Sarah looked up at the ceiling.“Ten more minutes,” she said quietly. “Tell him he can come in after ten minutes.”Hanosa bowed slightly and left, closing the door behind her. When her footsteps faded, Sarah stayed still on the bed.It was an unspoken rule between her and Ronan—something never discussed, yet always followed.Whenever he returned home, he never came straight into her room without permission. He always had Hanosa ask when he could enter, and she always answered in minutes.It was almost ironic, because he didn’t need to do that. The room was his too. He could have walked in whenever he wanted. But maybe that was how they kept the only thing left of their marriage—distance.Sarah rose from the bed and walked to the bathroom to freshen up. Usually, whenever Ronan wanted to see her, she would put in a lot of effort to look perfect for him.

He called one of the housemaids, Hanosa. “Where is Sarah?” he asked flatly while taking off his coat. “Is she in her room? Ask her when I can come in.” Hanosa lowered her head politely before answering carefully. “I’m sorry, Sir. Madam Sarah hasn’t returned yet. She left this morning. Maybe she’ll be home soon.” Ronan only nodded. After the maid left, Ronan walked toward Sarah’s room. After sleeping with Mia at her apartment, he planned to do the same with Sarah tonight. But now, he lay on Sarah’s bed, watching an adult video he had filmed with Mia. His reason was simple—he could never get aroused by his wife anymore. So he started to foreplay himself while waiting for her. But an hour passed. The clock on the wall showed eleven at night, and Ronan was still sitting on the edge of Sarah’s bed with a dark expression. He frowned and stared at
