Chapter155
Ashley:…” She felt awkward but not overly uncomfortable; they were married. She’d never tried to seduce him; it wouldn’t work. She usually wore loose pajamas. Her current top was loose and long; even without pants, it wasn’t revealing.
She explained, “I forgot my pants…”
But her figure was good; the top’s design showed off her legs, and her underwear was slightly visible. She’d just showered; her skin was white and glowing, giving her a pure look. The pajamas.
poked like a boyfriend’s shirt, more alluring than a sexy outfit.
Chase glanced at her, saying calmly, “Hmm.” Ashley was relieved he didn’t misunderstand and said nothing, going to the closet.
When she came out, Chase was still in the room. She glanced at him and sat at the vanity, doing her skincare routine. Chase went to shower.
She went to bed; she didn’t expect to fall asleep easily but realized Chase would likely go to Tanya after showering. He might not stay. She fell asleep.
The next day, she woke up alone. After getting ready, she went downstairs; the matriarch was already awake. Before she could speak, Chase returned, in his workout clothes, looking like he’d just finished jogging. He greeted the matriarch, “Morning.”
The matriarch looked at them, unhappy, “You’re both up so early?”
Ashley found it strange. Chase calmly said, “I studied pharmacology. Your soup was useless to me.” He went upstairs.
Ashley paused, realizing he meant the matriarch had drugged their soup… He hadn’t drunk it. She frowned. Before she could speak, the matriarch sighed, “Sometimes, knowing too much isn’t good. I want another grandchild. Ashley, try harder with Chase.”
