And that's gonna be a DNF for me. Using the threat of rape to control your wife's clothing is not a book I wanna continue.

A little too much patriarchy in this one. If I read about a "husband's rights" to a woman's body or a woman's "ruin" one more time...

This is getting weird

That's who he is!! 😍

She acts so irrationally. Not a single thought, just anger and vibes. He told her everything, and she witnessed him avoiding this woman already. Yet as soon as that woman, who obviously has ulterior motives, says something, she believes it. And then, to start an unsubstantiated rumor just to get back at him is petty and childish.

Her insistence that he's stealing makes no sense. She goes over those books regularly and at least pretends like she knows what he's doing. Either she's just playing at understanding how to run the estate, or she's intentionally choosing to accuse him of something she has no proof of and nothing to even support her position. I'm not sure which is worse, an arrogant fool, or a liar.

So he's the bad guy?

Him: they forced me to marry a literally child, so I'm going to stand back and let her live as normal a life a possible without me bothering her. When she's an adult, we can discuss how to move forward.

Her: How dare he not bother me when I was literally 12. He obviously just wanted my money because he didn't try anything, and when I asked to further delay our meeting, he allowed it.
