My Cold Husband Closer Than Before
Aaron lingered near the door for a moment before stepping back inside, his gaze hesitant but resolute. Lily turned to face him, her brows furrowing slightly. “I thought you were leaving,” she said, her voice softer now. “I was.” He walked back toward her, his steps deliberate. “But I realized something.” Lily’s heart thudded against her ribs as he closed the distance between them slowly. She tried to appear composed, but his presence made it nearly impossible. Aaron stopped a few feet away, his expression a mix of determination and vulnerability. "I’ve spent so much of my life walking away-from people, from emotions, from anything that felt... complicated. But I don’t want to do that with you.” Lily blinked, stunned by the weight of his words. “Aaron...” “I’m not expecting you to feel the same way or even to understand,” he continued, his voice steady. “But I need you to know that you’re the first person who’s made me want to stay.” Her chest tightened as his c

The day wore on with an unsettling quietness. Lily had hoped for a moment of peace, but the intensity of her recent conversation with Aaron loomed over her like a storm cloud. She spent the morning aimlessly flipping through her to-do list, pretending to work but unable to focus on anything for more than a few minutes. She started to have doubts if she was making the right decision by completely trusting someone so soon after...she shook her head. By the time the clock struck noon, Clara barged into her room. “Okay, enough of this brooding,” Clara said, hands on her hips. “Get dressed. We’re going out.” “I’m fine, Clara. Really.” Lily opposed. “No, you’re not,” Clara countered. “You’re overthinking everything again, aren’t you?” When Lily didn’t respond, Clara sighed and grabbed her hand. “Come on. You need a change of scenery before you lose your mind. Besides, I need coffee, and you’re coming with me.” "Clara, I-" "It's been days since we've spent quality time tog

Lily was curled up on the couch at the penthouse, with the same book in her lap. Her mind wandered restlessly, replaying Aaron’s intense behavior at the café and the protectiveness in his eyes. Clara had wisely given her space after their conversation, though Lily suspected she was lurking somewhere nearby, ready to jump in with more pointed observations. Lily sighed, snapping the book shut and leaning back against the cushions. Damian’s voice broke the silence. “Ms. Lily, Mr. Knight wants you, he's at the balcony.” Lily looked up. “Did he say why?” “He didn’t,” Damian replied, his tone as formal as ever. “But he did insist it was important.” Lily hesitated, her heart skipping a beat. “Alright,” she murmured, setting the book aside. Aaron was already on the balcony when she stepped outside, his tall frame silhouetted against the city skyline. The evening breeze ruffled his hair slightly, softening the usual sharpness of his appearance. He turned at the sound of her footste

Lily quickly followed Zared before he disappeared from her sight.She went behind him and followed him upstairs to where his room was."Come with me" Zared said with a straight face and went along the hallway of the first floor. Lily followed him quietly until he stopped at the end of the hallway. "This will be your room. I don't like anyone invading my privacy so you'll stay here and I'll be in my room" He completed his sentence with a cold voice and a straight face and made his way to his room without turning back to even take a glance at Lily or wait for her to reply.It was as if he was talking to himself. “Wait” Lily said, making Zared sigh and turn around with his eyebrows raised in question.“I know we've both been forced into this, but let's just accept it? After all, there's nothing else we can do“ Zared scoffed a little, turned around and brought his steps forward towards Lily. “That's probably what you wanted all along. Listen to me, I'm never going to accept you neither t

Lily woke up to the sound of the ringing alarm, her hands stretched and found her phone to dismiss it. She lied on the bed, staring at nothing, contemplating that today would just be another day of trying to gain Zared's attention and trust. It was Lily’s ultimate goal since she got married to Zared nearly 6 months ago. You can also say it was her daily routine now. She had been misunderstood and mistreated for far too long and she deserved to be trusted and loved, is what she thought. She was madly in love with Zared, and every time her gaze met his ocean blue eyes, she would fall in love with him all over again, but she could not do anything to prove that it was genuine. Tearing the blanket off her body, she got up and made her way towards the shower.Over the course of the six months, Zared never gave Lily a single tender glance, instead, he would yell at her and beg her to leave him alone. It seemed to him that Lily was only seeking his attention in order to get his credit cards s

Lily was determined not to give up because she was concerned that if he went to bed empty-stomach, he might become ill. She also noticed that he's getting skinnier which made her more worried and she unknowingly blamed herself for it. She went towards him and held his arm before he reached the stairs trying to stop him. "Zared, you-""WHY CAN'T YOU JUST LET ME LIVE?!, EVERY TIME I WAKE UP, I NEED TO SEE YOUR DISGUSTING FACE, EVERY TIME I COME FROM MY OFFICE EXPECTING TO TAKE SOME REST, YOU START IRRITATING ME. JUST STOP IT.YOU. ARE. NOT.MY.WIFE. STOP ACTING LIKE MY F*CKING WIFE"He shouted and yanked her hand. She was frightened by his action ,tears started forming in her eyes as she processed what he just said. It was never unknown to Lily but it was just hard for her to hear it from him in this clear words, to accept it, to accept that this was the reality. "I'm-I'm sorry" Lily said with a trembling voice, trying not to break down. "Your sorry won't do a damn thing, I would appr

Zared went downstairs and settled on the couch in the living room continuing his work. He saw Lily throwing the pieces of the mug in the dustbin while sobbing and trembling....'Urgh why does she have to be so annoying all the time, Man I can't stand this lady' Zared thought to himself. Lily spent the night sobbing in her room, her eyes were swollen from all the crying and her head in extreme pain but her tears won't stop. The thoughts in her mind,the questions,the overthinking was slowly killing her and she was not able to help it. She wanted to escape this world, escape to somewhere,where only happiness existed. She didn't like the people here, the people this world consisted of were cruel, selfish, heartless, ungrateful and what not, they only saw kind people like a use and throw product, they would take advantage of them and then throw them to the dogs. She hated this world, the people, the worries they gave her, the anguish they put her in... She was tired of this world. She clos

He nodded, his gaze fixed on the view outside the window. “And then there was Zared.” Lily tensed at the mention of Zared’s name, her fingers curling into fists at her sides. She stayed quiet, letting Aaron continue. “He wasn’t even family,” Aaron said, his tone bitter. “Just the son of my father’s closest friend as you already know. But they treated him like he was their own flesh and blood. Better than that, actually. Zared was everything they wanted me to be: charming, obedient, perfect. And they didn’t bother hiding it.” Lily’s chest tightened at the pain in his voice. "They seem so different, I never imagined they could do all this."Aaron looked at Lily. "Everyone had their masks, Lily. You can never imagine how worse the sweetest people could get." Lily's eyes held pity as well as disappointment upon hearing the world's reality. "Every time I messed up, every time I didn’t meet their impossibly high standards, they’d bring up Zared. ‘Why can’t you be more like him
My Cold Husband Facing The Past
Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock at her door. “Lily,” Aaron’s voice called from the other side. She froze, her heart pounding. “Can I come in?” he asked. Lily hesitated for a moment before opening the door. Aaron stood there, his expression unreadable. “We need to talk,” he said, his tone firm but not unkind. She nodded, stepping aside to let him in. Aaron stepped inside as Lily shut the door quietly, her heart pounding. She turned to face him, her fingers fidgeting with her shirt. He stood in the center of the room, hands shoved into pockets. There was a tension in his shoulders, but his eyes softened. “You’ve been very quiet,” he began. Lily folded her arms, leaning slightly against the door. “So have you.” He nodded, acknowledging her point. “I know. I’m... trying to figure out how to do this right.” “Do what right?” she asked. Aaron exhaled sharply. “Be honest with you. Let you in.” The vulnerability in his words made her stomach twist. She
My Cold Husband Thoughts Interrupted
Lily leaned against the armrest of the couch, her legs curled beneath her as she mindlessly scrolled through her phone. The television played softly in the background, its colors casting a faint glow across the room. It had been a long day of tension and subtle shifts, the evening was quiet and Lily had came back from college tired.She hadn’t seen Aaron since yesterday, and part of her was grateful for the reprieve. But another part of her-a part she didn’t want to acknowledge-missed his presence.Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of footsteps approaching. She glanced up to find Aaron standing in the doorway, his tie loosened and the sleeves of his shirt rolled up to his elbows. His hair was slightly disheveled, something that stirred something inside Lily's stomach.“Relaxing?” he asked, his voice breaking the silence.Lily nodded, setting her phone aside. “Trying to. What about you? No big deals to close tonight?”Aaron smirked faintly as he stepped into the room. “Not ton
My Cold Husband Weight Of Unspoken Words
Lily shifted on her feet, avoiding his eyes. “Why wouldn’t I?”A small, humorless smile tugged at his lips. “Because you’ve been avoiding me all day.”“Whatever, I haven't,” she said quickly, but the defensive edge in her voice gave her away.Aaron pushed off the desk, taking a slow step toward her. “You have, Lily.”Her breath hitched, and she took a step back, only to realize she was already at the door. Trapped. “I just... I needed space, okay?”“From me?” he asked, his voice low, almost a whisper.Her gaze flickered to his, and the raw vulnerability in his eyes made her chest tighten. “I don’t know,” she admitted quietly.Aaron closed the remaining distance between them, his hand coming up to rest lightly against the doorframe beside her. “Lily, if I’ve done something to make you uncomfortable-”“You didn’t,” she cut him off, her words tumbling out too quickly. She hesitated, her eyes dropping to the floor. “It’s not you. It’s me. I just... don’t know how to deal with any of this.
My Cold Husband Complex Conversations
She didn’t have an answer for that, and he took another step closer, the space between them growing smaller and smaller.Before the tension could escalate further, Damian appeared in the doorway. “Mr. Knight, the car is ready.”Aaron sighed, glancing at Lily one last time before nodding at Damian. Lily watched as he straightened his jacket and adjusted his cuffs. “Is this a deja vu?” she asked, surprising even herself with the question.“I found out my meeting would be late so I could use some time here.” he said casually."What? 15 minutes?" Lily made an 'are you serious' face.Aaron paused, his hand on the doorframe. He turned to her, his gaze softening. “Wanted to spend more time.”And with that, he was gone. It was so childish of him, Lily thought.Lily spent most of the day trying to focus on her classes and assignments, but her thoughts kept drifting back to Aaron. His words, his touch, his presence-they were like a storm she couldn’t escape, no matter how hard she tried.Back
My Cold Husband Tense Encounters
They sat in silence for a few moments, the tension between them thick enough to cut with a knife. Lily reached for a piece of toast, her movement causing her shorts to ride up slightly. She noticed Aaron’s gaze shift again-brief, almost imperceptible, but it was there.“You’re awfully quiet this morning, why did you request my presence?” Lily said, her voice light as she buttered her toast.Aaron’s lips twitched into a faint smile, though his eyes remained guarded. “Just for breakfast.""And why so quiet?" "Just thinking." he replied.“About?” she prompted, tilting her head.He set his coffee mug down, leaning forward slightly. “About how you seem very comfortable this morning.”Lily raised an eyebrow, pretending not to catch his meaning. “I slept well. Is that a problem?”“Not at all,” Aaron said smoothly, though his voice had dropped a notch. He studied her for a moment longer before leaning back in his chair again, the picture of composure-except for the way his fingers tapped res
