Under the Veil I Rule

Chapter 255

"And to be honest, Dorian's heart isn't really with me. Even if I chased Jessica away, there'd always be an Emily or a Rachel after her, so it is what it is."

"If he really wants to see where things go with Jessica, I'm not going to stop him. Who knows, maybe they've already got something going on."

"From now on, we'll just be in an open marriage. We can both do our own thing, and I'll just keep the title of being his wife."

So, they agreed on not being physically exclusive anymore. Emotionally, she still loved Dorian, and as long as she held the title of his wife, that was enough for her.

"This sounds good," Amara said. "But remember, if Dorian does get involved with someone else, you might still feel upset. You need to brace yourself for that."

"Even if you have someone else by then, people are usually double standards about these things."

Elysia chuckled and nodded, "Alright, I'll listen to the wise playwright."
