Chapter 9 Unfair disputes

  Returning to Ye\'s house, I locked myself up. With my mother gone and a dad disowning me as well as my husband having his heart by himself. There seemed to be nothing in this world that belonged to me.

  Until Lester Ye opened the door and appeared in front of me with the food.

  I looked at him mockingly with a crazy smile and tears come flowing again.

  I found myself really useless. After the incident, I would only cry. I am afraid that my tears are the least valuable thing in his heart and the effect of it is what he wants the most.

  \"Eat.\"

  He looked at me with deep eyes as he brought in the food.

  I don\'t understand why he still have the guts to face me so calmly after doing this kind of thing. I suddenly doubted whether the Lester Ye in my mind was just an illusion.

  The boy who was able to save me during the time of my desperation, was it really him?

  As he came closer, I suddenly took a chance to knocked the bowls and chopsticks off from his hands, and the food was scattered all over the place.

  He picked up the bowl in silence then cleaned up the food on the floor piece by piece.

  He cleaned up very carefully and the floor was wiped clean with a rag. I just looked at him in silence without any kind of feeling.

  “You are pregnant and anemic so skipping meals will not be good for your health.” He stared at me with his dark eyes that were clean and pure without the disgust and contempt of the past.

  \"Didn\'t you always want me to die? My mother and I are both dead. No one can hinder you, Corrina Mu and her mother.\"

  I have been thinking why so many people are unable to commit suicide. There goes a saying that it is better to die than to live unhappily. Is there really no hope if one keeps on living with a heavy heart? With death one can achieve peace and rest completely.

  But now, I understand that when the heart gets exhausted, being alive is equivalent to being dead.

  “Let’s go on with our lives. We are even now…what just happened sound fair to me. I will help you with your case so you will be free.” Lester Ye slowly spoke.

  Had my mother been still alive when he said this, she would have been so grateful to him. But now...it’s too late for that. Have I gained something after what happened?

  \"What an injustice! My mother is dead and Corrina Mu is alive…\" staring at him closely without a sign of fear.

  A person who is no longer afraid of death has nothing to fear.

  \"Corrina Mu was gang-raped. She was able survive because she was rescued but lost her memory.\"

  Hearing those words, I sneered, \"So? What does this have to do with me?\"

  My words finally angered Lester Ye.

  He held back his anger and looked at me, \"You killed her twice but saved her life with your blood.\"

  I hated him so much but I am still able to look at him with a smile, \"You know what…I put a curse on you…you will never be happy for the rest of your life...you can never get away with what you did.”

  Lester Ye stared at me but didn’t say a word. He stood up and left.

  The thought of him not showing up came up to my mind but after a few days he returned with a new meal.

  \"I know you hate me but you have to take your food. Tomorrow you are going to the funeral.\"

  When I heard the last sentence, I picked up the food and started to eat. Perhaps it was because of my mood. The food did not really taste good but just the same I took some of it.

  The next morning he knocked at my door. He didn’t go out that day.

  He was wearing a black suit and handed me a black cotton dress. Looking at the mirror, the black clothes made my face white emphasizing the dark circles under my eyes and my disheveled hair made me look haggard.

  \"Let\'s go!\" He demanded, as soon as I was done. I nodded and followed him silently.

  That night, many things came to my mind but I still could not think of a way to revenge Lester Ye. But now that Corrina Mu is back, he can’t just wait to divorce me and formally settle with her. But how can I just let her do what she wants.

  As long as I am alive, Corrina Mu will never have the chance of becoming Mrs. Ye and he can only consider this woman he loves most as a shameless lover.

  Thinking of revenge for now is quite impossible. It may hurt them, yes, but my priority now should be how to save myself in the first place.

  But with my situation now it would be difficult to fight with them because I still have to protect the child inside me.

  I consider myself a hunter who quietly waits for an opportunity waiting for the right time so I can deliver a fatal blow to them.
