Who's Crying Now, Ex-Husband?

Chapter 361

She tried to get out of bed to make him leave, but a firm hand pressed her down, pinning her to the mattress.

"Don't move."

Her bandaged shoulder, aggravated by the struggle, began to bleed again, staining Mila's shirt crimson. Lysander's expression didn't change in the slightest. His voice was cold and unwavering. "Mila, we're still married. As long as that's true, you don't have the right to refuse me-not tonight, not ever. So don't test my patience."

Mila's eyes burned with rage. This man always knew exactly how to get under her skin. She gritted her teeth. "Is this all you know how to do? Bully and threaten?"

"If it works, why stop?"

With that, Lysander climbed onto the bed, trapping her beneath him and pulling the covers over them both. "Settle down. Go to sleep."

Shaking with anger, Mila struggled, then deliberately rammed her head into the spot on Lysander's chest where she'd wounded him earlier. He grunted, then let out a low, almost amused laugh, but his grip only tightened, holding her closer.

He really was utterly shameless-a man who lived by his own rules, caring nothing for right or wrong.

Could she really make it through the thirty-day waiting period? The thought crept in, bringing with it a wave of anxiety.

No. She had to get out of the country as soon as possible.
