Chapter 137 - Heartless Plans
As soon as Sei heard the psychiatrist confirmed that he was indeed in love, Sei fell unbelievably quiet. He looked as though he finally solved the thousand year old unanswered mystery within him. He just remained there, unmoving like a rooted pillar of wood, however, this time, it wasn"t a frozen wood anymore.
Zaki on the other hand has been waiting for a more visible reaction from him, but to his dismay, the man just fell into a daze again. Causing Zaki"s shoulders to droop in disappointment.
"Boss, do you still have anything you want to confirm?" Dr. Izumi broke the silence, but Sei seemed to have wrapped himself with his invisible soundproof barrier again. Thus, he s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards Zaki, and the man just waved his hand dismissively.
"Err… so my job is over, huh. Phew… thankfully, Zaki is here or else I might still be waiting for Sei"s one-word answers right now…"
"Well then, I shall take my leave. Call me anytime if you needed me again." He stood up, gathered his things, and slowly made his way towards the door, before Zaki suddenly spoke.
"Wait for me outside, I have something to ask you later." He said and the man turned to nod towards him before he departed the room.
The moment the door was closed, Zaki"s gazed fell back on the rooted log before him. He moved closer to him and waved his hand before his face as he talked mischievously.
"Hey, still alive?" he asked, but it was as if he was invisible. Sei didn"t even glance at him. Zaki then sighed before he went and leaned his back on the window where Sei was staring at to get his attention.
"Now that you finally realized what you feel for her, it"s time for you to talk, Sei. What are you thinking? I wanted to know about your future plans regarding her. Is the initial plan still unchanged?" Zaki asked as he focused his gaze on him intently.
That moment, Sei just s.h.i.+fted his gaze towards the dark night outside the window as though he was trying to avoid Zaki"s question. And his blissful expression a moment ago started going cold.
However, Zaki didn"t back off, despite seeing the negative change in his expression. It was because Zaki wanted to know his answer. He wanted to know what he was thinking because from now on, things might start to follow a completely different path. A path that was supposed to be non-existent from the beginning.
Ever since Zaki realized that Davi already became an important existence for Sei, he already started formulating a plan ahead. He thought about what would happen the moment he fell for her. He thought about what will Sei do to her and his original plans.
Truth was that, there are only two reasons why Sei agreed to get married. First, was because of his grandfather"s desperate wish to have a great grandchild who will inherit Mikazuki Corporation. Second, was to use the child to take down Sei"s own father, Zhao Meng, the man considered as the current Asia"s G.o.d of business world and the man responsible for Sei"s misery.
The initial plan was decisive and clear cut with no emotion which was considered heartless and nothing more. Sei never agreed with all this because he wanted to. His marriage was just all a part of his plan for revenge. But now that things have turned out this way, Zaki has been wondering what Sei"s been thinking about. What happened to his plan? Is he still planning to continue despite it all? What about the contract his wife signed?
The contract that Davi signed, stated that the woman who will become his wife will bear his child, and after she gives birth, her child will only be his. And as stated, she"ll only live with him until she gave birth, meaning, she needed to cut off all ties with him once her mission was over and leave. Additionally, the time frame was that she needed to get pregnant within the first five months after the wedding, and if she failed, the contract stated that they will automatically get divorced and the contract will be terminated.
The contract was another heartless transaction, and worst was that the wife was clearly aware of it. She knew that she was meant to be cast aside once she had fulfilled her mission. And thinking about it, Zaki wanted to know what both of them were thinking, now that things have come to this.
"Sei, you should think about this now. You have to think about this as early as possible." Zaki finally continued when Sei didn"t talked at all.
And after few more silent moments, Sei suddenly stood and left the room taking his mask with him without any word. Causing Zaki to helplessly heave a deep sigh.
