The mobile phone was the only object remaining by the bedside.

Li Manni put the phone receiver down. She looked around the frightening office. He said he was busy at work. Was that true?

Where else could he be if not here? Where could he work?

A woman’s intuitive told her that he was hiding something from her, and it had to do with another woman. There were a woman’s scratch marks on his body. However, it had been a while since they were intimate.

They still sleep in the same bed. However, he had not attempted to touch her. Was it because she was not ovulating now, and she wouldn’t be pregnant? Or he thought of this as unimportant.

Her expression became somber. She was clenching her fists so tightly that her nails were biting into the flesh of her palm. Did he have another woman? She refused to admit, but she couldn’t continue to lie to herself anymore.

She didn’t want to believe it. She refused to believe it that her husband would have another woman. She thought they were in love. After all, he was so loving to her after their wedding and pestered her every day. What had caused the change in him now? Was it because she was still not pregnant? Or… did he have a change of heart?

She turned around and saw Du Jingtang standing at the door. How long has he been standing there? His mouth was agape in shock. While her face was twisted with jealousy, she forced a smile. “I’m going back, Jingtang. What’s wrong? Is it the way I look?” She pretended to touch her face with her hands to distract his concerned eyes.

“Oh, nothing. Nothing at all.” Du Jingtang waved his hand in a hurry. Perhaps he had seen wrong. The woman with a vicious look earlier; how could she be the kind and gentle cousin-in-law?

“Cousin is not here. I came for some documents.” He walked over to Chu Lui’s table, grabbed a huge stack of folders without thinking, and left swiftly. He did not know why, but this was the first time he felt that this woman’s smile was overly gentle. He had goosebumps just thinking about it.

Indeed, he was not one to enjoy a beauty’s grace.

The smile disappeared from Li Manni’s face the moment he left. She pursed her red lips gloomily. Her intuition was right. She must find out who the woman was.

As she walked out of Chu Lui’s office, the young secretary got on her feet immediately and bowed to her. She received an unhappy glare from Li Manni in return. It shocked the secretary. Why was she looking at her as though she had seduced the CEO?

Her eyes chased the silhouette of Li Manni in confusion before she reached out and patted her chest. She wouldn’t have dared to do anything with that man. Besides, the whole company knows that their CEO loved his wife. What would make her react in such a manner?

She was really confused.

It’s true. Sometimes, being married to such a good husband was not safe as well. A woman was always doubtful.

Was it happening to the wife of their CEO?

She flipped through Chu Lui’s recent itinerary and daily activities.

She placed her hand on her chin and nodded. That’s right. The CEO did not do anything out of the ordinary recently. He seemed to talk lesser though, and he always had a gloomy face. However, he was always like this. Less normal and more eccentric.

She hoped nothing happened. Or else, the first person to be implicated would be her because she was closest to his office.
