Chapter 1 Did You Not Really Love Me?
- Outside the window muffled thunder rolled and heavy rain poured down.
- The atmosphere in the room is ambiguous and depressing.
- Yanis Thompson looked at the man in front of her, his voice a little husky, "......Zane ......"
- The man's voice was clear and cold as he responded, "Hmm?"
- In this situation, the air is hot and Yanis can't help but frown at the peak of her brow.
- "Did you ...... really never love me?"
- The moment she asked this question, the man's deep eyes' fell on her scarlet face, "Yanis , don't you think it's a spoilsport to ask such nonsense at such a time?"
- Before Yanis had a chance to speak, the man had already gotten up and left.
- He stood in the doorway, looking at her somewhat condescendingly, "I was thinking that on our last night, we could live together in peace, but it seems you don't need to."
- Such harsh words are like a pot of cold water, poured on Yanis head.
- Just now the scorching heat instantly dissipated, the rest is only a bone-chilling coolness.
- Zane Lawrence bent down to pick up the clothes he had just casually tossed aside before looking at her again, "In that case, I'll leave you to it, and I'll have Albi prepare the documents for you to sign tomorrow."
- Clean and crisp, not even giving her a chance to say a second word tonight.
- The heavy door slammed shut, as if pushing her into a deep, bottomless abyss.
- Sure enough, what is not hers, will never be hers ......
- When she could marry Zane is also because his first love Neve Bennett in the road to the shooting because of the slippery road, the car broke the railing, tumbled into the deepest sea of Manches City,
- because the Bennett sent abroad closed treatment for injuries too serious.
- The Lawrence family didn't like Neve either, so after Neve left, the Lawrence family kept setting up blind dates for Zane, and in order to avoid the family's blind dates, Zane approached her.
- She and Zane are junior high school classmates, relationship can not say good, barely better than others.
- She loved Zane , from middle school to high school, from high school to college, and then into society, she dreamed of marrying him and becoming his wife.
- So when Zane approached her, she didn't even hesitate to say yes.
- Even though she knows that Zane has someone in his heart, she knows that people who live in the heart are not so easy to forget.
- But she still had a lonely heart and chose to marry him.
- Because of the disparity between the Thompson family and the Lawrence family, the Thompson family knew that the Lawrence family was in deep trouble and did not agree with Yanis' decision.
- But at that time, Yanis abandoned her family and everything that she had, even to the point of cutting ties with the Thompson family to marry Zane.
- From ten fingers do not touch the spring water of the young lady, became a laundry and cooking,
- taking care of her husband's wise wife.
- She thought that as long as she tried, as long as she was single-mindedly good to Zane, one day he would see her goodness and he would fall in love with her ......
- Unfortunately, in the past five years, she has not made him fall for her, let alone fall in love with her.
- Now ...... that person is back and it's time for her to step aside.
- And these five years of Mrs. Lawrence, she has done enough ......
- It rained outside all night long.
- It was nearing dawn that it stopped.
- Yanis had a sleepless night last night, her eyes were slightly swollen, and the ends of her eyes were still red, but not when she was in love, but a red with blood.
- The phone on the bedside table rang abruptly.
- The incoming display is: Albi.
- Zane's all-around assistant.
- Yanis reached for the hand and answered the phone, "Hello?"
- It was only when he opened his mouth that Yanis realized how hoarse his voice had become.
- It also seemed to scare Albi on the other side of the phone.
- But there was only a few seconds of silence before Albi's voice came through, still in that businesslike tone, "Ma'am, are you free in the morning?"
- Yanis got up and sat up, staring somewhere away for a moment, roughly three or four seconds,
- and then responded, "Yes."
- After that, Yanis paused and asked, "Zane asked you to find me, right?"
- Albi there responded, "Yes."
- Yanis knew exactly what Albi wanted to say when she called.
- She pestered him for five years, humbled to the dust, but still failed to get more than a glance at her.
- In that case, it would be better to be dashing.
- Yanis lifted the covers and got out of bed, whispering, "Albi, please tell Zane that I'll be waiting for him at the coffee shop across from the Lawrence Group in an hour."
- Albi hesitated for a moment and answered, "Yes, I'll pass on to Mr. Lawrence."
- Yanis hung up the phone without saying anything else.
- ......
- An hour later, Yanis pulled up in front of the cafe across from the Lawrence Group.
- I was about to turn off the engine and get out of the car when my cell phone, which had been set aside, rang at this time.
- The call came from her good friend Bonnie Cooke.
- "Yanis , don't forget about the award ceremony today."
- Yanis responded, "I haven't forgotten."
- "What's wrong with your voice? Catching a cold?" Bonnie's concerned voice came through.
- Yanis cleared his throat, "I drank too much cold last night, and with the air conditioning, my throat is not too comfortable."
- "Zane doesn't care about you either?"
- "He's busy."
- Bonnie grunted softly, "You'll be spoiled."
- Yanis raised his hand to put out the fire, "You ......"
- Yanis didn't finish the rest of her sentence, looking at the two people coming out of the sweet store across the street, Yanis felt her eyes start to hurt again.
- Hot and sore.
- "What's wrong with me?" Bonnie's voice came over the phone.
- Yanis said, "It's okay, I have some things to do here, that's all."
- "Don't forget the awards ceremony." Bonnie reminded again.
- Yanis didn't answer and just hung up the phone.
- Handsome men and women, standing together is a beautiful scenery.
- Yanis watched that scene, some self-deprecating raised his lips, where did she get the courage to expect to replace Neve's place in Zane's heart in the first place.
- When Zane looked over, Yanis didn't avoid it and pushed the door open and got out of the car.
- Yanis graciously walked up to the two men, looked at Zane and asked, "I'll leave now if I'm not available, and make another appointment?"
- Zane looked to Yanis , "No."
- After saying that, he looked sideways at the person beside him and said in a soft voice, "I'll walk you to the car first, I have something to take care of."
- Neve looked over at Yanis with a smile on her face, "This is Miss Thompson, right?"
- Hearing Neve's words, Yanis offered her hand, "Miss Bennett."
- As Neve reached out to shake hands with Yanis, Zane suddenly reached out and grabbed Neve's wrist, "It's windy out there, you go to the car first."
- Neve smiled sweetly, "Zane, I'm not that delicate."
- Zane lifted his hand and gathered Neve's clothes, "My heart hurts, I'll walk you to the car first.
