Chapter 325 - Cruel hide and seek game. (2/2)
Her movements were very much rough this time, giving a measure of the anger she was holding inside. Her jealousy brought this type of anger in her.
Now thinking it back, she has really changed this time. Before when he pretended to date her, she was so shy, loving and caring. But this two – year leap has changed her, changed her for good.
Now she was more daring than shy. She has turned into someone who will apply her ways to get whatever she wanted. He didn't know whether this change was the after effect of the heart surgery she had gone through or due to the position she was holding now, but he really likes the Lifen who is more wild than a shy one.
”What are you doing? Let me go. Just go and stick with your woman whose beauty you want in your daughter”, her tone was full of anger. She resisted hard but there was no way he was going to let her go.
”Shhhh… hear me out first. Stop moving and hear me out”, he said but her movements didn't seize, even it got more agitated.
”Stop that, Little Cat or I will have my way with you”, he warned and as expected her movement slowed down and then stopped at the end.
”Good and now listen to me. The only woman whose beauty attracted me is yours then how can I ask my daughter to be any less than that”, he said in the most sincere tone he would ever have.
Her temperament changed a little hearing his words.
”And second thing I have already said before. There is no way I will ever consider any woman capable to share an equal title as me. It's only you who can be and will be my wife. No one else stands in the line. Did you get it now?” he asked as he found her looking at his face turning her face a little around.
She was looking at his face as if trying to confirm his words. She herself didn't know what happened to her earlier. She just lost all her calm composure and let her heart behave on its own will.
After confirming her unknown doubts, she nodded and asked, ”So if it's all decided then can you now let me go. It's quite uncomfortable like this. I am not that light in weight”
”Fine but I want to accept the truth in front of you. There is no doubt that you are the only and the most beautiful in my eyes but there is someone that is cuter and more beautiful than you. I want my daughter to look like her or I can say a splitting image of her”, he said as he looked at her expression very minutely.
Her softened eyes got hardened again as she waited for him to complete his words. Time passed but he didn't continue. At the end she asked herself, ”And who is that?”
”It's a little girl from my childhood. The most adorable little thing I have ever met in my life. She was the light that brought me back to life when all I had around me was darkness. She made me realize how to enjoy our life even after losing everything. So if I ever got a choice then I would want my daughter to be an image of her, that could pull a person out of their darkness”, he said.
Though his words were to explain things to Lifen, his motive was different. He was looking at her expressions which were changing but it wasn't the way it should. She was surprised at his words but it wasn't the surprise she would show knowing the compliments were for someone else.
It felt like she was happy inside after hearing those words as if those compliments were for her. It was something Deming was making sure of and his suspicions were all right. Her expressions were saying it all.
Lifen really felt good to hear those words from him. At first she thought he was again teasing her with some other name but it was her own image from childhood. She almost forgot to keep on the mask she has planned to keep.
Before she could realize that her mask was already dropped on the ground revealing her true identity, she was trying to hide.
When realized, she quickly snapped to compose herself back in her composure.
”Ahh! Can't you say that directly that you want your daughter to look more like the little girl Ms. Long was in her childhood?”
Deming looked at her and smiled, ”That would have ruined your mood. And more specifically, I like the innocent little girl, not the woman, Long Jie.”
His words were clearly drawing lines between the two different identities but Lifen was really long away to understand that. 'Little Cat, this game will be over soon. I never knew that you are so good and cruel at this hide and seek game.'
