Chapter 2 Believe it or not, I''ll Tell Your Husband About Us


    "What do I want? Jasmine, I''m warning you. If you don''t do as I say, I''ll tell Christopher that you''ve slept


    with me right now!" Vincent seemed to master my mind. From the phone, I could feel the sinister cold


    smile on his face.


    My fingers clenched tightly and my body shook instinctively. This man was very strong, and he was


    also the kind of person who would do what he said. If he really told others about our scandal, the


    marriage I was fighting to keep would copse. Then what was the point of my previous sacrifice?


    Seeing that I was silent, Vincent seemed to have mastered me better. He continued to order me,


    "Jasmine, remember tonight, in the hotel where we had sexst time, and wear my favorite white shirt!"


    "But Christopher came back today..." My tone was actuallypletely surrendered, but I was still


    making the final struggle.


    Seeing my voice finally soften, Vincent said with a smug smile, " Tonight, I will not let him touch you!"


    After he said that, before I could say anything, Vincent hung up the phone decisively.


    I was so nervous and scared that my hand holding the phone couldn''t help trembling. "What on earth is


    Vincent thinking? He has many women, why does he keep pestering me?"


    Was it that his rtionship with Christopher had never been on good terms, so he was looking for a


    chance to take revenge on him?


    Just as when I was losing my mind, the phone rang again. I was so frightened that I shivered when I


    thought that it was Vincent calling again. When I took a closer look, I saw that it was Christopher


    calling.


    "My dear wife, I''m back!" Christopher''s voice came from the other end of the phone. I instantly calmed


    down.


    No matter what happened, as long as Christopher was still by my side and I could hear his voice every


    day, that''s enough.


    Trying my best to maintain my calm tone, I said to Christopher, "You are back? Are you hungry? I''ll go


    hometer and cook something delicious for you."


    Christopher had remained in prison for more than ten days. I knew that the food in the detention center


    was not delicious, so I decided to go home to treat his stomach.


    Christopherughed at the other end of the phone and said in a doting tone, "No need, I''ll go to the


    marketter and buy some ingredients. I''ll cook for you!"


    "Okay!" I happily agreed, but then I thought about the conversation earlier. No, I promised to


    apany Vincent for tonight, I...


    "Honey, I might have to work overtime tonight. Maybe I''ll be back veryte. Why don''t you eat first and


    don''t wait for me." I had no choice but to lie to Christopher.


    When Christopher heard this, he said unhappily in a low voice, "Why do you often work overtime? Why


    do not I call Vincentter so he can let you off work earlier?


    I know it is in vain that he fights. How could Vincent give me a holiday? Perhaps he will torture me


    tonight.


    These thoughts gave me a headache, but I really could not find a suitable excuse to convince


    Christopher. I threw that burden on Vincent and said, "Well, try calling him and convincing him to let me


    leave early."


    "Okay, do not worry about it, honey. I have the best rtionship with Vincent and our families are


    friends. He''ll definitely do me a favor this time!"


    Iughed bitterly and said to Christopher, "Then, you can try and convince him."


    Five minutester, Christopher called me with a dejected look on his face. He apologized to me,


    "Honey, Vincent said you have a very important matter to attend to tonight. Otherwise, tomorrow''s bid

    will be dyed, so..."


    "I understand," In the face of Christopher''s frustration and disappointment, I suddenly felt guilty for him.


    Thus, I said apologetically to Christopher, "Christopher, I promise you that no matter how long I work, I


    will go back and apany you!"


    Christopher was very d to hear my promise. "All right, I''ll wait for you when I have finished


    cooking, and no matter what time it is, I''ll wait for you!"


    Time passed by and by until the second before his closing time. Vincent still didn''t distress me. I naively


    thought that he would let me go for Christopher''s sake, but I was wrong!


    Just as I packed up my things and was about to say goodbye to thepany, Vincent''s call came in


    time.


    "Do you want me to go down and pick you up?" Vincent''s voice sounded yful, but it gave me a


    headache.


    "No! I''ll go by myself!"


    "Although I resigned and have no other things to do with thepany, I am still conservative. I still


    don''t like to be discovered by others about my improper rtionship with Vincent. That will make me


    feel like I have been stripped naked and shown off to the public. It''s so embarrassing!"
