Trial Marriage Husband: Need To Work Hard (Book 1)

65

After leaving the hotel, Kai dragged his lifeless body through the streets. So this was how it felt to be betrayed; anger, embarrassment, shame and loss of control - a thousand emotions coursed through his veins.

For Jennie, he had given up everything...

He even broke up with Jennie...

Yet, in the end, this was what he got in return: catching her in bed with someone else. He felt that his sincere heart had been played like a game by Krystal...

Ah...

So back when Jennie discovered him cheating with Krystal, this was how she felt. He wanted to crumble Krystal in his hands; he wanted to skin her and break all her bones. But, even if he did all that, it still would not be enough to curb his hatred because he had already given so much and sacrificed so much of his youth.

For Krystal, he threw away Jennie and abandoned Hyo Yeon; he gave up everything to help her advance. In exchange, he found her in bed with someone else.

The indescribable pain was rooted in his heart as it sprouted into anger and other complicated emotions...swallowing him whole. Three years of love ended in nothing...

Jennie...

He had once treated Jennie in the same way. Thinking of Jennie, Kai remembered all the humiliation and torture he had put her through. If this was meant to be the most painful form of karma, he was already at the point where he was in so much pain he'd rather die.

Kai kneeled on the floor defeated; this kind of humiliation, he would only allow it to happen once!

In the end, Kai phoned Jennie. In a calm voice he spoke, "Jennie, can you come back?"

On the other end of the phone, Jennie was packing her and Lisa's luggage. Hearing Kai's question, she was slightly stunned, "What do you mean?"

"Come back to my side...I'll give the best to you..."

Jennie stopped what she was doing. Her eyes contained a sense of ridicule which Kai could not see, "If I want something, I can get it myself, I don't need you. President Kim, if that's it, I will hang up first."

"Can you not leave Kim Entertainment?"

Jennie hung up the phone without responding and continued to pack her luggage; she could roughly guess what had happened between Krystal and Kai. Originally she thought she would look forward to this day, but this wasn't the result she wanted to see. Kai was turning back, not because he was truly regretful, but because he probably experienced the same kind of betrayal as her...

Not long after, Lisa packed away his documents and headed into the bedroom. Seeing Jennie standing beside the bed in a daze, he stretched out his arms and hugged her, "Sorry, I've been working till so late."

Jennie returned Lisa's hug as she tried her best to absorb the warmth from his body, "I know you are trying to make time to go overseas with me..."

"What's wrong?"

Lisa noticed a slight change in her voice; they had developed an understanding between each other over time. Although Jennie wasn't someone that usually spoke much, Lisa could still sense a change in her emotions by simply looking at her expression.

"I think Kim Jongin and Krystal have split..."

"I just suddenly feel a sense of realization. I've figured out whether I've done all this to seek revenge on them or to do something for myself. I understand now: of course it is important to make them face their consequences, but...more importantly, I want to stand side-by-side with you, on the same level."
