Chapter 78 Revenge
Wang Lu stared at his reflection in the mirror. The pain and hatred in Yan Mei's eyes have been haunting him. He had to admit that his words were cruel but when he saw the indifferent look on her face and the fact that she had ignored him, irked him. He really regrets his words because he still loves her, damn it!
Wang Lu thought he had gotten over her but the moment he saw her in front of him, a burning sensation had shot through him. The pain had thrummed through his body accompanied by happiness and relief. He was relieved that she was still alive and doing well; he doesn't think he would forgive himself if something had happened to her.
Maybe he was crazy to still care about the woman who had cheated on him and had wreaked havoc in his heart but he couldn't. Maybe somewhere at the back of his mind, he didn't really hate her. He just hated himself for not being good enough for her.
Maybe that's why she had cheated on him. He laughed maniacally as he stared at his reflection in the mirror when he realized he was doing exactly what she had told him to do; self-reflecting on why she cheated on him.
Wang Lu squinted his eyes painfully; he had seen how happy she looked at that man. When she left the box, he felt a pang in his chest like he was losing her all over again so he had chased her but just as he was a few feet away from her, he saw her walking quickly and rushed into the man's arms. Because the man's back was facing him, Wang Lu couldn't see his face, but he was sure it was her husband.
Unfortunately, he didn't also see his face at the gala nor was he able to find any information about the man. All he knew was that she was married but the identity of the man was mysterious. Wang Lu could have easily found the man's identity but he was in a hurry to know about Yan Mei that he didn't pay much attention to her husband. He knew he might be a handsome man from his stature.
Wang Lu watched as Yan Mei hugged another man and there was nothing, he could do about it; he had already lost her. He had sneered thinking she had gotten another rich man to fool but deep down he was bleeding. He realized she looked happier with him. He watched as she smiled at whatever the man said and his own lips twitched.
He stood there and watched her as she stood on tiptoed and planted a shy kiss on the man's cheek. His fists had curled by his sides as he had an internal battle with himself. He wanted to break every bone in the man's body for touching what is his.
Wang Lu had no idea but like a crazy ex stalker, he had followed them to their house. He just wanted to find where she lived so he could take revenge. His hands clenched the sink.
'Revenge.' As pathetic as the idea sounded to his own his ears considering if he wanted revenge he would have done it five years ago. He knew he could never bring himself to do it.
His jaw clenched when he saw the man wrapped a protective hand around her shoulder as if she was the most precious thing in the world. Of course, she was happy, she had found herself a new husband and also has become a rich heiress. And here he was drowning in self-pity and finding It hard to let go of the woman who had hurt him.
Memories of those horrendous night showing her true self flashed across his mind. His head hung low in the sink; he was really pathetic. He chuckled realizing he was destroying himself for a woman who had never loved him; a woman who had crushed him.
He is feared by many due to how ruthless he is in the business world but behind closed doors, he was just a feeble man whose wife had cheated on him; and is too obsessed about her to move on.
'Stupid, pathetic!' His mind screamed at him. Wang Lu balled his fist and smash it through the mirror.
"Fuck, fuck, fuck….." He yelled as he punched the mirror. Blood started pooling on his hand. Wang Lu had no idea how long he had smashed his fist in the mirror. He breathed heavily and run a frustrated hand through his hair. He needed a drink and he needed it now or he might lose his mind.

Lei Zhao watched his wife who was sleeping peacefully and sighed; she had fallen asleep when they were watching some comedy movie and had brought her to the bedroom. He planted a kiss on her forehead and went to stand at the balcony.
He called Ye Xing his assistant. The only way he could protect his wife is to know more about her ex-husband. He knew Wang Lu from the news and papers as the CEO of Wang international. They had met once at a business seminar and Lei Zhao had to admit he admired the man at that time. He was decisive, ruthless, and good at his job. If he hadn't hurt his wife maybe they would have been friends but he hurt his favorite person and he wouldn't let him go.
"Boss." Ye Xing called out respectful the moment he picked up the call.
"I want all information about Wang Lu. CEO of Wang international." Lei Zhao said as he squeezed between his brows.
"Alright boss."
Lei Zhao disconnected the call and looked at the starry sky. He knew everything wasn't as simple as it seems. How can an intelligent man like Wang Lu believes that Yan Mei cheated on him without proof? He should have seen something; something that forced him to believe and clouded his judgment for years.
Lei Zhao's main concern wasn't Wang Lu, but the person who fabricated all of this. The person who had hurt his wife. He doesn't know if the person's target was Wang Lu or Yan Mei and he wouldn't rest until he has found the person.
