Hello, Mr Li Chapter 224 - Guilt

Minde's inquisitiveness led him to follow Eva and her 'girlfriend' to an hotel. 

He knew it! He knew his instincts were never wrong. This women really had something going on with each other. 

He felt like ripping the other woman's hair from her head. Then maybe she would obviously look like a man to Eva. 

Minde's mobile phone had been vibrating inside his pocket but he didn't care to check who was calling. His entire gaze was focused on the two women whose hands were draped on each other's shoulder's as they strolled into a small hotel. 

He stopped in front of the room they had both entered a minute ago. 

"Room 69... How erotic!" He smirked before pressing his ear to the door in case he would hear any sound. 

Minde's heart stopped when he heard the tiny voice he believed belonged to the other woman. Since he had been tailing them from afar, he hadn't heard their voices or what they were saying to each other.

"Your b.o.o.bs has gotten bigger than the last time I remember. What's the secret?" 

Minde heard Eva laugh to the other girl's words.

He tried to imagine her cute innocent face as she laughed. Too bad he couldn't imagine it. 

She was always stone cold to him but was happily laughing with another woman. 

"Oh...this feels nice. Being with you like this. How long has it been? I must confess I missed you dearly"

Minde heard Eva speak this time, followed by a loud smack as if someone was kissing another. 

He could do nothing but gasp and open wide his mouth as he tried to imagine what was going on in there.

"Alright. There's no time to waste. I have to return to work as soon as possible. Let's get to business." Eva's serious voice rang out.

Inside the room, Eva looked at the clothes her friend's mother had sent her. Emma's mother was a seamstress. Most of the clothes Eva wore were made by her and they were really cla.s.sy. 

Emma and her had been friends right from when they were in highschool. They had been BFFs before Eva and Emma's twin brother, Pascal began to like each other. Emma had naturally played cupid and s.h.i.+pped them together which eventually led to a happy life life for the both of them until three years ago.

Pascal died in a car crash. 

Eva had been in the car also and she beloved the accident had been her fault. She had distracted him while he was driving.

And like the wonderful boyfriend he was, he had used his body to s.h.i.+eld her which caused him to have a greater impact and died on the spot.

She had been unconscious for days but the moment she woke up, she heard the heart wrenching news that her boyfriend was dead. 

Out of guilt, she had taken up the family's responsibility from where Pascal left off.

When Pascal was alive then, he had taken responsibility for their father's problems. 

All effort of her mother to successfully get him to sign the divorce papers were futile.

Unlike their mother who always cared for them, their father on the other hand was not just a problem to the family, he was a problem to the entire society.

A chronic gambler who incured debt with his wife's land and house as collateral.

No matter what, they had to pay off his debts before they took away their mother's only land and their apartment which he had used as a collateral. 

Pascal had been taking responsibility for it until the day he died. 

Their father could not make the payments and worse of all, he also died a year ago, leaving his debts behind for Emma and her mother. 

Since then, Eva had been helping out with it. She beloved Pascal would have continued to do it if he was alive.

Even though Emma and her mother refused, Eva refused and decided to take up responsibility. Thankfully, she had a good job and her family was well-off.

It was the fourth year now but for some reason, she was not actually feeling relieved about it ending in a couple of months. She felt she hadn't done enough to pay for what she did to their son.

"Alright. It looks good on you. Take it off and put these on. I'll take a few photos of you" Emma said before handing her a short black gown for her to wear. 

Emma's mother always demanded for pictures of the clothes on Eva's body to be sure it fit her properly.

Eva knew Emma was going to take some photos of her. It was the reason she wore make-up

Eva didn't want the woman to call and ask why she looked pale or why she wasn't wearing any make-up since she always nagged her. 

"Wow. You look stunning. You should always look like this." Emma complimented after Eva put on the black gown. 

"Come on. Give me a s.e.xy pose. Let me take some nice shots" 

Minde gasped when he heard their conversation. "What? Is she taking a photo of her naked or did she give her a seductive outfit to wear?"

Take off your clothes? A s.e.xy pose? Unbelievable! 

He gulped down saliva as he felt his cheeks begin to heat up. 

"What are you doing?" A female voice asked from behind him.

It suddenly registered to him that he looked like a pervert. 

He hid his face from the staff who had asked him and began to run out. 

The lady didn't give up and chased him with all her might, calling the security as she ran after him.

"I asked you that night whether you knew any Jianjun w.a.n.g. You told me you didn't."

Changyu sighed. She didn't know how to answer this girl. At that time, she had denied it and she hadn't felt bad about it because they had rejected her first. But now, she had realised that her parents had a hand in her family's misfortune. 

She could have easily denied it if she hadn't collapsed in front of their apartment that day.

But now, what could she possibly say to deny it? 

"I knew your entire family. I worked with them years ago."

Sara smiled in relief when Changyu didn't deny. She was already tired of everyone neglecting her and ignoring her questions. 

"You knew my mother also right?" 

It had been Sara's goal at first. She wanted to know about Helene and her grandparents. She wanted to know about her father's past. Wanted to know why he was always sad. She believe it had something to do with his past and she was very curious about it. 

But now, there was something else she was curious about— Changyu's involvement with her entire family. 

She also wanted to know why they were hiding everything from her. 

"Your father...." Changyu threw her face to the side so Sara wouldn't see her face. She was very sure her heartbreak would show on her face.

"....I loved him" Changyu admitted.
