Chapter 1046 - Obsession
The Anarchic Consort
Chapter 1046 Obsession
“Pretending to take one step back?” Lan Ya laughed in disbelief. One could only wonder if it was aimed at the man or herself. They had known each other for so many years and she had always wanted to treat him well. However, why did she become a hateful vampire in his eyes? He seemed to assume that all of the decisions that she made was to upset and trick him. In actuality, she had never wished for him to be unhappy.
Everyone says that the important thing is not what one has done.
Rather, it’s about who is the one that does it.
If that other person treated him in this way…
Perhaps, he would not have this kind of reaction.
After all, the person was perfect and flawless in his heart. Unlike her, in his eyes, she was probably a rude and unreasonable rich man’s daughter who thought highly of herself and oppressed others with her wealth.
However, it was time to let him go. She had exchanged some things for him to stay by her side. He had begun to despise her, but another lady even entered the picture now.
When they signed the contract, she had agreed that if he met a person that he loved, she would set him free once the contract expired.
Now, the two people started to appear in front of the media. As the most outstanding doctor, they were simply a perfect match.
Instead, she seemed like an annoying obstacle between them. It was not a mystery why he would hate her so much.
Lan Ya placed her hand on her forehead, pressing against her messily hanging hair. She seemed to have made up her mind and said something to Helian Wei Wei.
However, the man could not hear it at all.
Everything in the living realm was separated from those from the underworld.
If the media did not broadcast it, the people in the living realm could not hear the sound emitted by a soul.
Naturally, Helian Wei Wei was different from normal humans as she was a Phoenix. She looked at Lan Ya and slightly nodded. Then, she shifted her gaze onto the man and said bluntly, “Mr. Chen, your reactions are within her expectations. Lan Ya said that if you’re still worried that she would not give up and keep clinging onto you, you can open the cabinet in your office room. The two original copies of the contract that you signed previously are inside it, so you can burn or destroy them.”
She added, “As for others, she has already informed her family, saying that both of you had broken up peacefully. Thus, you don’t need to worry that the relationship between the two families would turn sour because of the breakup. Even her elder brother would not ask you to be responsible for her anymore. Even this time, she must travel overseas with her close friends. Maybe she was too silly and could not understand this in the past, but this time, she has made up her mind. She even asks me to apologize to you on her behalf when I see you. Although she can’t wish you well with a smiling face now, she believes that everything will return to normal when she comes home in three years.”
“She hopes that you can forgive her. She’s one year older than you, but she never went easy on you and always forced you to do something. After all, both of your families have been friends for many years, she doesn’t want the amicable relationship to be destroyed. She is the one to start this. Maybe you won’t believe it, but she really wants to set you free now. Lastly, she said that she hopes that you can live together with Xiao Ziqiu forever.”
“You’re lying.” The man broke into a peal of laughter in disbelief after he heard Helian Wei Wei. “It is impossible for her to say all these.”
Helian Wei Wei stared into his eyes fixedly and replied, “If you don’t believe me, Mr. Chen, you can go and check whether the contract is in the cabinet or not. The relationship between you and her is built because of the contract. Oh yeah, she said that you’re worried that she has some indecent photos in her handphone, especially of both of you. She claimed that she really loved taking photos with you at that time, so she would not delete the photos in the end. The handphone is in the cabinet too. Now, she doesn’t have anything that could threaten you. You can be in a relationship without worrying about her any longer. As for the things that she has asked me to take, you can burn them if you really don’t want to give them to me. She would not come here anymore.”
“It couldn’t be better!” The man’s voice shouted coldly as he closed the door.
He honestly thought that he would have to see that irritable face again.
Surprisingly, everything had gone beyond his expectations.
“Is this a new trick?”
The man smiled coldly and took a sip of water, as if he only could suppress the sense of loss from his heart by doing so.
However, an unknown uneasiness urged him to quickly run into his study. He hurriedly pulled out the contents of the cabinet, without bothering about his aching hand that was sprained during the emergency surgery earlier today.
All of the things that Helian Wei Wei mentioned were there.
The man’s pupils grew large as he gripped his fists so tightly, it felt slightly painful. Despite that, he did not loosen his hands.
Then, he started to make a call. It was the same as before, she had turned off her handphone.
As though the man could not suppress his feelings anymore, he violently smashed the handphone onto the ground.
Only half of the screen was still functioning, displaying the call that he had just made. The person that he called was none other than Lan Ya.
At this moment, Lan Ya had already known her situation as a soul.
She was standing despondently at the door of unit 101 with a bitter smile. Then, she looked at Helian Wei Wei and Baili Jia Jue and said, “No wonder the person on the other end of the phone would always hang up after saying hello when I picked it up. So, it turns out that it’s not their problem. Instead, they literally could not hear me. The problem is…me. I’m dead, am I right?
Helian Wei Wei did not answer her question. Instead, she asked in return, “You’re in this apartment since you opened your eyes and had never left?”
“Yes.” Lan Ya nodded.
Helian Wei Wei looked around and asked, “Have you ever thought of leaving here?”
“I have, but the furthest I can go is just outside the door. I can’t go further.” Lan Ya tried to take a step forward to demonstrate it. However, she was obstructed every time she tried to move forward, as if something was trapping her there.
Helian Wei Wei reached out her hand to touch it, as a glimpse of realization flashed in her eyes. “It’s an obsession.”
“Obsession?” Lan Ya did not understand what she meant.
Helian Wei Wei looked directly at her and replied, “Yes, obsession. If it’s possible, can you please tell me what happened between you and Mr. Chen?”
“We were still lovers three days ago.” Lan Ya’s smile seemed utterly bitter as she said, “It’s just that while other people enter their relationships willingly, I use some things to exchange for it…”
