Linda Lee felt a wobble in her steps, nearly collapsing. Even though she had anticipated Sean Parkers restlessness outside their marriage over the years, this was the first person who dared to flaunt it in front of her.
She coldly scrutinized the girl before her and asked, "Whats your name?"
"Susan Thompson."
"Ms. Susan, do you know Sean Parker is already married?" Linda met her gaze.
Susan, however, showed no surprise or shock. She brushed a strand of hair from her forehead and replied coquettishly, "I know, but soon hell marry me." As she spoke, she caressed her flat belly, the implication obvious.
A wave of bitterness surged from Lindas heart to her throat. She gritted her teeth, biting her lower lip, and asked, "Are you pregnant?"
"Yes, and as far as I know, Ms. Linda is infertile, right?" Susan looked at her triumphantly.
Linda didnt respond but pointed to the door and growled, "Get out!"
The other woman stood her ground, fearlessly meeting her gaze, and whispered, "I havent gotten the clothes yet. Sean is in a hurry for them."
"Then let him come back and get them himself!" Linda snapped and quickly entered the house, slamming the door shut.
Soon after, the sound of footsteps faded away, and Susan left.
Linda could no longer hold back and vomited a mouthful of blood. Looking at the pool of red on the floor, her heart ached unbearably. When had it come to this, that even a mistress could come to her door and gloat? Sean Parker, how could you despise me so much as to casually mention this to others?
Susan was right; she indeed could no longer bear children, having lost her fertility due to a car accident that resulted in a miscarriage five years ago.
But what did that accident mean to her, Sean couldnt be ignorant. She lost her child, her ability to ever become a mother, and also her dearest parents in that accident! After that, she lost everyone directly related to her by blood!
Sean Parker... how could you use this to please your lover?
Linda staggered upstairs, opened the wardrobe, and searched through it several times but couldnt find the white coat. She collapsed to the floor, tears finally breaking free. That woman... had entered their home, and he had brought her to their home without her knowledge!
Her gaze fell on their marital bed, and she couldnt help but feel nauseous, her mind filled with images of Sean and that woman copulating on it, while the wedding photo above the bed seemed even more ironic at this moment.
After a while, Linda got up, went to the living room, and opened the unknown courier she had just received. When she saw the contents inside, she was stunned and unsure how to react. After a long while, she cleaned up the pool of blood at the door in a daze and called Sean.
"Sean, arent you looking for a suit? Come back and get it yourself; Ive prepared it for you."
On the other end, Sean was clearly just waking up, his voice thick with sleep as he spoke irritably, "What are you talking about? When did I need a suit? Are you crazy? I said Id come home after Im done!"
Linda didnt hang up the phone; instead, she laughed softly, her voice trembling with emotion, "Are you really not coming back? A woman named Susan Thompson just came to me wearing a dress identical to the one you gave me in the past, saying you asked her to pick up a suit for you, saying you drank too much at her place and havent woken up yet. Sean Parker, do I need to be so clear and explicit?"
"What?" Sean abruptly sat up in bed, fully alert. He looked around and indeed, she was gone. His eyes darkened, and without explanation, he simply responded, "Im coming back now."
After hanging up, Sean quickly got dressed and rushed downstairs, only to encounter Susan returning from buying breakfast. She looked at him coquettishly, "Sean, youre awake? I went out to get some breakfast for you... Ah, what are you doing?"
Before she could finish, Sean knocked the breakfast from her hands, his eyes bloodshot as he noticed the coat on her, immediately grabbing her collar, furiously demanding, "Where did you get this coat? Who gave you permission to touch it?!"
