When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.
Cherry thought that she had finally found her happiness, but she had no idea about the dark secrets that were bound to unfold and haunt her forever...
ow what to do. He squatted by her side, gently tapping on her back to ameliorate the situation. It was all being way too much for Zed to bear.
After a long while, her crying faded slowly. Jean was exhausted now, letting Zed hold her on his arms on their way to the hospital.
As time flew by, she gained tremendous improvement in both her mental and physical condition. Jean was allowed to be discharged from the hospital after a fortnight. She hadn't let the lingering thoughts about the baby fade away yet but she was much better now.
To avoid her thinking of the baby all the time, Zed decided to stay in this city and bought a small house here for them to stay. He thought Jean's attention might be distracted in this new home, with a fresh start.
”The auction of Sirri Hotel will be held next Tuesday...” The news on the TV screen attracted Zed's attention.
Then he swiftly took out his tablet, scrolling the information on the internet. He said as he fixed his eyes on the tablet screen, ”The hotel location is good but it's decoration is unsatisfactory. So the occupancy rate is a bit low.”
Jean raised her eyes from her book. She stole a glance at the TV screen, then moved her gaze to Zed and asked, ”Are you interested?”
Zed nodded, ”Right, and I want to have a look. Can you go with me?”
Jean shook her head, saying, ”I'd prefer to stay at home.”

”Oh dear me, I ain't a child. Just go wherever you want,” Jean retorted nonchalantly.
After hearing Jean's words, Zed swiftly got up from the couch, throwing his coat to his arm. Jean was a bit shocked and asked curiously, ”You're going now?”
”Yes, the auction will be held next week. I have to do some work beforehand. If it's worth the investment, I shall decide to pay the bid deposit,” Zed explained.
Jean said with a nod, ”Okay, I see, just go and take care!”
