Chapter 22
"Why are you so tough on me? We were best friends before it happened and we could return to it "
"Return? you must be FUCKING crazy and out of your mind!" Meiyin responded with calmness.
If this was a trap then she was not going to fall for it!
She had seen and been in such situations in this dirty industry and will not fall in it twice.
Xiyu yanked her arms harshly and sneered at her face. The loathing in Xiyu's gazes made Meiyin almost scoff.
"What are you feeling yourself as?" Xiyu's face had utmost disdain as she started into Meiyin calm and pure eyes.
The commotions between the sisters caught the attention of the reporters and they hurried towards them guessing a fight was about to begin.
No reporter wanted to lose such chance to have views so they got their cameras ready for rolling.
Seeing the crowd gathered, Xiyu's voice softened and she spoke out loudly to be heard.
"Sister Meiyin, Are you still angry with me? That incident was years ago, can you just let go of it?" She plead more and tightened up her palms around Meiyin's wrist.
The two sisters gawked at each other with hatred for one another.
"I apologized hundred of times that I stole your fiancee, besides, Love can not be forced "
Meiyin's eyes teared up at the incident that flashed through her memory lane.
It still felt fresh and very much like it happened two days ago. A life lived in agony.
Meiyin balled her other fist and froze as her memory took her back.
..........
Flashback, Last 10Years.
"Mo Lingze! " The nineteen year old Meiyin hugged Lingze tightly.
Meiyin's and Lingze's we're officially dating and had advanced to the other stage, getting married.
They decided to start a family at their age and live in a small neighbouring country with four kids and a dog.
After Lingze bizarre proposal, Meiyin was so joyous that she agreed to marry him. Unknown to her, Life was not her family.
"What makes my darling come to my workplace?" Lingze patted hair and placed a kiss on her face.
However, he was four years older than her, they did not mind and loved each other or that is what she thought.
"Anytime I come to visit you at your house or office, you are always busy. You are either at the US or abroad. Do you not like me anymore?"
Meiyin sulked her lips like a little child being sorry for doing the wrong thing.
Her beauty was irresistible to all creature and not excluding Mo Lingze himself.
"It is not that I do not want to see you. It is just that I am busy. All the workload and paperwork plus the wedding " Lingze came up with an excuse.
How would he tell her that he fell in love with her cousin and kept her as a second hand?
His thought ran at a high speed. He looked at the girl who sulked and smiled.
"I promise you, this weekend, we will have fun!" He kissed her on the lips and hugged her tightly.
Meiyin's mood lightened up and she blushed back at him. She still felt very shy being in a relationship with her middle school crush.
In her eyes, He was the only Mr. Perfect for her and she needed to grasp the opportunity.
Although the relationship was just eight month old, She felt very new to this kind of thing and her cheeks would false with red blossoms on her cheeks.
"Hope you keep your promise "
He drove her back to the Zhang's mansion and then to his own.
He kicked open the door and removed his slippers only to see his girlfriend swirling the remote between her fingers.
"Where did you go to?" Xiyu shot him an intense scowl.
He sensed she was pissed off and rushed over to the couch to coax her.
"I can explain " He ran his fingers through her smooth hair.
"Do not make me repeat my sentence again!" Xiyu sounded so pissed off like a wife catching her cheating husband in the middle of the night.
She called his office line multiple times but could not go through. She was worried yet he went hanging out with her damn cousin!
"I was with Meiyin. You know it is just for the meantime, after we achieve what we want, I will let go off her " He traces his finger to her lips and stroked it.
"When would you tell her that you never liked her?"
Xiyu felt insecure and needed to get rid of Meiyin. Her beauty was a one undeniable fact and any man would want to pay the entire globe for her touch.
And also she hated sharing her man with some one else especially that BITCH.
"Xiyu, you know I can not tell her yet. All I have worked for would be in vain if I should break up with her "
" you know how hard it was to drop her shoulders around me and if we breakup, you will never be able to get the 5% shares she has in the Zhang group "
Lingze strived to reason out with her but it seemed she did not accept such.
