Chapter 272

“That’s not the case!” Jaxton reported truthfully, “It’s just that Roselynn has a

bit of a temper and refused to come home with me for a long time. Jessica

even left first out of anger!”

“What a temper!” Jaxton’s mother, Jennifer Burke, immediately furrowed her

brow. “Jaxton, as a man, you have to tame her! If not, how will we deal with

that temper of hers?”

“I understand, Mom!”

Although Jaxton was on the shorter side, he had a strong sense of

masculinity. At the same time, he was worried that Jennifer and Roselynn

would not get along. Besides, to him, his mother was from a wealthy family,

while Roselynn was nothing more than a commoner girl no matter how

stunning she was. Hence, she was obligated to respect his mother and live

by the Oatley family’s rules.

Unaware of the family’s discussion, Roselynn dragged her exhausted body to

socialize with the Oatley family after returning home with them, and only

headed to the bathroom to take a shower upon seeing that it was nearly one

in the morning.

As it was her first day in the Oatley Residence, everything was unfamiliar to

her. Although their house wasn’t considered a grand mansion, they were still

much wealthier than the Lowe family, and it took Roselynn quite some time

to figure out the amenities in the residence, particularly in the bathroom.

Wanting to be clean and radiant on her wedding day, her shower lasted two

hours in the morning. When she returned to her room, she was immediately

!

met with the sight of Jaxton’s tanned face.

“What’s wrong with you? Get some rest soon if you’re tired!” she advised him

worriedly.

As a matter of fact, Jaxton had relentlessly pursued her for nearly two

months, and she thought that he was a decent man. Although he was

slightly arrogant, it wasn’t unacceptable. Moreover, she agreed to his

proposal as Alessandra was constantly worried that she would not be able to

get married. In all the time they had known each other, Jaxton had never lost

his temper at her, so she subconsciously assumed that she wasn’t the

reason behind his anger.

Unexpectedly, Jaxton suddenly rose to his feet and strode toward her in big

steps. Then, he immediately pushed her down on the bed.

“Hey, what are you doing?” Roselynn demanded, shocked.

“Didn’t you promise me that we can do the deed after we get married? I’m

going to fulfill my duty as a husband tonight!” Jaxton roared furiously, peeling

his clothes off.

A little terrified of his behavior, Roselynn hastily pushed herself up and

shoved him aside. “Jaxton, we’re both exhausted today. How about we leave

this for after the wedding is completely over?”

“Do you think I’ll keep listening to you? From today onward, I’m the head of the

house! Stop setting rules for me all the time!”

Upon saying that, he immediately pounced on her. He felt that this woman

had spent their entire wedding day disrespecting him and constantly

ordering him around. He was able to indulge her while they were dating, but

now that he was married, he had to live like a man!

“Move!” Roselynn was not a frail damsel in distress, and she easily sent him

flying to the ground with a kick.

“Jaxton, do you not understand what I’m saying? I said I’m really tired, so stop

making things difficult for me! We’re sleeping separately tonight!” she huffed,

genuinely angry.

Jaxton gritted his teeth, his face turning gloomy. However, as he was shorter

than Roselynn and not much heavier than her, he could not win over her

when it came to strength, so he had no choice but to leave the room without

another word.

Fine! Just wait, woman! Either way, you’re going to have to be tamed by me

now that you’re a part of the Oatley family!

Meanwhile, Roselynn was completely oblivious to Jaxton’s plan and only

assumed that he was unable to hold his urges back as he craved her body

too much. Since she had decided to become his wife, she had already

prepared to give herself up to him. However, she was just too tired that day

and did not wish to do anything else.

After locking the door, Roselynn immediately drifted off as soon as her head

hit the pillow. However, before she felt like she had gotten any sleep, she was

jolted awake by someone banging wildly on her door.
