The aroma of food slowly filled the apartment.

Jason stood in front of the stove wearing an apron that looked completely out of place on him. One hand held a spatula while he carefully stirred the soup in the pot.

Ruby stood nearby with her arms folded, quietly watching him.

"You've been stirring that soup for almost five minutes," she said.

Jason looked at the pot seriously. "I read that it shouldn't stick to the bottom."

Ruby couldn't help laughing. "I hope I'll be able to eat it."

  • Wife on Strike    Chapter 116: A Message Between Rivals

    The car pulled away from the Ivory Mansion at a steady pace.For the first few minutes, neither of them spoke. They were both sitting in the back seat while the driver drove quietly through the evening traffic.Dimitri glanced at Kelsey from time to time.She was looking out of the window quietly. Her face was calm, but it looked much paler than usual."You don't look well," he finally said.Kelsey turned to him. "I'm fine."Dimitri didn't believe her."You don't have to lie to me," he said, staring steadily at her. "Did Ramon do something to you?"Kelsey's eyes narrowed slightly at his words. "Why do you think so?"Dimitri shrugged. "He is good at hurting people."Kelsey became even more confused. She thought about his words for a moment before shaking her head."Ramon doesn't hurt people without a reason. He is just a cold person and doesn't care enough.""Wow," Dimitri said slowly. "You're defending him."Kelsey shook her head again."I'm not defending him," she replied confidently

    The aroma of food slowly filled the apartment.Jason stood in front of the stove wearing an apron that looked completely out of place on him. One hand held a spatula while he carefully stirred the soup in the pot.Ruby stood nearby with her arms folded, quietly watching him."You've been stirring that soup for almost five minutes," she said.Jason looked at the pot seriously. "I read that it shouldn't stick to the bottom."Ruby couldn't help laughing. "I hope I'll be able to eat it."Jason finally looked up at her. Seeing the smile on her face, the tension in his heart eased a little.Ruby still hadn't given him an answer about their relationship, but at least she was smiling again.Just then, Ruby's phone rang.She glanced at the screen."Kelsey."Her eyes immediately softened. She quickly answered the call as she walked out of the kitchen and into the living room."Kelsey!""I'm sorry, Ruby," Kelsey's voice came through first. "I just turned my phone on.""What is going on?" Ruby as

  • Wife on Strike    Chapter 114: Questions Without Answers

    Meanwhile...Kelsey slowly opened her eyes.Warm afternoon sunlight filtered through the curtains, filling the bedroom with a soft golden glow.She stared at the ceiling for a brief moment before slowly turning her head.She was in her bedroom at the Ivory Mansion.Unlike the first time she had woken up earlier that day, her mind was much clearer now.The family doctor had already examined her, given her medicine, and explained that the drug she had inhaled had severely weakened her body. She had only managed to stay awake for a short while before exhaustion pulled her back to sleep.Now, after several more hours of rest, she finally felt a little stronger.Much better than before."You're awake."Ramon's deep voice broke the silence.Kelsey turned toward him.He was sitting in the chair at the side of the room, quietly watching her.The untouched documents on the small table beside him made it obvious he hadn't been working. It seemed he had been sitting there for quite some time, ev

  • Wife on Strike    Chapter 113: The Truth Comes Out

    Ruby didn't say a word. She simply stared at Mary, carefully studying her expression. Jason misunderstood her silence. He thought she still didn't believe him. "Ruby, I'm telling you the truth." His voice was anxious. "Matteo is my late brother's son. Mary is my sister-in-law." Ruby still didn't respond. Her eyes never left Mary. Jason turned around and waved at her. "Mary, come here." Mary's heart skipped a beat. She stood where she was for a few seconds before slowly walking over. Every step felt heavy. When she stopped beside Jason, she swallowed nervously several times. "Is he telling the truth?" Ruby asked seriously. Mary lowered her head. "...Yes." Her voice was soft, and she didn't dare look Ruby in the eyes. Ruby stared at her for a long moment. Then she suddenly laughed. It wasn't a happy laugh. It was bitter. "So..." she asked calmly, "why did you tell me in the restroom that Jason was your husband?" Mary's face instantly turned red with embarrassm

    Ruby stood still, looking at the woman who had just entered.She didn't need to think twice to know why she was here.The woman had probably followed her.After what Jason did outside, it was only natural that she would come looking for her.But Ruby didn't want to hear whatever she had to say. She simply wanted to leave.Just as she took a step forward, the woman calmly moved and blocked her way."Ruby?" the woman asked softly with a gentle smile, as though she wanted to confirm her name.Ruby's expression remained calm. The woman already knew her name, so there was no need to pretend."Yes," Ruby answered calmly. Then she asked, "And you are?"The woman smiled even more gently. "I'm Mary."Ruby raised an eyebrow.That was all?Shouldn't she have said she was Jason's wife?"You know, I didn't expect us to meet like this," Mary said softly. "After all these months."Ruby looked at her. "What do you want to say?"Mary's smile slowly faded. "I thought we should have a conversation."She

    It was the weekend...Jason stood outside Ruby's apartment as early as the first light of morning. The flowers in his hand were shaking slightly. His expression looked worse than it had the night before when he had come to see her again but was chased away.She had even blocked his number.He had barely slept. All night, he kept replaying her words in his mind."Let's end this.""I don't want to continue this relationship anymore."He still couldn't understand.Ruby had loved him. He wanted to believe that she did.She had accepted him despite his quiet personality. She had never complained that he wasn't romantic enough or confident enough.So why?Why did she suddenly break up with him?Jason knocked again."Ruby." His voice was softer this time. "Please open the door. Whatever the problem is, let's talk it out."There was no answer.He lowered his head and looked at the closed door in front of him. She had even changed the password."I love you so much. Please give me another chanc

    The next morning… Kelsey slowly opened her eyes. A sharp pain shot through her head, making her shut them again immediately. Her brows tightened as she let out a soft groan. Everything felt heavy… her body, her thoughts… even her breathing. She was still lost when the door suddenly opened.

    Kelsey stepped out of her room after changing into the dress. The soft fabric brushed gently against her skin as she carefully held the side of the gown, afraid she might accidentally step on it. For a moment, she stood quietly outside her door. It had been a very long time since she dressed up

    Kelsey fell hard to the floor, her palm scraping painfully against the marble tiles.Her cheek burned badly from the two slaps Doris had given her, and before she could even recover, another harsh voice rang through the living room.“How dare you come back here after what you did to Kendrick?!”Kel
