Chapter 872 Lucas's Persistent Failures
"Hey, sis, what were you doing just now?" Kevin couldn't help but ask as soon as the call connected. He was curious if his cousin had been intimate with her husband.
"Oh, your brother-in-law was here," Audrey replied.
"Were you doing it with him?" Kevin asked jealously, confirming his suspicions.
"What are you thinking?" Audrey's tone was annoyed. "We were just discussing some matters. He's gone to take a shower."
"Oh, okay." Kevin laughed awkwardly, feeling relieved that they hadn't been intimate. "Sis, I miss you."
"Mm," Audrey responded quickly, "I miss you too."
Kevin's heart soared. Even if they couldn't be physically close, talking like this made him happy. "Sis, when are you coming back?"
"In a few days," Audrey hesitated. "I still have some things to handle here."
"Sis, let's video chat. I want to see you, like last night," Kevin suggested, his mind filled with images of Audrey's stunning appearance and alluring body.
"Not tonight. Your brother-in-law will be back soon after his shower," Audrey quickly refused. "Maybe tomorrow. I have to go now." With that, she hung up.
Kevin was a bit frustrated as he lay on his bed, scrolling through his phone. He suddenly noticed a message from Grace that he had missed earlier in the afternoon and quickly replied.
A few minutes later, Grace responded, "You little rascal, it took you so long to reply. I just finished my shower and am about to sleep. We'll talk later."
Kevin felt even more dejected. It seemed Grace might also be getting intimate with her husband. While he knew it was normal for married couples, it still made him uncomfortable, feeling like his possessions were being taken by someone else. Maybe he was just too greedy.
Having affairs with these married women was like stealing from others, but over time, he had deluded himself into thinking they belonged to him. He wasn't rich enough to support so many women, and even if he were, women like Alissa and Grace wouldn't abandon their long-established marriages just for him. They were likely just seeking to satisfy their desires.
Kevin felt genuine love for Audrey, though. If she ever divorced her husband, he would want to be with her and make her his woman. But he was just a high school student, unable to support himself, let alone a woman.
He remembered shopping with Audrey when they first met. She had told him that her shoes alone cost a thousand or two, and she could only afford them occasionally. The world was harsh; money was essential for everything. Without it, dreams were just illusions.
Given his current situation, Kevin couldn't realistically discuss such matters with Audrey. His best bet was to date someone like Laura, a schoolgirl, enjoy carefree high school romance, and spend weekends watching movies. His young shoulders couldn't bear the weight of a grown woman's needs.
But Kevin refused to accept this reality, naively believing that mutual affection was enough. However, no matter how he felt, the truth was that Lucas, despite his flaws, was Audrey's only support. Even if she divorced Lucas, she would seek another man, not a high school student, no matter how skilled he was.
Meanwhile, in her room in Starhaven, Audrey was also feeling conflicted. Though she and her husband had reached an agreement, she couldn't feel happy. Her husband had returned home excited, saying his company boss had praised him and promoted him to business manager, overseeing seven or eight drivers. His salary had increased from three thousand to eight thousand per month, with additional bonuses, potentially earning him two to three hundred thousand a year.
Audrey looked at her jubilant husband, seeing no intention of returning to their hometown. The more successful he became here, the less reason she had to persuade him to go back. But what could she do? She couldn't really divorce Lucas.
Perhaps she felt insecure. Since arriving in Starhaven, she had struggled to adapt. The city was large, bustling, and full of wealthy people, with a fast-paced lifestyle. People constantly moved in and out of their complex. Besides her husband and a few acquaintances, she faced strangers daily, making her, accustomed to the tranquility of a small city, feel uneasy.
Back home, life was slow and steady, with little expense. She could follow a regular schedule, enjoying her free time after work and having two vacations a year. For someone with modest desires, it was an ideal lifestyle.
But in Starhaven, everything changed. Money ruled all, and everyone openly craved it. Success was measured by wealth, and without it, one was looked down upon, even by sales clerks at the mall.
Audrey wasn't a materialistic woman, but she didn't prioritize wealth either. Otherwise, she wouldn't have chosen Lucas, a penniless man with big dreams, over wealthy suitors.
Her ideal life was simple: working, cooking, eating together, chatting, shopping on weekends, and having a child eventually. Many teachers lived this way, but her husband couldn't fulfill this simple dream. He wanted to succeed and become wealthy. She was already twenty-six, nearing thirty. In their small hometown, few married women her age were childless. Even ambitious women like Vanessa had children. Was she worse than Vanessa?
Just then, Lucas entered, seeing Audrey deep in thought on the bed. He approached with a smile, saying, "Honey, I'm off tomorrow. Let's go to the city to watch a show. I got us tickets to the Grand Theater. There's a ballet performance, your favorite."
"Really? That's nice," Audrey forced a smile. She had loved ballet in school, even joining a ballet club and practicing for a while. But her large breasts made her look awkward in ballet outfits. On stage, the audience's eyes always focused on her ample chest, not the performance. Other dancers felt she was showing off, eventually forcing her to quit the club. Still, she often watched ballet performances, and Lucas used to accompany her before they married.
"What's wrong, honey? You used to love ballet. These tickets are hard to get. I bought them from a scalper for nearly a thousand each," Lucas said, surprised by her lack of enthusiasm.
"It's nothing, Lucas. Don't buy such expensive tickets anymore," Audrey shook her head. "I'm not that into ballet."
She used to find watching ballet with Lucas joyful. He once queued all night for tickets, nearly catching a cold, and she had bought him medicine. They had been poor but happy. Now, she didn't know why she couldn't feel the same joy or excitement for ballet.
"It's okay. Tell me what you like, and I'll get it. We can afford it now," Lucas said, feeling proud. He looked at Audrey in her black nightgown, her breasts high and firm without a bra, her nipples like rabbit eyes teasing him. Her thin, transparent panties revealed her pubic hair and enticing vagina.
Lucas's penis quickly hardened. He climbed into bed, hugging Audrey's waist, one hand caressing her smooth thigh, the other groping her right breast. Unable to control himself, he said, "Honey, let's do it."
"No, I'm tired," Audrey said, blushing, her body squirming. "Lucas, I'm really exhausted. Let's sleep early and do it another time." She was drained from their recent arguments and Kevin's call had left her feeling down, making her reluctant to be intimate with her husband.
"Honey, we haven't done it in a while. You only used your mouth the other day. I haven't even been inside you," Lucas protested, his hand moving from her thigh to her crotch, rubbing her vagina through her lace panties. Feeling her soft, slippery flesh, he grew more excited, his penis pressing against her buttocks.
Since Audrey arrived in Starhaven, they hadn't had proper sex. He was either away on business or not in the mood. People assumed he enjoyed nightly pleasures with his beautiful wife, but in reality, he hadn't even entered her once. Determined, he vowed to succeed tonight.
The thin panties rubbed against Audrey's labia, sending waves of pleasure through her. Despite her resistance, her neglected body couldn't withstand the stimulation. Soon, her pink lace panties were soaked with her juices, even wetting Lucas's fingers.
"Honey, you're so wet. You must want it too," Lucas said, showing her his glistening fingers. "It's been so long. Don't you miss it? How did you manage back home? Did you use your hand too? Tonight, I'll make it up to you."
"You're so annoying," Audrey said, feeling a mix of shame and anger. She felt guilty, knowing Kevin had often pleasured her with his mouth and fingers, even accidentally inserting his penis head once. Though she didn't consider it true intercourse, it was a weak justification to soothe her guilt.
Lucas's teasing and her own guilt made her feel conflicted, not knowing how to respond.
