Ex Cried as I Wed a Tycoon

Chapter 354

Vera glanced at Suzan's belly and said, "You're pregnant, so of course Mitchell can't be intimate with you right now. It's normal for him to feel a bit lonely. But snapping at him isn't the way-it just pushes him further away."

Suzan had to admit, ever since she'd started arguing with Mitchell more often, he'd definitely grown distant.

Anxious and worried, she asked, "Mom, what should I do?"

Vera took her hand. "Come with me—I'm going to help you pick out something nice to wear for the night."

"Nightwear? That's not necessary. I already have plenty."

Vera shook her head. "Not the right kind."

Suzan followed Vera into a boutique specializing in lingerie. Only then did she realize what her mother meant by "not the right kind."

All the pajamas Suzan thought were sexy suddenly seemed utterly tame compared to what filled these racks.

"Mom, these... these are barely more than scraps of fabric. Is this even wearable?"

Vera gave her an exasperated look. "You're just wearing it at home, not out on the street. What are you worried about? If you want to keep Mitchell's heart, you have to make the effort. So, are you in or not?"
