Lured into the Abyss

Married for two years, my husband showered me with immense affection. A video, however, shattered my existing happiness.

As an anonymous 블랙mailer relentlessly extorted me, I unexpectedly disc...

Chapter 42 Does He Still Love Me?

"Make way, the doctor is coming!"

Lu Zhiyuan didn't see my lips. He quickly put me on the stretcher, held my hand tightly, and whispered, "Don't be afraid, honey."

A doctor in a white coat came up to me and after a preliminary examination, he quickly asked the nurse to hand me a bottle of glucose drink.

I took it in my hand and drank it in big gulps as if I had grabbed a life-saving straw.

"Drink slowly," the doctor advised me. Then he looked at Lu Zhiyuan beside him and explained to him, "It's nothing serious. You're just frightened and a little dehydrated. You don't need to go to the hospital. Just go home and rest for a day."

Lu Zhiyuan felt relieved when he heard this and used a tissue to wipe the water stains from the corners of my mouth.

After the doctor left, the property management staff came over to apologize: "Mr. Lu, Mrs. Lu, I'm so sorry. What happened today was indeed due to our negligence. We failed to complete the elevator maintenance work in time..."

"My wife needs to rest now. We can talk about other things later." Lu Zhiyuan interrupted her with a cold face. He domineeringly picked me up from the stretcher, lowered his head and asked me gently, "Wife, are you feeling better?"

"Yeah." I nodded. After replenishing my water, I was able to speak.

"Okay, let's go home." Lu Zhiyuan hugged me tightly, left a bunch of property staff behind, and took me home.

After entering the bedroom, he put me on the bed, staring at me intently with his pair of dark, starry eyes, as if in a trance.

"Is my makeup smudged?" I froze for a moment. My first reaction was that my face must be dirty. I rolled over and got out of bed. "I'm going to take a shower."

"Wife." Lu Zhiyuan held my hand and suddenly pulled me into his arms, pressing my head against his chest. I froze, hearing the thunderous thump of his heartbeat and his deep voice, "I just thought I was going to lose you."

My heart skipped a beat and my nose suddenly felt a little sore.

I felt an urge in my heart, and I really wanted to ask Lu Zhiyuan seriously again.

Does he still love me?

I pursed my lips, but restrained myself the next second.

Love or not love is meaningless and cannot change the fact that he betrayed me.

Even if he still loves me, even if he really loves two women, me and Q, at the same time, as Qiu Qiu said.

But so what?

Should I be touched by this? Should I be grateful that he still loves me?

I smiled self-deprecatingly. I shouldn't be blinded by Lu Zhiyuan's so-called affection anymore.

"Honey, when you didn't answer my calls, I thought I was going to die." I smiled at him.

After the voice fell, Lu Zhiyuan blamed himself: "I was looking at my phone waiting for your message, but at that time, I was too sleepy to take a shower, so I missed your call."

"Then how did you know I was trapped in the elevator?" I asked curiously.

Lu Zhiyuan said, "After noticing your missed call, I called back and found your phone was turned off. I was so worried that I decided to drive to pick you up after get off work."

It was because of this that he discovered that the elevator was broken and guessed that I might be trapped inside.

"Then we really are in sync." I smiled. "Thank you for saving me."

My thanks are sincere. If Lu Zhiyuan hadn't arrived in time, I might have died.

That night, I slept very soundly.

When I woke up the next day, it was almost noon.

This morning was the agreed time to hand over the documents to Yuan Yaxin. Damn it, my alarm didn’t ring!
