Unexpected Second Chance at Love

Chapter 602 will never have

Hearing those words again that she killed an innocent person, Ning Mei abruptly looks at Yue Ling. She covers her ears with her hands and shakes her head.

"I didn’t kill anyone! The only person I wanted dead more than anything is you!!"

Her screaming voice echoes inside the room and she kicks her feet like an angry child who didn’t get what she wanted. The sound of the chain around her ankle clanks with her, but she didn’t care.

She points at Yue Ling with her trembling hand and her screams continues.

"It’s always about you! Even when you are no longer in the modeling industry, everything is still about you! Everywhere I go, it’s always Han Yue Ling, Han Yue Ling, Han Yue Ling! What about me?! What about all the hard work I put in as a model?!"

She screams every word at the top of her lungs as it caused her breathing to turn heavy. Her eyes were red and swollen from crying, but she made sure her anger was written on her face for Yue Ling to see.

"Everything you have should have been mine! You don’t deserve any of it!!"

Listening to her rant about nonsense, Liu Shan, Lin Hui and Nie Chen were more dumbfounded than ever.

Ning Mei wants their boss dead all because she (Yue Ling) had worked hard to be where she is today. It’s understanding as to why she would be jealous, but the woman is clearly not seeing the bigger picture.

Just like every model in the world, Yue Ling was also once a rookie model when she first entered the modeling industry. She strived every day just to make her name known to the world.

Everything Yue Ling did to become the model that she was before retiring was with her own two hands and feet. She did her best just like any other human being. If someone did better than her, she would fix her own mistakes and use it as motivation to do better the next time.

She wasn’t like Ning Mei, who would scheme against those who were better than her. Not only that, she (Yue Ling) never went around and climb into any person’s bed just so they could help her.

As the three men thought about the same thing, Yue Ling was oblivious to their mind. She kept her eyes on Ning Mei with an emotionless expression.

"I never once begged or conspire with anyone just to get to where I stand today. Everything I achieved were because of my own hard work and those who supported me along the way."

She knows that the modeling industry is tough, but that is the life you choose when you decide to become a model. You have to work hard every day just to let others know who you are. You cannot just become a model and expect the whole world to already know who you are.

There were even times when she wanted to give up being a model, but she told herself to be strong as she had her family, friends, and subordinates with her. Without them, she would have never become the person she is right now.

Her thoughts end and she slowly blinks her eyes that were locked on Ning Mei.

"You said I don’t deserve any of the things I achieved, but if I don’t, then that means someone like you definitely doesn’t."

As her words fell, she sighs a smile and shakes her head lightly.

"However, that is the difference between us. Everything I have is not yours. What I have is something a murderer like yourself will never have."

Yue Ling’s words dropped like one mountain after another as Ning Mei could only bite her lower lip.

It’s true that she is nothing compare to Yue Ling and everything Yue Ling has, she (Ning Mei) will never have. Yes, she is part of the Ning family, but her parents and brother don’t support her choice in becoming a model. They barely even speak to her now.

However, she has tried so many times to make name known in the modeling industry, but everything always fail.

Just like during the Fall Fashion Show. She thought that since she secured the position as An Qing’s opening model, she would finally get everyone’s attention, but in the end, all the media talked about was Yue Ling, who had already retired from the modeling industry.

As she thought these things to herself, she suddenly remembers something Yue Ling had said.

She looks up at the tall woman and her entire being tremble with coldness in her eyes.

"So what if I don’t have anything that you have. You, Han Yue Ling cannot slander me for being a murderer. I’ve said it many times that I have not killed anyone!"

Yue Ling’s expression remained the same calmness even when Ning Mei raised her voice. She stares at Ning Mei and her thoughts became unreadable before her lips part to speak.

"Your hands did not kill an innocent life, but that filthy mouth of yours did."

She slowly reach an arm towards Ning Mei and gently stroke the side of her (Ning Mei) face with the back of her fingers.

"You are a woman who depends on men to get what you want and take contraceptive pills to keep yourself from having a bastard child. However, that wasn’t enough. Your greed to reach the top blinded you so much that it caused you to make a deal with Chu Li Xiang."

She spoke in a soft and soothing tone like a mother trying to ease her child’s mind from a nightmare.

"The deal you made was to have me killed, but that deal that came out from your mouth did not kill me."

Her fingers slowly trail down Ning Mei’s face until they stop at the woman’s chin. Holding it in place to make their eyes meet, Yue Ling’s words continue.

"The one you killed was an innocent baby. An innocent unborn baby whose parents only met through a sonography."

Her words fell and Ning Mei finally came to an understanding of how she is murderer. She didn’t do it with her own two hands, but she was the one who made the deal to Chu Li Xiang.

She stares at Yue Ling in silence as she was too frozen to utter a sound let alone move. Even when Yue Ling’s hold on her chin tightened so much that she could feel her (Yue Ling) nails digging her skin, she didn’t was too scare to care.

Yue Ling pinch tighter on Ning Mei’s chin and a murderous light flash in her bluish green eyes.

"It was MY unborn child, who was only 10 weeks."

From the side, the eyes of Liu Shan and Lin Hui darkens as they thought back to the tragic incident of that night. Never will they forget what happened as they were there and experienced that heart wrenching moment.

However, unlike the two men, Nie Chen was at a loss for words.

His eyes slightly widens when he heard what happened and his head slowly turns to look at Yue Ling.

He knew that Chu Li Xiang had crossed the line with Fate and Lu Tian because of a woman, but he never learned the reason. Now that he heard Yue Ling’s words, he could only feel an unexplainable feeling rise inside him.

Even he, who has been her subordinate way longer than Liu Shan and Lin Hui did not know that she was pregnant.

Thinking about all those she had already lost along the way, his fingers curl into tight fists. A sharp sting stabs his heart and he stares at her before shifting his gaze to Ning Mei.

However, unlike the grief look in his eyes when he looked at Yue Ling, his eyes were grim and full of loath towards Ning Mei.

He had swore to the heavens above that he will never hit a woman, but Ning Mei has gone too far.

Even if he were to be struck by lightning for beating her to death, he doesn’t care.
