Buying My Forever Wife novel Chapter 237

Ivy spent the entire day focused on Stella.

The little girl was slowly dropping her defenses, once again eager to play and interact with her.

By dinnertime, Alaric still hadn't returned, and Ivy's worry began to spike.

She wanted to call him, but feared pushing the issue might further damage his delicate male ego.

Ultimately, she held off, deciding to devote all her attention back to Stella.

Later that evening.

Alaric and Leo Archer sat in a parked luxury sedan just a few blocks away from The Starlight Estate. The silence inside the cabin was suffocating.

Leo didn't dare breathe a word.

His boss looked absolutely murderous.

Was it because they still hadn't managed to track down Dr. Sinclair?

Elena had vanished off the grid entirely, leaving zero trace for his top-tier security team to follow.

So, Leo kept his mouth firmly shut.

Alaric leaned heavily against the leather backseat.

The specialist's words echoed relentlessly in his skull.

"Mr. Foster, the condition is quite severe. The dysfunction is physiological, but there is also a massive psychological roadblock at play."

"To recover, you must work past the trauma of that night. Perhaps try initiating physical contact with other partners to break the mental block."

Alaric concluded the specialist was an absolute quack.

If he couldn't even perform, what was the point of initiating anything with anyone?

Besides, he was a married man. He had absolutely zero desire to touch any woman other than his wife.

He wanted to act like it didn't bother him, but he had no idea how to face Ivy now.

He opened his eyes and leveled a dark look at Leo.

"If I ask Ivy for a divorce right now, do you think she'd be upset?"

To salvage whatever was left of his dignity, pushing Ivy away with a divorce seemed like the only viable option.

If he couldn't satisfy his own wife's needs, the humiliation would be unbearable.

"Excuse me?"

Leo was completely taken aback.

"Boss, why drop a divorce bomb out of nowhere? Weren't things finally smoothing out between you two?"
