Chapter 39 Needing Comfort Under her hazy gaze , Charlotte looked at his cold , stern face .
His eyes , darkened with desire , held no warmth as they locked onto hers .
His words felt like a sharp blade , stabbing mercilessly into her heart .
She had once adored his eyes .
Every time he looked at her , she believed he loved her deeply .
But now , all of that seemed like a cruel joke .
Without thinking , she raised her hand to slap him across the face .
Arthur , however , easily caught her wrist .
He pushed her aside with a swift motion , making her body shudder , her full chest following suit .
The desire in Arthurs eyes only deepened as he leaned in to kiss her .
Charlottes gaze grew distant as she stared at the familiar ceiling above .
This was their master bedroom , the place where they had shared countless passionate nights .
But now , all she wanted was to escape .
No … I dont want this … Her voice cracked , rough and soft , her body tensing , despite her physical response .
Even though her body betrayed her , her heart was full of resistance .
The moment she spoke , his fury surged , and his presence darkened , as if he were about to tear her apart .
But just then , the shrill ring of a phone cut through the tension .
It was a call from Sarah .
Arthur froze .
He glanced at her body , marked by their shared intimacy , his desire momentarily suppressed .
He turned away and answered the call .
Hello ? His voice , once cold and harsh , now carried a subtle softness .
Charlotte wrapped the blanket around herself tightly .
Okay , dont worry .
Ill be right there , Arthur said calmly .
He straightened his clothes , briefly glancing at the figure under the blanket .
With an icy tone , he added , When I get back , I expect to see Julius eating a proper meal .
His words were sharp , and the underlying threat was clear .
Charlotte didnt dare challenge him .
He turned and left in a hurry , his footsteps echoing down the hall .
After a long silence , Charlotte finally emerged from the blanket .
She took a quick shower and then walked into the walk in closet .
As she entered , the lights flickered on .
The section for womens clothes was empty because she had gotten rid of everything .

5/7 So she grabbed one of his sweaters and paired it with a pair of sweatpants , tightening the waistband before heading downstairs .
In the dining room , Julius sat at the table , eating slowly , even though it was just a simple salad .
He finished every bite carefully .
When he saw her come down , his eyes reddened , but he quickly looked away .
Yet his stiff profile betrayed his feelings .
He was hurt , upset , and clearly needed comfort .
Charlotte cast him a complex , unreadable look before turning back into the kitchen .
When she returned , she had prepared a lavish meal .
She set it all on the table before turning to leave .
You … Julius voice trembled as he called her , but the words caught in his throat .
She turned back , her expression steady .
If you think its forced , dont call me .
I dont even remember having a son .
Julius stood frozen , his gaze locked on her .
He said nothing , but tears shimmered in his eyes .
When he was sick before , she would always comfort him so gently .

He had been waiting for her to do just that .
