Hhhh

Leah Shen returns. The bitch finally back in the Emperor city. Debra Lin was furious with the news of Leah Shen homecoming. "Why can you just stay in your turtle shell, Leah Shen?!!! Don't blame me for taking action on you if you try to take Nicolas away from me!!!".

She grappled the nearest antique vase in her room and threw it across the wall in the corner next by the door.

' Smash. Smash!'

At that moment, the door was opened and a delicate beautiful lady was entering the spacious bedroom with a frown that barely noticeable.

"Debra? Something wrong?!".

"M-Mother in law!". Debra Lin hurried to hug Nicolas's mother that had been staying with them since last month after her old husband died from a tragic accident.

"What's going on? You will marry my son in one month and you are not happy still?". After using a lot of strategies to manipulate her son, he finally agreed to marry his fiance.

"The bitch is back! The daughter of your enemy! She is in town right now!".

Nothing changes on Sherly Tang's facial expression due to her numerous plastic surgeries to look young and beautiful, her face was numbed and paralyzed from any expression of emotions besides a little scowl that almost unnoticeable.

"She is merely a pawn for our revenge. However, this pawn, we didn't need her anymore. But if she is in the way of your upcoming wedding, I will deal with her the hard way!", Sherly Tang was gritting her teeth while fisting her hand strongly. 'Ouch', she grunted when her sharp nails drew blood in the middle of her palm.

"Mother in law!". Debra Lin right away was calling their personal residence doctor to take care of her mother in law. Her mother in law heath was fragile where any little wound could cause her to faint. Right after she put down the phone, Sherly Tang was lying motionless on the marble floor. Definitely just from losing a little bit amount of blood from her palm. This disease was famous among the wealthy lady in the Modern country, especially ones who had undergone many plastic surgeries.

A shadowy figure was sitting by the corner of the spacious bed while holding a bottle of hard liquor on his hand and gulping it down once every minute like water.

A Filial son...

But to be one, he was so unhappy with his life...

His mother had forced him with her life again, to marry Debra Lin.

What can he do? He is merely trying his best to be filial to his mother. But he was dying inside. Unable to control his own life, in the end, he felt like a dog in a leash.

In one month, he would marry her, but he had a back-up plan. No one knew that he was already married, and he won't divorce his beloved wife even threatened under the gun.

Even though he didn't like to be cunning, to escape his gloomy fate, he could only improvised with the unorthodox plan for the upcoming wedding.

Leah Shen had been in town for a month and she never visits him or accidentally met him. In the recent month, he had been going to a lot of banquets for the wealthiest and noble families, nonetheless, his runaway wife never attended any of the banquets where she was invited personally with his influence, instead, only her sister and brother joined the parties in her name.

Nicolas Tang was gulping down the alcohol in front of him like water, tonight, he almost finished one bottle of the hard liquor. It's very shameful to run from the reality of life by drinking into a stupor to forget the unbearable pain. But at this moment, he was willing to be a weak man, and maybe tomorrow he could be stronger to fight the whole world and perhaps change his destiny to be with the woman he loved.

Right at the moment, a familiar silhouette entered his bedroom from the open window. Nicolas Tang had intentionally opened the window widely ever since he heard that his wife was back in town. It's definitely her unless he was hallucinating under the influence of alcohol.

"L-Leahhhh...". He was slurring the sweet name of her while wincing his eyes to focus on the sexy figure in front of him.

"Drunkard scoundrel!!! Hisss, I came here for business! I heard of your upcoming wedding and personally like to congrats you and bring a divorce paper to free you from our marriage shackle!"

Casually she threw the divorce paper in front of him, and before he could reject her request, she left while saying," Goodbye!!".

Weak with influence, he thought he was hallucinating but the divorce paper in front of him is for real. She was here, but now she was gone. She wanted a divorce.

But...

No one could force him to divorce her...

Their marriage is the only great thing in his life.

Is the only thing he did for himself.

It's his redemption and liberation.

Even though it's only a one-sided love because she hated him now, he had enough love for both of them.

The plan must go on...

He didn't care if heaven forbid.

From now on, his destiny is in his own hands.

With that thought, he fell into a deep sleep.

Getting out from the flying pod that was given to her by her brother, Leah Shen felt something was bothering her to the point of her blowing like a kettle. When she saw her soon to be ex was drinking his life away, she was in dilemma. She wanted to slap him and hug him at the same time. Gnawing at her teeth to strengthen her will power, she left him. At that moment, she felt a great storm engulfed deep within her. Until now, she was grieving for the man she once loved. Guilty feeling for not letting him know of Lei-Lei existence and annoyance that she had asked for a divorce to free him from his obligation upon hearing of his upcoming wedding.

You can't force love...

She had forced him to marry her...

He was obligated to marry her for responsibility and eventually for revenge...

It was not his fault to be born as her foe...

Revenge is just seven letters that decide the seven fates in human existence: Love, power, wealth, wisdom, retribution, life, and death. They loved because they hated. While all the power, wealth, and wisdom is the measuring attires to conclude retribution, life, and death. All of this nonsense in her head right now, she learned by reading many wisdom books to gain more confidence back of the new her. But one look of her weakling husband and she was melting like a candle to be his one and only confidant and lover again. I'm definitely sick from this one-sided love. Forget Nicolas Tang, forget revenge, forget love, be the strong 'you', Leah Shen!

"Hhhhh! Tomorrow is another day! My pain will lessen by the end of the day and myself is stronger than ever. Nicolas Tang, I hope you live your life without any waste! Whatever bothered you at this moment, I wish you could get back up and be strong! Someday I will let you know of Lei-Lei but now is not the time. Goodbye, Nicolas Tang! From now on, our life is no longer as one!", chirping to herself, Leah Shen felt something big was missing in her life. But she knew that time would eventually heal her lovesickness...

Time to forgive and forget...

Have a good life, Nicolas Tang.

I wish you could abandon revenge just like I did.

I wish our divorce will cheer you up!!!

From now on, we will be a stranger!

Cheers for that!!
