The Billionaire's Hidden Affection

Clearly, those two were planning to transfer somewhere else.

This news almost completely shattered Wan Donglin’s last glimmer of hope.

If that’s the case, then this is definitely not a usual hijacking; it’s a deliberately orchestrated crash. The culprit’s purpose must be leaving no survivors.

"Mr. Wan, we’ve also connected with a search and rescue team. We will relay any latest updates immediately... Oh, and your wife wanted me to tell you to remain calm..."

He clung to a last bit of hope and called her again.

Yet, the monotonous voice on the other end repeated that the phone you dialed is powered off.

Just like all the other missing passengers, her phone was completely unreachable.

From the time of the incident until now, it has been precisely four days. Everyone knows undoubtedly that no one survived.

In the past, he was always the one who left without a word. This time, finally, it was her turn to leave without saying goodbye.

Just like those over ten missed calls on the phone.

That’s right, he finally recalled that it was then that he just learned of Zhang Chuchu’s suicide attempt. Old Zhang described the situation as extremely severe; he thought Zhang Chuchu was about to die... At that time, he was in a meeting with a few people, and naturally, they all rushed to the hospital together... On the way, the group was still discussing the agenda while feeling anxious and flustered; it was a really bad day...

During this time, she called repeatedly, and he said he was busy, yet she kept disturbing him.

Just like when she was bored to tears, repeatedly making nuisance calls, letting it ring once before hanging up, and then gloating: "You lazy bum, if you’re cheating or whatever, I’ll call you at random times, hmph, I’ll keep bothering you, leaving you restless..."

At that time, she was safe and sound at home in Dun City with the bustling world around, with Ms. Yang taking care of her. How could he have anticipated any danger?

Now that he thinks about it, perhaps she was calling for help then!

Help!

He was horrified, his whole being feeling like a lifeless creature, drained of strength.

Once again, the sunset descends.

He stood alone amidst the red blossoms by the white fence, gazing far off into the distance.

In a single moment, he aged.

Like an investor, who had divided his assets into several parts, one being the safest term deposits, resting peacefully in the bank, through the ebb and flow, untouched by any storm.

There were no palpitations from the futures market, no high dives from the stock market, and no sudden life-and-death situations... Yet, unexpectedly, overnight, the bank collapsed, went bankrupt, and because it was a private bank, you can’t even find anyone to claim compensation...

For over six years, he always thought, that once she graduated from South Country University, they’d naturally marry.

Also, because it had been over six years, the passion had faded, the sentiments of love had changed, entering a relatively stable state—career, work, a man’s innate competitive drive to seek fame and gain, isn’t every one more important than love?

Which couple can have burning passion for a lifetime?

Which man can sweet-talk a woman for a lifetime?

Moreover, Yan Xixi, what an intelligent and sensible person; if you disappear without reason for months, she’d forgive you; if you have rumors or gossip, she trusts you; if you don’t attend the graduation ceremony, she’d listen to your excuses; even spending two years alone abroad, there’s no complaint...

Only, by the time she disappears, it’s completely gone.

Not even giving you the chance to search.

So convenient.

You focus on your matters, I won’t bother you anymore.

(Many have asked why there’s no update, I only want to say: Update every day, rain or shine, it’s your version that has issues, hurry up and upgrade...)
