Hold My Tear, I’m Getting My Wife Back!

The family house was quiet and peaceful in the dead of night, its elder inhabitants and the household staff long retired to their beds, unaware of the passionate reunion unfolding in the guest room on the third floor.

Phillip lifted Tina into his arms, carrying her to the bed as he expertly peeled away her clothes, stirring her desires.

Tina didn't resist; instead, she met him with equal fervor.

In that moment, all pretense of decorum was forgotten. Phillip found himself crossing lines he never would have considered before, all for her. Maybe being in his family home made Tina nervous, or perhaps Phillip was purposely being rougher as some sort of punishment.

Either way, the intensity overwhelmed her, her blood boiling with an uncontrollable fervor. She buried her face in the pillow, muffling her involuntary cries. Afterward, Phillip carried her to the shower, then they lay together on the bed covered with pink sheets, his arms encircling her from behind.

"You need time to think, and I'll give you that," he said, his voice gentle yet firm. "Just put off your engagement with Alfred until you've made up your mind."

Tina barely opened her eyes to glance at him before closing them again, emitting a non-committal murmur that held the weight of a promise.

She didn't know when Phillip left; he was there when she fell asleep but gone by morning. She had been recuperating at the Richardsons' for a few days, and her routine had become surprisingly healthy. Glancing at the clock, she noted it was only 7:30 a.m.

Stretching, she made her way downstairs, where Phillip was already having breakfast.

He looked up as she descended, his gaze briefly passing over her before returning to his coffee, showing no sign of their closeness from the night before.

Maddox and Jennifer were also at the table. Tina greeted them good morning and joined them for breakfast.This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.

After eating, she set down her fork. "Maddox, Jennifer, thank you for taking care of me these past few days. I've imposed on your kindness long enough. A friend asked for my help with a photoshoot, so I'll be leaving this afternoon."

Phillip caught her eye from across the table but remained neutral.

Jennifer said, "You're always welcome here. Next time you're in Stonebridge, you must stay with us."

"Thank you. I'll come and visit whenever I can," Tina replied sweetly.

After breakfast, Tina went upstairs to pack. Phillip, ready to leave for the office, was stopped by Jennifer.

"I need to talk to you," she said.

Phillip glanced at the clock before sitting across from her. "What is it?" he asked, as Jennifer searched for the right words.

"What exactly is going on between you and Tina?" she finally asked, her tone serious.

It wasn't hard for Jennifer to sense the unusual tension and the silent exchanges between them.

"It's exactly as you've guessed," Phillip admitted, unabashed.

"Do you still have feelings for her?" Jennifer asked, though she doubted Tina felt the same. "If she wanted to marry you, she wouldn't have

insisted on breaking off the engagement. She faced a lot of backlash for that decision."

Phillip didn't flinch. "I'm waiting for her answer."

"Tina's engagement to Alfred is almost finalized. They'll probably be engaged in a month or two. Phillip, you've always been prudent. Don't lose your judgment now. It's best if yott and Tina keep your distance."

"I can't do that," Phillip said firmly. "I can't let her go."

Jennifer sighed deeply, feeling

helpless. Between Curtis's rebellious antics and now Phillip's

entanglement with his ex-fiancée, the family dynamics were more strained than ever.
