Chapter 416 - Lonely Jie (1/2)

Every relationship has differences. Without fights and arguments, you can't strengthen your bond. Every argument is a test to see how far you can go to keep this relationship.

Jie knew this very well. But he'd rather not have those arguments or fights with Xu Mey. However, he was still okay with these arguments. At least, it meant he still had something to fight for.

But when he recalled Xu Mey's words from this morning, he felt distressed and heartbroken all over again. And yet he chose to blame himself wondering maybe he had really done something wrong. Maybe he missed something and messed up. Maybe he overreacted. He really had no problem in lowering his head but Xu Mey really hurt him all over again. She really made him question himself and it made him feel even worse.

Nonetheless, it was not enough to make him give up on them.

As they say, 'Love means to have the worst argument with someone and realize you'd rather have that argument with them than not have them in your life.'

He had a firm belief in those words. Because only he knew how dreadful he felt when he remembered that he won't be seeing his baby at home tonight. Last night, he spent his time with his kids and didn't know that Xu Mey was missing. He thought she was home and it made him sleep in peace. But knowing she won't be home... His headache was getting worse.

He had been distracted since the time he came to the office. Even his personal assistant could see the change in his mood. It wasn't that difficult to see the gloomy aura surrounding him.

But he couldn't ask his boss what was wrong. That wasn't his place. So, he asked the next best thing he could think of, ”Sir, would you like some coffee? You seem to have a headache.”

Jie looked up at his personal assistant and nodded his head, ”Yes, please. Thank you!”

The personal assistant nodded and retreated leaving Jie to dwell on his problems all alone.

He took out his phone and looked through his contact list, he really wanted to talk to someone to ease his mind. He wanted to share this all with someone but who?

He couldn't call his parents because he wasn't really close to them. Besides, they had already chosen their sides.Find authorized novels in , faster updates, better experience, Please click #.-ceo-loves-the-devilish-beauty_12564072806923405/lonely-jie_50005602620989638 for visiting.

Should he call Azalea? He immediately shook his head. She was pregnant it didn't seem right to involve her.

He bit his lips and his fingers hovered above Ye Jun's name but in the end, he didn't press it. He knew his brother had been stressed because of his own wife, he really couldn't bring himself to worry him with his own problems.

Then who else could he call? Who would listen to him?!

His eyes stared at 'Ru' and he contemplated. If he called her, she'd listen to him. But since becoming the head of her clan, she had been extremely busy. Whatever free time she had, she spent it all on his kids because he asked for it. Now, how could he ask her to pay attention to him when the one to distance himself from her was his own self!

He really was the cruel bastard that Ru called him who forgot all about friendship once love came into the picture. If he complained about this to her, he could even hear her voice screaming in his ear, 'You deserved it, Bloody son of a bachelor! This happens to all those who forget the sacrifices of friends and run after a woman's love!'

Maybe he really got used to treating her like a god. Whenever something happened with him, he'd think of her instinctively. And if everything was fine, she'd be nowhere in the picture.

But if not her, who else did he have? Was he really this lonely?

”Sir, your coffee.”

Jie's daydreaming broke when his assistant placed the steaming hot cup of coffee on the table. Jie thanked him.
