Zac sighed deeply. He was extremely depressed. It seemed that they had been back to their former relationship. All his previous efforts were futile because of this.
After she washed the dishes and came out, he asked her, "Do you want to treat me as a passer-by in this three months?"
She shook her head, "No, we're not passersby. We're partners with a marriage certificate." Before she got an exact answer, her heart was like a floating clouds in the sky. She couldn't fly up to the clouds or be safe landing on the ground. She was like suspending in the middle of the air, she didn't feel at ease.
"Is this a kind of indirect punishment?" He frowned and asked in a gloomy voice.
"It's a disguised form of protecting myself. The further you stay away from me, the safer I will be." She said in a cold tone, "If possible, we'd better not see each other for the next three months. You can just do whatever you like to do and I'm happy to be alone, so that your lover won't come to bother me." Since Valery had turned over, she would definitely take advantage of the situation and wouldn't be rest until she forced him to divorce her. She wouldn't give up until she returned her position as the future hostess of the Rong family to her.
A bitter smile came from the lips of Zac. It seems that three years has passed without seeing her for only one day. If he would be forbidden to see her three month, it'd be better to kill him directly.
"Have you ever missed me when you were not with me?" He asked in a trembling voice.
"Since you don't miss me, why should I flatter myself to miss you?" She asked in reply. She never did anything to make herself look bad.
"How do you know that I won't miss you?" He frowned.
"You are too busy to have time to do such a boring thing to miss me." She jeered at him. One was Valery and the other was Leila, he was already very busy with the two people, she was only the substitute. She was nothing more than a substitute in his heart, and she was even not able to occupy a corner in his heart when he was not bored. How could he deserve such a great honor?
"Everything related to you is no boring thing." He said it word by word solemnly. In his heart, she was more important than anyone or anything.
"You don't have to fawn on me." She shrugged her shoulders with a look of indifference. "Now I won't pay much attention to you. Don't push me too hard. Let's talk about it after three months."
"Since you insist, I have nothing to say." His eyes were gloomy and the sun was shining brightly outside but could not reach his eyes.
They went back to Dragon City in the afternoon. During this period, Valery called several times. She finally won one round, but she was so arrogant, totally forgetting her identity of being his mistress and putting her in the original position of being his wife.
A look of ridicule was written all over her face, together with her resentment and dissatisfaction towards this man. If it weren't for the fact that he had compromised and accepted her as a new member of the Rong family, she wouldn't have the nerve to act against him.
