Chapter 268 - I Love You

"That woman loves him."

"Huh? Why did she get someone that loves CEO Jing to pretend to be his wife? Isn't she worried that that woman would get CEO Jing's heart or his body?"

Mo Xi pretended to be confused and surprised.

Donovan chuckled, "My sister is more heartless than me. Her love for that man is so scary that there is no way she would allow any woman to get close to him."

"Didn't you say that your sister arranged that woman to get close to him?"

"That's because she got that woman under control. That woman that she got would never be a threat to her. Any other woman that could potentially be a threat to her would be removed. Other women like…" Donovan's eyes were filled with pain when his words reached here.

Mo Xi could see that the person Donovan loved, was her. However, she couldn't understand why he would love her. They only met briefly six years ago, and they were on opposing sides. Hence, there was no reason why he would fall for her.

Mo Xi had a feeling that she had definitely seen Donovan before that incident six years ago, but she still couldn't remember when he saw him. She felt that Donovan could have fallen for her before that incident. However, because she didn't pay much attention to Donovan six years ago, she couldn't see if Donovan knew her before that.

"Like his wife, would all be removed by my sister. There is no way that she would let that woman have any chance of getting that man. She got that woman to pretend to be crazy, and that way, people would start to dislike that woman. However, that woman thought that by pretending to be sick, she could get that man's love and care. As for the body… When my sister sent that woman for surgery, she had people secretly removed her womb already. There is no way that that woman could get pregnant and use that as an excuse to stay with that man."

Mo Xi was stunned by how ruthless Ru Hui Ya was, but she remained normal on the surface.

"It seems like I have a very unfair trade. Your sister likes CEO Jing and so do I. If I get in your sister's way, wouldn't you and your sister remove me?"

"I have no interest in helping my sister get that man because he stole the most important person in my life, and he caused her death!"

Mo Xi laughed coldly, "Wasn't you guys the one that caused her death? If your sister could prepare that woman to imitate Mo Xi, then I am sure that you guys were the one that killed his wife."

Donovan was slightly shocked by Mo Xi's words and her bluntness.

Donovan laughed, "If he hadn't stolen her from me, then she wouldn't have been involved!"

Mo Xi laughed coldly again, "What you are saying is as though saying that someone should be blamed for not stopping their family from going out of the house after an accident took place."

Donovan kept quiet, and his heart ached once again when he heard Mo Xi's cold reply.

"Princess Luana, so, have you decided whether you want to join in this fight?"

Mo Xi kept quiet for a moment before speaking, "Give me some time to think about it. After all, my life is on the line. I don't know when your sister might just take my life."

"Sure."

Mo Xi turned around to leave. However, Donovan stopped her once again.

"Why are you interested in that man?" Donovan's voice was filled with a tinge of pain, curiosity, and defeat.

"He makes my heart beat faster."

"Wouldn't your heart beat faster naturally when you see someone that is good-looking?"

"My heart doesn't beat faster when I see you."

Mo Xi was being honest since she had seen many handsome men, and Donovan was one of them.

"Is that the only reason why?"

"He is very capable and handsome. Most importantly, he is kind."

The word 'kind' stabbed into Donovan's heart.

Mo Xi then left Heinrich Corporation, and Donovan's heart felt empty the moment Mo Xi left.

Donovan sat at his desk and then realized that tears had rolled down his face unknowingly.

Donovan's hand reached out to touch the tears, and he laughed.

"Do I miss you that much that just any woman could make me think of you?"

"You would say the same thing as Princess Luana if I asked you why you chose him, right?"

"I wish I could be kind as well. However, I can't. The moment that I was born into the family and the fact that my parents protected me when we were in danger, I had to swear my life to taking revenge for them."

"What Princess Luana said was right. I am the one that caused your death!"

Donovan's hand gripped into a fist while he slammed it to the table.

"But I didn't want that to happen!"

"I never wanted you to be in danger…"

"I wanted to save you, but my grandfather locked me up that night…"

"Would you hate me?"

"Even if you hate me, I still love you."

"Do you know that we actually met before that accident six years ago?"

Donovan smiled a little when he thought back on their past. He then took out a sandwich and a bottle of juice from the mini-fridge below his desk.

"You probably don't remember me, right?"

"When you saw me again six years ago, your eyes told me that I was a stranger to you…"

Another drop of tear rolled down Donovan's face when he said that sentence.

"I think I know the reason why you saw me as a stranger…"

"After all, who would think that the poor and weak boy in the past would turn into a monster…"

"When I was still very young, grandfather left me alone just so that I would experience how cruel this world is."
