Standing at the bedroom door, Lydia suddenly became a little timid.
She raised her hands a few times but didn't have the courage to open the door.
This kind of feeling reminded her of the days when they were dating in their youth.
However, whenever she thought about those days, she felt a little annoyed. Since they met each other, he had always humoured and tolerated her. Even if she had gone too far sometimes, he would apologize to her and coax her every time! Although he was cold to others, he was obedient to her.
She just blamed him that day. If he got angry just because of this... she really looked down on him!
Although she thought so, the nervousness in her heart didn't fade away.
However, she had to enter the room. Both James and Elizabeth lived in the house. If she had a quarrel with John, how embarrassing would it be if Elizabeth knew it? Moreover, she would give Elizabeth a surprise later, so they should gather together happily.
Alas! She decided to listen to Jimmy. Since John had given in to her for so many years, this time, she would apologize to him first!
Thinking like this, she calmed down a little. After taking two deep breaths, she finally pushed open the door and walked in.
"John?" She popped her head around the door and looked around, but she didn't see anyone.
Feeling puzzled, she pushed the door open completely and walked in.
"John? Are you here?"
No one answered her.
"Is he in the study?"
She muttered. Just as she was about to turn around and walk towards the study, she saw John walking to the locker room. When he saw her, he did not smile as usual, nor did he go forward and hold her hand. Instead, he just stood there and looked at her with gentle eyes.
"You're here?" She walked over quickly, "I just called you, but why didn't you answer me? I thought you were in the study."
Hearing this, John did not say a word, but just pursed his lips lightly.
Originally, Lydia had been a little relieved because she had seen him, but she became jittery again.
She took two steps forward, grabbed his hand, and looked at him pitifully, "Are you... really mad?"
He still did not speak and pursed his lips again.
"Alas, I didn't mean it. I used to say the same words in the past, and you know that I am just straightforward. If you are angry, just scold me! You are... so strange now." This kind of feeling was weird. They had been in love for more than twenty years and had never quarreled. Why did he suddenly ignore her? She really couldn't accept it!
Looking at Lydia, John was amused in the heart. He opened his mouth slightly and whispered, "No."
Lydia, who was high-strung, suddenly heard it and was stunned, "What did you say?"
John sighed lightly, held her hand, and said in a soft tone, "I said that I'm not angry." If he got mad just because of what she said, he would have been angered to death a long time ago.
"Really?" Lydia looked up at him and couldn't believe it, "Then why did you say nothing just now and leave with a straight face?" She was so hesitant and regretful.
John bent over slightly, "Didn't you ask me to keep my mouth shut?"
