With You For the Rest of My Life

Chapter 2 Being Trapped

After that accident, Burke went home more often. Although it had become a routine, Rose couldn't help but enjoy his presence more in the household.

It felt as if she had finally submitted to him. And at that thought, she couldn't help but think of the irony of it all.

Before she could go too much into it, Rose regained her composure as she continued to prepare her husband's favorite breakfast.

Besides, she knew for a fact that he had another lover.

Although they were married and she had been a very good wife, she couldn't help but lose it when she could smell the fragrance of another woman's perfume on his suit.

"Do you want to explain yourself?" she remembered herself asking.

Bruce, however, could only shrug in reply. "As long as you're my wife, you won't be replaced."

He didn't answer her question, but it was always like this. Back then, she never really thought that she'd be marrying Burke, the man who she loved for the past twelve years. And now that she finally achieved it, she wanted to be a good wife, whether it was from the heart or not.

And, that she was.

She loved him like a dog would love his master, although she could never really understand why.

He was a cold and calculative man, one who was difficult to love.

However, even then, he was still a good husband – gentle and considerate to all her needs.

When she was sick due to high fever, he came home early to take care of her, even lecturing her as if they were an old couple with only a few years to live.

She remembered how she thought she'd been dreaming. It was then when she opened her eyes and gazed at the armchair to see Burke who was scanning through a business magazine. A yellow light shone from the corner of the room, coating the line of his jaw so delicately.

She was reluctant to make a sound, wanting this moment to never end.

"You awake?" His cold voice was mixed with a trace of exhaustion and hoarseness.

She nodded in reply.
