Chapter 248
He suddenly stopped speaking and stared at me impatiently, as if he couldn't stand my incompetence. I clenched the key and stammered, "Yes, I'm sorry." I forgot to remove the key after entering; it was a first. No, in the future, I must be more careful. Luckily, it was him. If a stranger had entered… Just thinking about it sends chills down my spine.
The anger in my heart vanished, and I cautiously looked at Reynaldo, saying, "Thank you, tonight." He snorted coldly, still clearly angry.
I hurriedly poured him a glass of water and said sincerely, "I was impulsive and punched you. If you're still angry, you can punch me back." "Punch you back?" Reynaldo absentmindedly took the water. He took a sip and sneered, "With your physique, I doubt you could withstand a punch."
I pursed my lips, folded my hands, and waited respectfully for his scolding.
This time, my negligence had indeed invited unimaginable disaster, averted only by him. Reynaldo stared, annoyed. He tugged at his tie and said, "You didn't know any better, couldn't distinguish right from wrong, blind in your eyes and heart, carefree…" I pursed my lips, hung my head, and didn't dare to respond. The air crackled with his anger. I didn't know why he was so angry—was it because I scolded and hit him?
He fumed on the sofa for a while, then got up, unbuttoned his shirt, and went into the bathroom. Startled, I instinctively asked, "What are you doing?" "Shower!" he replied curtly. My heart was a tempest.
I hurriedly followed him, leaning against the bathroom door and asking, "Are you… are you sleeping here tonight?" Reynaldo looked around the bathroom, then at me with a gloomy expression. "What? Is that not allowed?" "There… there was nothing that couldn't be done."
He had just saved me, and now he's angry again. I dared not retort. This man was domineering and forceful; my rebuttal would likely be pointless. I thought anxiously.

His joking voice, accompanied by the sound of water, suddenly came: "What? You want to watch me bathe?" I was taken aback. He'd already removed his shirt, revealing a muscular chest and slender waist. I’d never seen him exercise. During our three-year marriage, I constantly oppressed him, never letting him eat properly. I don't know how his body grew so well; his chest and waist are remarkably strong.
The image of him lying unconscious on the bed flashed in my mind. My face burned intensely. I quickly glanced away, muttering, "Who…who wants to watch you shower, shameless." I turned to run.
But unexpectedly, he grabbed my arm, pressing me firmly against the bathroom wall. The shower sprayed water all over me, soaking my pajamas. I frowned. "Reynaldo, what are you doing? Weren't you showering?"
Reynaldo stared with a dim gaze. "Have you been secretly taking birth control pills again these past few days?" I shook my head quickly. "No, no, don't suspect me." "What medicine did you get at the hospital that day?" he asked sharply.

I felt a sudden panic. I didn't expect him to remember my hospital visit; I thought he'd forgotten long ago. I steadied myself. "Those were calcium supplements. I've lost a lot of weight recently. The doctor said I'm malnourished and need supplements." "Really?" "Um." I nodded earnestly, looking at him sincerely.
He stared at me for a while. "You better not deceive me. Anyway, I'll work harder this month to make you pregnant as soon as possible."
