30 Days Till I Divorce My Husband novel Chapter 456

Taylor's expression shifted dramatically, but Leonora didn't notice until she tied her hair back and caught a glimpse of his changed demeanor.

As she faced him, before she could say anything, Taylor cut in coldly, "Leonora, what am I to you?"

His question, though clear, left Leonora puzzled. He hated that their interactions felt like a duty, yet to her, that’s exactly what their relationship was. Besides, all they ever did together was that one thing.

At that moment, Leonora realized she had been led astray by Taylor. Once, she couldn't even watch a kiss scene on TV without switching channels. Now, undressing had become second nature to her. Good habits are hard to form, but bad ones catch on all too easily. On this, Leonora could write a book, being a prime example herself.

After a long, silent stare at Taylor, seeing his continued displeasure, Leonora innocently asked, "Isn't this what our relationship is about? Didn't you pursue me just for... sleeping together?"

Her candidness left Taylor unable to lash out. She was right; their encounters were purely physical. After a moment's silence, Taylor instructed, "Put your clothes back on."

Complying, Leonora bent to pick up her clothes from the floor, hoping to quickly resolve whatever this was and head home. Silently dressing, she watched as Taylor approached the bar, poured half a glass of red wine, and offered it to her.

Leonora shook her head, "I don't drink." She had always disliked alcohol, especially after one regretful night of overindulgence with Taylor, vowing never to repeat the mistake.

"Relax a bit," Taylor insisted, not taking the glass back. With a reluctant acceptance, Leonora took the wine. Taylor's lips curled into a smirk as he grabbed a bottle of water for himself.

His preference for water over wine in this moment irked Leonora, almost pushing her to the edge of cursing him out. Despite her irritation, she downed the wine in one go, immediately breaking into a coughing fit.
