Free Web NovelChapter 899: Chapter 339: [Heartbreaking Fairy Tale] If Only Time Could Be Recalled (Part 8)
Lin Chu didn’t fall asleep, so when the man’s deep voice reached her ears, she heard it.
But... she didn’t react at all.
Having left the Riverfront Apartment for too long, the air was filled with his scent.
She continued to lie on her side, even though she felt repulsed by the familiar warmth in his embrace, she didn’t move, as if she were in a deep sleep.
Sorry?
Can a single apology bring Dad back?
Only now did Lin Chu realize that the funniest three words in the world are ’I’m sorry.’
No wonder, when she schemed against Lu Huai’an, she asked him if she needed to say sorry, and this is how he retorted at the time: I need you to die, will you do that too? ƒrēewebnovel.com
After all these days and nights, she still remembers it vividly.
Including the cold smile on his lips and the ridicule between his brows.
And now, Lin Chu somewhat wants to give this sentence right back to him, along with a slap.
[Lu Huai’an, unless you die, I’ll consider saying ’it’s okay,’ otherwise it will never happen in this lifetime.]
...
The sky outside the floor-to-ceiling window was murky, the rain hadn’t stopped, and night was falling earlier than usual.
Lin Chu opened her eyes, and the bloodshot strands in her pupils deepened.
The man’s breathing behind her was very steady, and the strength of the arms around her waist increased.
Lin Chu tentatively called his name, "Lu Huai’an?"
The bedroom was very quiet, even though her voice wasn’t loud, it was heard clearly, and the man showed no reaction.
Seemingly unable to bear the feeling of lying on the same bed with him any longer, Lin Chu pushed away the arm across her waist, lifted the bedding, and got out of bed. ƒreeωebnovel.ƈom
Not even sparing him a glance out of the corner of her eye, she walked out of the bedroom.
Lin Chu changed clothes in the dressing room and, while the servant was not in the living room, left the Riverfront Apartment.
She was truly penniless, not deliberately putting on a pitiful act.
Having lived too long in a life without any worries about food and clothing, she stood at the intersection for the first time not knowing where to go, and the taxi fare was borrowed by sending a text message to Xu Qiubai in the car.
Destination: Lu Family Villa.
Because of the rain, there was a long delay on the road, and when she arrived outside the villa zone, the sky had completely darkened.
Yesterday, when Lin Chu was taken away by Lu Huai’an, Lu Zongjun and the old gentleman were not around, the bodyguards at the gate must have notified them immediately, but until now there hadn’t been any movement.
Lin Chu couldn’t help but think, ginger gets spicier as it gets older, knowing she would come to them on her own, they chose not to act, avoiding direct conflict with Lu Huai’an.
From yesterday until two hours ago, Lu Huai’an hadn’t let her leave his sight for even a second. If it weren’t for the cup of tea with dissolved sleeping pills, she probably wouldn’t have been able to getaway.
Lin Chu stood in the yard, watching the villa through the drizzling rain, her gaze extremely calm.
After thirty hours, she came back to this place once more, everything began here.
There’s no way.
She couldn’t let her father die with regrets.
It might have been five minutes, or perhaps ten minutes, her calves went numb, and only then did she walk up the steps and ring the doorbell.
The servant opened the door.
Lin Chu spoke first before she could say anything, "I’m here to see Chairman Lu, he knows why I’ve come."
She had slept for three days at the Lu Family, the pregnancy couldn’t be hidden.
If they didn’t act in secret, they were just waiting for her to come to them...
The servant didn’t seem very surprised by Lin Chu’s visit, she moved aside to let her in and said coldly, "The Chairman is upstairs, please wait here."
Even when Lin Chu could walk around An City unchallenged, there were few who dared speak to her with such an attitude.
When the tiger falls to the plain, dogs bully him, maybe that’s how it is.
People can be so indifferent.
The servant went upstairs, and Lin Chu waited in the living room.
Even though it had been many days, she still felt she could smell a faint scent of blood, she knew it was just an illusion, but nothing could break it.
After consulting, the servant led Lin Chu to the study room door.
"Knock, knock."
"Come in."
This was Lu Zongjun’s voice, Lin Chu wouldn’t forget it.
Pushing the door open, the elderly Old Sir Lu was seated in a black office chair, while Lu Zhengmao stood by the window with his back to her.
No one’s gaze was directed at Lin Chu, as if she were an unrelated stranger.
The pungent smell of tobacco rushed out, causing Lin Chu discomfort, although her pregnancy reactions weren’t particularly severe, she was quite sensitive to certain smells.
