"My email?" Becky asked with a frown, her dim eyes narrowed in confusion.
"Yes," Cindy replied shortly. Cindy then took her laptop from the desk at the side. After she turned it on, she quickly typed on the keyboard and entered the email address and password as Becky had told her.
There was a new email from an anonymous address in the inbox. Cindy clicked on it and checked its content curiously. While looking at it, Cindy's face looked puzzled at first and then gradually, her expression froze after she saw clearly what was on the screen. She quickly skimmed through the whole email with astonishment written all over her face. Then, she scrolled back up and read it all over again to double check, as if she was afraid that she had misunderstood what she had just read.
Becky felt that the atmosphere in the room suddenly got tense despite the silence. So, she turned her eyes to look at the screen, only to see blurred lines of texts and the dim outlines of some pictures. "Cindy, what's it about? Who sent it to me?" Becky asked doubtfully.
Cindy, still overwhelmed by the content of the email, furrowed her eyebrows, and the disdain in her eyes gradually spread all over her face. She couldn't help but shout,"How dare he do such a thing!"
"What happened?" Becky asked worriedly.
Cindy snapped the laptop shut. With a furious flame burning in her eyes, she ground her teeth and said angrily,"Becky, we have to go back to A City right now!"
Becky frowned and glanced at the laptop curiously, then asked,"What on earth happened, Cindy?"
Cindy nearly hit the ceiling, yet she kept silent and didn't utter a word. She couldn't figure out how to tell Becky that Brian had brought a woman to his villa and had been living with her ever since!
Becky waited for Cindy's answer for a while. Then she pressed her lips and said,"Cindy, I don't want to go back!"
"Why? Don't you want to have your eyes treated?" Cindy shouted furiously and then added,"Even though you don't care about your eyes, don't you care about Brian? Don't you care that he doesn't love you anymore and has another woman?"
"Of course, I do!"
Becky replied immediately to Cindy's chain of questions, denying strongly that she didn't care about Brian at all. Based on it, she had guessed out the truth why Cindy was furious all of a sudden. She bit her lip and asked,"What did you find out from the email? Who sent it? Did Brian... Did he... he..."
Becky stammered and failed to finish her words. Her blurred eyes were wide open and closely staring at Cindy.
