Chapter 167 - She's Acting Weird!

After that, she looked back at Dexter, "I used to always dream, I hope my marriage life is like my parents' married life. They are so sweet and sometimes I envy them."

Kaili stopped her words, Dexter hugged her again, "Do you think our marriage is not harmonious? Or not warm enough? Where is the lack, tell me, so we can work it out. The wife of a Dexter can't be jealous of anything, not even your parents!" Dexter said firmly, but gently.

If other women heard his words earlier, they would immediately be lulled, soaring high until they reached the blue sky. How come? His words had sounded so convincing and so sincere.

If this had been in the past, Kaili would have felt the same way. Unfortunately, after she found out one of this man's lies, she turned into a fright.

"Oh, no, no!!!" Kaili hastily answered. She didn't want Dexter to be suspicious of her.

Two seconds later, she added, "I'm just idolizing my parents' marriage relationship, and I hope that someday we can be like them, together... together until we grow old." Kaili was a little hesitant to say the words at the end of her sentence.

"Of course! Darling, don't doubt our strong love relationship. You know me well, right, I can't live without you!"

After chasing her for five years, of course Dexter wouldn't let her go!

'Once I get, I will not let go!' the love expression of the love chaser!

"I hope so too..." Kaili fell silent again. Her head was on Dexter's chest, allowing her to hear her husband's heartbeat clearly. His heart beat strongly, but regularly. Hearing Dexter's heartbeat, made Kaili's heart also beat very fast.

Sigh!

She sighed harshly.

"Dexter..."

After a moment of silence, the call that came from the low volume of the voice revived the atmosphere.

"Hmm..." Dexter just cleared his throat. Since then, his hand had not stopped stroking Kaili's long hair.

"Let's make an agreement!"

"Agreement?" Dexter was a little confused.

"Hmm... like, a promise?" Kaili corrected her words. "I've heard the slogan, 'everything that begins with a lie ends in ruin'."

Kaili's chest tightened as she said this. Even her throat seemed to be injured, to the point of not being able to swallow her saliva! Her soul was frightened, as if ready to fly because suddenly she thought of their relationship which would end in ruin because of lies.

Not only Kaili, but Dexter also felt the same. His chest heaved when he heard his wife's last words as if there was no air in this room, he was having trouble breathing!

For God's sake, he didn't mean to lie, and he himself was confused, where to start with the lie he was currently playing.

One minute later, Kaili continued her words, "Let's promise Dexter, promise not to lie to each other so that our relationship lasts for 100 years, as worshipers of love expect." Kaili laughed saying that, even though at this moment her heart was so scared.

Dexter looked at Kaili with furrowed brow, how could he make that promise, while their relationship also started with lies and manipulation.

Just as Dexter was getting ready to answer, the wall chime rang four times, signaling it was 4 am. It was dawn, but neither of them had slept at all!

"Gosh... We were so busy chatting that we forgot to sleep, even though we still have work to do!" Kaili mumbled cheerfully. She had decided to forget what she just said, because judging by the look on Dexter's face, the man was having a hard time answering.

"Let's go to sleep, honey..." Kaili gave him her best smile. She also voluntarily pulled the blanket up to her chest and Dexter.

This was the first time she had called Dexter honey, but somehow it wasn't as beautiful as Dexter had imagined? He felt pressure when Kaili called him that.

Dexter creased his forehead, but his gaze did not leave Kaili. Now the woman was lying close to him as usual. But... he felt as if the air in this room put some distance between them.

Kaili smiled sweetly being stared at by Dexter. She raised her body slightly and then landed a kiss for Dexter. Her hand then touched the man's cheek and calmly said, "Goodnight!"

After that, she didn't want to care more about anything and fell asleep right away. Dexter stared in silence at the sleeping woman with her back to him. He felt Kaili was so different. What really happened? Dexter had to figure this out fast!

The hands of the clock are spinning very fast, the sun's rays are slowly starting to fill the earth. Kaili immediately got up.

Sleeping only two hours was certainly not enough, but considering the work that had piled up, Kaili's sense of laziness soon disappeared. She was getting ready to go to the office. Likewise with Dexter.

Before starting their daily activities, usually, this married couple would start by simply having breakfast together. This time, it was the same, nothing had changed.

It seemed, Kaili had started to get used to harboring her curiosity.

Kaili placed a glass of vanilla milk in front of Dexter, the man smiled, took it, and had a sip.

Kaili also handed him bread that she had already baked, "Here... Eat." She placed the plate containing the bread next to the glass filled with milk.

Dexter just smiled and enjoyed the toast while occasionally looking at his cell phone.

Since Kenzie's arrival to country J, Aunt Inandi had rarely come to the Sky Garden apartment because she had to take care of the second young master who was so spoiled in Garden Park.

Dexter had also told the reason for Aunt Inandi's absence and Kaili could understand. Because with just one look, it was clear that Kenzie was very spoiled.

Today Kaili only provided white bread and several types of jam that were purchased at the supermarket. Dexter had no problem with that either, whatever his wife provided he would be very happy.

"This bread tastes even more delicious since it was prepared by your hand." Dexter looked at his wife while enjoying the bread that Kaili gave him.

Being teased like that made Kaili blushed. This was her weakness. Even though she knew she had been lied to, the love that resided in her heart did not necessarily disappear. She still loved this man.

Love was like that, it was clearly rigged but still, it was not easy to get rid of that feeling!

Out of the corner of his eye, Dexter could see his wife's blushing face, his heart was happy again! How not, last night Kaili asked something so confusing, but this morning his wife was back as usual. He was so happy!

Dexter touched Kaili's hand which was on the table. Their hands overlap for a second, but Kaili violently withdrew her hand. Her face also looked like she was dodging in fear. That was right, since last night, Kaili seemed to be afraid of him! What happened?

Thinking of all this, made Dexter's forehead frown even more!

"What is it?" Dexter asked softly.

"I-I want to eat. That… I wanted to eat, so I instinctively pulled my hand away." Kaili was nervous, she bit her lower lip.

Dexter wanted to ask her again, but he didn't want Kaili to get into trouble. It was clearly seen that this woman looked difficult to find an answer.

"Alright, finish your meal. I'll take you to your workplace." Dexter wiped his mouth.

Kaili quickly refused, "Ah, no, there's no need. Your office and my workplace are not in the same direction."

Dexter's forehead creased again, "My office?" He asked in surprise.

Badump!

Kaili almost slipped out. She should not have said that

"Umm, I mean the hospital. Your office is in the hospital, it's not in the same direction as SaBi." Kaili smiled awkwardly as she explained her answer.

Dexter didn't want to bother with that either, "Hmph... But I want to take you. Get ready, let's go together." Rarely did he get to take his wife, but Kaili couldn't refuse!

"Ah, no need Dexter, I have a car. Let us go individually!"

Dexter looked disappointed but he also couldn't force Kaili, it would make her uncomfortable.

"Hmph... Alright. If I can't take you to your workplace, can we go to the lobby together?"

"Eh..." Kaili immediately felt really bad! Even to go down to the lobby together, Dexter had to ask for permission. It seemed that her refusal was too outrageous?

Kaili bit her lip, then nodded slowly. She was also uncomfortable giving another refusal.

"Hmph… Okay." A sweet smile etched on the woman's sexy lips.

"I thought you would reject me again." Dexter sneered at her but smiled mockingly.

"Reject? How could it be? Dexter, what are you thinking? Is this the first time I refuse you to take me?"

Dexter thought for a while. It was true, this wasn't the first time Kaili had refused his invitation to take her.. Moreover, this wife wanted to turn into an independent woman.
