It was dead silent in the pitch dark room.

Jordan said gently, “Lauren, you… you’re still awake?”

Lauren turned sideways to face Jordan.

“Honey, you know what? I’ve waited three whole years for this day. Often I’ve fantasized about being your wife. Perhaps even every day. My dream was to marry you. I don’t dare to beg you to love me as much as you love Victoria and I don’t ask for much either. I just want to be like an ordinary woman who leads a normal life and has a loving husband.

“Honey, please don’t neglect me, okay?”

Lauren wasn’t a fool and she could obviously tell that Jordan had been deliberately neglecting her for the last two hours.

Jordan was put in a difficult spot. “Lauren…”

Lauren said pitifully, “Honey, I’ve never experienced the joy of being a woman in my life. I’m already 26 years old, I don’t want to wait until I’m 30…”

Jordan was both shocked and sympathetic towards Lauren. He was shocked that Lauren’s only sexual encounter was when he slept with her in Syria four years ago.

Besides, that wasn’t a pleasant memory for Lauren but an agonizing one.

Since then… To think that she hadn’t slept with a single man before. It came as a surprise to Jordan.

It was indeed quite pitiful for a woman who was almost 30 years old. After all, beautiful women like Lauren usually had lots of suitors.

Jordan sighed in self-reproach, knowing that he was the cause of Lauren’s current plight. Since he had married Lauren, the only thing he could do now was to make her happy. He had to do so even if it was only for a short period of time.

Jordan gently caressed Lauren’s hair in the dark and let his lips roam down as he kissed her…
