Emmeline smiled and nodded, “Yes, it’s a little uncomfortable.”

Evelyn said, “I knew it. Mr. Abel is just taking care of you because he has no choice.”

Emmeline chuckled, “Hehe. You’re right that he has no choice. After all, if he doesn’t take care of me, who else could?”

The reason she was in pain was because he had gone too hard in bed. Naturally, he had to bear the responsibility.

Evelyn reassured herself, “Mr. Abel is a sentimental man. Even though he doesn’t love you anymore, he still takes care of you. That’s the kind of man I like.”

Emmeline narrowed her eyes and asked, “Then what of you and Abel? Have you two finally developed feelings after so long?”

“…” Evelyn’s expression turned gloomy for a moment before replying, “I like our relationship now. There’s plenty of time for feelings later on.”

“Is that so?”

Evelyn had a haughty expression as she said, “Yes, it is. At least he’s not just being nice to me out of obligation like he does you. Since he doesn’t love you anymore, why shouldn’t he be able to love me? Not to mention, we have an arranged marriage, so our relationship will only get better with time.”

Emmeline smiled, “Well, aren’t you the confident one? I’m quite impressed really.”
