Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife

Chapter 280 Truth unfold(3)

Yan Mei stared at the door as the words of Lei Zhao kept ringing in her ears. Her brain stuttered for a moment as every part of her body went on a pause while her thoughts caught up.

"You manipulated her best friend….."

She stood there in a trance as her body forced her to listen to the cruel truth. As they say, truth hurts. Her heart smashed into pieces as the words of Lei Zhao echoed like a sad melody in her ears.

Her fists clenched at her side as the dull ache in her heart gradually spread to every fiber of her body. She felt like her heart was being ripped out, it was gut wrenching, like a slap in the face. And when she thought it couldn't get any worse she heard the angry roar of Mrs. Leng.

"She deserves someone better! She deserved my son who loved her more than his life!"

Yan Mei blinked as the realisation struck her like a bolt and she just stood there, stupefied by the words said by Mrs. Leng.

Her son…

Leng Shao loved her….

All these years she thought he treated her so well because he saw her like his sister.

All these years they have all lied to her. Why does everyone keep lying to her?

Her heart pounded out of shock and her clenched palms became clammy.

How can Mrs. Leng still claim that she loved her and did all of this for her? Doesn't she feel guilty anytime she looks at her in the eyes and laughs with her?

A sob escaped from her lips as the people in the room finally noticed her.

"Yan Mei…" Lei Zhao called out softly even though his voice was shaking with panic. The hurt and broken fragments of pain in her eyes made his heart crushed.

Mrs. Leng eyes fell on Yan Mei standing at the door and she stilled. Yan Mei stared right back at her as her gaze moved between Mrs. Leng and Lei Zhao.

Mrs. Leng's expression grew more horrified looking at the pain brewing in her eyes.

"Please…..say something." Lei Zhao eyes searched her.

Yan Mei wanted to scream, shout and ask how? why? But as if her body had shut down, she couldn't form any words.

All the vocabulary in her brain seems to shut down. So she did what she thought was best. She ran.

"Yan Mei…" Leng Shao called out panicking when he saw Yan Mei running downstairs with tears on her face. But before he could ask anything she had run past him and had bolted out of the house.

He saw Lei Zhao too rushing after Yan Mei and frowned.

'What was going on?'

Yan Mei doesn't know how long she ran or where she was even going. Maybe she was a coward but she really didn't want to face the truth. At least not now. Her tears were falling non stop the moment she ran out of the house and people were giving her concerned looks but she didn't really care.

She stopped when her breathing became noticeably painful. She drew in a sharp breath as thunder rolled and a small droplet of water started to pour out .

Yan Mei laughed out manically. The rain was really her nemesis. She looked up at the sky

as the rain heavily dotted her face. Memories began to flashed across her eyes as her lips arced into a depressing smile.

"Feng Mei, you're my best friend I will never hurt you! I will personally murder anyone who dares to even hurt a strand of your hair."

"Little Mei, eat more. I made them prepared just for you. You're like a daughter to me and my daughter deserves nothing but the best."

"I love you…..as a sister of course and I will always be there for you."

Yan Mei cringed at the echoes of the fake lies that they had fed to her. She squeezed closed her eyelids and behind them an image of her lying across the street and begging people to save her child appeared.

Tears rolled down her cheeks as her heart broke into million pieces thinking about her poor baby who lost her life because of the betrayals of the people she trusted the most.

Her poor baby.....

Suddenly the sound of someone calling her broke through the rain.

"Yan Mei…"

She opened her eyes and saw Lei Zhao standing some few meters away from her.

It seems he had been waiting for awhile.

He slowly took a step towards her as if he was afraid she would disappear again from his sight.

"Please don't run away from me. Let me share you tears with you. If I could take it all and replace it with a smile I will do it."

Lei Zhao murmured as he stared at her. There was dullness about her. Her usually confident aura was replaced by complete sadness.

His wife…

His poor wife…

Yan Mei just stood there staring at the man she had grown to love in these short months. She stared up at his brown orbs and the amount of love flowing inside them made her heart ache even more.

She felt truly broken today, broken to the extent that she doesn't think Lei Zhao can even mend her together.

Her dull eyes searched his eyes as the rain soaked both of them. His eyes carried so much love and pain—pain for her. She knows seeing her like this again after what they had gone through together broke him.

Seeing that she wouldn't run again. Lei Zhao ran towards her and pulled her into his chest. The moment his scent filled her nostril she broke into hysterical sobs. All the strength she had left finally left her.

"Sshs….. I have got you wifey." Lei Zhao whispered softly as he held her tight.

He whispered soft words of comfort to her as he placed a kiss on her hair. He just held her as she screamed out all her grievances and pain into the pouring rain.
