"All right. Forget it then." Janet stood up and picked up her clothes from the sofa.

"What's wrong with you?" Ethan frowned and grabbed her wrist.

The drastic change in her reaction surprised him.

"Nothing." Janet withdrew her hand from his hold.

She decided to remain calm and not reveal her emotions.

Janet had married Ethan only for her old maid's medical expenses and didn't have any expectations from him. Divorce was always an option in case he found out she wasn't Jocelyn, the woman he was supposed to marry.

But still, knowing that Ethan didn't care about her made her heart sink with disappointment.

Perhaps she had unknowingly gotten attached to him since they had become intimate.

"You are not allowed to touch or kiss me anymore. We are just a nominal couple, Ethan. If you dare to touch me again, I will move out of this house." Janet was not in the mood to talk to Ethan anymore.

Ethan's brows furrowed, and his face darkened. "Did I say something wrong? I'm sorry if I did."

He never got the chance to make love to her, and now she wasn't even allowing him to touch her.

"You didn't do anything wrong. I'm fine." Janet stepped back to keep a distance from him. Then, she returned to her room, hiding her disappointment.

Ethan could tell that Janet was upset about something. He had a keen intuition as a businessman, but he couldn't understand what was going on in his wife's mind and what was bothering her.

Ethan felt dejected. How could she deprive him of the right to kiss her?

He had just leaned on Janet's shoulder but didn't do anything to offend her.

They had made out countless times in the past, and she had never resisted it. 'What's with the sudden change in her attitude?'

He couldn't figure out what was on her mind.

Janet came out of her room during dinner. A faint smile graced her face, but it was not as genuine as a few days ago.

Ethan felt upset and confused. The growing distance made him uncomfortable.
