My 18-Year-Old Wife

Chapter 6 Verse Han's showed her love

The highest building of Fengxing Group has thirty-six floors, and Mark Duan’s office was on the 35th floor.

Bosses are always on the tops, after all. But nobody knows what is in the 36th floor, since there were orders from Mark that no one is allowed to enter but Mark himself and Verse.

It was Mike’s office there on the 36th floor, the place where Mike rests himself in his leisure time, and none dare interrupt him.

Well, nobody knew that the one who’s actually running Fengxing Group was Mike, Mike only had 40% of the total share of the group, of which 30% was given by Mike. Therefore, Mark had been doing his best to help Mike run the group, since they made the most contribution in the development of Fengxing. Mark’s story of being the youngest meanwhile the most competent entrepreneur had been spreading in the cities around for a long time.

“You’re a damn prophet, Mike! You said Joe would come with Helen and he did show up yesterday! Just as you wish, I asked the guards to beat him hard as hell, what a pity you wasn’t there watching!” Said Mark, excited.

Verse dressed herself in a white shirt and a short black skirt, which exposed her charming long legs, sexy as hell. With a plate of fruit in her hand, she slowly feed the fruit to Mike piece by piece.

Mike put down the Romance of the Three Kingdoms which he had finished reading a few times and said:”I’ve been around them for two years, and I know them well. Peter would never let go of such a chance that Joe could get in touch with me given how important this project is. They could’ve winded up in a worse situation if it weren’t for Helen keeping up the cooperation.”

Jealousy crawled up Verse’s face as she sensed the softness in Mike’s voice when he mentioned Helen:”You’re still worrying aobut Helen and her families? I would just leave them dying in the ditch if I were treated like that.” Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

Mike stood up and walked to the window, sighed as he look to the view of Chuzhou City:”Not everyone...not my parents-in-law, they would’ve ended up like Joe, but they’re Helen’s parents anyway. Well, I’m worrying about Helen, she’s innocent, never even talked back when she was bullied in the Liu’s, nor dose she know anything about how cruel this world could be, let alone her stupid parents.”

Verse frowned harder. She lifted her eyes, looked to the back of Mike and said:”But the way she treated you! I’m no less worried than your parents were when you were still there in their home. She never showed you love, why are you still insisting on this?”

The smile on Mike was gone.

“Yeah...Why am I?”Sighed Mike,”This is the last time, then we’ll never meet again. We’re no longer a couple, but we were, and I’ll help her one last time for the sake of this. The cooperation with the Liu’s were all aborted but the one with her own company, it would make her the only hope of Liu’s family, and I wish those bastards would at least show her some respect.”

“What lies ahead....would be none of my business.”

Verse didn’t bother saying anything else, she knew how much Mike treasured a relationship.

“So...may I sooth the wound in your heart?” Verse walked near him and hugged him from the back, feeling the warmth of him on her arms.

“You know how long I have loved you...I could give you anything you didn’t get from that cold-hearted Helen, emotional and....physical.” No wonder Verse had so many silver-spoons bowed before her grace, she seemed to be a born succubus that no man could resist her temptation.

“Don’t.” Said Mike, frowned and stood still.

“Are your heart made of stone?” Verse was nearly sobbing,”Why are you still turning me down? Sometimes I’m not even sure if you’re a man!”

Mike sneered hearing what she said:”So I should just move on? Turn around and hop in another relationship? Is that the kind of man you want? Aren’t you even worried that I may do the same thing to you after this?”

Walking to the front of Mike, Verse looked into his eyes and said:”I’m confident. You will fall in love with me, as long as you take the step!”

Mike shook his head and replied, expressionless:”Don’t bother, I’m just not in the mood, need to get this mess with the Liu’s done as soon as possible, then head back to Capital City to see my parents, been too long last time visited them.”

It upset Verse, but it didn’t knock her faith away, since it was also reassuring knowing that Mike was so faithful to a relationship. He was just hurt too deep by Helen which made him reluctant to embrace love again.

“Helen...damn this woman...” Verse’s spite of Helen escalated.

Mike checked the time then said to Verse:”Well, you’d better go now, Peter should be here with his

families pretty soon. I want you to help Mark handle with them, his time shouldn’t be wasted on these good-for-nothing. And remember:Nobody of the Liu’s is allowed to enter this building!”

Just as Mike said, Peter went to the Fengixng Group with all his families to apologize to Mark.

But what’s there to apologize for? No one knew, they only knew that it was necessary to do so. As long as they can settle down whatever went wrong between them and gain the cooperation back, they might even be willing to kneel down.

Peter’s thought was that it was because of the divorce of Helen and Mike that led to where they were.

But no one accepted the idea, not even Helen and Peter himself. How could a live-in son-in-law, more of a parasite in the Liu’s eyes, have the power and prestige to control the decision-making of Fengxing Group?

Bullshit!

Peter brought Joe, who was supposed to be resting in the hospital, with them to show their sincerity and to plant guilt in Mark’s heart, since Joe got his ass kicked quite hard out of no reason, maybe Mark would agree to restore their relationship for this.

With confidence, they got to the entrance of the headquarter of Fengxing Group.

Well, then...they were all stopped there by the security guards that dashed out of the building seeing the Liu’s people coming.

“What? Don’t you have any idea where you guys are? You want to start a riot or what?”

It was the same captain of the security guards scorning at Peter with a rubber baton in his hand.
