Chapter 18 Agreement!

by S. Q 16:49,Oct 09,2020
When Hugh Lu got back in the bedroom, Gwen sat on the bed with her clothes dishevelled, as if she had lost her mind. Her still beautiful eyes lost their usual sheen and gave no response to his return.

Hugh Lu frowned and slammed the door behind him; the loud slam startled her and brought her back from her mind-absence. Her lips quivered as if wanting to say something, but no word came out of her mouth.

Before he spoke a word, Gwen had guessed out his thoughts. He must went to the Master and demanded a divorce with her; it would be of great tolerance and mercy of him to let her off without torturing her knowing she was the “culprit” of his three-year coma.

Besides, he had witnessed the scene last night.

Which man could have accepted the truth of his wife being touched by another man.

He must came to tell her to started packing up and leaving.

Where should she go after leaving Lu’s?

Could the Wens let her off easily?

Before she could think of any solution, a document dropped before her.

"Sign this agreement."

Hugh Lu opened his mouth, and the chill in his voice was nothing like the man's last night. One was indifferently cold, the other fiercely cold, different in style, yet both so frightening.

Gwen Wen opened the documents; the first rule was that the marital relationship between the two shall not be disclosed, and the subsequent articles were all restrictions on Gwen. This was completely a one-sided agreement with not a single restriction on Hugh Lu himself.

"If I sign it, does it mean I could still stay at Lu’s?"

"Yeah. Are you gonna sign it or not?"

"yes!"

Why not? If Hugh Lu really wanted to expose her having an affair with another man, she wouldn’t have been sitting here like this now; maybe Hugh Lu had his own concerns; besides, now the Lu Family still needed her, so she would be safer staying under the protection of the Lu Family than to got out there and feared for the Wens retaliation?

Gwen Wen took the pen and signed the deal neatly.

Signing the deal, Gwen Wen rose to her feet. "Now that it's settled, I'm going to get some rest."

It had been a long night for her last night, she still hadn’t recovered from the shock and sleeplessness.

"When at this house, we are gonna continue sharing the room."
Hugh Lu said coldly." This is grandpa's request."

Gwen Wen looked at the man who had regained his full mobility; her settled heart started racing again. To share a bed with such a man? Wasn’t that a death wish to her?

"Don't worry, I'm not interested in you. I would take the bed and you sleep on the floor."
Hugh Lu was displeased to see Gwen Wen's watchful eyes.

The floor? That would be a better arrangement maybe. At least she didn’t need to worry about Hugh Lu suddenly getting horny, at least, with Hugh Lu awake and being nearby, that mysterious man would not dare to break in and hurt her. Gwen Wen sighed.

It was sorta a kind of protection for her as well.

Just that she won't be able to hold Hugh Lu's arm anymore.

That night, on the rock-hard floor, Gwen Wen slept soundly.

After that, Gwen Wen had never been harassed by that mysterious man, and the temperature of their relationship switched between icy cold and respectful warmth, depending on what occasions they were in; in front of the old Master they were a lovely couples but when left alone, he was a stranger to her; Gwen, on the contrary, enjoyed the indifference of him very much.

Hugh Lu took over some of Lu’s business; he was completely caught up in his job and could barely spare a second to give Gwen his usual glance of hatred.Gwen Wen didn’t have to cleanse his body, massage his body, either; all she had to do now was spend some time in acting as a model granddaughter-in-law with him in front of the old Master; life was unprecedentedly easy for her.

Just as Gwen Wen thought life would go on like this forever, nightmare fell upon her.

At night, while Hugh Lu read papers in his study and Gwen Wen took her early sleep on the floor, the lights went out in the room; feeling something wrong, Gwen sprung up from floor and ran toward the door; someone grabbed her by the wrist before she made it out.

“Long time no see, Gwen Wen!”
