Secret Wife Is A Crazy Beast - Chapter 161
As soon as Ayu and Ro-kun were gone, Shen grabbed Lina into his arms and hugged her tight. His heart was still beating fast, terrified of what could have happened.
“Darling-choking-stop” Lina managed to gasp.
Shen immediately loosened his grasp.
“I’m sorry, I so sorry, angel” he whispered into her ear.
But then, he suddenly straightened up.
“Where is that friend of yours? She definitely set you up!” Shen’s eyes were clouded with anger.
Lina giggled, why was it that he looked so hot especially when he was angry?
“Why are you laughing?” Shen asked, confused at his wife’s reaction to her best friend’s betrayal.
Lina wiped the smile of her face, pretending to act serious. But then a thought came into her head. Mana didn’t matter, whatever she did was so inconsequential in the greater scheme of things.
Lina was so used to the blank slate in her brain after having awoken from her coma, suddenly, years of memories became hard to face.
“What’s wrong angel?” Shen said, cupping her pretty face in his palms. There was nothing he wouldn’t do to protect his woman.
“So much is going on…so much I have waited and waited to tell you about” she said quietly. “But not here, darling. Let’s please go home. Immediately.”
Shen nodded, as they both walked out from the bas.e.m.e.nt and up the stairs.
As they entered the noisy club again, Shen held Lina close as he lead her outside. She clearly hated this atmosphere, and he should have given her a good excuse to cancel on Mana. He would make sure that woman was punished severely.
In another corner of Tresor, something caught Loren Lim’s eye as he exited quietly from the room he had spoken with General Sayu in.
How could he miss her even in the dark, noisy club.
It was that woman, Lina Moshi. The only woman who could stir something inside him. She was pure like jade, her hair like a soft cascade framing her doe eyes. She was so small, and petit but her aura was mighty.
Loren smiled, as a new anger towards Shen burned inside him. Initially, he didn’t care about Shen’s wife until he received information that she had discovered his plans and interference into the Moshi Corporation shipments.
He had even tried to have her killed for it.
Until he set his eyes on her, she was a small thorn in his side. But now, he only wanted to possess her. How had she single-handedly almost taken him down? She would make a great mistress to the Lim household.
The only one worthy of replacing his great mother.
“Is everything okay, young master?” the woman with short hair next to him asked.
“Why wouldn’t it be. You worry too much, Mari” he replied, his voice level and calm as always.
***********************************************************************
As the husband and wife pair pulled up to the Moshi Mansion, it was already past midnight. But the staff was still up and awake, waiting for their young master and madam to return.
They were greeted by Butler Min and Housekeeper Tan at the door. The good housekeeper had to cups of warm green tea in beautiful porcelain cups to greet them with.
The Butler took their jackets to hang them up. They were finally home.
The staff didn’t say much, they just helped their master and mistress clean up and put their things away. They could also sense something was afoot.
Lina’s body was a little bruised and her cheek was still red. Their great demon master looked like he had been crying but the two still looked so content and peaceful together.
As if they had finally returned to the place they were so desperately been searching for.
The couple went up to the bedroom. As Lina walked in, she closed her eyes. Her memories came flooding back, all the pieces of Shen she had already remembered, suddenly falling back into place in the life she couldn’t remember.
Shen closed the door behind them, and hugged his wife from behind, enveloping her into his strong embrace.
She breathed slowly and steadily, his familiar scent all around her. She knew why she had had alarm bells going off in her head around him after her coma.
Why she had been so scared for him…how she had put his life at risk.
She had so much to tell him.
“Darling, sit down…there’s so much I have to tell you. Everything makes sense now.”
He obeyed, knowing well that the moment he had been waiting for was finally here. He would know the truth about his wife, that he had been patiently waiting for.
He held her hands in his, as she sat down next to him. He squeezed her small hands in his, reassuring her that he would support her no matter what she said.
“My love…Shen…first, I want to tell you, that you are my life, my happiness and my whole heart” those were the words that she always wanted to say before she was silenced by her coma. The day she would have left her life of espionage and secrecy for him. She would have been free.
Shen’s heart became a puddle. She had come back to him. She had fought for months to come back to him. His angel was definitely herself again. He had so much to say, but he sat in silence, allowing her to speak her mind.
“I am so sorry. I put your life at risk, I almost destroyed you. My work almost destroyed you” she choked, as she tried to continue.
But his hands grasping hers gave Lina the confidence to continue. This conversation was long overdue.
“My name isn’t Lina Mito. It’s Lina Dai. I work for a very covert organization called The Agency. They trained me to be a spy and killer. That’s why I can defend myself the way I do” she said quietly, her breathing getting heavier.
“My last mission was…you.”
