However, despite the pricking pain in my throat, I eventually failed to vomit the aborticide up.
I collapsed by the wall in complete despair.
For the first time in my life, I was so desperate to take my own life.
Leaning against the wall, I staggered to my feet, aching all over. I was ready for death, but I was simply too feeble to hit the wall hard.
Then I tried to bite my tongue off to end my life but failed again due to my lack of strength.
I should felicitate upon my failure to commit suicide.
For what I could feel next was that my whole body and soul were almost burnt out with frenzied hatred.
I hated Zhao and Xiao Yue, but I hated Quan Shaoze even more!
If it weren’t for Quan Shaoze, I wouldn’t have been reduced to this.
If he hadn’t gotten me pregnant, I wouldn’t have been in such a desperate struggle over losing the baby.
At this point, I suddenly recalled Zhao Dong and Xiao Yue’s plot.
No! I can’t die like this! I have to leave!
Maybe it was the overwhelming hatred that kept me going. The next day, pulling myself together, I called Zhao Dong into my room while Xiao Yue was out shopping.
“Does this mean that you agree?” Zhao Dong was pleased. He had no idea what Xiao Yue had done to me and simply thought that I had finally come around.
I forced a smile. But instead of responding, I shifted the conversation. “Darling, can you peel an apple for me for one last time?”
Though I called him affectionately, I didn’t have any feelings left for him, except for endless hatred.
Hearing my words, Zhao Dong remained silent for a long time with a complicated expression on his face.
I thought he should be able to figure out that I had made a concession.
And that was why I was a little taken aback by his hesitation.
“Okay!” After a good while, Zhao Dong finally granted my request.
At this moment, I suddenly heard a string of footsteps. I knew Xiao Yue was back. When she was approaching, I pretended to be weak and threw myself into Zhao Dong’s arms, which made him hold me instinctively.
The moment Xiao Yue came in, she happened to see this scene.
“I’m gonna buy some fruit for you now,” After helping me up, Zhao Dong left with a meaningful look.
I heaved a sigh of relief. When I turned around, I felt my eyelids were so heavy that I could hardly open my eyes.
“You bitch! You just lost your baby, but you already can’t wait to seduce Ah Dong!” As I had expected, after Zhao Dong left, Xiao Yue immediately rushed into the room. She pulled me over and slapped me in the face viciously.
Seeing that she had taken the bait, I managed to get myself together again. “After all, we’ve been married for five years, so it’s impossible for us to cut ties at once. He was concerned about my declining health , so he went out to buy some fruit for me.”
Xiao Yue’s eyes turned bloodshot at my words and once again, I saw her face twist with jealousy and anger.
“Stop flattering yourself! How could Ah Dong buy fruit for you?” She grabbed me by the collar and roared in rage.
I put on a pleasant smile and told her that she would see it for herself later. Then I sat down on the bed.
Distracted by my words, Xiao Yue wasn’t in the mood to be violent to me anymore. Instead, she just walked out of the room and hid in a corner, waiting to verify what I had said.
After a while, Zhao Dong came back with a bag of fruit in his hand. Without a word, he began to peel an apple for me.
At the sight of this, Xiao Yue thought Zhao Dong still had feelings for me, so she stormed in and rushed towards us.
“Allow me, or it will cause Xiao Yue’s misunderstanding,” I smiled at Zhao Dong and said as if it was for his sake.
With that, I took the parer and that half-peeled apple from his hands.
However, it failed to calm Xiao Yue down.
She grabbed Zhao Dong by the collar and roared angrily, “You still have feelings for her, don’t you?”
