He Said He’d Marry Her, So I Married Someone Else Chapter 28

He Said He’d Marry Her, So I Married Someone Else Chapter 28

When I was a girl, I loved reading romance novels.

There was a phrase they often used to describe the male lead: a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

It sounded like a criticism.

But it was really a compliment.

I just never imagined that a man like Daniel would have that side to him.

On our wedding day, he was the picture of handsome elegance, his tall frame perfectly tailored, his bearing as cool and remote as fresh snow on a distant mountain.

But on our wedding night…

After he took off that custom black tuxedo, he revealed a completely different side of himself.

It was the first time I had ever heard so many words of love that made me blush.

The first time someone had called me *mon cœur* in French, over and over again.

The first time someone had coaxed me through those embarrassing, intimate moments.

The first time I cried because it hurt, and then cried because it felt so good.

The first time I truly understood desire, tasted pleasure, and spent an entire, absurd night nearly forgetting what it felt like to be tired.

The next day, my first full day as a bride, I slept until noon.

While I was still lost in a deep sleep, Daniel had already completed his morning run, daily workout, morning tea, newspaper reading, and news briefing, all with boundless energy.

A few days after the wedding, the staff at the house were laughing about that morning.

“Madam, you have no idea how much Mr. Harrington smiled that day.”

“That’s right. I’ve been with the Harrington family for years, and it was the first time I’d ever heard him say so much in one morning.”

“He greeted everyone he saw, even my little grandson.”

“I think that day, he wished he could hang a sign around his neck telling the whole world he was married and madly in love with his bride.”

I was both embarrassed and amused. I made an excuse and hurried into the garden to hide.

From a distance, I saw Daniel’s black SUV pull through the gates.

He got out, handed his briefcase and coat to a servant.

Then he immediately looked in my direction.
