the husband won't notice, but he will.

the husband will never notice the new dress, but Joaquin will definitely point out how perfectly it fits her. Christian will ignore her reluctance to do something, but he will do everything possible to do it himself, allowing the woman to just watch him and leave all the work to him. Joaquin has been watching for these six years how his friend Christian simply spits on his wife's desires, while he just watches. or... maybe he has already realized that it's time to act?

-mine has finally become more silent, thank God... - Christian grumbled as if he was talking not about his wife, but about some dog behind the fence, which was bothering him with its barking. it was boring and disgusting even to listen to.

-yeah, finally...

whispering something under his breath, Joaquin only rolled his eyes in response to his friend's statements. briefly pulling his jacket off the back of his chair, the man casually threw it over his shoulders, already hurrying to the exit of the office where he worked with Chris. he needs to hurry, because he hasn't even gotten into the car. well, you know... Chris was undoubtedly interesting, but his wife was even more interesting. a woman who can be courted.

a woman who put up with a cold husband for so many years, ceasing to value herself. a woman who saw a chance in Joaquin. a woman who remembered that she has the right to be proud of herself, to love herself and even give a chance to someone who sees in her not just a woman, but Miranda. who sees her soul and heart, personality.

a year and a half has passed since Miranda allowed Joaquin to take those first steps behind her husband's back. She allowed him to court her, albeit a little.
