I Hate You, Devil! Chapter 286 - Final Arc (Part IV)

Chapter 286 - Final Arc (Part IV)

As Zaki expected, Yu Chen creased his brows and Zaki threw his head back in frustration and groaned loudly, fully expressing his agitation.

"Goodness, Chen. You really need to have a fight with her." He groaned and then Zaki rose from the couch. "Alright, the next time sis-in-law comes home, make sure to talk to her and tell her the truth. That you don't like her always staying out almost every night and that you are not fine at all about her focusing too much on her career she almost doesn't have time to even come home for a meal and shower, much less stay at home with you."

When Zaki was gone, Yu Chen stood by the window and stared out stonily into the darkness. Anyone looking on would not know he was contemplating relations.h.i.+p issues rather than business problems.

Zaki was right. He was not fine at all. And as days pa.s.sed by, he was growing more uneasy and scared. He was doing his best to be the perfect man for her. He did not want to restrict her and make her feel as though she was being controlled or anything like that. Because he knew Xiaolei always wanted to be free. She is a strong and an independent woman after all. But it was getting harder for him to just follow along with all her decisions without having any say in it.

He wanted her time. He wanted to be with her longer, not just for a few hours. He cherished each and every moment that they spent together. If he could, he would want to even tie her down to him for one whole week. He had always, always been so down every time she leaves. And he could not help but feel that he was the only one that was being too needy in their relations.h.i.+p. Could it be that she meant more to him than he meant to her? There was a sudden thought that came zipping into his mind that perhaps she did not love him as much as he thought. And that just chilled his already cold heart.

Somehow, what Zaki said made him realize he had done nothing but hold back and shut his mouth whenever she was with him. All he did when they were together was to try his best to please her. He would never regret what he did as he always loved to make her happy and would never make her sad or cry but… lately, he was becoming less and less happy. His fear and worry were making his misery even more p.r.o.nounced when she was not around.

Staring into the dark night, Yu Chen allowed his eyes to drift close and let out a deep and tired sounding sigh. When he finally opened his eyes, he looked as though he had finally decided on something, and his shoulders relaxed a bit.

However, his phone vibrated right then and when he checked the message, his face turned darker than the night itself.

An intense anger flashed across Yu Chen's dark eyes as he stared at the picture that was forwarded to him by an unknown sender. He could not recognise the number as well. However, that was not the case for the picture he was looking at. The figures in it were clearly recognisable to him.

It was a picture taken of Xiaolei and Yun Jinhan talking and standing very close together. He did not know on what grounds did they need to stand that close to each other. Though he believed in Xiaolei, seeing a picture like this still triggered sparks that raged into an inferno within him.

Yu Chen had clenched his phone so hard he heard cracking noises coming from it.

Immediately, he punched in a number aggressively and in a very short while, Yu Chen and his men were headed out of Scarlet Hill in an all-black, low profile luxury car.

After a long time, it seemed as though the devil in him had been reawakened. Yu Chen's anger was so intense his men could not help but feel the chills as his fury radiated out in waves throughout the vehicle. These were chills they have not felt for a very long time. Yu Chen had been quite docile for the past two years that they had conveniently forgotten that he was once a man dubbed as the devil himself.

When the car came to a gentle stop, Yu Chen flung the door open and immediately strode out and rushed into the mansion where the party Xiaolei had mentioned she would be attending was. He remembered that Xiaolei had asked him previously if he was fine with her attending parties without him. At that time, he had answered yes even though deep down, he did not actually want her to go at all. He had wanted to tell her that she can go, but she should have asked him first if he could accompany her as her date. If she had done so, Yu Chen was certain he would definitely have gone along willingly and escorted her to whatever party it was or wherever she had wanted to go. But he ended up not saying anything at all and just nodded his agreement to her question.

Now that this had happened, and he could hardly stop himself from bursting out of control. It would be considered lucky for Yun Jinhan if Yu Chen did not march right up to him and strangled him to death on the spot.

By the time he was inside where the party was most happening, Yu Chen immediately looked around for his wife. The receptionist had to let him in despite his name not being in the list of invited guests, all because he was the Yu Chen. For him to be attending was an honour for the host rather than the other way around.

He was led in by a slightly panicky attendant to where Xiaolei was and the moment Yu Chen spotted his wife, his eyes darkened and dilated at the sight of Yun Jinhan bending over her as though he was intending to give her a kiss.
