Amelia's sense of propriety and distance made Christopher feel both happy and sad at the same time.
Propriety is a rare quality, and when someone possesses it, they wouldn't behave recklessly, at least knowing their limits.
This was the reason for his happiness.
His sorrow came from the sense of distance.
It seemed like he had entered a fake marriage, and his wife was not close to him.
The way they interact was like that of strangers.
Just like the two cats at home, occasionally coming out for a rub.
After rubbing, they would hide again.
Such great behavior.
During normal days, it was tolerable, but now... He couldn't stand it when Amelia said those words in public.
As for Amelia, she always felt that she was not at fault. Even if there was fault, it was Christopher's, not hers.
How could one force someone to love?
Wasn't this like forcing someone to defecate while they were sitting on a toilet?
