Chapter 155
My questioning made Loius Lu shut his mouth for an instant, his hollow eyes containing tears, he looked at me longingly, then smiled helplessly, “Retribution.”
I was silent, the simple two words shook my heart heavily, yes, the modern world, how I hope that all the bad people in this world will get their retribution soon, but just can only think about it.
Maybe in the eyes of others, they also want me to get retribution.
“Cynthia Mo, I beg you for one thing.” Loius Lu was immersed in his remorseful emotions for a long time before he opened his mouth.
I nodded, thinking that as long as it wasn’t too much, I should say yes to everything.
“Help me go to the hospital to see Diana Lian.” Loius Lu’s tears fell like beads, choked up, and continued, “If you can, help me take care of my mother and my three children.”
“Okay.” I promised.
“Why did you promise so quickly?” Loius Lu looked at me puzzled.
“So tell me, why are you giving money to Jessy Mo when we’re divorced? Why do you give it when you know he won’t give it back?” My questioning made Loius Lu silent again.
I sometimes can’t understand what’s going on in a man’s mind, does he think I’d appreciate it if he gave Jessy Mo money without telling me? He paid, perhaps for my sake, but allowed Jessy Mo to get deeper and deeper into gambling and eventually go down the wrong path.
Of course, I can’t blame Loius Lu, all of this is in the past, and there’s no significant point in saying it again.
The visit was short, and at the end of it, when Loius Lu was brought through that iron door, he smiled sadly back at me, and what that smile meant, I’m not sure, but I saw the tears in his eyes, and my heart was very heavy.
John Yoon had been waiting for me outside the detention center, and when he saw me come out, he got off the station and waited on the side in a very gentlemanly manner.
“Cynthia Mo, do you remember what you said?” John reminded.
Of course I know, I said I’d take him out to dinner as soon as he arranged for me to meet with Loius Lu, being a man of my word, I’m not going to deny that.
I met John Yoon’s gaze and felt that he was smarter than before, in the past, he would have asked me if I wanted to go for dinner. Or the attitude would have been more humble, but it was different now, he seemed to be getting what he deserved as a matter of course.
Without saying a word, I got into his car and he sat next to me, looking at me sideways.
The driver drove slowly, as if he was intentionally driving very slowly.
With a heavy heart, I turned my attention to the scenery outside the car window, a scene that was as fleeting as time. Suddenly a large hand fell and touched the back of my hand when I was shocked, instantly regaining my senses and looking at John Yoon.
“Scared?” John Yoon smiled apologetically, “I was going to ask you where to eat, but you looked like you were distracted.”
“Just pick a place.” I replied with a palpable sense of panic, having just had my hand touched by him, and for some reason, I was particularly panicked.
It always felt like I owed a favor to have him arrange to meet Loius Lu, and looking at that strange and eager gaze in John’s eyes, I finally understood one thing, time changes people.
I’m changing, and so is he.
“Well then, I’ll make the decision and go to the Imperial Palace.” John raised his mouth and smiled faintly.
I nodded and didn’t say anything, rich people like to go to the Imperial Palace, so go!
When the car pulled into the basement of the hotel, John opened the door for me and I got out of the car just in time to see Zain’s car parked directly across the street as well, without deviation.
When he saw me, and then looked at John Yoon standing beside me, his face visibly changed abruptly, and the cold light rolled over under his eyes. He slowly walked over to us, his eyes locked with mine.
I didn’t understand how it could be such a coincidence that Zain was here.
“Why is Azawa free to come to the Imperial today?” John Yoon smiled lightly, “What a coincidence, Cynthia Mo is inviting me to dinner today, if you’re alone, I don’t mind sitting with you.”
“It seems like you helped Cynthia Mo a lot, otherwise with her stingy and money-saving nature, how could she pay you out of her pocket to invite you to the Imperial Palace?” Yeol-taek insulted John and scolded me with a smile on his face.
It’s a perfect way to describe Zain, who is a cheapskate.
I’m cheap and economical, and every time he describes it, he brings me a great surprise.
“Cynthia Mo, spend time with John, find out what he likes to eat, and when we host the wedding banquet, order it according to his preferred taste so he can eat more.” Zain was always so abdominal, superficially polite, but always trying to one-up each other.
I didn’t say a word from start to finish, I didn’t even know what I would be meeting Zain at the Imperial, what was he doing here, dining with clients, or?
I watched as Zain’s figure got onto the elevator, John called me softly, and after I slowed down, I followed his footsteps up the stairs as well.
While in the elevator, my eyes glanced at John Yoon, who had hatred in his eyes, he didn’t originally have this horrible look in the car, but it had completely changed after just meeting Zain.
At that moment, his phone rang, he looked at it and just hung up.
When the phone rang again, he answered it and then just said that he was having dinner with a client, so don’t call if it’s nothing.
Chapter 156
“By the look in your eyes, you seem to hate me too?” I wasn’t sure why I was asking this question, and I smiled bitterly when I saw Diana Lian blink.
She must think that I told Loius Lu about that last incident at the station, or else her mood wouldn’t have fluctuated so much when she just saw me.
“I’m telling you, I didn’t tell Loius Lu at all about that man you were flirting with at the station. This downfall you’re in is completely the result of you not knowing how to restrain yourself, in fact, Loius Lu already knew that you had a man outside, do you think that Loius Lu didn’t know that you gave money to that man without God’s knowledge?” I looked at Diana sarcastically.
I vaguely remembered the Diana who was screaming at me with her belly, and it was hard to imagine her lying so miserably in b3d a few years later, and I wondered if she would ever recover.
But I didn’t want to irritate her any more, at least she was the mother of three children.
As I walked out of the room, I specifically sought out Diana’s primary doctor, and learned from him that Diana’s face was completely disfigured, including a broken tendon in her right hand and loss of use. There were scars all over her body, and even if they healed, the patient would be left with permanent psychological trauma.
Physical wounds are easy to heal, but psychological wounds can never be healed.
I walked into the hospital with a heavy heart and took a taxi back to the EY. Belle was out of school and was running in the yard, and when she saw me, she ran up and hu*ged my th!ghs and pampered me, “Mommy, where have you been, tomorrow weekend, will you go to the playground with Daddy with me?”
I’ve been so busy with other people’s business lately that I’ve neglected my own baby girl, so I squatted down and gently touched Belle’s little face and said, “When Daddy comes home tonight, I’ll ask if he’s free and we’ll make a decision, okay?”
Belle nodded her head nicely and replied, “Good.”
“So good.” I k*ssed Belle’s little face lightly and got up and led her inside.
I couldn’t be sure if Zain was free or not, my heart had been blocked after seeing him laughing and leaving with that woman today.
I didn’t call Zain to question him, I hadn’t wanted to talk to him after he forcefully possessed me that day. I heard the sound of his car driving into the yard at eleven o’clock at night.
I turned on my side and deliberately pretended to sleep until the door was opened. He used to take a shower every time he came back, then sit and wipe his hair.
I kept my back to him, not sure if I was pretending to be asleep too deliberately or if Zain was particularly observant.
“Don’t pretend if you can’t sleep.” Zain’s voice rang out behind me teasingly.
As soon as I heard it, I just braced myself and sat up against the b3d.
“Go get the hair dryer and blow my hair.” Zain called out unconcernedly, and when he pulled the towel off his head, he saw that I hadn’t even moved, and instantly frowned, asking, “What’s the matter, you don’t even want to do such a small thing now?”
“Belle wants to go to the playground tomorrow.” I spoke very coldly, like I was making a report.
For the first time talking to him these days, the only thing I could pull off was about my daughter. This cold war was kind of longer.
“You just go with her.” As soon as Zain’s words fell, I smiled bitterly, and after returning a “okay”, I pulled up the blanket and fell right back down to continue sleeping again.
“Cynthia Mo, did you ask John to arrange for you to meet with Loius Lu?” I didn’t answer when Yeats finally asked the question, but isn’t that the understandable thing to do?
Didn’t he guess it today in the underground parking lot.
I guess I ignored him, but he just sat on the b3d, pushed me lightly on the back and said, “It’s been a few days, what do you want?”
I remained silent.
“You’re acting generous in front of others, but you’re fighting me to the death in front of me, right?” Zain pushed my back again, and then suddenly, his big hand reached right over and tickled my armpit a few times.
I’m a person who is afraid of itching, and when he did this, I got up angry and helpless, glared at him, and said sternly, “Can’t you be a little more mature, how old are you, is this funny?”
“Funny, you’ve finally opened your golden mouth,” Zain looked at me teasingly, “Women tend to get old when they’re angry, and after being angry for so long, it seems like they’ve gotten a little older.”
“It’s none of your business if you get old, you’ve got plenty of young women with you anyway,” I complained, and Zain immediately disowned me.
“Where are the young women, why don’t I see them?”
“Still say no, this afternoon in the basement of the Imperial Hotel, the one in the red dress…” before I could finish, I knew I was screwed, and in a couple of beats, Yeast blasted the truth out of me.
“So you saw that?” Yeats looked at me jokingly, “How come I didn’t see you, hiding in some corner peeping?”
I really have to be stupid, as smart as I am in front of other people, I become so stupid in front of Zain, so unable to hide my words, now that the words are out, it seems how small-minded I am.
“Yes, I saw, I saw you laughing and joking with that woman, very close, so I didn’t want to bother you.”
