36 Ways To Chase After My Wife's Love Chapter 4
Advertisement
Kaili finally decided to stay in the living room, because she thought there was no other choice. She was so afraid of upsetting Dexter, even more so. To be precise, she didn't want to hear the harsh words Dexter would have thrown at her, her heart wouldn't be strong any more if that happened.
On the sofa, Kaili laid down her body, which felt very tired, especially in her heart, too tired to accept the reality that happened today.
"Hopefully after sleeping, everything will be fine," Kaili muttered and tried to close her eyes.
Just as Kaili was about to enjoy a dream that was beginning to show her presence, Dexter's cold and cruel voice filled her ears. "A big lady from the Goh family can sleep soundly on a small sofa!"
And managed to make Kaili gasp quickly got up and sat down.
"Dexter ... D-do you need something?" Even though she was very nervous, Kaili managed to say that.
"Need something ... Sounds interesting." Dexter lifted Kaili's chin. "Isn't this our first night? We should be doing something interesting, right? "
Kaili's eyes were rounded. The heart was beating fast. "W-what do you want?" She said quickly without eliminating the nervousness roaring.
"What do I want? Ha ha ha ... Kaili - Kaili, what joke are you playing? Want to try to pretend to be an innocent woman, do you think? " The corners of Dexter's lips lifted up. "Innocent by making a statement that means 'temptation' like that? You're teasing me, aren't you, asking me what I need right? "
"I do ... not." Kaili quickly denied it. How could she dare to seduce this man, even though he was legally her husband?
"Who believed your poisonous mouth, my dear wife?" Dexter took a seat beside Kaili.
"M-Mister Dexter ..." Kaili swallowed his saliva. "P-please don't be like this." Kaili prepared to push Dexter's chest because the man was puffing his chest at Kaili even more.

"If it's not like this, then what do you want?" Dexter smiled a little. If only this was in the past, Kaili might have felt that Dexter's smile was sculpted especially for her because of love, but now everything was different, the man in front of her didn't love her anymore, and the smile he put on was proof of Dexter's deep hatred to her. Yes, just an ironic smile.
"I-I haven't showered, can I borrow the bathroom?" Kaili ventured to speak.
"Oh ... Borrowing the bathroom?" Again and again, Dexter's voice sounded scornful. 'I don't know what's wrong this time,' Kaili thought.
"Right, how could you be willing to live in a slum, cramped and ugly house like this. No wonder you just say 'borrow' to use my little bathroom. Isn't my apartment the size of your bathroom?"
"Huh ... I-"
Dexter grabbed Kaili's jaw, his eyes darkening. "No matter what your short mind is designed to do, or how you change to escape from me, as long as the divorce doesn't happen, as long as you are still Dexter Chiro's wife, you won't be able to get out of my grasp. Remember that! No matter how much you try to leave, I can tell you, it will only waste your energy. Better throw away everything you plan! "
"I ... I don't. Not designed anything at all," Kaili replied, turning her face to the side. It was clear that she was very reluctant to look at Dexter. That made Dexter even angrier.
'This woman doesn't dare to look at me while talking, am I so disgusting?' Dexter thought.
Guessing that, Dexter released Kaili violently. His eagle eyes still gave off a clear rage of anger. He coldly said, "You better remember carefully what I said earlier. You are already mine, so there will be no place for you to go! "

As Dexter about to leave, Kaili called out to him, "Dexter ..."
Although Dexter didn't turn around, Kaili's summons made him stop in his tracks. "Can I ask you?" Kaili added after many times salivating and planting courage in her heart.
Dexter still didn't turn around, but Kaili could see from the side that the eagle-eyed man was squinting. "Do you still love me?"
For God's sake, it felt like Kaili would rather just die. She wanted to dig a hole and go inside to bury her face after saying such a shameless thing. Didn't know where that courage came from.
Dexter was also stunned by Kaili's words, something that was difficult and didn't dare to think about beforehand. Dexter also turned to look at Kaili. Now his expression was even more creepy than before.
'Of course, you said the things he didn't want to hear the most, Kaili, you're dead, your time on this earth is over,' Kaili muttered.
Slowly but surely, Dexter drew closer towards Kaili. Kaili's feeling was so uncomfortable, her heart seemed ready to stop. Dexter's move was like a ticking time bomb that was exploding, the one getting closer and closer made Kaili unable to control her heart. Seeing Dexter's dark face, she was really scared.
"Hemp ... Y-you ..." Kaili tried to open her voice, but all the words she wanted to say were left in her throat.
"Please, repeat your question earlier?" Dexter said with a wicked smile. Kaili knew what it meant when it was like this, all she got was ridicule.
"..." Kaili was silent. She was very confused about what to answer.
"Do I still love you, do I?" Dexter's smile grew wider. Shown flat, white teeth. His smile looked very mocking.
"What if I still love you? Are you going to turn around and love me? Then, after that, we live like a romantic husband and wife until death separates, like the wedding vows you mentioned on the altar earlier?"
Kaili raised her eyes and looked boldly into Dexter's eyes. This man ... Since when did he become so cruel? Anyone who wasn't deaf can believe that what Dexter said was ridiculous. That's an insult.
Kaili wanted to slap him, throwing some of the pain that lodged more and more in her chest after Dexter's last phrase. However, she realized, wasn't this what she deserved? So it must be accepted, right?
"Why? You suddenly became mute after marrying me, is it too uncomfortable to be side by side with a small man who doesn't have the power and abundant wealth like me? Wait ... if I remember correctly, our last chat was about how allergic you are when you are close to an incapable man like me, right? You haven't forgotten that, have you, my dear wife?"
"..." Kaili fell silent. True, it all left her mouth, but at that moment circumstances forced her. She deliberately said that so that Dexter would stay away and hate her because it was difficult for her to get out of her father's arrangement for the arranged marriage. Kaili didn't want to hurt Dexter, more than she wanted to attract him to her troubles. Kaili knew exactly how her father's attitude was. Dexter would be destroyed if at that time they were determined to be together.
