Lu Corporation
On the other hand, Lu Jian was surprised to know that his wife wanted to work and earn some money.
He has ordered his men to follow her secretly and inform him about her whereabouts. This news was quite shocking.
It feels like the sun is rising from the west now these days in his life or rather in his wife's life.
Interesting, after she woke up from her coma she has changed into a completely another person.
The girl he knew was lazy so the sudden change in her was hard to digest even for him.
His wife knew one thing and that was to follow him like a dog. She was clingy and never respected herself.
There was nothing else in her life other than him.
Yesterday, when she ripped the divorce papers; he was astonished for a moment. He was aware that she never wanted to divorce him but never would she dare to show her feisty side in front of him.
She was completely indifferent to him. Like he was an irritating fly who was buzzing around her and disturbing her peace of mind.
It was refreshing but at the same time annoying.
There was no love in her eyes. He didn't know why but he didn't like that. Moreover, he was not used to her non-caring nature.
He was never interested in relationships before and the goal in his life has been always reaching the top of the world. To become the ultimate king in this world.
Marriage was never in his list. It was something meant to continue his lineage and nothing more.
So when he agreed for this marriage, he didn't think anything else other than to follow his grandfather's wish. He was close to his grandpa. Since his grandpa wanted him to marry Zhen Xiu, he did without creating a fuss.
His wife was a shameless person and it was one of the reasons he couldn't accept her even after marrying her for a one long year.
He was not the one that wanted to marry her.
He didn't cheat in their marriage even after not liking her.
Then why was he being accused of being shameless?
He knew she loved him wholeheartedly that's why he tolerated her in their marriage and his life.
No one liked her and didn't care about her so he decided to end her sufferings by divorcing her and giving her huge alimony to live her life happily.
She didn't want a divorce but he couldn't see the love in her eyes.
Last night her eyes were sharp and clear, there were no other feelings in them. It was like she was talking to a stranger and not her husband.
"Hey bro? What are you thinking about so hard?" asked Jiang Wui breaking his thoughts.
"Nothing." Lu Jian answered.
Jiang Wui had an amused expression on his face.
"What?" Lu Jian asked his brother.
"You are thinking about Zhen Xiu. I can totally see this." Jiang Wui laughed out loud while mentioning his wife's name "She is the only one who can make you like this. I suppose you met the new side of her."
"You were correct. There is something different about her. " He too confirmed his thoughts.
Yesterday when he was telling him about her, he didn't think too much but now it feels weird that the girl they think is not important has occupied their mind for too long. They could only think about her now.
"I think she is over you. She has become sassy. Actually, I liked her when she shouted, 'Who are you, my husband?' It was so hot." Jiang Wui smirked.
Lu Jian didn't like the way Jiang Wui was commenting on his wife. He threw a file on his face and reprimanded him, "She is still my wife."
"What? She is still your wife." Jiang Wui asked him surprised. Wasn't he going to make her sign those papers? What happened yesterday? He missed all the juicy scenes in the house.
Shit!
"Yes. She didn't sign the papers." He told Jiang Wui completely hiding the entire scene that actually happened. It was not good to soil his own reputation.
"Hats off to her man. Your charm is not up to the mark Jian." Jiang Wui guffawed loud.
These words directly reached his heart. Although he didn't want to accept it; after watching her sad smile and tears flowing from her eyes; he was guilty. It was like he was suffering from heart disease. The pain that came after watching that sad look in his eyes was something he has never experienced in his life.
He decided to visit the hospital. Lately, business stress has given him serious heart trouble. He should really go and treat his heart.
"Shut up! Mind your own work and send me the new merger reports." He asked him irritated. Jiang Wui didn't heed his words and instead asked Shen Rui to bring the files.
Lu Jian hissed. He clearly knows how She is as a person but still, because of their families, he has to do this.
"I will cut your 3 months paycheck." He reminded him that here in Lu Corporation, he was the boss.
"I don't mind. I am a bachelor anyway. I will stay with you after all you are my only family. So I don't need this petty materialistic money." He innocently played cool. Like he was a saint, separate from everything but in reality, he was a hungry wolf waiting for gossip.
What was wrong with the people these days?
Everyone was hell-bent on defying him.
