Chapter 67 - I regret everything. (1/2)

Lifen pulled her bag to her front and unzipped it. She then pulled a stack of papers out of her bag and smashed it on his hands, ”Here you go. I have given you, what you needed, so now please spare me”. Her eyes filled with disgust. With that she turned to leave, but his wide palms grabbed her wrist and didn't allowed her to move.

Deming was startled with her sharp tone. He had never heard her talking like this. He thought, was his intentions revealed. No that's not possible. And what's with these stack of papers.

He didn't care to look into the bunch of papers, ”Little Cat, what are these?”

Lifen left a disgusting chuckle, ”Huhh! Still pretending. Wow, I should suggest you something, you should try your career in the acting field too. You are really a good actor. Hats off to your skills. And this pretty face of yours is a bonus”.

She flickered her wrist free from his grip, ”And please, don't try to touch me. It's not a request, nor a suggestion but a warning”.

She turned to walk away from him but suddenly felt she didn't had enough with him, still there was something left. She reverted her eye piercing gaze back to him and was amazed when came across his intense gaze. All this while, his eyes haven't left her for a second.

She spoke in a regretting voice, ”I really regret, I met a person like you. I didn't thought my first live would turn into a mere drama of yours with zero veracity. I didn't ever thought you would turn someone like you are now”. Her eyes were moist, few drops of tears were on her eyelids which were shining when rays of street lights were falling on her.

With one look he can say, her heart was shredded into pieces. He want that. He wanted to hurt her badly, so that she can feel the pain. The piercing pain in heart which he has experienced when he looks at Jie lying on the bed half dead.

But why seeing her in pain, he is not happy. Why seeing the tears in her eyes, he is feeling that daggers are stabbing his heart. It is more painful from the one he has experienced in the past. The effect of her tears are somehow similar to tears of the little girl.

Her words, the disgust in her gaze was like a jab in his heart. His heart was aching, his fingers clenched hard on the papers which she has handed him.

She didn't care to give any further glance to him and rode her bike back to her destination.

Deming looked at the leaving figure till it disappeared in the midst of air. His eyes were portraying an wincing pain of his heart. He turned back, unaware of his own changing emotions , walked to his car and drove off.

The papers were thrown roughly on the shotgun seat.He was driving aimlessly, until he received a call. It was from Murphy. He readily received the call, without speaking any word to address the call.

Murphy was aware of this kind of behavior. He knew, his words will be heard, ”Boss, the doctor wants to meet you”.

That was all, he hang up the call and reversed the direction or his car. With a full speed he drove to the Long Mansion.

Entering the mansion, he was greeted by the maids. A maid came forward, ”Sir, today Master Long has called from overseas to know about the Young Miss and instructed by you previously, we didn't tell him about her condition”. He gently nodded and moved upstairs towards Jie's room.

When Deming has met Long Jie for the first time, she has told him that after her parents death, shd has lived with is uncle and aunt who is currently settling their business overseas and they are always quite worried about her.

Deming gently pushed the door of the room, where Murphy was standing at a corner and several doctors were analyzing Jie's condition.
