- 3.
I hung up the phone and calmly turned off the
computer.
“Nothing, I was just talking to my professor
about divorce stuff.”
く
Frank’s face changed. He practically jumped
in front of me.
“Divorce? You want to divorce me?”
I took a step back, replying evasively.
“No, it was a case. My professor wanted my
opinion.”
Only then did the man breathe a sigh of relief,
handing me the paper bag in his hand.
“This is for you.”
The pattern on the bag was from my favorite
bakery.
Before we got married, Frank would run to
this store and buy me cake every time he
L
This shop was also very popular and you had
to queue for two hours every time you went
to buy it.
In order to coax me, no matter what, if I said I
wanted to eat it, he would personally run to
queue up.
Sometimes I felt sorry for him and asked him
to find someone to do it for him.
But Frank said,
“Ashley, it’s okay, I’m willing to do anything
for you.”
Thinking of this, my heart warmed, I couldn’t
help but raise my eyebrows, took the paper
bag and opened it.
く
“I didn’t think you would remember… what is
this?”
I looked at him in shock, and an ominous
feeling rose in my heart.
Inside the paper bag wasn’t the cake I was
expecting, but two pieces of booze–stained
clothing.
One was Frank’s suit jacket and the other
was the dress Jessica wore tonight.
In the face of my question, Frank was rarely
embarrassed.
“Jessica’s clothes were dirty, and I thought
you were used to doing housework anyway.
Washing one or two pieces is the same. So I
just brought them both
L
After saying that, he thought of something
again, and became righteous.
“At worst, I will use another reconciliation
coupon, there are still so many anyway, so I
can save you from being petty.”
All the words were stuck in my mouth by this
sentence.
I wanted to tell him.
Frank, there were no more.
There was only one “Doghouse Card” left of
the 99 reconciliation coupons.
But with the words on the tip of my tongue, I
just took a deep look at him and stuffed the

In the past, in order to ensure his clothes
were clean enough, I never used the washing
machine, and washed them myself little by
little every time.
Looking back on it now, I was really stupid.
The virtue I thought I was showing had
become a free babysitter in his eyes.
I smiled self–deprecatingly, closed the door,
and returned to the bedroom.
Seeing me come back so quickly, Frank was
stunned.
“So fast? Did you wash them clean? This is
Jessica’s favorite skirt, and I promised her I
would let you wash it clean.”
L
I hummed in acknowledgment, and started to
wash up.
But I was wondering which dry cleaner could
come to my door to pick up the clothes.
As I was thinking, I heard a familiar ringtone
from outside.
Frank glanced at my expression carefully, then took his cell phone and hid on the
balcony.
I quietly followed, and happened to hear
Jessica’s coquettish voice.
“Mr. Frank, the cake you bought me is so
delicious! I’ve never eaten such a delicious
cake before.”
く
“It’s just that the time in line was a bit long,
and I felt a little sorry.”
Frank glanced at the bedroom, and replied
dotingly.
“It’s okay, as long as you want to eat it, I’ll
buy it for you anytime.”
“I’m willing to do anything for you.”
Jessica laughed so hard that she trembled,
and opened her mouth娇滴滴.
“Then what about my dress? Is it not good to
let Miss Ashley wash it?”
“I don’t want to embarrass you.”
Frank chuckled.
<
“What’s so embarrassing? She’s used to
doing it. On the other hand, you, your hands
are so beautiful, I would feel bad if you did
rough work.”
I was stunned for a moment, and
subconsciously looked at my own hand.
Because of doing housework all year round,
the skin on my hands was indeed much
rougher, no wonder he looked down on it.
I didn’t want to listen anymore, so I fled into
the bathroom in a bit of a mess.
Ten minutes later, Frank knocked on the door.
“Ashley, there’s something going on at the
company, I have to go first, go to sleep early.”
<
I hummed in acknowledgment.
Just as he was about to go out, he suddenly
opened his mouth.
“Frank, if you don’t come back, can I use a
“Doghouse Card“?”
I looked at him, with a little bit of water still
remaining in the corners of my eyes that I

hadn’t had time to wipe away.
The man paused in his steps, and then
immediately turned around.
