Billy seemed so drunk that he could hardly stand still and squinted his eyes.
"Then tell me what you did wrong."
"I shouldn't have kissed the back of Natalie's hand. Darling, I know you love me, and I know you're gonna b e jealous. But you see, nothing happened between us i n the end. Baby, aren't you a little too hard on me?"
Sherman frowned slightly. What he meant was that it was her fault, because she was jealous, because she didn't want any other woman to have an affair with her husband.
"Well, I don't think you have realized your mistake yet. Don't come to me until you really realize your mistake. " After saying that, Sherman turned around, went to the bedroom and closed the door.
Billy wasn't drunk at all. He was just pretending to gain her sympathy.
At this moment, he opened his squinting eyes, and he rubbed his short black hair impatiently, feeling very upset.
She gave him the silent treatment and wouldn't admit she was wrong. Well, he apologized to her first, even if he didn't think he was wrong.
But he had already confessed his mistake, so why couldn't she accept it? How could quarrels between husband and wife go on and on like this?
He was such a haughty man. When had he ever been s o humble? In Santabaca, he was so superior and mighty that he almost never begged others so meekly.
However, his wife Sherman was the first and only one to make him plead so humbly. He had already kept a low profile. Why wouldn't she forgive him and let it go?
But then again, he didn't even touch Natalie in the end. He did as she asked. Did she have to be so angry and make such a big deal out of it?
