Noah didn’t respond but just nodded.

The driver started the engine and drove home.

The chauffeur had just parked the car when he saw the President impatiently opening the car door and getting out.

Noah, who opened the door and entered the living room, first looked for Mia but did not find her, then went to the guest room on the second floor.

Noah, who had thought that he would not be able to unlock the door, did not expect that the door would open today with a light twist.

The room was silent, so Noah lightened his footsteps and slowly walked into the room.

When he arrived at the bed, he saw Mia quietly sleeping. Half of her pale face was revealed under the blanket.

Noah did not dare to wake Mia up, but he wanted to see how her wound was. Hence, he tiptoed and gently lifted the blanket. He first saw the thick gauze wrapped around his arm. A little blood seeped out. Noah’s heart ached. He did not know how much pain Mia felt. Noah could not help but gently touch Mia’s wound.

The wound was still hurting. Mia struggled slightly.

The button on her collar popped open, revealing the Noah family tattoo on Mia’s collarbone. It was a delicate moon. This was a match for the sun on his body. Noah’s possessiveness rose instantly, and he couldn’t resist the urge to lean in and kiss her. This was his woman, the woman who’d been marked by Noah’s family, Noah thought.

However, Noah restrained himself in the end. He was afraid that he would wake Mia up, so he only kissed Mia’s collarbone lightly before covering Mia with the blanket again. He caressed Mia’s forehead before getting up to leave.

Mia was injured this time and stayed at home for a few days. During this time, she was worried about her grandfather’s condition and called her grandmother several times. Both parties hid their situation from each other. Mia was afraid that Noah’s grandfather would be worried, so she never said that she was injured. Similarly, Noah’s grandmother and Noah were afraid that Mia would be worried, so they didn’t let Mia know about Noah’s grandfather’s emergency rescue.

Hence, Mia stayed at home for a few days and avoided Noah.

The words she’d heard the other day when she’d gone to the hospital, and the fact that Noah hadn’t shown up all night, made Mia realize once again where she was in Noah’s heart. It also strengthened her resolve to get a divorce.

Hence, for the next few days at home, Noah went back to his room after work. Mia would come out after Noah went to work.

Noah was really helpless about this situation. He wanted to express concern about Mia, but he could not even enter the room. He also did not dare to tell his grandfather, so he could only seek help from his good friend.

The friend Noah had found this time was a little more reliable. He gave Noah a lot of advice and finally got Noah to choose a gift for Mia. After so long in their marriage, it did seem like Noah had never given Mia anything before. So Noah took his friend’s advice and bought a gift for Mia.

Hence, Noah specially postponed the afternoon meeting and went home early after choosing a gift. When he pushed open the door, he saw Mia clumsily pouring water with one hand.

Mia turned at the sound of the door opening, only to find Noah back. She didn’t expect Noah to be back so early today. Mia froze for a moment, then picked up the glass of water with one hand and prepared to head upstairs.

When she passed by Noah, she was pulled back by Noah. Mia did not understand and looked up at Noah.

She saw Noah take something out and pass it to her.

It was a beautifully wrapped box. Mia, not wanting to take it, hesitated.

After waiting for a long time, Mia did not reach out to take it. Noah opened the box and passed it to Mia.

It was a beautifully packaged watch. Mia had seen it before when she was shopping in the mall. At that time, she liked it very much and even tried it on. However, when she saw the string of zeros behind the price tag, she couldn’t count how many there were before she was dissuaded.

Mia didn’t understand why Noah was giving her such an expensive watch now, so she asked blankly, “This is… divorce compensation?”

Hearing Mia’s words made Noah angry, so he pulled a long face. “What divorce? No.”

Mia was stunned. “Didn’t we already agree? Plus you don’t like me.”

“Agreed my ass.” Noah’s expression darkened, and he decided to keep listening to his friend.

His friend said that when a couple quarreled, there was no overnight grudge. When they quarreled, they would reconcile soon. If there was no other choice, he could just find a romantic place to book a room.

Noah thought about it carefully later on. It was a little crude, but the logic was this. In the past, after Mia and him had sex, she would be obedient and sweet. She would lie in his arms and cling to him.

Besides, the two of them had not done it for a long time, and he had been abstinent for a long time. Previously, when he was overseas, he had a perfect plan, but in the end, he did not get to. Now, he could try it out..
