305 Threats (2/2)

''I know this is a lot to take in at a time, yes, Jin Yue hurt me, badly at that, even caused the loss of my child, our child; but he acted out of jealousy and he has seen his wrongs and had apologized sincerely.

He has proven to me that he loves me and I can't keep hurting myself pretending that I don't, because I do, I really do.

She stopped, breathing heavily as she watched their expression;

''Is that all? ''

Her father asked, raising his brows;

Xin Yong was stunned but then she nodded;

''Good, now listen good, I don't want to see you near that man ever again, if you dare go against my orders, you'll cease to be my child! ''

Her father blared and stood up, stomping out of the parlor.

Her mother's mouth was wide open in shock, although their daughter had acted foolishly; the punishment was quite too much;

She stared at her husband's retreating form before walking after him, ignoring Xin Yong, who was yet to recover from what her father just said.

After sometime, she dragged her feet to her room and to her bathroom, after washing her face, she lay on her bed and called Jin Yue;

He picked it up immediately as though he had been waiting for her call;

''I'm sorry…''

As soon as he picked the call; Xin Yong apologized sadly; her parents had not welcomed him and had even banged the door to his face; that was quite downgrading;

''Why? I should even be the one apologizing for putting you through this, if I hadn't acted stupidly, we wouldn't be facing this difficulty now;

Jin Yue replied, brushing his hand through his hair;

He had parked a few meters away from her hose, though he was close by, he was still a bit far from her house; he didn't leave immediately, in case she need him;

''I've told you to stop blaming yourself, we all make mistakes, okay? ''

Xin Yong tried to make him feel okay but it wasn't working;

''What did they say? '' He asked after a brief moment of silence;

She sighed; ''He asked me not to speak to you anymore; else he would disown me… too bad, if only he knew we are already married! ''

The both of them burst out in a fit of laughter;

''They're just angry, I'm their only child, they can't possible disown me? '' She replied laughing a bit;

The call became quiet, each listening to the other's heartbeat, although they weren't together, they felt as though they were physically near each other;

''I miss you already; ''

Jin Yue said after a long while;

''Me too; don't worry it won't be long before we would be able to wake up in each other's arms again; ''

''I'll have to go now, Sweet; ''

Xin Yong creased her brows; ''Why? We just started talking! ''

''You need to eat and sleep, okay? Text me when you wake up;''

She rolled her eyes;

''Alright, bye, love you, ''

''Love you too. ''

…

It's been three weeks since grandparents returned from the states; although things had been quiet for a while, since grandpa and grandma were mostly sightseeing on new tourist centers in the city, caring less about the marriage alliance. They only remembered it when Da Xia came around, which she had been doing lately.
