Return, My Love: Wooing the Neglected Ex-Wife

Chapter 967:

A chorus of feminine voices filled the air, and Dunn found it irritating. “Don’t push it too far. Be careful with so many partners. You might end up with diseases you don’t want.”

Rickey waved him off, unfazed. “Don’t worry about me. You need to stop dragging your feet with Aurora. That’s your real problem.”

Dunn’s stomach tightened at the mention of Aurora, but he quickly dismissed the feeling. “Rickey, I don’t want to hear that again.”

His relationship with Aurora was sacred—he wouldn’t let anyone, not even Rickey, taint what he shared with her. “I’m done talking to you. Is there anything else, or are you going to leave me alone?”

Rickey ended the call with a lame excuse. He was watching a rom-com, but his anger surged so suddenly that he hurled his phone at the wall, the crash startling everyone in the room.noveldrama

“What the hell is wrong with you? You nearly gave me a heart attack!”

Rickey’s voice was ice cold. “Get out.”

“What’s going on now?”

“Get out!”

The group didn’t dare speak again and hurried out. One of the girls glanced back at him, lingering for a moment.

She was the only one with soft, delicate features, the kind that reminded Rickey of Aurora. He felt like he was losing his mind.

“You can stay.”

She looked up, surprised and a little flattered. “Me?”

Rickey didn’t answer, his fingers absently fiddling with the remote control. His friends pushed the bewildered girl onto the bed.

“Hey, go easy. Rickey’s still new to this!”

With a smirk, one of them waved at Rickey. “Don’t worry, we’ve got someone special for you. Enjoy!”

Rickey flushed with embarrassment and threw a pillow at them in irritation, but it ricocheted off the doorframe, falling to the floor. The girl was too scared to speak, unsure of what to do.

Rickey took a deep breath, the tension in his body easing. Once he calmed down, his presence seemed less intimidating. “Why are you doing this?”

The girl hugged herself tightly, as though trying to shield her vulnerability. “I don’t have enough money for living expenses.”

She quickly looked up, eyes wide with urgency. “Don’t get me wrong, I’m not selling myself. I just spend time with people as a companion. I don’t sleep with just anyone.”

In other words, she was still a virgin.

Rickey let out a quiet laugh, the sound laced with something like disbelief. Even if she was untouched, how could she compare to Aurora, whom he’d known since childhood? Aurora was like the moon—distant, unattainable, but beautiful in her purity.
