Chapter 670 Somehow Grown Apart
1/5
Cora paused in her movements. Although they lived together
again after Byron returned from a business trip, she felt
that their relationship had grown distant for some reason.
Cora would sometimes wake up in the middle of the night to
find Byron missing from her side even though he had clearly
hugged her tightly to sleep.
Sometimes, he stood by the window and smoked, looking
preoccupied. Sometimes, he would fall asleep straight on the
couch.
Cora could vaguely sense that there seemed to be something
wrong between the two of them. However, she could not quite put her finger on it. Until she saw the red l*pstick stain on Byron’s shirt…
However, after being stunned for a few seconds, she
continued to help Byron unbutton the remaining buttons of his
shirt.
When she was almost done helping Byron get undressed and
tried to push him into the bathroom, he started getting touchy

with her.

“Shall we take a shower together?” He k*ssed her cheeks while
his hands began to wander across her b*dy.
His intention to get intimate with her in the shower was obvious.
Cora could smell the odor of alcohol that his b*dy reeked of
and took another look at the white shirt that she had thrown
on the ground.
The moment Byron’s l*ps touched hers, she dodged. “Go ahead on your own and go to bed after washing up. I’ll go and
check on Martin.”
She also shoved the towel and bathrobe directly into his hands before turning around to go upstairs.
Byron thought she just disliked the smell of alcohol on his
b*dy, so he did not think much of it and simply turned around
to enter the bathroom.
When Byron woke up the next day, Cora was already
preparing to take Martin to school.
“Remember to lock the door when you leave.” When Cora saw that he had woken up, she gave him those instructions with a
straight face. Then, she took Martin out.

Byron tried to stretch his b*dy, only to be restricted.

After getting up, he realized that he had fallen asleep on the couch last night.
In fact, he had been sleeping on the couch rather often lately. Due to the fact that the couch was relatively small, he would wake up feeling uncomfortable every single time.
However, he had been suffering from frequent insomnia recently. In order to avoid disturbing Cora and Martin, he
chose to sleep on the couch instead.
As for the reasons for his insomnia… The thought of it would
make him feel vexed, followed by a strong desire to smoke every single time.
However, after searching around, he still did not find his cigarettes. He thought that there should still be some in the
pockets of the clothing he had changed out of yesterday.
Hence, he proceeded to rummage through the laundry
basket.
Cora would set out early and come home late every day
because she was busy with opening her medical clinic.
Hence, she could only sort and do the laundry after work each
Chapter 670 Somehow Grown Apart night.
Byron quickly found his clothes in the laundry basket, as well as his cigarettes. However, at the same time, he also discovered the l*pstick stain on his shirt.

Recalling the fact that Cora had helped him undress last night, he reckoned that she must have seen the l*pstick mark. However, she did not say anything about it.
Byron stared at the l*pstick mark and squeezed the cigarette case in his hand while his eyes became deep and cold…
Cora planned to head to the medical clinic after sending Martin to the kindergarten.
The clinic was already undergoing renovation. To avoid having to redo anything and affecting the project’s progress, she spent most of her time there supervising the work.
While on her way to the medical clinic, she kept thinking about the l*pstick stain on Byron’s shirt last night, which made her feel uneasy.
At this moment, a teacher from Martin’s kindergarten called, “Hello, are you Martin’s parent?”
“Yes, I am! Did something happen to Martin?” Cora asked,
feeling as if her heart was about to jump out of her chest.
