Sydney sneered, "After seeing that woman's true colors, you suddenly discover you love me? Why didn't you love me all those years before?"

"Sydney, I'm slow and an idiot. I've realized my mistakes, and I'll do my best to make it up to you. You're my only wife," Wesley said humbly and sincerely.

"I'm still your wife," Sydney said, "and we've been together all these years. What more do you want?"

"I..."

Wesley didn't know what to say. He feared that if he said too much, Sydney would find him annoying. Although they were still married and often spent the night together, this relationship felt more like two people merely fulfilling each other's needs.

When they needed each other, they spent the night together; when they didn't, they ignored each other and pretended to be strangers.

What kind of marriage was this?

Wesley didn't want to discuss it further, afraid Sydney wouldn't even give him a little bit of attention.

"By the way, Sydney, someone just called you. He said it was about some official business," he said.

"You answered my phone?" Sydney demanded coldly.

"You were in the shower, and I was worried you might miss an important call, so I answered it for you. I'm sorry."
