Divorced and Pregnant My New Life with a Billionaire Drives My Ex Crazy novel Chapter 824

Before they could even fully process their joy, Tatum demanded a separate courtyard to live independently. Did this mean they were moving in together? Terrified he might do something reckless, Mike and Nicole hurriedly stopped him. They urged him to respect the girl, negotiate the marriage properly with her family, and gain a legitimate title before crossing any boundaries.

Tatum merely replied that he knew what he was doing and told them to get everything ready. Fearing another one of his impulsive disappearing acts, the couple had no choice but to frantically furnish the new courtyard. They put extra effort into the guest room, secretly hoping Madison could sleep there if Tatum lost his mind.

Yet Tatum did not even glance at the guest room. He kicked the master bedroom door open, strode inside, and gently laid Madison on the large bed.

Terror washed over Madison. "Tatum, you cannot force me... A forced relationship will never work. Besides, even if we are going to be real husband and wife, I am completely unprepared for this. Please do not do this." She shrank back with red-rimmed eyes.

Tatum stood up and swiftly stripped off his shirt. He had a tall, commanding physique with perfectly sculpted muscles. Just as Wiona had once described, he possessed broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and an impressive set of abs. Madison found herself inexplicably unable to look away, even swallowing lightly. Realizing her mistake, she met Tatum's teasing gaze and closed her eyes in sheer despair. Her words were rejecting him, but her eyes had completely betrayed her. She would rather die than suffer such humiliation.

However, Tatum did not actually pounce on her. He went into the bathroom to shower, emerging in his pajamas, and lay down on the outer edge of the bed. "Go to sleep." He pulled a trembling Madison from the corner and gently tucked her into his embrace. "Relax. Until you nod your head, I will not touch you. But you must sleep with me every night. If you run away again, I will take it as a deliberate provocation. You should know what the consequences of that would be."
