bank say, “Mrs. Smith, your account was frozen by Mr. Smith. Please coordinate with your husband. We only followed through his orders.” Lianna was stunned to hear that her husband blocked all her access to money.  How could she live without money?! Lianna felt her blood drain from her entirety. What if she went out with her cards frozen? Wouldn't that humiliate her?! 

A young lady entered the dressing room carefully before quietly placing the paper bag she was carrying to the side. “M-miss Lianna, here's your l-lunch…” she stammered.  Lianna glared at her, “What took you so long?! Useless! You call yourself an assistant and yet it took you 5 minutes to fetch my food when you can do it in a minute?!” The assistant bowed, “I'm sorry, Mrs. Smith!” When Lianna heard her assistant call her Mrs. Smith, she was both annoyed and elated. Annoyed because she hated Shane to the core and elated because it shows that her status as a rich wife is significant and can't be overlooked.  She impatiently waved her hand to dismiss the little assistant and focused on scrolling through her phone. 

Warning: R18 content ahead!    After the dinner with Leila and Taylor, Rui and Chase are now preparing to go to bed.  Rui just finished her skincare routine and went out of their bathroom. As she walks towards their king-size bed, she hears Chase ask, “Honey… Do you still have a period?” Stunned, Rui's face became flushed red. She remained quiet as she tucked herself under the fluffy blanket. She noticed that her husband was looking at the place where she keeps her menstrual cups. The cup was inside the sterilizer cup so he probably inferred that she doesn't have a period anymore. She already expected this question from him.  Chase's arm snaked around her waist and pulled her closer to him. Hi
