This slap made William look stunned.
Married for seven years.
They had quarreled.
But hands-on, absolutely not.
From Emma's point of view, there was nothing wrong with William.
From William's point of view, he wanted to show his heart to Emma.
Even if Emma's finger scratched a piece of skin, William could wrap her with three layers of gauze.
Not to mention fighting!
However, today, William was slapped by Emma.
After being shocked and angry, William's heart felt cold.
He was completely disappointed with Emma.
While he was in jail, she cheated on Jayden.
No problem!
William admitted.
Anyway, sooner or later, they had to break up and reveal everything.
But today, what is it?
"Emma, I am your husband. Someone is trying to take advantage of you. Is it wrong for me to defend you?" William touched the place where he was beaten.
It hurts, but not that much.
Just hot and spicy.
Emma showed no regrets and burped. She pointed at William with a blushing face and said, "Shut up! Do you know how long I have been with Mr. Lincoln as a client?"
"Three months! Do you know?" Emma almost shouted.
"If you kick him, this customer will fly away!"
William sneered, "That kind of trash customer has a bad intention in the first place, so it's okay not to do it!"
"Nonsense!" Emma was extremely angry, "It's not your turn to take care of my affairs!"
"Even if he wants to drag you into a room, it's not my turn to take care of it?" William's anger was rising.
People tell the truth after drinking.
Now it seemed that it was indeed correct.
After drinking some wine, Emma's emotions completely burst out.
"Then where do you put me as your husband?" William looked directly into Emma's eyes word by word.
Emma was obviously getting drunk.
"Husband? You're such a loser, you can't make money, you can't become an official, why you have the nerve to say you are my husband!" Emma's body shook slightly.
Pointing at William, her expression was contemptuous.
The tone was frivolous.
Drunk eyes.
"Look at all other husbands who are tall, handsome, and have good careers. What about you? You're a waste!"
William looked gloomy.
He wondered if Emma was really drunk.
Or, just expressed her feelings through drunkenness.
"You drank too much!" William bit his back molars and squeezed out a few words from between his teeth.
As a man, who can stand this?
Being teased by his wife in front of him.
Especially since he already knew she was cheating on him.
The two feelings combined can drive William crazy.
Emma's words completely negated his efforts in the past six years.
Love wholeheartedly, love without expecting anything in return, and love without regrets finally merged into one word: trash.
At this moment, William wanted to laugh.
A mixed feeling of grief and anger, regret, helplessness, loneliness, absurdity, and other complex feelings swirled in his chest.
He took off the nozzle, turned on the maximum amount of water, and sprayed it on Emma's face.
"Ah! What are you doing?"
The sudden flow of tap water made Emma scream.
Slide into the bath.
There was a big splash.
This shock made Emma wake up in an instant.
William threw the nozzle into the bathtub.
He said expressionlessly, "Are you awake?"
After saying that, he turned around and left the bathroom.
Put on clothes and leave home.
After a while, Emma walked out of the bath with a pale face.
Her graceful body was covered by a bath towel.
She stumbled into the bedroom.
As soon as she entered, there was a sour smell.
In the basin on the ground was her vomit.
Emma pinched her nose, threw the basin into the toilet, and flushed it.
Then she gasped and returned to bed.
She was almost woke up.
She went through all the situations tonight in her mind.
"It's bad, William won't doubt it, right?" Emma frowned.
There was not a trace of regret in her heart.
Even if she was drunk and slapped him in the face.
Emma also believed that she was right.
William drove out of the community and drove along the river.
The time had come to almost ten o'clock in the evening.
Thinking of Emma's face just now, he didn't want to go back to that home again.
That home without a trace of warmth.
On Emma's WeChat, there was a good night smiley from Emily.
This was William's only comfort.
The car was parked by the river.
There were no pedestrians here.
The lights were darker.
Suitable for healing the sad.
The river breeze blew, bringing with it an earthy smell.
There was also heavy traffic on the other side.
William put down his seat, turned on the car audio, and turned the volume up to the maximum.
The skylight opened.
Starlight shines into the car.
A hoarse voice came out.
"The city is so empty."
"This memory is so fierce."
"This street is busy with traffic."
"Who can I embrace?"
The singing was inspiring.
Memories surge.
In a daze, William thought he was still in college.
Still in the best years.
All kinds of tastes came to his heart.
The corners of his eyes were a little sore.
It seemed that he was blown away by the river breeze.
William rubbed his eyes and shed a string of tears.
The singing perfectly covered up a man's sobs.
Until Zoey's phone call broke this strange atmosphere.
"William, where are you, and why are you so noisy?" Zoey's voice was extremely cold.
William got excited and turned off the music.
"Mrs. Gadsby, what's going on?"
"Come to my house, Lonvictels River Community, No. 5. Right now!"
Zoey hung up the phone.
Lonvictels River Community.
It was one of the famous villa areas in the city.
Just on the other side of William.
However, if you want to cross, you must bypass a bridge over the river.
Zoey's tone was so aggressive, there must be something urgent.
Without saying a word, William started the car and sped towards his destination.
The guard at the villa area didn't stop William.
Obviously, Zoey had already made a backup copy of his license plate.
This was the first time in William's life that he had entered a high-end villa area.
When he was in Starlights Group, although the salary was still quite generous.
But there was still a long way to go before buying a single-family villa.
After all, the property fees here alone cost hundreds of thousands a year.
It was really not something that a middle-class person like him could consume.
In the night, William strolled towards Villa No. 5.
Under the starry sky, the villa area was peaceful.
The lights flickered, and the shadows of the trees were mottled.
The fragrance of vegetation was refreshing.
Three patrolling security guards led wolf dogs and flashed flashlights as they passed by William.
Reassuring.
William secretly admired.
There were some places that you would never forget once you have been there.
One day, if he could become successful, he would definitely buy a villa here.
Every morning, he could stand on the balcony on the second floor, holding a cup of coffee and looking at the river view.
If life was like this, there would be no regrets.
If god could give him another confidante.
He didn't ask for more beauty or wealth, he just asked for a spiritual connection with him, and that he could spend the rest of his life with her.
Emma's derailment made William grow a lot.
Arrived in front of Villa No. 5.
William took a deep breath.
This was Zoey's home and also Jayden's home.
In other words, he would face Jayden directly at Jayden's home.
Just as he was about to knock on the door, the door opened.
William was stunned.
"Come in!"
Zoey's voice sounded from the call module at the door.
This kind of single-family villa was high-end.
Someone might be monitoring him in which room.
William hesitated for a few seconds and then walked in.
Go back and close the door.
In the living room, the lighting was psychedelic.
The saxophone solo echoed in the air.
With a taste of decadence.
In the middle of the living room, a graceful figure was slowly twisting.
