My Aloof Husband, Mr. Drexler, Dotes Me Excessively-Chapter 233: Is He... Angry?

Summer Shawcross was stunned for a few seconds, her expression changing slightly as she finally remembered something and raised her hand to press the switch by the bed.

With a faint sound, the light in the bedroom went out instantly.

The bedroom door was tightly closed, with no light coming in from outside.

At this moment, everything before her eyes was pitch black, and she couldn’t see a thing.

Because she couldn’t see, he no longer needed to suppress himself in front of her, fearing she’d notice any cracks.

In the darkness, she fumbled her way to the edge of the bed, kicked off her shoes, climbed onto the bed, moved behind him, and then half knelt, suddenly extending her hands to his shoulders, gently pressing them, trying to give him some comfort.

Noah Drexler’s body tensed, and suddenly her soft voice came from behind.

"Noah Drexler, let me tell you a story too."

"..." He pressed his lips tightly together, not making a sound, his breathing somewhat heavy, striving to suppress the turmoil within him, forcing himself to calm down.

"Once, there was a somewhat foolish woman who had made many mistakes and hurt many people who were good to her, especially... the one man who was best to her." Summer’s voice rang out, unsure why but suddenly wanting to tell him this story.

"But later, after going through some things, she finally understood that those who appeared gentle and friendly to her were actually deceivers, and the man she had always despised was in fact the best person to her in this world."

As her voice fell, the man’s body stiffened, and in the darkness, the expression on his handsome face suddenly became complex.

Then the voice behind him continued.

"She finally decided she wanted to make amends for everything, even though the man was wary of her at every turn. She was angry, yet she had already decided that no matter what, as long as the man did not give up on her, she would not leave him."

Saying this, Summer suddenly recalled Sean Morgan’s earlier plea to her not to leave Noah Drexler.

The bedroom was very quiet, very quiet... Noah Drexler’s body was rigid, not uttering a sound.

At this moment, she could only hear her own heartbeat and Noah Drexler’s heavy breathing.

She thought... he should be able to understand her words, but he gave no response...

The words she had just said were actually a veiled confession of how, before marriage, she had secretly aided Dustin Hughes in certain matters.

She knew he was a person who could not tolerate betrayal, and thinking of that day in the office when he angrily grabbed her and questioned her, her heart could not help but tighten.

Perhaps, he still couldn’t forgive her betrayal, unwilling to truly trust her.

Even though she had laid all her cards on the table in front of him this time.

Previously, she had been angry when he questioned her and ignored her sincerity, but now, having learned from the butler and Sean Morgan about his past experiences, she could understand him.

If he couldn’t even trust his own father, how could he trust someone who had once played tricks beside him...

Thinking this, she felt a wave of helplessness, pursed her lips, and then asked him in a deliberately light-hearted manner.

"So, isn’t it more vivid than the story you just told..."

Before she could finish her sentence, there was a stir in the darkness, and the man suddenly turned over, lying down beside her, but he still didn’t answer her question.
