Aren’t they a little too far in the relationship to be fighting over something like this

The side couple is ....

Tbh, I never felt like this couple had much of a chemistry aside from the sexual kind. I understand your frustration with the argument in this chapter but I sincerely feel like it’s way more than mc thinking ml could’ve slept with his brother. From the start, ml has been so secretive about his past and it’s clear that mc has opened up more than ml. Mc was probably ok/thought he was ok with ml sleeping with clients initially but the longer they date, the more he realised that he feels uneasy with ml’s secretiveness (WHICH IS COMPLETELY OK BTW, your opinion can change). Especially with the ex appearance and everything. The brother is just a catalyst that turned mc’s anxiety into doubt. It sounds like I’m just blaming ml but clearly both of them are at fault and this convo could’ve gone better with better coms from both sides :,(

It’s also possible that I’m reading too much into everything and mc simply went into panic mode and tried to do damaged control out of jealously. Which failed lol.

Yes to all of thisssssssssss!!! I think you summarized it pretty well! Like you said, I feel like the MC thought he would be okay with it and maybe he was at first, but now that he’s actually experienced it, he feels differently.

Reading this has changed my pov actually and I think i was a little harsh on the mc I just feel like he should have a little more trust in the ml and should know he wouldn’t do something like that especially knowing that he knows who his brother is but I do now see he is just really anxious about him sleeping around and being secretive even though it’s part of the job , I just feel like these two shouldn’t even be together, it’s a real shame because I think the story started off to strong

I knowww!! I’m still routing for the both of them though! These two could definitely be a power couple whenever they decide to get on the same page
