Meanwhile, Rodney could no longer reach Freya after attempting to call her many times. Only then did he realize that his number had been blocked.
Damn it. It must be Ryan's doing.
Rodney punched the steering wheel. Although his family claimed that Ryan was interested in men, Rodney did not buy it. Given his slyness, Ryan could b e plotting something to get Freya.
Rodney should not have divorced her. 1
However, it was too late to say anything at that moment.
Devastation haunted him, yet he could not find a way t o vent his feelings.
At 12:00 a.m., Rodney went home drunk.
The minute he stepped into the house, he saw Sarah i n a wheelchair looking at him with a teary face. "Why didn’t you answer my calls? I called you over ten times during the night. Did you avoid my calls on purpose?"
"No. I drank quite a lot when I was out socializing and napped in the car for a while, so I didn't hear my phone ring."
Rodney rubbed his aching temples. He was too exhausted to coax her.
"Don't you know to get the driver to send you back since you drank so much? Rodney, ever since we got married, you've been coming home later each day and avoiding me. You must look down on me for not being able to walk and get pregnant, right? You regret it, right?"
Sarah fixed her eyes on Rodney, whose shirt buttons were unbuttoned. He staggered about with a red face, and his dispirited look instantly triggered her.
She could have controlled herself if this had happened in the past. However, she had not been able to get him to sleep with her, and during the day, she was alone in the cold, luxurious villa. Even if she wanted to go out, her disability made it inconvenient t o do so. Sometimes, she also had to endure the strange looks people gave her when the nanny was wheeling her on the street.
Considering that Sarah used to be held in high esteem, when had she ever experienced that feeling?
