Need You Now

In the Hua family's villa, Heidy sat under a tree in the yard, leaned against a deck chair, and leisurely looked at the sparse shadows falling on the ground. Summer was still hot and she liked to stay under a tree to relax.

In the same posture as her, Jessica lay beside her and smiled, "Do you really intend to divorce?"

With her eyes squinting slightly, Heidy said with a slight smile, "Yes, I have decided. After this incident, I'm in despair about our marriage. A marriage needs trust, but he doesn't trust me at all."

At first, she was full of fighting spirit. However, she became desperate when she saw the scene that Hearst almost strangled her because of anger. She couldn't imagine what he would do if such thing happened again in the future. Would he destroy her or the Hua group that she had been trying her best to protect? Thinking of this, Heidy did not have the courage to face the unknown.

Jessica grabbed a bottle of drink from her right hand and said casually, "But I think if I were him, I would have been as angry as Hearst when I met that situation. No wonder he wasn't angry. His son was almost killed by his wife. You have to admit that Annie's plan is perfect!"

Heidy went silent and was agreed with her. Even so, she could not accept his apology. "Just take it as I am too sentimental. I don't have the courage to accept this marriage. When he tried to strangle me, I had lost all my hope to this marriage," said Heidy quietly.

Nodding her head, Jessica smiled and said, "Yes, you're right. You can't forgive him so easily. It seems that Hearst has to pay the price for he had done to you."

Resting her head on her hands, Heidy looked at the tree in silence, and she couldn't help but picture the face of Hearst. She shook her head hard and wiped his face off her mind. Heidy was stubborn. She wouldn't change her mind easily once she had made a decision.

At night, Heidy stood on the balcony with her arms crossed. Compared with the heat during the day, when the wind blew on her face at night, it was a little cool and refreshing. Heidy closed her eyes and looked up at the starry sky. She liked a quiet night, just like now.

After a long time, Heidy slowly opened her eyes. Then she glanced around and saw the familiar tall figure. Heidy was surprised to see him. 'Why is he here?' Heidy thought in bewilderment.

A few moments later, the phone rang inside the room. Heidy went back to the room. Upon seeing the number, she hung up the phone. She then went back to the balcony, and while raising her chin slightly, she arrogantly looked towards the direction of Hearst.

Though he was a little far from her, she felt his lips slightly raised. Seeing this, Heidy frowned. Then the phone rang again and again. The melody was repeating endlessly.
