Words I Was Afraid To Hear Chapter 94

Su Linyu entered the hospital room and she was welcomed by dead silence .

Staring back at her were the hazel eyes of Victor Zhou .

"h.e.l.lo, Victor . " She had a smile on her face .

Victor Zhou blinked once as acknowledgement . Though his expression is flat, his eyes were like bottomless pits . One might try but will never get to know what is beyond them .

She suddenly chuckled . "You know, even though we both know that we never loved each other, I was happy for awhile . At least I married into a stable family . At least, I married a rich and capable man . " She moved towards him, then leaned in to face him . "It was good enough, until you became useless . "

She paused, straightened her back, then looked down on him . "Would you blame me for chasing my one true love?" She chuckled . "If it weren't for that foreign sl**, I would have married him . I have to commend you, though . You actually agreed to marry someone who had been humiliated in her engagement party . " Tears started to well up in her eyes .

She sat on a chair on his bedside . "I have to thank you . At least I had a capable son . You know what? I'll have him marry for the company . " She laughed . "Even if he doesn't want to, he can't object . Since you're already useless, he can't be incompetent too . "

Her monologue stopped as a nurse knocked on the door .

"Excuse me, Sir, Madam . I am here to take the patient's vital signs . "

Su Linyu smirked and stood up . She glanced back at her husband briefly before striding away .

Masaichi Xiu looked up from his desk . Riley just handed him some doc.u.ments .

"Still no lead huh . . ?" Masaichi's face was cool, but his voice had impatience in it .

"Unfortunately, our mole was not qualified for a higher position so his knowledge on the actual transactions were lacking . "

"Useless . " His voice was monotonous, but still intimidating . "Make him quit . I don't need someone who can be traced back to us . Send him overseas . "

"Yes, CEO . " Riley bowed and took his leave .

There was a knock on the door after Riley had left .

Secretary Ta walked in after being given permission . She carried a folder with her .

Masaichi browsed through the employee file and had a hint of smile . 'Such daring move . Madam Ming surely wanted too much, even throwing in her own daughter as collateral . '

He stared back at the photo in the resumé . Ming Rus.h.i.+'s bright face was staring back at him .

Xiu Jin was finally allowed on the bed . He was planning on sleeping in with his wife on this weekend .

However, as he hugged tighter, he noticed something wrong . He lazily opened his eyes . It was a pillow!

"Sweetheart?" He called out as he got up from bed . He walked for a while until he heard the shower . In his shamelessness, he tried to open the door .

At the other side, Aoi Xiu snickered as she heard the door was being opened in vain . She was putting her clothes on .

"What are you doing?" She glared at her husband who was trying to sneak a peek from the frosted gla.s.s door .

"Oh . . . good morning, Sweetheart! Why did you not wake me up when you took a shower?" His shamelessness was over-the-top .

Aoi Xiu became a cold yuki-onna* on hearing his words . "You perverted old man! Why are you even still here?! Haven't you had enough entertainment already?!" She pushed him back, out and back into the bedroom .

"But Sweetheart, I . . . " He was not able to finish his words as he was shoved towards the closet .

"Pack your bags . " she ordered .

Before words could come out of his mouth, she interrupted him .

"Quit being useless here and help our son run the company! Due to your shamelessness, the daughter whom I miss so much had an excuse to live in her condo unit!"

"But you said you forgive me . . . " he was pouting like a kid .

"It does not excuse you for slacking off! Pack your bags!"

She ordered him, but she actually took his suitcase and started packing his things .
