Miya is vigilant. She’s about to close the door when Susan stops her in time.
“Why do think I should trust you?”
“Because I know where did Alex to last night.”
Miya can’t help being suspicious of Alex, when she hears what Susan says the riddle becomes harder
to explain. She almost comes up to ask her, but she restrains herself at last. “He just joined the social
activity for an important project to Alex Group.”
Susan laughs after she hears what Miya says, “Did he tell you like that? To my surprise, he actually told
you like that.”
Miya is disgusted with Susan’s smile, as if she is laughing at her.
“Miya, I thought you would be different, but I didn’t expected that you would end up like me.” Susan
looks a bit crazy. She pushes Miya away, walking inside and sitting on the coach.
Because Miya didn’t sleep well last night, her mental state doesn’t look well.
“Alex stayed with me last night.” Susan looks at Miya and says.
“So, are you eager to show off to me? ” Alex specifically told her before he couldn’t be with Susan any
more. So it shouldn’t...be together for a whole night.
Besides the smiles, there’s a touch of loneliness on Susan’s face, “I’m not showing off to you. I just try
to tell you that Alex’s going back to his parents’ house tonight.”
“Going back to Parent’s House? It’s just a dinner with his parents.” But Alex told her never meddle in
the matters in that house. Her eyes open wider unconsciously. There’s a voice in her mind, “Alex, don’t
let me down!”
“Just a dinner?” Looking at Miya’s facial expression, Susan is sure that Miya doesn’t know the purpose
of the dinner. “It is a blind date dinner for Alex held by his father. He’s going to choose a daughter in
law comes into his sight.”
Miya’s face turns pale, but she says, “Father has only one child. Do you make a mistake?”
“No, I don’t. Do you think only a handful of people will read the magazines with your pictures? I’m afraid
they’ve spread all over their circle. I know Alex’s father is an old-fashioned geezer. And he thinks highly
of well-matched marriage.” Susan remembers the look of Augus, she still feels kind of uncomfortable.
Years ago she left Alex because of her willfulness, but there was more because of Augus.
Augus always looks down on her, although she was dating with Alex at that time, Augus tried to
introduce a lot of socialites to Alex. Alex loved her, and treasured her all the way so she caused a lot of
trouble.
How could she stand up to these! She didn’t pay attention to Alex at the beginning, but she changed
her attitude to him later. When she was going to treat Alex well and accept Andre, Augus found her and
said some harsh words in to her.
“Our son is always outstanding. Although he is a father now, he still can marry a socialite. And you, I
think I don’t need to say much.”
“Many of the socialites are good-looking, gentle, and smart. What do you think you are qualified to be
with Alex?”
He had said a serious of harsh words, she also argued with him at that time.
“But Alex only loved me, he didn’t love any of those socialites.”
His arrogance made Augus angry.
“My current wife and I also married between noble families, but we are happy. He may not used to it at
the beginning, but he will fall in love with his wife in the end.”
Augus was so determined, so she left this city that is familiar to her. She thought Alex would wait for
her and find her. He did it so. But she tried too hard so it was late when she came back.
She looks at Miya in front of her, as if she sees the former herself, she says, “Miya, I’m thinking of if
you’re also abandoned, will you be like me?”
“What?” Miya responds by asking, then when she makes clear Susan’s question, she says, “Susan, ”
all the time, it was you abandoned Alex.
Susan is surprised.
“I love Alex, so I trust him unconditionally.” Although this morning his temper was different from normal
days, but it was just a little temper, it could not justify anything.
Susan sighs, this is a silly woman who’s been blinded by love.
But it seems there is a man’s voice in her head.
“Because she is my wife. Won’t she believe me instead of believing you?”
When Alex gets drunk, he dislikes anyone. He quarrels with the people he meets for a while. But when
he talks of the one he loves, he becomes gentle, as if he’s talking about the best thing in the world.
Both of them acts exactly the same, but Susan doesn’t like that, “Miya, don’t be silly. Let’s go to Alex’s
dinner party tonight. Then you’ll be awake.”
“I bet although Alex join the dinner party tonight, he won’t tell you the truth.” Susan says firmly.
“Does it related to you even if he doesn’t plan to tell me?” She distrusts him a bit, but she thinks if she
let an irrelevant person to meddle in her love affair is irresponsible to their relationship.
“I...” Susan can’t answer her for quite a while, Miya is very articulate.
Miya’s strong confidence to Alex that makes her indifferent to what Susan says. It makes Susan
consider herself inferior to her.
After Susan left, Miya cruls up in the sofa. She picks up the mobile and dails to Alex.
“Honey, what happen?” Alex pinches his nose, the hangover makes him get the headache.
“Nothing, I just want to ask you what do you want for dinner tonight?”
Miya tries to keep herself sounds relax.
“I was invited to dinner tonight, so I won’t come back home for dinner. The maid found by Randy will be
on board today. You should rest more and don’t make yourself too tired.”
“Well, then...” Miya intends to ask him if he’s going back to his parents’ house, but she was interrupted
by Alex.
“That’s it! The meeting is waiting for me. I’ve really got to go.”
She gets the busy signal. Miya watches the screen, it displays the conversation is over.
