Shades Of Mr.billionaire - Chapter 286
I see, Xu Feng Brother and his wife approaching us, holding huge gift box. I think, I can guessed what inside the box, it might be a dress. Because just seeing the hugeness of the box gift was extremely distracting.
My eyes, quickly turn to Feng Teng.
“There’s my boss. And remember what you’ve promise me,” I remind him.
Feng Teng looks over his shoulder.
“Yes, you too. Till this Monday, if not I would take a charge.” He warns.
“Congratulation, little Wei,” Xu Feng Brother thrusts the gift bag at me while kisses my cheek, and then hand out to shake Feng Teng.
“President Feng, congratulation,” he greets, a frown popping up onto his wrinkled forehead when he clocks the cuffs on us.
“Thank you for coming,” Feng Teng takes Xu Feng hand.
“Yes, it’s my pleasure to be able to attend your grand wedding,” My boss said as he drags his eyes away from our wrists.
“This is my wife, Lilian,” He signals to his wife as she wobbles over with the biggest grin on her face.
I smile to myself. I know she’s affected as other women did whenever they’re face my Godly husband.
“Nice to meet you, President Feng,” she practically giggles.
“Yes, you too,” Feng Teng hits her with his smile, reserved only for women, and she disintegrates on the spot.
GOSH! He’s unbelievable.
“Please, the waitress will show your table. Waitress,” Feng Teng call.
“Thank you!” she gushes.
“This venue is just wonderful!” She exclaims.
“Hi, Lilian Jie,” I say on a smile.
“Hi, congratulation darling,” she sings in my face.
“WOW! Wei Lin, you look stunning,” she exclaims.
“Thank you, Jie.” I blurt, completely surprised.
Before she has never paid me a compliment, so I didn’t expect her to now. As she was on different circle of high social.
Then Xu Feng Brother grasps his wife elbow to take her away to their reserved table.
“Alright. We’ll get a drink,” He rolls his eyes, and I smile fondly at my boss.
“They seem less affection,” he stated.
I laugh.
“She makes my boss life miserable,” I inform.
“Gosh! I can imagine that,” He exclaims.
“There’s Assistant Yu,” I say, glancing past Feng Teng.
Assistant Yu is strolling over with his usual menacing expression plastered all over his face.
Then he stare at the cuffs before he gives me the nod and I nod back.
“A second Master,” he rumbles.
Assistant Yu seemed too serious and I don’t actually like it. Feng Teng then quick flick of his eyes to me doesn’t make me feel any better.
He reaches into his pocket and pulls out the key to the handcuffs, and I watch as he brings it to my wrist.
“What are you doing?” I ask, yanking my arm away.
“He wants a quick word.” His teeth are clenched.
“NO!” I said.
“You better don’t release me as if I was inconvenient for you. No way!” I look at Assistant Yu who’s still expressionless.
“Babe. Please, I’ll be back shortly.” He pulls my wrist back to him.
“NO! You’re not going anywhere,” I warns him and I give look at Assistant Yu.
“Just say it here,” I command at Assistant Yu.
“Everything is fine, Madam,” He assured.
“NO WAY! Nothing all f**king good!” I yell a bit too loudly as Feng Teng gave frightening scowl to me.
But I don’t care. I won’t let him to brush me off whenever it suits him.
In fact, today is our wedding day.
“Watch your mouth, wifey!” he grates and leaning into me.
“Just a few minutes, so you’ll stay here obediently.” He warns.
I recoil at his animosity, completely stunned as he makes quick release on the handcuffs before striding out with Assistant Yu.
Damn it! On the spot, I’m perched on my chair with my bride in a stunning gown, adorned with all luxurious jewellery. I look at all of our guests were still laughing, chatting and drinking. But all I want right now to go home.
Suddenly, I feel like wanted to cry slighted as I’m very, very hurting at the moment. I lower myself from the chair, deciding to make the most of my freedom. I might have a little cry, too and I need to get away from these people before my tears start flowing freely.
What is wrong with me?
“Where are you going, Xiao Wei?” My mom asks as she makes her way over me.
I put on a fake smile on my face. I find she’s had too much drink. Because her hair isn’t perfect and she doesn’t seem to care, a clear indication that she’s feeling a bit squiffy.
“Toilet. I won’t take long,” I tell her.
“Do you need some help? I’m not sure where SiSi has gone,” She looks around the ballroom.
“No need, I’m good by myself,” I leave my mom and head for the toilets, sadly looking forward to some privacy.
I push my way through the door and place myself in front of the mirror to look at my sorry face. I’m not a blushing bride anymore.
There is no twinkle in my eye or happy smile on my face. I sigh heavily and pinch my cheeks in an attempt to get some colour back into them. I’m looking a little washed out.
“Ohhh myyy Goddd!”
My head flies up and my body swings around to face the source of the long m.o.a.n. I still myself, holding my breath as I hear shuffling and shifting from one of the cubicles.
Someone is having something in the toilet?
No! I quickly gather my dress up to leave.
This could be embarrassing. I take my first urgent step, but then freeze when the door swings open and SiSi stumbles out.
I gasp, my dress dropping from my hands.
“Gosh! What are you doing?” I blurt in disbelief. I know Kevin was slightly miffed that all things kink have been removed and stored temporarily, but they could have waited.
She stiffens from head to toe, her red hair a wild mane of curls, half covering her shocked face.
“Oh shit!” she says quietly, re-arranging her dress.
“I can’t believe it, you too! Couldn’t you have waited?” I ask, horrified but a little relived that I haven’t just caught one of our other guests in the act.
“Wei Wei…” she begins, and then a man strolls out behind.
And it’s not Kevin. Seriously? I can’t believe with what I’ve seen.
My mouth falls open.
“Gege!” I called in shock.
OMY GOD! OH MY GOD! I don’t believe this.
“What the hell are you both doing here?” I roar.
“And SiSi!. Your boyfriend is here. Have you went crazy?” I scream frantically as I
was incredible you with this weird situation.
My brother shrugs and I know he’s refusing to look at me as keeping all of his attention on refastening his trousers. And my eyes are batting between them, waiting for some explanation, but I get nothing from either of them.
They’re just standing there, both looking anywhere, except at me.
Then I throw furious eyes at my brother.
“Ge! I told you to leave her?” I shout, before turning my fury on SiSi.
“And you! Are you out of your mind SiSi?! Haven’t you learnt with what he had done to you?” I yell at her.
“Stop it! It’s none of your business, Wei Wei,” My brother says flatly, and then strides out of the ladies, leaving me and my delinquent friend alone.
GOSH! I’m so mad with my brother irresponsible behaviour.
“SiSi?” I push, but she’s still refusing to meet my eyes.
She knows that she’s just made a massive mistake.
“What about Kevin?” I ask.
Poor Kevin. He is loyal waiting for her out there and completely oblivious.
“Gosh! I can’t believe this.” The heel of my hand meets my forehead, my brain aching with information overload.
She hiccups and giggles a little before reaching for the sink to steady her swaying body.
“It’s nothing serious. We’re just made a throwback as a friends,” she says haughtily, I know she’s drunk.
“In fact, it’s got nothing to do with you. So leave us to our things!” She’s declared.
“Really? So it’s got nothing to do with me anymore right?” I exclaim, then lifting my dress.
“Fine! I’ll leave you to have your throwback with friend then!” I finish my words and leave the toilets.
So I’m heading straight back to the ballroom. The ballroom has been cleared of tables, but is now full of people, the band enticing everyone to the dance floor with some jazz romantic song. I skirt through our guests, smiling, trying my hardest to look like the elated bride and cutting any length conversation very short.
As I’ve fallen out with my brother, and now my best friend, SiSi too. Incredibly, I want to escape with my husband and be alone where there’s only us at our place when we’re at our happiest, when the world and its problems are not interfering with our little bubble of contentment, where we only have our own issues to contend with.
So I steam down the corridor and straight where he went with Assistant Yu just now, my heart falling straight into my husband as soon as I lay my eyes on the other person.
That’s person was a woman and she’s not something I know.
WHAT THE HELL GOING ON WITH TODAY?!
My wedding day just got worse. A lot of worse!
Both of them were stand at opposite of each other, and both heads fly towards me, while I just stand there feeling a little lost.
All of my anger, all of my frustrations of the day have just transformed into a great pain. I can feel my eyes start welling up with tears and my heart thundering in my chest.
Right now, I’m feeling completely crushed as hell!
As I’m not knowing what else to do, but knowing for certain that I don’t want tht woman, stand gracefully beside my husband to see me break down. I slowly step back to the ballroom quietly behind me. I walk numbly down the corridor in a haze of misery, but instead of making my way back to the ballroom, I escape to turn down the gravel pathway towards the gardens.
I sit my defeated arse on an old log and start picking at the dried bark, crumbling it to grains between my fingers, while the dark, cool evening air spikes at my exposed skin.
They were just talking, but I know Feng Teng knows how I feel about unknowm woman beside him. He definitely know how I feel about that woman just now as he leave me alone in the ballroom on our special day to see that unknown woman.
Just now, I really want to scream at him, bash my fists on his chest and yell on his face. But suddenly I have no energy even just to say a words after seeing them. All of the possession has been sucked out of me.
At the same time, my spirit has been stripped down by all these drama, either mine or others which left me feeling exposed and vulnerable undoubtfully.
Today, on my wedding day instead all other days, it’s fold clearly. Just in few minutes, I start doubtful with myself if I hold the strength, that I very need to spend my life with Feng Teng. To spend all my life fighting off all women that will endlessly attach my man either from the past or present unknowingly.
The tears I’ve been holding back jump straight from my eyes onto my lace. So now I’m definitely powerless as I can’t make these women go away, I can’t strip erase his past trace from him.
So one thing I could do isto not letting myself get pregnant. Because all the clear vision that I’ve seen with Feng Teng has blackened me out. I drop my head in my hands and sob quietly to myself even though I’ve not even got the energy to cry properly.
Through my low, pathetic weeping, I hear someone approaching behind me. And I know who, with smell his fresh and minty scent swept through my total numbness as I feel his presence coming near. Every part of my being senses for him, but my eyes don’t want to look him at this moment.
So I brush my tears away and sniff a little.
“I know you’re there,” I say quietly, keeping my eyes pointing downwards.
“Yes. I know you do,” His evenly spaced steps crunch over the ground, getting louder as he nears, and in my peripheral vision, I see him lower himself next to me.
But he doesn’t touch me. His hands are clasped in front of him, his thumbs circling each other slowly. So I can hear the tail end of his heavy breathing subsiding. I know, he’s been running around the grounds like a madman trying to find me, and now he’s just sitting next to me, all silent when he should be explaining himself, explaining why he abandoned me alone on our wedding day so he could see others woman.
I laugh to myself.
“Isn’t it funny how we’re so in touch with each other, yet you sit here now and don’t know what to say to me?” I see him shift next to me, and then his hand drifts across the space between us and rests on my thigh, his heated touch doing things that I really don’t want it to do.
I look down at his spread fingers, his wearing our wedding ring that matches with me, sparkling as he flexes his hand and squeezes my thigh.
“So he touches me,” I say quietly.
“He loves you.” he whispers.
“He wishes he could eliminate the past that’s hurting you.” He says.
I turn my face to his and see his eyes puddles with regret.
“Then why did you see other woman? And on our wedding day too, after you’ve vowed to have me by your side all day, why did you desert me just to see other woman?” I ask softly.
“Sorry babe, she’s my ex-grilfriend.” He state guiltily.
“So she’s your ex?” I laugh at his statement.
