"Please don't let me go! Tell me if you want to face it all with me!". Julian thought with hope.

However, Qiara didn't stop him from leaving either, his heart ached even more.

"Okay, I'll go and give you some time to think". Julian thought.

After that, Julian immediately left his house feeling chaotic. The wound on his back that was still wet didn't hurt anymore because his heart was much more aching with the fear and worry of being abandoned.

Meanwhile, Qiara was crying profusely in her room. She didn't expect it to be like this in the end.

She loves Julian, but at the same time she can't lie to her feelings.

"Mother, what should I do?". Qiara thought as she remembered her mother.

Just at that time, the sound of her cell phone rang, instantly she saw the caller ID.

"Boss Maxwell?". Qiara frowned at the caller ID.

Before accepting it, Qiara took a deep breath while wiping her tears.

"Hello boss?". Qiara said first after sliding the green icon on her cellphone.

"Are you alright?". Maxwell asked who could sense that Qiara was in a bad state from her voice. 

"I'm fine! What's the boss calling?". Qiara replied lazily.

"Can we meet today? There's something important I want to talk to you about!".

Qiara was silent for a moment, not long after that she remembered the story. She must meet Maxwell to find out the truth. 

"Where, boss?".

"I'll send you the location!".

"Yes".

After that, Qiara immediately hung up the phone, she then tidied up her appearance and added make-up to disguise her slightly swollen face after crying. 

Nathan's house.

After making love, Clara was happy that Nathan didn't go to London. She was even happier when Nathan wanted to touch her again.

Just then, she felt Nathan roll to the side and get out of bed without using a single cloth. 

After that he went to the bathroom, Clara still felt tired so she chose to stay in bed without moving anymore.

There was the sound of dripping water from the bathroom, Clara tried to open her eyes again and looked around. 

She smiled and looked at the clothes scattered on the floor, at that moment she remembered Nathan's affection. Her fingers unconsciously squeezed the blanket with her cheeks flushed red.

"I hope we will have children soon, we have made love many times and Nathan never dumped her even before we got married, but why haven't I been pregnant until now?". Inner Clara.

They had been married a few months, but Nathan's attitude towards her was still normal. Clara didn't even understand what Nathan was thinking.

Yet during her marriage, she always served Nathan the best she could. Prepare food and clothes. Serve him in bed as best as possible. But Nathan hasn't moved his heart to love her yet. 

Was it for Nathan only to satisfy his lust?

Just then, the bathroom door opened. Clara was stunned when she saw Nathan coming out of the bathroom. 

Nathan only used a towel around his waist, revealing a very broad and broad front that was very attractive to any woman who saw it.

Nathan's handsome face had a voluptuous aura, the color of his eyeballs was very black but his gaze was blank when he saw Clara. There was no love in those eyes for Clara.

Nathan stepped his tall feet across in front of her, not even looking at Clara.

After that, Nathan immediately took off the towel and put on his clothes casually.

Clara's strength when squeezing the blanket increased slightly, she took a slow breath.

"Where are you going?". Clara asked in a weak tone.

Instead of answering, Nathan walked slowly towards the bed. His eyelids lifted slightly, his eyes fixed on Clara's body which was not covered by the blanket.

There was no expression on Nathan's face, his eyes were very flat, but instead had an aura of pressure behind them, so Clara felt a little uneasy.

"Is he really Nathan? Why do I feel a different aura from him today?". Clara thought in surprise.

"Wherever I go, it's none of your business!". Nathan answered while observing Clara's beautiful face.

Clara was stunned and at a loss for words. 

Nathan saw the confused look in Clara's eyes, then smiled as if she just now understood, then sneered at her without hesitation. "I forgot that you consider yourself to be my wife. Therefore, you feel the need to ask about all my activities. Even though you are only satisfying my lust, which is not important when it is not needed".

Clara clenched her fists, she was angry but couldn't show it to Nathan because she loved him so much. 

"At least you are responsible to me for enjoying my body". Clara said while struggling to hold back her tears. 

"Weren't you the one who gave your body to me? So, why are you holding me accountable? Are you crazy?".

Nathan's voice was very soft but it pierced Clara's heart, Nathan's words were like an arrow that pierced her heart. Immediately, Clara's face turned pale. 

Clara realized that from the start she was the one who had offered her body to Nathan. But Nathan enjoyed it, that meant she had the right to hold him accountable.

The two of them had become husband and wife, but Clara felt she was not a wife but a prostitute in Nathan's eyes.

"Whatever you say, will not be able to change the fact that I am your wife Nathan Al Vero!". Clara shouted, starting to lose her temper. 

Nathan laughed sarcastically, after that his long slender fingers lifted Clara's chin gently, his eyes narrowed slightly, suddenly Clara's face looked even paler.

"I'll give you an explanation!" Nathan took a deep breath before continuing his speech. 

Clara waited for what Nathan would say without saying anything.

"I did marry you, but it was because of my parents' coercion. And from the start I told you that I would never be able to love you or consider you as a wife. I don't need to tell you who I love?".. Nathan said, smiling sarcastically at Clara.
