My wife is in my arms

Chapter 1393 That Woman... Part Two
A biting, cold wind howled past.

The glass window wasn't closed properly, and the curtains were swaying back and forth in the wind.

In the pitch-black room, there was finally movement on the bed. One hand reached out from under the covers and groped along the wall by the headboard for a few moments, followed by a loud "snap".

The room was completely lit up.

The figure then sat up from the bed, leaning against the headboard. Beneath her slightly red and swollen eyes were a pair of beautiful eyes, which showed a brief moment of confusion, as if she had not yet realized what situation she was in.

After a moment, the dazed look disappeared, and in the blink of an eye, it turned into confusion.

She leaned against the headboard for a long time before finally lifting the covers and getting out of bed. Since returning home last night, she had been hiding under the covers and crying... She didn't even know what time it was, and only woke up now after falling asleep.

By this time, she was already starving.

But when she thought about the unprecedented setback her career had suffered, she instantly lost her appetite, her mood plummeted again, and she didn't even bother to check the time.

Because she has gone from a model who needs self-discipline to an unemployed person.

She knew why she had become famous; it was mainly because her performance had become increasingly outstanding since the second half of last year, causing some people in the company to worry that she would become a household name in the modeling world, especially since she had rejected several overt and covert hints from senior executives of the company.

They simply wanted her to sleep with them.

This is a very common thing in the modeling industry. Any model with a name or reputation will encounter this kind of thing more or less. Someone accepts it, and then the sugar daddy behind it will help her become the top model. If she does well, she can even directly transition to acting.

however.

She ignored it.

She had been preparing meticulously for this fashion show after the New Year, but unexpectedly, something went wrong. Her high heels had been tampered with, and instead of gaining more attention through the show, she made a fool of herself on the runway.

She knew someone was trying to frame her, and the company had previously hinted to a certain senior executive to turn a blind eye. That's why, when she went to the company to argue yesterday evening, they directly terminated her contract on the grounds that she had made a serious mistake on the catwalk.

If she has connections.

Such mistakes are not the wife's fault. After all, many models do this to gain fame... Not only models, but many celebrities will also do this on purpose when attending an award ceremony in order to gain more popularity.

But her company told her to leave immediately.

She wasn't given a chance to explain herself.

When she finished packing and left the company, she saw a familiar face. The face looked at her with a mocking expression and then came over to ridicule her.

She didn't say a word from beginning to end, because it was pointless.

If she were willing to undress and sleep with company executives, not to mention this little thing, even the most serious problems would be minimized or eliminated. But she just can't do that.

Therefore, women who sleep with men can stand up and laugh at them.

She had nothing to say about this. "Success doesn't depend on the past," a saying that prevails in every industry, including the modeling world. Once you're famous, as long as your sugar daddy doesn't say anything, who would know that you got your fame through such means? And even if he did, the famous woman could sue him for defamation.

To paraphrase a saying that many women in the modeling industry say in private:

"It's nothing to do now. You can always put your clothes back on later." But she couldn't accept this statement. Clothes can be worn again, but some things that are lost can never be regained once they are gone.

Thinking about these things, she got out of bed.

She walked out of the room; it was a two-bedroom apartment of about 70 square meters. Originally, she didn't want to rent in the Repulse Bay area because the prices were too high. Just two bedrooms and a living room would cost 70,000 to 80,000 yuan a year, several times higher than other places. She had been persuaded to come by another woman who worked as a model, who said that the surrounding area was full of upscale residential communities.

It is frequented by wealthy people.

If you meet someone who takes a liking to you, you can directly transcend social classes.

As she thought, there were indeed many wealthy people around. She did meet one when she went out, and then in the second half of last year, the wealthy man bought her a house in another place and kept her there.

As soon as she leaves.

The rent, which was originally split equally among tenants, fell entirely on her shoulders, putting her under a lot of pressure.

Originally, she could still manage, but after being fired from the company yesterday, she knew she would have to move soon because she had lost her chance to become famous, which also meant that this place did not belong to someone like her.

She needs to go back to where she belongs.

Perhaps... soon she will find an ordinary job, then marry a man from a relatively well-off family and have children. Standing in the living room, looking around this 70-square-meter apartment, she felt a little reluctant to leave. Besides having lived here for so long, there was another reason: the surrounding environment was indeed very good.

Every time night falls.

She can see the night view of Repulse Bay from her own balcony, and it is truly beautiful.

At this time.

A Scottish Fold cat darted onto her from the balcony. She quickly picked it up and went to the balcony to check the cat bowl. There was still some cat food left in it. Luckily, she hadn't gone back to sleep, otherwise her cat named "Bubu" would have gone hungry.

After coaxing Bubu, whom she had neglected all day, she put it down and went to the balcony to empty the cat food from the cat bowl. She then tore open two bags of dried fish and put them into the cat bowl. While Bubu was eating, she reached out and stroked its furry back.

Then she stood up. From her vantage point, she could see the barbecue restaurant with its flashing signboard. She remembered meeting the man and two little girls last night when it was snowing.

And the scene of myself squatting by the roadside and crying my heart out. At the time, I was so focused on being sad that I forgot that my behavior seemed a bit too embarrassing.

However, that man should be the real rich man that her former roommates who lived here used to talk about, because he really had an outstanding temperament. Even though he was standing there and seemed to be wearing a mask, you could still feel his unique aura.

The clothes worn by the other two girls were quite expensive.

After standing on the balcony for a while, she turned around, went into the kitchen, opened the refrigerator, and started making dinner. No matter how much she didn't want to eat, she had to.

And being fired by the company is also a good thing.

The longer you stay in this industry, the more afraid you become.

She hasn't even become famous yet, and she's already received hints from the company's higher-ups. If she becomes famous, who knows how many more she'll encounter? If she really runs into a tough nut, she'll just have to put up with it.

Once this awareness is established...

She felt inexplicably lighter.

It was as if I had comforted myself.

Unbeknownst to her, while she was cooking, in the living room sofa on the second floor of a detached villa three or four kilometers away, a little girl was once again desperately shaking her father's arm.

She tried to get her dad to help her.
