Part 1The Villain Husband's Secret Obsession

I was the daughter of the recently bankrupt Ji family.

To save the company, my father married me off to the newly minted tech tycoon, Luke Yan.

No one knew that Luke was the ex-boyfriend I had ruthlessly dumped.

On our wedding night, he looked at me coldly: "Don't think I still have feelings for you. Marrying you is just a temporary measure. Once the acquisition is over, we're divorcing."

Suddenly, a row of bullet comments floated across my vision.

[The villain's body is soft, only his mouth is hard.]

[Supporting Actress, don't believe him! I testify he drools over your photo every night.]

[Villain on the outside: Don't think I like you. Villain on the inside: Boohoo, why isn't wifey comforting me yet?]

[Supporting Actress, you're confused! Trust me, call him 'Hubby' once, and he'll instantly turn into a love-sick puppy, licking your boots clean.]

Watching Luke prepare to leave, I tentatively called out: "Hubby?"

The man's figure froze instantly. His deep eyes locked onto me, looking like he wanted to devour me whole the very next second.

"What did you just call me?"

Luke's voice was hoarse. Though still cold, the "keep away" aura from moments ago had vanished.

Knowing the bullet comments' advice worked, I immediately softened my tone: "Can you not leave? It's thundering outside, I'm scared."

I wasn't lying. Since my grandma passed away, I've been terrified of thunder. Luke knew this.

He stared at me for a long time. Just when I thought he would leave, Luke took pajamas from the closet and went into the bathroom.

Didn't he shower already? Since when did Luke become such a germaphobe?

The bullet comments went wild:

[Silly baby, that's not being a germaphobe, that's hehehe...]

[Supporting Actress called him 'Hubby' and the villain is probably burning up. If he doesn't hit the bathroom now, he's gonna embarrass himself.]

[Can't blame him. The villain hasn't touched a woman in years, relying on the clothes and photos the Supporting Actress left behind. It's understandable he couldn't hold back.]

[Ah, even in there, the villain is whispering the Supporting Actress's name. These two are pure love!]

[Upstairs, do you have a misunderstanding of 'pure love'?]

I was stunned reading the comments. Is this a comment section or a red-light district?

Why are the black texts getting yellower and yellower?

My face flushed red. I resisted the urge to eavesdrop at the bathroom door, changed into my pajamas, and lay on the bed.

An hour later, Luke came out of the bathroom.

He wore only pajama pants, shirtless.

I had to admit, I've never seen a man with a better body than Luke.

It was the ceiling of lean muscle, oozing sexual tension.

Crystal droplets slid down his firm pecs and abs, slowly disappearing into his sexy V-line.

I couldn't help but swallow.
