Still trembling, still pretending.
James Black couldn't be bothered to expose Jane Sampson's addiction to pretense anymore; after all, once her hair was dry, there would be no escaping.
During the 20 minutes that James Black was drying her hair, Jane's mind was constantly whirring, but only one thing was being considered.
And that was, how should she escape later?
However, by the time James Black had turned off the hair dryer, she still hadn't thought of a plan.
While James Black was cleaning up the hairdryer cord, Jane looked at him, tentatively tugged at his arm, and then said, "It's very late, why don't we rest now?"
James glanced at the hand pulling on his arm and said softly, "Let go."
Seeing that Jane did not move, James sneered and said, "It's only a little past eleven. Even if you lay in the bed, it's highly unlikely you'll close your eyes and sleep obediently."
As his wife, James knew her well.
