Hearing the tender voice of the woman on the other end of the phone, Fiona could imagine that that woman must be delicate and supple. She was so pitiful that Jeremy was obedient to her and tried his best to please her.
After he stopped talking, she looked at him blankly and didn't know what to say.
"Don't you have something to tell me?" Jeremy felt very sad, but he was also afraid that she would tell him she was leaving him. Thus, he couldn't help but felt nervous.
"Are you going on a business trip?"
"Yes."
In her mind, there was a voice telling her that she got married with him and she was his wife. It was normal for her to question him which woman he had made a call to.
But she swallowed the words in the end.
She thought too much. How could she have the qualification to do that?
She forced a smile, took two steps back and replied generously, "I didn't have anything else to say. Take care of yourself when you are on your way."
Jeremy said yes flatly and went to the garage by himself.
After that, she looked at him to get out of the house but she did nothing. She stood there for a long while, watching him drive away.
For the next few days, Jeremy didn't come back. She didn't know when he finished his business trip or when he would come back. He said he was his wife, but she didn't think she was in his eyes.
Feeling boring in the villa, Fiona went back to school and stayed there every night.
The two girls, Gail and Nanette, felt strange when they saw that Fiona was in low spirits like a walking dead, which was totally different from her former way.
Gail put down her headphones, nudged Fiona and asked mysteriously, "Did you have a fight with Mr. Fu?"
"No, I didn't." She really hoped that they could have a fight instead of being silent like that.
"You know what? I'm speechless with you. I can tell from your expression that you have problem. If you have something tough, we will surely help you."
She had never been in a relationship before, but she had seen a lot before. Love was not that mysterious to her.
But Fiona didn't get interested at all, putting her head on the table and motionless.
She lived in school peacefully before, and the Ling family didn't care much about her. But she would definitely go back as long as she got married to Jeremy. For their marriage, she had to make a good show of herself.
She was afraid that it was just a trade between them.
"Ah!"
She roared, and then turned very sad. "What should I do? I feel that I'm very contradictory."
Gail thought there was something great happened to her as she could shout so loudly. But after a second thought, it should be nothing serious. She wore the headphones again and let Fiona deal her problem herself while Gail wen to see some soap again.
Just then, a piece of news popped up. The yelling was from Gail this time.
She pointed at the computer screen and remained silent for a long time.
She looked carefully at the direction of Fiona., who was unhappy and probably hadn't figured it out yet.
Gail thought it over and didn't know whether to tell Fiona what she had read.
Nanette was impetuous, and she didn't like talking in a roundabout way. She directly knocked at the table of Fiona and said decisively, "Hey, there's some bad news, you've been cuckolded."
...
Jeremy was back, and he got off the airplane with a woman. They walked arm in arm, and both of them looked very handsome and eye-catching. Many reporters were questioning the relationship between the famous star, Rose Xu and Jeremy.
She couldn't forget that Rose answered the reporters with both understatement and meaningful tone, "The relationship between Mr. Fu and me? You can guess."
Instead of responding, it sounded like a better response. If they didn't have any relationship, Rose would definitely refute the reporters decisively, but actually she didn't.
Before seeing what was happening, Fiona could not imagine that Jeremy was so nice to another woman. But she was heartbroken to see that today.
Would they go home?
She started to pack up. After all, she was Jeremy's wife.
When Fiona came back to the villa, she found that Jeremy hadn't come back yet. He had asked Ella to have holidays happily in the past few days. It had been several days since she went to stay at school. She was so hungry that his stomach was rumbling.
