Goodbye Cheater Hello CEO’s Wife by Payne Walter

Chapter 30

Clayton gently squeezed habella’s hand. He had never felt that satisfied before. He had fantasized about that scenario for many years and couldn’t believe that it had come true so quickly.

“Clayson, the way we are right now, it’s what dating looks like, right?” Isabella walked backward, her gaze fixed on their clasped hands

Clayton smiled and asked, “Are you happy, Mrs. Murray?”

Tabella oled.

“Then it is” Clayton replied.

Isabella inquired. “Clayton, what do you want me to do for you!”

Zachary had outlined numerous expectations for her as his girlfriend, specifying what she could and couldn’t do. There were many rules to follow.

“Do things for me?” asked

Clayton

“Yeah” Isabella nodded solemnly. She decided to give it a shot with Clayton. Since he liked her, she figured she’d become someone he’d enjoy being with His kindness toward her was evident. Even if it were to express gratitude, Isabella was determined to become the person he liked

Clayton stopped and stroked her head. “Little girl, I just want you to be happy. His eyes held a clear reflection of Isabella’s form, revealing his affection and indulgence

“Why are you so nice to me?” Tears shimmered in Isabella’s eyes

|| Clayton couldn’t resist lightly pecking her red lips. “Because you’re my dear wife“

Poor girl. She can’t even believe it when someone treats her well. She has retreated into a shell and hid her true self securely, Clayton mused.

He held Isabella’s hand and said slowly, “Mrs. Murray, you’re married now. You have your own home, and you’re the lady of the house. Do whatever you want. Don’t be afraid. With me around, you can relax! I hope you’ll be happy every day, okay?”

Tears welled up in Isabella’s eyes. He would never know how much she wished for a home of her own, a safe space free from prying eyes and mistreatment. Her tears fell on Clayton’s hand as she whispered, “Thank you, Clayton”

ring again?” Clayton compassionately lifted Isabella’s face and gently wiped away the tears. He added, “Be happy, my dear wife”

Isabella pursed her lips slightly and nodded against his hand. Her tearful demeanor made Clayton’s heart flutter, and he kissed her lips with overwhelming tenderness.

This time, Isabella closed her eyes, meekly allowing him to take the lead.

The sweet taste left Clayton unable to resist. It was the first jime Isabella had accepted his kiss.

The love in the air wafted through the quiet, empty street,

She had squandered love. Moving forward, she vowed to protect herself, steering clear of love and its pain. The man before me treats me well. Maybe I should cater to his likes as a way of saying thanks, Isabella thought

Suddenly, her phone rang, its gentle melody echoing her docile nature

Isabella struggled out of Clayton’s embrace. “M–My phone,” she said.

Clayton refused to back off and kept moving closer
