The atmosphere inside the drawing room was very heavy. Mo Juefeng was toying with his keys while Mai Douer looked at him with a perplexed expression. She opened her mouth, but hesitated over and over again.
Ning Shu was pretending to be transparent and stayed silent.
Mai Douer’s forehead was started to become covered with cold sweat. She looked over towards Ning Shu to ask for help, but Ning Shu just shook her head. This kind of thing had to be said personally.
When Mai Douer saw her manager shake her head, she clenched her fists tightly. Her palms were covered with sweat because she seriously couldn’t bring herself to say it when she saw how aloof and indifferent Mo Juefeng was.
“What exactly do you want? You called me but you’re not saying anything? If you have nothing to say, then I’m leaving.” Mo Juefeng lifted his leg off the coffee table and got up to leave.
Mai Douer hastily said, “Don’t go! Wait, I have something to say.”
Mo Juefeng looked towards her. Mai Douer gulped, then looked towards him emotionally. “I… I love you. Mo Juefeng, I really, really love you.”
And that was how Ning Shu witnessed Mai Douer’s confession of love to Mo Juefeng. However, there wasn’t really any expression on Mo Juefeng’s face. He frowned slightly as he looked at her and asked, “So?”
Mo Juefeng didn’t seem to care about Mai Douer’s confession at all. There were too many women that loved him. There just wasn’t any woman that he loved.
It had taken Mai Douer a lot of courage to say this. Mo Juefeng’s unconcerned attitude stabbed her heart like a sharp knife and caused her facial color to turn unsightly. Her eyes became dull with despair.
“If this is what you want to talk to me about, I don’t want to hear it. You should be aware of how busy I am. Also, if there’s nothing, don’t bring other people here. I dislike it.” Mo Juefeng got up and started heading towards the door.
“Don’t go!” cried Mai Douer shrilly. She reached out to grab Mo Juefeng’s arm. Her eyes filled with tears as she said, “Mo Juefeng, don’t go.”
Mo Juefeng glanced down at Mai Douer with a frown. “Mai Douer, what exactly do you want? You should know the outcome of angering me.”
Mai Douer’s tears streamed down her cheeks and she felt like her stomach was churning. She wanted to vomit, but when she saw Mo Juefeng’s cold gaze, it caused her to feel cold all over. She hastily said, “Mo Juefeng, I’m pregnant. It’s already been a month.”
Mo Juefeng was stunned for a brief moment, then he flung off Mai Douer’s hand and glanced at Ning Shu before saying coldly to Mai Douer, “So you brought someone here today to demand compensation from me? Or is it that you want to force me to marry you?”
“I…” Mai Douer was tongue-tied. She felt like she had been dropped into ice-cold water. Before she could even say what she was thinking, Mo Juefeng’s words had stopped her in her tracks.
His words basically translated to: give up on any hope that I’ll marry you.
Mai Douer slid limply to the ground. Her tears continued to fall and she looked like she had lost her soul.
Ning Shu coughed softly to brush up on her presence and interrupt this atmosphere of flooding hurt and sorrow.
Mai Douer and Mo Juefeng simultaneously looked towards Ning Shu. Ning Shu suddenly felt intense pressure. Just as she was about to speak, Mo Juefeng cut her off. “You’re Mai Douer’s manager, right? Take your talent to the hospital and have her get rid of this child. I don’t want it.”
