In a cake shop, Doris Heywood got the birthday cake and quickly dialed her husband's number. She was smiling expectantly.

"Hey, hubby, do you get off work? Do you still remember that today is …"

"I still have work to do, so I'm not free tonight." The man on the phone interrupted her.

Hearing what he said, Doris's smile vanished.

Yesterday she reminded him that today it was her birthday.

Although she was very disappointed, Doris concealed her feelings and said to him in an extremely gentle and sensible manner, "Oh, ok. Hubby, don't be too late, and don't let yourself be too

"Hum." The man on the phone merely said it and hung up.

This man had always spoken concisely.

Doris put down her phone in disappointment. Up until now, she had always felt as if she hadn't gotten married.

His attitude towards her was not like that of a normal husband towards his wife.

Sometimes, Doris also wondered why he was so cold to her since he had proposed to her on one's own initiative, which is strange. And when he had sex with her at night, he was also exceptionally passionate…

After a while, Doris took her mind back and walked out with the cake.

"Bang!"

Just as she was walking, she was suddenly hit by someone, and the cake in Doris's hand was knocked over.

She frowned in pain.

"Sorry, I didn't mean it. Are you alright?" A gentle female voice sounded. The woman apologized to her and quickly helped pick up the cake on the floor. "Ah, this cake is broken. I'll compensate you."

Doris looked at the pile of money in her hand and hurriedly said, "No need, and my cake is not worth …"

However, before she could finish speaking, the woman in front of her had already turned around and left.

Staring at the woman's back for a few seconds, Doris chased after her.

It wasn't because that woman had given her too much money that she chased after her.

Instead, Doris suddenly recognized that this woman was Julia Kent, her new colleague who had just entered the company.

"Hey, wait! Hey! Julia …" Doris wanted to catch up with Julia because Julia had something to do with her.

Ever since Julia entered the company, there were always people in the company who discussed the relationship between Julia and her husband in private, affecting her husband's reputation.

Therefore, Doris always wanted to find an opportunity to chat with Julia, so that Julia could behave herself.

Doris could not tolerate anyone damaging her husband's reputation.

She cherished her husband's reputation far more than she loved herself, so she was willing to conceal her marriage until now.

There was a huge difference between her and her husband's family background, so she was afraid that she would make him become the object of gossip.

"Julia!"

"Julia…"

Doris chased after her all the way. She shouted very loudly, but Julia did not seem to hear her and continued to walk on her own.

When she caught up to the parking lot, Doris suddenly froze, and the scene in front of her shocked her.

Ten meters away from her, her husband, who was supposed to work overtime, appeared here. Julia intimately tugged at Doris's husband's arm. A coquettish smile appeared on her face as she pulled Doris's husband, and then they got into the car together.

Didn't her husband say he had to work overtime?

Why were her husband and Julia together…

At night, Doris waited on the sofa for an unknown amount of time before falling asleep. In a daze, she felt something pressing down on her body.

"Hubby…"

Her husband was passionate and restrained when he had sex with her. He was gentle and rude to her.

Doris lay on the bed exhausted and looked at the man who was smoking in front of the window. He had always been used to smoking after having sex.

The smoke he spat out surrounded him, causing her not to see his face clearly. Every time she would feel that he was strange and distant to her.

But they had been married for three years, slept together for three years, and were the closest people to each other.
