Married to the President

Chapter 69: Lied to Lu Jingli

When Theresa Mo heard what Junxie Li said about accompanying her for the dinner, she felt her belly

sweet.

Her eyes became teary. She had tried to keep her tears while narrating her experience in the past to

Junxie.

But when he said he would accompany her to the dinner, she couldn't hold back her tears. She let it

pour down her cheeks.

Junxie Li reached out his hand and took hers, giving it a little squeeze. He knew her emotions were

being poured out and the memories of the past overwhelmed her.

She smiled through her tears. Junxie Li paused in eating and took a tissue, passing it to her. She

collected it and cleaned her tears.

Junxie Li looked at her with admiration in his eyes. He can imagine how it was difficult for her after she

discovered she was pregnant.

A time when she has no family, no job, no source of income. A time when she doesn't know who got

her pregnant. She endured and was courageous enough to carry the pregnancy and birth the babies.

What if she had taken the decision to abort the pregnancy? There wouldn't have been Tim or Lee

today. He wouldn't have been proud of having kids.

If he was a woman, would he be able to birth kids whose conception she didn't know when it took

place.

He wouldn't let her suffer pain again and the past will be for narration. He would so much shower her

with love that she would be the envy of many women.

"I am sorry for the pains and the hard times you went through because of my kids. I promise to make it

up to you"Junxie promised.

Lu Jingli returned home from work early as he promised. He got into the mansion and didn't meet

Tiana. He had thought she would be waiting for him at the door.

He went into the bedroom and met her sleeping. As soon as he stepped in, Tiana Mo woke up and the

first person she saw was Lu Jingli.

She raised herself to sit down and smiled. Lu Jingli removed his suit and sat beside her. He asked if

she's alright because she slept so late into the evening.

Tiana said she's fine. She had slept off while ruminating over a certain matter. But anyways, she's

perfectly fine.

She let Lu Jingli go have a cold bath when she went downstairs to see if the servants had served

dinner. The table was set and she felt ready to eat.

It wasn't long before Lu Jingli came downstairs to meet her. They had a sumptuous dinner and Lu Jingli

told her about the company.

He talked about the new partnership and how he had invested a fortune in a processing portion of the

company. Soon it would start yielding dividends.

Tiana Mo said he was prudent and she knows that with him handling the business, everything was

going to be fine.

After having their dinner, Lu Jingli said they could walk in the garden since it wasn't that dark.

Tiana Mo has never been so happy in a long time. She was seeing Lu Jingli's old self that evening. He

was like this before he changed into what she can't explain.

"Tiana, everything you said earlier today sank deep into me. I quite understand how you feel and your

concern for our marriage.

Everything got me upset after the last attempt on IVF. I don't know why it failed. There are few

instances where failure is recorded.

Maybe that's where it all started from. But I really can't define my feelings right now. I will try to live with

you again like in the past. I will try.

After four years, I only saw Theresa Mo once in the restaurant in Company of her friends. She

humiliated me and disgraced me publicly that I had to leave the restaurant before finishing my meal.

I haven't seen her since then. Though I wish to see her again. I want to apologise for my part in her

downfall. I don't know about you and the rest involved, but I need to apologise.

If Theresa forgives us, perhaps everything will work out fine between us. I feel we are suffering from

Karma. Don't accuse me of sleeping with her henceforth.

If I meet her today, it is not to sleep with her but to apologise to her and seek her forgiveness. Perhaps

you should also do so.."Lu Jingli explained.

He held Tiana's hand. He knew his heart was void of any feelings for her but he was forcing himself to

display a love that doesn't exist in his heart.

Tiana felt Lu Jingli was right. She didn't know it was a false impression she was carrying all these while.

She had even met Theresa and accused her falsely.

No wonder the latter didn't respond to her back then. So she was just imagining her to be stupid when

she walked out on her without saying a word.

She's the foolish one here. She really wants things to be straight between them. Especially knowing

she's a mother.

"Theresa Mo has two kids?" Tiana blurted out. She wants to be the one to announce Theresa's new

identity to Lu Jingli.

"What?" Lu Jingli exclaimed. He paused in his walk and let go of Tiana's hand. He turned to stare at

her. Theresa has given birth? When did she get married or could it be...

He hoped it wasn't that set up that resulted in pregnancy? How will he be able to forgive himself if it

was that incident?

"Yeah. I met her once in kindergarten when I went to see a friend. I saw two boys , twins to be precise

and they looked cute and adorable.

I thought she was there to pick a friend's kids. So I didn't bother asking or be inquisitive about her

relationship with the kids.

That was the first and the last time I have seen her in four years. Today, when I left you, I went to find

her. Perhaps I might be lucky enough to meet or see her.

But that was when the Principal told me…"Tiana explained her conversation with the Principal.

There was a long silence between them. Only the heartbeats of each other were heard. Lu Jingli feels

his heart has been stabbed and he is bleeding there.

"I hope it wasn't the incident of that night that resulted in those kids?" Lu Jingli asked loudly but who

was going to give him a direct answer.

"I'm afraid it might be. If I remember correctly, those boys are tall and are definitely three years and

older"Tiana replied.

Lu Jingli stood transfixed in a spot. They had ruined her life completely. After everything that befell her,

she got pregnant and had kids?

Lu Jingli and Tiana returned to the house. The former didn't find a word to say after Tiana Mo assumed

that the kids might be from the incident of that night.

"Tiana, how do we find Theresa and apologise to her? We have wronged her and I greatly regretted my

actions and the part I played in the plot.."Lu Jingli declared.

Tiana Mo only sighed audibly and didn't reply to what Lu Jingli suggested. Her mother must not hear

that she dares to go to Theresa Mo to apologise.

She only lied to Lu Jingli when she said she was going to apologise to Theresa Mo. She was actually

going to warn her or ask her what she wants in exchange for leaving her husband alone.

Lu Jingli slept that night with the thoughts of Theresa Mo heavy upon his heart. He couldn't stop

thinking about her and how to make her forgive him.

He was her husband and his offence was going to be more grievous if it was to be weighed. He must

find her out after all, she is working in the Li's Group.

That night, Junxie Li kissed Theresa Mo passionately and held her in his arms. Theresa complained

that he should be careful because of his wounds. Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.
