Chapter 7 A Cheating Husband

  • Slap!
  • Tallulah's hand forcefully met Stavros' face in a slap.
  • “Dignity? You, a sc*mbag, cheated on me, your wife. How dare you talk to me about dignity?”
  • A sudden contraction seized Stavros' pupils. He was utterly taken aback that she had the audacity to strike him.
  • He had been treated with high regard since childhood. No one had ever treated him the way Tallulah was treating him.
  • His tongue darted against his cheek. He then swiftly seized Tallulah's wrist and promptly pinned her down on the bed.
  • “Tallulah, have I been spoiling you too much?”
  • His gaze was icy, a heavy sense of oppression enveloping him, which fell heavily upon Tallulah.
  • Tallulah was taken aback, a flicker of fear flashing through the depths of her heart. How could I have forgotten? He's the third young master of the Luzzatto family. Since childhood, he has been living a life of luxury, and his status is incredibly esteemed! He must have never been treated like this before. He's surely seeing red! However, he's also my husband! He's cheated on me. He's in the wrong!
  • Tallulah tried her best to ignore the flicker of fear, her eyes still rimmed with red but defiant as she stared at him. “Stavvy does spoil me, but you, Stavros, the third young master of the Luzzatto family, what have you done to spoil me? Don't you find it laughable when you say that?”
  • Stavros had a profoundly sharp gaze, and it was hiding a cold storm within.
  • “Tallulah, your current state really doesn't spark any interest.”
  • He let her go, rising to his feet. He then looked at her condescendingly before turning on his heel and walking away.
  • Tallulah was so infuriated that her chest heaved dramatically. He isn't interested in me? Ha! He slept with me last night, and he's now telling me he's not interested in me! Could it be because he saw that girl?
  • A sense of unwillingness began to fester within Tallulah. Rising to her feet, she dashed toward him, throwing her arms around him. “Stavros, you can't leave! We're not divorced yet, so you have to stay with me!”
  • “Stay with you to watch you go mad?” Stavros scoffed coldly.
  • Having been married for half a year, Tallulah naturally knew how to tease him. Her soft hand slipped directly under his shirt, caressing his clearly defined abs.
  • Stavros' breath hitched, and he gripped her wrist. “What are you doing?”
  • Tallulah stepped in front of him. “Didn't you say you weren't interested in me? Stavros, you should speak according to the actual situation!”
  • A provocative smirk appeared on her lips when she saw his sullen expression. “What's the matter? Are you trying to remain chaste for that woman? But we're not divorced yet. You have a duty to fulfill your obligations.”
  • Tallulah moved closer to him and added, “If it comes to it, I can pay you. After all, you have a strong waist. I've enjoyed your service over the past half a year.”
  • What on earth does this infuriating woman take me for? A surge of anger ignited within him, and he seized her throat directly, his voice laced with a chilling edge. “Tallulah, I'll make you understand the consequences of provoking me!”
  • With that, he kissed her fiercely.
  • He was nowhere near as gentle as he used to be.
  • Tallulah shut her eyes, her eyelashes quivering intensely as she held him tight.
  • Tears slid down from the corner of her eyes.
  • She acted this way simply because she was trying to find traces of their past in him.
  • He was Stavros, but he was also her beloved Stavvy.
  • She indeed knew the consequences, which led to her only getting three hours of sleep that night. During her moments of deep vulnerability, she clung to him, repeatedly calling out his name. Stavvy, you belong to me. As long as I'm still alive, I'll never divorce you.
  • The following day, Tallulah was late, which resulted in a deduction from her salary. The folks from the HR department said it was a direct order from Stavros.
  • Tallulah gritted her teeth, internally rolling her eyes. What a petty sc*mbag! It was just a slap! He's so quick to seek his revenge on me.
  • She was rather naive. After the morning meeting ended, Zayne walked straight over to her and said, “This report requires on-site research. You should go.”
  • Tallulah took a glance and to her surprise, it was a construction site.
  • She frowned instantly.
  • Zayne asked, “Do you have any questions about Mr. Luzzatto's arrangements?”
