Chapter 23
I looked at Zain and I could feel his steady breathing shaking as he released his hand from pulling the suitcase tightly and stroked my long hair calmly.
I could feel the comforting feeling of his fingertips touching my scalp through my hair.
“Is this a forced marriage?” Zain asked me in a serious way.
I buried my head tightly in his arms and stayed silent, I just wanted to keep him, I didn’t want to end our relationship because of a misunderstanding, it’s okay not to get married, it’s okay whatever, but I couldn’t bear the thought of him leaving me.
Zain gently pushed me away, his big hand touching my small face and gently wiping away the tears, “What am I going to do with you?”
I s*cked in my nose without image, pursed my lips, and said, “Don’t be mad, okay?”
“Would you be angry if I made you wait four hours for me?” Zain Yi asked rhetorically, “Do you know I’ve been on a plane for over ten hours just to see you.”
As soon as Zain Yi’s words left my mouth, I stood on my tiptoes and k*ssed him on the lips, “I’m sorry to keep you waiting.”
“That’s it?” Zain looked at me unsatisfied and asked with a raised eyebrow.
“I’m pregnant, and if I’m not, you can do whatever you want with me.” I whispered, how I felt so much thicker, when I used to be with Loius Lu, life was numb, I was careful to be a virtuous woman, not a word of such frivolous words.
After Zain heard my words, he embraced me in his arms with great care, his Adam’s apple moved up and down, and his voice said in a deep voice, “Know what? When I called you and you lied to me, I was really angry. Cynthia Mo, I don’t want you to hide anything from me, do you understand?”
I nodded nicely, “Yeah, I understand.”
“Go and quit your job tomorrow.” Zain Yi ordered overbearingly, and I, who was still quietly letting him hold me in his arms, immediately pushed him away at the words.
I shook my head and refused, “No, I had a hard time finding this job.”
As soon as the words fell, Zain Yi’s handsome face sank and his forced eyes stared at me intently, he forced me to obey him with his silence.
“This way, we’ll each make a concession, and I’ll come back when I’ve made it to my belly, okay?” I spoke extremely softly, always watching his face, just in case I made him angry.
It’s only been a short time since I’ve been pregnant, and if I don’t say anything, who’s going to know I’m having it.
“Come back tomorrow, I don’t want to talk about it.” Zain looked at me seriously and came forward to pick me up across the room, and I used to circle his neck.
I didn’t want to talk back and quietly leaned into his arms.
He sends me to my room and pulls the blanket up to cover me, and if it weren’t for my pregnancy, I’m sure we’d probably be tightly entwined again right now.
He turned, untied his tie, took off his suit, and climbed into b3d as well, under the same blanket as me, and held me in his big arms.
“What’s wrong?” I gently touched his forehead, only to have him shake his head wearily and close his eyes.
“I’m so tired, I just wanted to cuddle you to sleep, I have a flight back to the meeting tomorrow.” After saying that, within two minutes, he fell asleep.
I sadly looked at Zain Yi’s handsome face, slowly leaned in and k*ssed his lips, why did everything he did move me, I understood that my heart had gradually closed in on him.
The next morning, after I slowly opened my eyes, I saw that Zain Yi was getting dressed.
I braced myself to sit up, looked at his magnificent back, and asked, “Shall we go?”
“Yes, you don’t have to get up and prepare breakfast, there’s food on the plane.” Zain put on his suit, turned back and looked at me, “I’ll give you an explanation about the baby when I get back.”
“Is it going to be another week?” I was just concerned about his travel time, but I didn’t expect him to raise an eyebrow, smile shallowly at the corners of his mouth, and ask, “Is it because you’re afraid I’ll slip up and be irresponsible?”
I shook my head stunnedly, three fingers up, and said seriously, “Heaven and earth, I have an immense amount of trust in you.”
As soon as the words fell out, I discovered that I actually had the skill of flattery, and I found myself slipping so much more eloquently in front of Zain Yi.
He k*ssed me on the forehead, the corners of his spoiled mouth lifted and smiled, “I’m sort of defeated by your mouth.”
I looked at him quietly, all the haze from last night dissipating, I lifted the covers and got out of b3d, wanting to walk him out, but he wouldn’t let me, saying I’d better walk less now that I was pregnant, exaggerating like hell, as if he wanted to isolate me.
After he went out, he again told me that I must resign and return home when he returned from his business trip. I nodded perfunctorily and agreed.
I watched the driver come to pick him up and leave, and soon I washed up and went to work, Zain’s words to me, I can only listen to, I really do not want to go to the previous kind of muddle through. I’m not sure if I’m going to be able to do this, but I’m not sure if I can.
After I typed up the list one by one, counting and checking, I suddenly heard someone shouting outside.
Chapter 24
I went to Jessy Mo’s place as soon as I got off work. I knocked hard on his door, and it was my sister-in-law who came over to open it, standing in front of me with disheveled hair and a decrepit face.
I pushed her away and shouted harshly, “Jessy Mo, you get out of here.”
Sister-in-law stood behind me in fear, she reckoned that it was the first time she had seen the normally gentle me so furious, and stood behind me trembling, afraid that I would shoot her too.
Jessy Mo opened the door from his room and walked out indifferently, seeing me and greeting me as he normally did, “Back?”
“Jessy Mo, what the hell do you mean?” I looked at him angrily and questioned, “How many times have I told you not to gamble, not to gamble, and you have to gamble and push those scoundrels into my company?”
“It can’t be helped,” Jessy Mo frowned, looking like a helpless rogue.
“Can’t help it, can you?” I stepped forward, swung my hand up and made a fist and kept pounding on him, I was heartbroken for my parents, why would they give birth to such an ungrateful son, I was unjust for myself, why would I have such an ungrateful brother.
Jessy Mo was so overwhelmed by my beating that he took hold of my arm and pushed me away, I was unsteady and sat directly on the ground, my sister-in-law, seeing this, immediately came forward to assist me and asked in a small voice of concern, “Is everything okay?”
I gritted my teeth, shook my head, looked at my sister-in-law and said hatefully and angrily, “sister-in-law, you too, brother this way you don’t care even if, why do you have to be the guarantor, a million ah, do you know what concept a million to us?”
My sister-in-law was too scared to say a word back to me, quietly bowing her head and listening to my count, helpless and pitiful tears dripping on the ground and dissolving into shadows of water.
I understand that I have a bit of a bad temper now, things have already happened, it’s useless for me to scold, I can only think of a solution now.
“Give me the real estate license, I’ll take it as a mortgage and see if I can get some money for it, we’ll figure out the rest.” I reached out to Jessy Mo and asked for the real estate license, but I didn’t expect him to still be standing in the same place.
I thought he didn’t hear me, and after repeating it again, Jessy Mo frowned and said with an apologetic face, “The house was mortgaged long ago, otherwise I would have just given the property deed to Brother Panther today.”
Jessy Mo’s words were like a thunderbolt in a clear sky, striking me so hard that I instantly lost consciousness, I leaned weakly against the cold wall and stared at Jessy Mo incredulously, if I had a dagger in my hand at the moment, I would have stabbed his chest without hesitation, I scolded Loius Lu for scum every day, I didn’t think that the biggest scum in the world was my own brother.
My whole body stiffened, my eyes woodenly looked forward, my emotions instantly exploded, and I yelled at Jessy Mo, “What should I do, Jessy Mo, tell me, how do I pay back the one million?”
“Cynthia Mo, you go beg Loius Lu to help me one last time.” Jessy Mo suddenly knelt at my feet, pulling my corner without dignity and shaking, his expression and actions reminded me of Loius Lu’s scene on my birthday, the same scene happened again, but this time I hardened my heart and coldly refused Jessy Mo.
“I’m divorced from Loius Lu, he doesn’t owe me anything, and I don’t have the face to beg him. Also, I’m warning you, don’t push the trouble you caused onto Mom and Dad’s side, if anything happens to their old man, I’ll kill you.”
I tried to leave, but Jessy Mo held on to me with a death grip, the man’s tears that don’t flow easily were worthless in his eyes, and he cried bitterly.
My heart gripped as the sound of crying entered my ears.
I turn around and see my sister-in-law’s blinded eyes again, what the hell is going on with the Moks? In the three years I’ve been married, has Mo Keung’s gambling addiction gotten deeper and deeper?
Whether it was Loius Lu’s connivance or Jessy Mo’s depravity, I couldn’t tell anymore.
A million dollars, where to raise the money, my mind is in a mess, I have no idea what road to take ahead, allowing Jessy Mo to be tortured to death by loan sharks?
I kind of hated the fact that I wanted him to die, but I was afraid of the pain my parents were suffering from white hair. And sister-in-law, this poor woman, has never had a good day since she entered the Mo family, and she lives a life of dread every day with a wimpy man.
“Xiao Cynthia, just help your big brother this time, next time he will never dare.” Sister-in-law couldn’t see her big brother begging so pitifully, and came forward to also say good things for him.
“It’s not that I’m not helping, I really don’t have the money.” I looked at my sister-in-law and said truthfully, “I netted a year’s rent put on the apartment, and after the furniture was bought, there was only a little left for food.”
As soon as the words fell out, the sounds in the room immediately stopped, and Jessy Mo sat on the floor with his heart dead and desperate eyes hanging on the floor. Sister-in-law smiled dejectedly, crouched down, and tore her heart out, pounding Jessy Mo.
A home is not a home, this is the big brother promised his sister-in-law that he would give her a happy home, but now it is in shambles because of gambling. I looked at them with a blank expression, but my heart was more panicked than theirs.
I promised the loan sharks today that I would pay them back in three days, and I have squeezed myself into this vortex.
I don’t know how I got out of Mojang’s house, but on the way, I walked quietly, the cool breeze of late autumn blowing relentlessly on my face, and I pursed my lips to keep the bitter tears of life from falling.
After I took the bus back to my apartment, I sat quietly on my b3d alone, my legs slightly curled up, my head buried in my knees, I didn’t know how to solve this situation now.
