My Bossy CEO Husband

Chapter 159: A Little Heartbroken 

It only lasted for a split second! Faye endeavored to project a relaxed demeanor, but her pretense could not deceive the discerning audience.

At the sound of the emperor's voice, she instinctively lowered herself deeper into the water.

She did not turn around but continued to pour water on herself.

She asked innocently, "Your Majesty, why have you returned?"

Faye spoke indifferently.But the emperor liked this side of her.

Hearing this, he knitted his eyebrows slightly.

"Won't you welcome me?"

"Of course I welcome you with open arms, Your Majesty.But I'm concerned that for the past month, you have only come and rested in my bedroom.This is totally against the rules.You know that on the first day of each month, you have to go to the empress's palace.Have you forgotten that it is the first day of a new month today?"

The emperor appeared nonchalant and continued to bathe her with scented, rose-petalled water.

"People just set the rules, and they are not cast in stone.I can change them whenever I like."

"I have been in your palace for just one month yet every day you have only visited my bedroom.I'm afraid that this unhealthy behavior of yours won't be taken lightly.I have offended your other concubines even before meeting them!"

The emperor stroked her shoulder and asked, "You have met Ivanka and the empress, haven't you?"

"Yes, the empress is well-educated, generous and virtuous.She is an exemplary role model."

But she didn't mention Lady Ivanka.The emperor frowned at once.He turned around to face her.

"Did lvanka embarrass you?"

Faye dodged his eyes.

"Lady Ivanka is also virtuous and gentle.Why would she make things difficult for me?"

However, judging from her reaction, he was convinced that she had been bullied by Ivanka.

His face darkened.

"I have indulged her for so many years! She has become spoilt!"

Faye remained silent.

After a while, she pushed his hand away.

"Faye?"

She lowered her eyes and said plainly, "Your Majesty, I advise you to go to the empress''s palace tonight.Your love for me will be the root cause that your other concubines will target me in the future.I can sense that this situation will spell trouble.Before I entered the palace, I was a regular girl who came from a normal affluent family.But my father had many concubines and I witnessed the modus operandi they indulged in to win his favor.It was not a pretty sight and led to endless heartache.That was the situation in a normal merchant family.So it leaves little to the imagination how virulent the cat fights amongst concubines in an imperial family will be."

The emperor was forced to contemplate upon her weighty words.

all I wanted was to marry an ordinary and simple man with whom I could respectfully grow old.I didn't imagine that my fate would bring me here as your wife in such a prestigious imperial family.Now
