I stared at Jerry Lu with my crying eyes, “Why did you tell me?”
“What I can’t get, Zhiyu Yin can’t get either.” Jerry smiled, a smile that contained so much hypocrisy. I had never taken a serious look at his handsome face with wrinkles, so closely.
I didn’t know what happened between Jerry and Zhiyu, but I was sure it was about money.
I sat back down in my seat, gazing at the cup of coffee on the table.
“Nance Mo, I had a bad time since our divorce.” Jerry said softly, looking at me with a serious expression, “After Duo Lian gave birth to our daughter, she was like a different person, checking my phone every day as if I were a thief. She even called my secretary, but you’ve never done this to me before.”
I scoffed, “So I’m stupid.”
“No, not really. I don’t cherish a good woman like you and I even hurt you for that little benefit. I know it’s a little too late for me to say this, but I really don’t want you to be cheated by Zhiyu.” Jerry’ s words made me ponder.
Jerry seemed to be nice to remind me of not hurting myself again, but his so-called good intentions were simply because his own interests couldn’t be met, so he chose to retaliate.
His revenge made me understand what was hurt.
I sat quietly in the café, and when Jerry saw me say nothing and his phone kept ringing as if he had a lot of things to deal with, so he stood up, looking down at me and said, “I need to go back to the office today, so goodbye.”
I didn’t answer him, instead, I looked out through the window.
It was drizzling outside and the pedestrians on the road were starting to find shelters. When you were in a bad mood, God knew it.
My phone rang, which was from Zhiyu, and after a quick glance, I just hung up and turned it off.
I didn’t know how long I had been in the café, but when I walked out, it was dark and dreary. The rain was beating down on me, wetting my jacket and also my riddled heart.
I didn’t want to believe Jerry’s words, but I still remembered Zhiyu’ s suspicious words and look when we first met.
At that time, I thought he was defending me, but now it seemed that he and Jerry had a falling out, and coincidentally, Yingzi went for him, so he naturally found me.
Then he pursued me as crazy as he could and stayed by my side.
I ended up being forced by Qi Ouyang to spend the rest of my life with him, which was really sad.
