You were drunk, and you forced yourself on me, and now you don\u2019t want to take responsibility?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Her hand traced slow circles along the edge of the towel at his waist.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast night was an accident,\u201d Rowan said as he grabbed her wrist. He lifted her hands above her head and pinned her against the door. \u201cWe can\u2019t keep making this mistake.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen let tonight make it real,\u201d she whispered, sinking her teeth into his neck and leaving a clear bite mark.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cFor all these years, even when I wasn\u2019t by your side, I was always thinking about you,\u201d she continued softly. \u201cI\u2019ve saved my most beautiful night for you. Don\u2019t you want me at all?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The scent of Imogen\u2019s perfume was intoxicating, impossible for any man to ignore. With her daring outfit and provocative demeanor, Rowan, still young and full of desire, couldn\u2019t remain unmoved.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She was far too forward, and her kisses were skilled. Unable to resist any longer, he scooped her up in his arms, and they tumbled onto the bed together.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Rowan had been married to Natalie for seven years, yet they had only slept together once.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>That encounter had been arranged by Matilda, and because of it, he had always resented Natalie, believing she had conspired with his grandmother to trap him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The woman he truly loved had always been Imogen. He could never forget her.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Facing Natalie\u2019s stiff and unresponsive body, he had never been able to feel desire. That night, however, Rowan finally knew what paradise truly felt like.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Both his body and heart were filled with pleasure and excitement, because the woman beneath him was the one he loved.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Imogen was equally thrilled. She clung to him again and again until both of them were completely exhausted, before finally letting him go to the bathroom to shower.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>It was already past midnight, yet Imogen wasn\u2019t sleepy.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>While Rowan was in the bathroom, she sent Natalie a photo.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In the photo, Rowan was bare-chested, holding her as they kissed.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Natalie wasn\u2019t asleep either, and it wasn\u2019t because she was worried about her husband cheating with another woman. She was sitting at her computer, refining a design sketch.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Even though she had passed the interview, the company wasn\u2019t completely satisfied. She wanted to spend extra time perfecting the design sketch so she could show the final version to the manager when she officially started work.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She picked up her phone and opened the message. The photo made her feel nothing but disgust.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Natalie typed, \u201cGive me something real. Men who aren\u2019t a little bad rarely attract women, and a little fling on the side isn\u2019t such a big deal.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Imogen\u2019s response came quickly. \u201cWhat else do you want? Something real?\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Chapter 20\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>2\/2\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>She felt even more certain that Natalie was pathetic. Her man was already with her, yet Natalie could still remain indifferent.<\/p>\n<h2>Divorced, Upgraded, and Married Rich<\/h2>\n<h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 20\u00a0 1\/2\u00a0 Chapter 20\u00a0 Rowan withdrew his gaze and turned to leave.\u00a0 Imogen quickly stood up and rushed to [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-261","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-divorced-upgraded-and-married-rich"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=261"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":287,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/261\/revisions\/287"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=261"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=261"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=261"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
