THE HIDDEN WIFE OF THE COLD CEO

Li Huan grabbed her hands that she just put on the table and asked, "Does your husband bully you? How could you allow them to force you to get married? Look, you are not happy."

Jia Li shook his hands off and said to him, "Brother Huan, nobody forced me."

"Are you trying to say that you agreed to marry someone you don't love? Jia Li, how could you do this?" Li Huan asked in a heartbroken voice.

He was truly heartbroken. He has been waiting patiently for her to graduate, so he could make her his girlfriend and then wife, but she shocked him today by telling her she was married.

"I did that to repay a debt. The Fu family has done so much for me. I needed to show appreciation to them but I didn't have anything on me." Jia Li said as she looked down.

"So, you sold yourself and your future to repay a debt?" Li Huan asked with creased brows.

Jia Li saw that Li Huan's face didn't look good and hurried to placate him, "It's not like that. Brother Huan, don't worry about me, I'm fine."

"How can you be fine?! How could you agree to a forced marriage, you would have asked me for help. Jia Li, this doesn't dwell on me, take me to the Fu Family, I will help you ask for a divorce, I can't bear to see you unhappy." Li Huan said with a great deal of heartache.

"Brother Huan, I am not unhappy, and I can't get a divorce. Nobody in the Fu family is allowed to get a divorce, it's a rule." Jia Li revealed.

Li Huan was tongue-tied for a while. "Jia Li what have you gotten yourself into? It's all my fault, I wanted to wait till you graduate before asking you out but this had to happen." Li Huan said with a tone of regret.

Jia Li was starting to feel occasional glances at their table and she was too uncomfortable to continue sitting there. She was too uncomfortable to worry about Li Huan's feelings.

"Brother Huan, I...I need to go now." Jia Li said and stood up from her seat and lifted her bag but Li Huan stood up and grabbed her hand.

"Jia Li, please hold on, you can't leave like that." Li Huan said as he gazed at her with a heartbroken gaze.

Jia Li felt all eyes on them and tried to break free from him but she failed to do that because of his strength. She frowned and said to him, "Brother Huan, let go, you're hurting me."

Li Huan came back to his senses and let her go and mutters an apology, "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hurt you."

Jia Li massaged the place he had just grabbed. But before she could say anything to him, She heard a mature female voice coming from the side.

"Look who I saw today. So, you are the legendary Jia Li?" Bai Fen asked as she approached them with a smile. She had her phone and handbag in hand.

Jia Li and Li Huan glanced at her in surprise.

"Do you know her?" Li Huan asked as he glanced at Bai Fen with a frown.

"No." Jia Li replied in a soft tone. She looked very surprised that the woman that was now standing in front of her, knew who she was but she had no idea of her identity.

"Aunty, do you know me and please who are you?" Jia Li asked politely with her gaze on Bai Fen.

Bai Fen snorted and glanced at her with eyes full of malice. "I am a friend of the Fu family and of course I know you very well. You snatched my daughter's place but all it's good now because you will be sent away from the Fu family today."

Jia Li was shocked by her words. She wondered who Bai Fen was and how she was related to the Fu Family and why she said she would be sent out from the Fu family.

Seeing Jia Li's confusion, Bai Fen smiled and glanced at Li Huan before gazing back at her. "You are already married, but you are out here with another man. I saw you two act intimately several times now and I couldn't help but come over."

Jia Li was shocked by the way Bai Fen twisted her words and hurried to explain since she said she was related to the Fu family. She didn't want her to go around spreading fake news. "Aunty, I think there is a misunderstanding. This is my childhood friend and nothing is going on between us."

"Do you think I'm blind? You are married and also pregnant but you are still shameless and uncultured to still be fooling around with your childhood sweetheart, you are truly shameless!" Bai Fen said in a tone full of hatred.

"You are pregnant?" Li Huan asked Jia Li in shock after hearing Bai Fen mention it.

Jia Li's eyes became teary after being abused by Bai Fen. She didn't know what she did wrong and how she had offended her.

"What a pair of adulterous couple!" Bai Fen spat and turned and trotted out of the cafe.

Tears dropped from Jia Li's eyes as she felt the heated gazes on her. Li Huan forgot about her pregnancy as he became worried when he saw her tears.

He put his hand on her shoulder and tried to console her, but Jia Li dodged him.

"Brother Huan, I have to go now." Jia Li said to him as she choked on her tears. Then she ran out of the cafe immediately without waiting for his response.

Li Huan chased after her immediately as he kept calling for her, but all of his calls fell on deaf ears.

Jia Li cried and stopped a cab and got in immediately before Li Huan could stop her.

Li Huan could only stand and watch as the cab drove away, as it was already too late to chase after Jia Li.
