Chapter 49 Cheating
Chapter 49 Cheating
*FLASHBACK*
Feng Mei sat before the window watching as the rain outside grows. It's was already late but Wang Lu wasn't back yet. She was beginning to get worried. Hearing the door open, Feng Mei ran to the entrance of the room.
"Wang Lu?" Feng Mei called out, a hint of a smile in her tone. She stopped midway when she saw Wang Lu's eyes which were gleaming with anger.
"What happened?" She asked, her voice laced with worry and curiosity. Wang Lu ignored her question and stared at her intensely as if he was examining her.
"How could you? Was my love not enough?" Wang Lu asked coldly, a murderous aura surrounding him.
Feng Mei felt her stomach clenched and her head spun from fear and confusion.
'Did he find out?' Seeing the guilt and fear which flashed in her eyes. Wang Lu looked away as if the mere sight of her will stain his eyes.
"What are you talking about?" She choked out as her voice breaking
She had visited his father in the hospital today, she wanted to know why the father and son duo wasn't talking to each other. The man had just a few months to live and Feng Mei wanted to make sure Wang Lu talks to him before he dies. She didn't think he would find out about her visiting him since he forbid her not to talk to his father.
"Stop pretending!" Wang Lu let out a groan of frustration.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to-"
"Cheat on me?" Wang Lu interjected her coldly. Feng Mei gasped a looked at him in disbelief. 'Cheat on him?'
"Wait, what?" Wang Lu walked closer to her, with his face inches away from her,
"My mother was right, you're nothing but a gold digger!" He said as he laughed savagely in her face.
Tears prick at the back of Feng Mei's eyes.
"I don't know what you're talking about." Wang Lu let out a laugh.
"Of course, you're going to pretend. Do I look like a fool to you?"
Wang Lu said as he loosened his tie and ran a hand through his disheveled hair.
"Tell me, was it worth it?" I gave you everything but you, ungrateful slut, you dare betrayed me!."Feng Mei held her chest, as his words stabbed her more and more to her heart. The man who held her this morning and told her he loved her was calling her a slut. His face filled with sheer disgust.
"Wang Lu, what are you talking about? I love you, I would never cheat on you! Trust me please."
"Trust you? After what you have done?" Feng Mei didn't what she has done for him to accuse her of cheating on him. She would never cheat on him, he is all she has left now in this city. Her parents have died and her only friend was still in a coma. She doesn't know if she would even make it."
Feng Mei looked at him to search in his eyes if he was joking but all she found was hate and disgust.
"Wang Lu-" She called him.
The sound of something slamming on her face interrupted her. Yan Mei picked up the folder and saw it was divorce papers.
"You better sign that and don't think I will give you anything."
Feng Mei wiped her tears, "How can you say that I don't even know why-" She trailed off, her voice trembled as she forced down the bile in throat.
"Shut up! I don't want to listen to your voice. I hate the day I met you, Feng Mei, You disgust me!."
Feng Mei closed her eyes in pain, today was supposed to be her happiest day but it turned out to be the worst day for her. For this man, she lost so much but now he was ruthlessly calling her names and accusing her of cheating without giving her the chance to explain herself. Is his love for her, that shallow?'
Feng Mei laughed bitterly as she stared at the man who promised to be there for her for better or worse. How ironic.
"Please trust me, calm down let's talk." Feng Mei pleaded.
Wang Lu shuddered in anger when he heard her. 'Trust her? 'How can he trust her after what he saw and heard. He never knew women can be so ruthless!
Her mocking voice still rang in his ears. His heart hurt a lot, he really gave this woman everything but she betrayed him. Tears welled in his eyes but he kept his face blank. There is no way he would give her the satisfaction of seeing him cry over her betrayal. The love he felt for her was now replaced by endlessly hate and disgust.
Feng Mei looked at the folder in her hands and felt helpless. She was too shocked to react to what was happening. Never in a million did she think would be getting divorced at the age of twenty-one.
"Wang Lu, are you sure? Let's talk, please. I'm pre-"
"Don't waste my time, sign it." Wang Lu said coldly, staring at her. Yan Mei held back her tears, she saw no emotion in his eyes. She felt her heartbreaking.
Feng Mei wiped away her tears and signed the divorce papers. She knows once Wang Lu makes up his mind no one can change it. After she finished signing, he took the folder from her hands and scanned through. Feng Mei looked away from him, not wanting him to see the pain in her eyes.
After he finished looking through the divorce papers he looked up at her, "Now leave my house."
In a flash he held her arms and dragged her out of the room, the servants looked at their master who was ruthlessly dragging Feng Mei out and began to whisper. They have all seen how much their master loves and pampers her, so why was he dragging her out of the house.
"Please, Wang Lu, you can't do this, I have to tell you something." He chuckled darkly
"I don't care what you have to see, get out of my life now. Don't you get it? I hate you and every second I had spent with you!." He dropped her in the grass in front of the house as the rain hit her face. He turned around without sparing her a glance and began to walk away.
"Wang Lu, wait!" She shouted at him. Wang Lu stopped and turned to look at her, he doesn't know why he turned but when he did and saw her sitting on the grass with a disheveled look, a surge of pain overwhelmed him.
"What?" He asked, his voice slightly softened.
Feng Mei removed the bracelet he had given her on their second anniversary and threw it at him.
"You will regret this, Wang Lu!" He chuckled when he heard her, ignoring her, he turned around as he walked back to the door, the sound of the door closing crushed her heart into two.
Her hands clutch her stomach as she wept in sorrow. What did she do wrong to deserve this? She has shown nothing but loyalty to this man, She didn't even have male friends due to how possessive he was. But now, he is accusing of cheating without giving her the chance to explain. Everybody keeps leaving her. Was she a bad omen? Feng Mei's mind was overwhelmed.
She realized she has nowhere to go. She can't go to her father because they had fought when she told him she was going to marry Wang Lu. Will he tell her, he told her so?
