Chapter 69: Lied to Lu Jingli


    When Theresa Mo heard what Junxie Li said about apanying her for the dinner, she felt her belly


    sweet.


    Her eyes became teary. She had tried to keep her tears while narrating her experience in the past to


    Junxie.


    But when he said he would apany her to the dinner, she couldn''t hold back her tears. She let it


    pour down her cheeks.


    Junxie Li reached out his hand and took hers, giving it a little squeeze. He knew her emotions were


    being poured out and the memories of the past overwhelmed her.


    She smiled through her tears. Junxie Li paused in eating and took a tissue, passing it to her. She


    collected it and cleaned her tears.


    Junxie Li looked at her with admiration in his eyes. He can imagine how it was difficult for her after she


    discovered she was pregnant.


    A time when she has no family, no job, no source of ie. A time when she doesn''t know who got


    her pregnant. She endured and was courageous enough to carry the pregnancy and birth the babies.


    What if she had taken the decision to abort the pregnancy? There wouldn''t have been Tim or Lee


    today. He wouldn''t have been proud of having kids.


    If he was a woman, would he be able to birth kids whose conception she didn''t know when it took


    ce.


    He wouldn''t let her suffer pain again and the past will be for narration. He would so much shower her


    with love that she would be the envy of many women.


    "I am sorry for the pains and the hard times you went through because of my kids. I promise to make it


    up to you"Junxie promised.


    Lu Jingli returned home from work early as he promised. He got into the mansion and didn''t meet


    Tiana. He had thought she would be waiting for him at the door.


    He went into the bedroom and met her sleeping. As soon as he stepped in, Tiana Mo woke up and the


    first person she saw was Lu Jingli.


    She raised herself to sit down and smiled. Lu Jingli removed his suit and sat beside her. He asked if


    she''s alright because she slept sote into the evening.


    Tiana said she''s fine. She had slept off while ruminating over a certain matter. But anyways, she''s


    perfectly fine.


    She let Lu Jingli go have a cold bath when she went downstairs to see if the servants had served


    dinner. The table was set and she felt ready to eat.


    It wasn''t long before Lu Jingli came downstairs to meet her. They had a sumptuous dinner and Lu Jingli


    told her about thepany.


    He talked about the new partnership and how he had invested a fortune in a processing portion of the


    Tiana Mo said he was prudent and she knows that with him handling the business, everything was


    going to be fine.


    After having their dinner, Lu Jingli said they could walk in the garden since it wasn''t that dark.


    Tiana Mo has never been so happy in a long time. She was seeing Lu Jingli''s old self that evening. He


    was like this before he changed into what she can''t exin.


    "Tiana, everything you said earlier today sank deep into me. I quite understand how you feel and your


    concern for our marriage.


    Text ? 2024 N?velDrama.Org.


    Everything got me upset after thest attempt on IVF. I don''t know why it failed. There are few


    instances where failure is recorded.


    Maybe that''s where it all started from. But I really can''t define my feelings right now. I will try to live with


    you again like in the past. I will try.


    After four years, I only saw Theresa Mo once in the restaurant in Company of her friends. She


    humiliated me and disgraced me publicly that I had to leave the restaurant before finishing my meal.


    I haven''t seen her since then. Though I wish to see her again. I want to apologise for my part in her


    downfall. I don''t know about you and the rest involved, but I need to apologise.


    If Theresa forgives us, perhaps everything will work out fine between us. I feel we are suffering from


    Karma. Don''t use me of sleeping with her henceforth.


    If I meet her today, it is not to sleep with her but to apologise to her and seek her forgiveness. Perhaps


    you should also do so.."Lu Jingli exined.


    He held Tiana''s hand. He knew his heart was void of any feelings for her but he was forcing himself to


    disy a love that doesn''t exist in his heart.


    Tiana felt Lu Jingli was right. She didn''t know it was a false impression she was carrying all these while.


    She had even met Theresa and used her falsely.


    No wonder thetter didn''t respond to her back then. So she was just imagining her to be stupid when


    she walked out on her without saying a word.


    She''s the foolish one here. She really wants things to be straight between them. Especially knowing


    she''s a mother.


    "Theresa Mo has two kids?" Tiana blurted out. She wants to be the one to announce Theresa''s new


    identity to Lu Jingli.


    "What?" Lu Jingli eximed. He paused in his walk and let go of Tiana''s hand. He turned to stare at


    her. Theresa has given birth? When did she get married or could it be...


    He hoped it wasn''t that set up that resulted in pregnancy? How will he be able to forgive himself if it


    was that incident?


    "Yeah. I met her once in kindergarten when I went to see a friend. I saw two boys , twins to be precise


    and they looked cute and adorable.


    I thought she was there to pick a friend''s kids. So I didn''t bother asking or be inquisitive about her


    rtionship with the kids.


    That was the first and thest time I have seen her in four years. Today, when I left you, I went to find


    her. Perhaps I might be lucky enough to meet or see her.


    But that was when the Principal told me…"Tiana exined her conversation with the Principal.


    There was a long silence between them. Only the heartbeats of each other were heard. Lu Jingli feels


    his heart has been stabbed and he is bleeding there.


    "I hope it wasn''t the incident of that night that resulted in those kids?" Lu Jingli asked loudly but who


    was going to give him a direct answer.


    "I''m afraid it might be. If I remember correctly, those boys are tall and are definitely three years and


    older"Tiana replied.


    Lu Jingli stood transfixed in a spot. They had ruined her lifepletely. After everything that befell her,


    she got pregnant and had kids?


    Lu Jingli and Tiana returned to the house. The former didn''t find a word to say after Tiana Mo assumed


    that the kids might be from the incident of that night.


    "Tiana, how do we find Theresa and apologise to her? We have wronged her and I greatly regretted my


    actions and the part I yed in the plot.."Lu Jingli dered.


    Tiana Mo only sighed audibly and didn''t reply to what Lu Jingli suggested. Her mother must not hear


    that she dares to go to Theresa Mo to apologise.


    She only lied to Lu Jingli when she said she was going to apologise to Theresa Mo. She was actually


    going to warn her or ask her what she wants in exchange for leaving her husband alone.


    Lu Jingli slept that night with the thoughts of Theresa Mo heavy upon his heart. He couldn''t stop


    thinking about her and how to make her forgive him.


    He was her husband and his offence was going to be more grievous if it was to be weighed. He must


    find her out after all, she is working in the Li''s Group.


    That night, Junxie Li kissed Theresa Mo passionately and held her in his arms. Theresained


    that he should be careful because of his wounds.


    But he was having a kind of feeling within him…
