Chapter Twenty-Three The Trick
Chapter Twenty-Three The Trick
The tears run in Becky’s eyes, she feels disgusting. Though Salina had died, she still entangled
Fabian’s heart. She worked all those years hard to be his wife, she would never let her chance slip
away this time!
It’s late night, the moon peeks through the grey clouds, pillars of the light break through the gloom in
the house. Fabian searches for the key in his bag, “Fabian!” A sharp woman’s voice comes to his ears.
He turns, “Mother? Why are you here?”
A middle-aged woman stands right behind him, looking like a lady. They walk into the house.
Becky walks out of the kitchen with tea, “Auntie, Fabian just worked late today, please don’t...”
“Enough!” Fabian’s mother cuts her from the middle. Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
“Becky, you don’t need to cover him. Do you know how messy of the company these days?”
Becky sees her pissed face and walks by, comforting her and shares a look to Fabian, “Fabian, come
on, your mom worries about you, say something.”
Fabian sneers, and says, “Becky, come on, you invited my mother here right?”
Becky shocks, she doesn't expect this answer.
“Fabian, stop! You should thank her to take care of you all these days. I knew you still thought of that
woman, Salina. What did she do to you? To make you like this today?” Fabian’s mother speaks for
Becky, pressing her chests as if she gets some pains, “Besides, I tell you now, you must remake your
wedding for Becky, I only want her to be your wife! Otherwise, you don’t need to stay in this company
anymore! And you are not my son!”
She finishes and walks out. “Auntie!” Becky stands up and chases her.
Fabian stops her, “Honey, why you...” Becky asks.
“Did I tell you before, I would arrange a day for our wedding?” He says with unpleasant, makes Becky
chill from her bones. He never talks to her in a mild tone.
“I know. But...” Becky swallows.
“I warn you now, if you ever put my family into this, you wait and see! I know what you are thinking.” He
warns and squeezes her hand. However, Becky seems impenitent, she tries to explain more and make
herself innocent.
“Nice, I never thought you would be that tricky before. Let’s break up, I’m tired.” He lets go of her with
despise.
“Fabian, please, please don’t leave me!” Becky begs behind. She feels like the end of the world.
“Please, forgive me one time, my family has saved yours for so many times, please forgive me...”
Fabian pauses, he knows how much effort Becky’s family has done for his.
“Then I warn you, don’t you ever do something behind me!”
Becky nods with crying, “Ok, ok, I won’t! I promise you!”
He leaves, Becky sits on the floor, deep in thought. She must be more careful in the future. “Perhaps,
he will change back when I have his kid...”
She walks back to her bedroom, dials a number, “What’s up, Miss?” That secret man again.
“Find a medicine for me!” Becky asks.
“What kind?” That mystery man replies.
“Ecstasy! The strong one!” She smiles.
“Ok, wait for my call.” He hangs up.
