Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 339 - Accusations

Even though Jie refused to take her help, Ru considerately wheeled him to Xu Mey’s room but didn’t step inside. Instead, she gave him two thumbs up and whispered, "Best of luck, JieJie! I hope she grills you before forgiving you."

Jie stared at her disbelievingly and asked, "Are you sure you’re my Ru’er? How can you take her side?"

Patting his shoulder, Ru very conveniently added, "This young master is not taking sides. You both are wrong and I don’t side with the people who only consider their own feelings. If she was wrong in her decision, the way you reacted was also not very admirable." Saying that she turned to leave.

"Are you leaving already?" Jie’s voice made her turn her face towards him.

"Nope! Just going out to smoke. You see, smoking is not allowed inside the hospital. And I am a law-abiding person." With that, she left him while he shook his head at her.

Jie wheeled inside the room not knowing what was brewing outside behind him.

It was almost noon, but the Xu Mey’s room looked like it was enshrouded in darkness. She was sitting on the bed with her head buried in her knees.

Feeling someone’s presence, Xu Mey lifted her face and was stunned to see Jie’s brown eyes looking back at her. She wasn’t crying much to Jie’s relief. But she seemed different.

The tension and silence got thicker with each passing second. It was so thick that Xu Mey wanted to cut it with a knife. And she did! Not literally though.

"Go away! I don’t wanna see you!" Xu Mey shouted aggressively but there was a bit of vulnerability in her eyes. Silently pleading him not to go.

"Why?" Jie asked in a very calm manner.

Xu Mey’s lower lip quivered as she fought to get the words out, "You’re a liar!"

"Liar? Me? When did I lie to you?" Jie questioned.

Xu Mey shot him a glare and shouted, "You lied! You said you’d never forget me. You said you’d stay my side. You said you’d only love me!" Her response was filled with bile and accusation. Slowly, her tear ducts again opened and tears fell down. Her voice turned softer as she kept mumbling, "You don’t remember me! You don’t remember our baby! You don’t remember anything. Liar! Liar!"

With a lot of effort, Jie managed to stand up from the wheelchair on one foot and hobbled his way to her bed. He sat down right in front of her and held her shaking shoulders. Pinching her chin between his thumb and index finger, he lifted her face and tried to wipe her tears but she slapped his hand away.

"Don’t touch me! Go touch your wife!" Xu Mey snapped at him.

Pressing his lips together, Jie nodded and said, "Okay!"

He pretended to get up when she held his arm and shook her head. Her eyes were imploring him not to go. It broke Jie’s heart and whatever anger he had was instantly gone.

"Do you really not remember me, Ah-Jie?" Clutching his arm tightly, she questioned pitifully.

Jie tucked the loose strands of hair behind her ear and said, "No. I remember my baby all too well."

Xu Mey’s eyes brightened up. "You do?" Jie nodded in reply, stroking her cheek gently. "But you said you don’t know me."

"Silly, how can I forget you? I took you for a smart person. If I could remember my mother whom I just found after years, how will I forget you? Doesn’t that seem scientifically wrong?" Jie pinched her nose as she frowned deeply.

"Then why did you-," realizing something, she hit him hard on his wound. Jie winced but Xu Mey was too angry to care. "You actually played me like that? Did you care for my feelings at all? Do you know how alone I felt when you said you don’t know me?" She was fuming with rage as she started hitting him without seeing.

Jie held her wrists in his hand. "And what about you? What about my feelings? Don’t they matter to you at all?"

"What are you saying?" The confusion was written all over her face.

"Am I the only one who promised not to forget you? Am I the only one who promised I’d stay by your side? Am I the only one who promised to love only you? No! You also gave me those promises as well but you didn’t mean them." Jie’s words struck like lightning on her.

"Ah-Jie! I meant every word!" She couldn’t believe he was accusing her like this.

"Oh, really? Then tell me why did you decide to leave me?" At Jie’s question, Xu Mey was stunned.

She was lost for words. "How do you know that?" She breathed out.

"Why? Are you guilty?" Jie gave a disappointed look as he went on, "Can you even imagine what I felt? After a long slumber, the first words that I heard were my wife telling me that she’d just leave me. How am I supposed to react? Am I supposed to be okay with it? And if I am, then tell me how? How am I supposed to live without you? Ha? F*ck! You were even ready to abandon our child who is yet to come to this world!" The tears that he had been holding onto finally dropped down.
