My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1954

Sierra trotted to catch up with him.

However, with her high heels on and Johan's tall stature and long legs, Sierra just couldn't get near him. It was only a moment before she was left far behind. "Johan, wait for me."

Johan took the lead and got into the car. He drove away without looking back, leaving his newly married wife on the side of the road right outside of the Civil Bureau.

Sierra's smile faded away little by little, eventually leaving a bitter and helpless look on her face as she watched Johan drive away.

She knew clearly that he didn't marry her out of love, so what was she excited for?

She always knew that Johan didn't love her, but she fell in love with him and swore to marry him.

After many years of hard work, she finally became his wife.

A freshly printed wedding certificate was in her hand at that moment. It should have been a joyous occasion, but all she could feel just then was unbridled mockery.

She thought that a piece of paper would bring her and Johan closer together. But at that moment, she had come to a realization that not only did the distance between them still exist, it had pushed them even further apart.

"Johan!" Sierra mumbled his name over and over to herself as a foolish attempt to bestow strength upon herself. "I have persisted for so many years, and there will be plenty more time to do so in the future. No matter how cold-hearted you are, I will find a way to soften that steel of heart of yours."

After comforting herself, Sierra tried to put on a smile again. This was their first day as a married couple and they had a long life ahead of them. She had to pull herself together, and live a good life with Johan. She couldn't be defeated just because he had shot her a cold look.

After thinking it through, Sierra headed for the shopping mall. She bought all sorts of things before returning to Johan's home.

She had never been a good cook. However, because of Johan, who had stomach problems, Sierra had spent two years learning to cook, especially his favorite dishes.

Sierra bustled around in the kitchen for a few hours, grilling steak and blanching vegetables while she waited for Johan to return home to enjoy her piping hot home cooked meal.

Naively, she thought that if he could feel the warmth of a family, he would fall in love with the feeling. Once he gradually got used to her love and care, he would begin to grow dependent on her, slowly accepting her from the bottom of his heart.

Unexpectedly, she waited all the way until 8 in the evening, and Johan was still nowhere to be seen.

She wanted to give him a call, but she was afraid that she would disturb him at work, so she held back.

She waited again, and it stretched until the night grew dark. Johan still did not turn up.

When the short hand on the wall clock finally pointed to eleven, Sierra picked up her cell phone to dial Johan's phone number, but all she heard was a cold machine operator's voice. "The number you have dialed is currently unavailable. Please try again later."

He did not come home.

He turned off his phone.

Sierra refused to give up and tried to contact his assistant instead.

The call was connected quickly this time. "Hello, Miss Yard!"

Such a name gave Sierra's heart a violent pain. In the eyes of the people around Johan, she could only be Miss Yard. It was impossible for her to be Mrs. Silas. But she still acted as if nothing was wrong. She pretended to be all nonchalant and asked, "Archer, did you guys work overtime today?"

"No, Miss Yard."
