Worry creasing her brow, she continued, “Kyson, I’ve been around Dulcie for a while now.


    She has a wonderful character, cares deeply for you, and takes good care of you.


    Good women like her are rare.


    If you don’t cherish her, you’ll regret it!”


    Kyson frowned slightly, his mood darkening.


    He deliberately picked up a piece of fatty meat and ced it on her te.


    “Just eat your food.


    Why can’t you shut up with so many dishes in front of you?”


    Sally snorted in dissatisfaction.


    When she noticed the fatty meat on her te, a grimace crossed her face.


    “It’s so greasy.


    I don’t want to eat it!”


    Kyson’s voice was low andmanding.


    “Stop being picky about food.


    ”


    Sally was rendered speechless.


    Kyson was really vindictive!


    AngsLibrary


    After dinner, Kyson retreated to his bedroom.


    The bedroom door creaked open.


    With her back to the entrance, Dulcie was bent over, busily arranging a quilt on the sofa.


    Upon hearing the sound of the door opening, Dulcie turned her head to him and said, “I’d better sleep on the sofa tonight.


    I’ve changed the sheets and quilt cover for you, Mr.


    Shaw.


    You can rest assured and sleep in the bed.


    ”


    Kyson pursed his lips tightly and shut the door behind him.


    “Why did you eat so little tonight and pull a long face? Sally’s starting to suspect me because of you.


    ”


    Dulcie’s face paled at his words.


    When she caught the first part of his statement, she was taken aback.


    She thought he had paid attention to her appetite, but she didn’t expect it would be because of Sally.


    Lowering her head, she turned slowly to face him, offering a slight bow as she apologized without meeting his eyes.


    “I’m sorry.


    I just didn’t have much of an appetite tonight.


    I’ll be more careful next time.


    I’ll try to hide my emotions better.


    ”


    Seeing her obedient demeanor, Kyson felt an inexplicable surge of anger.


    He didn’t understand his conflicted emotions.


    He had originally hoped that Dulcie wouldply and bepletely obedient to fulfill her part of their agreement.


    Yet now that he was seeing her give him exactly that, behaving obediently and subdued, devoid of the lively personality she had shown just days ago, instead of content, it left him with an ufortable feeling all over.


    “You don’t have to make a bed on the sofa.Property ? 2024 N0(v)elDrama.Org.


    I won’t sleep in the bedroom tonight.


    ”


    Coming back to his senses, he reopened the door, turned on his heel, and left without so much as a backward nce.


    As Dulcie stared at the closed door, a sense of emptiness filled her heart.


    She continued arranging the quilt on the sofa with no intention of taking Kyson’s ce in bed.


    It seemed that no matter how hard she tried, she couldn’t grasp anything that didn’t belong to her.
