Chapter 47 Bearing Insults and Burdens
I was startled, gripping my hand tightly, looking at the departing figure of Raymon, my heart unexpectedly skipped a beat. Then, I put the note into the small handbag I was holding.
When it was our turn to leave, I got into the car first, while Oswald was still exchanging pleasantries with the CEOs of several development companies. I quickly took out the piece of paper from my bag, and for some reason, my hand was shaking a bit.
Above was a handwritten phone number, the handwriting was strong and forceful, and there was a name, Raymon.
What he had given me was his contact information.
I smiled with relief and quickly tucked the note into the compartment of my handbag, also wary that Oswald might check my belongings when I was completely unaware.
On the way back, Oswald was still very excited, commenting on the people at today’s cocktail party.
I sneered and inwardly cursed a despicable villain.
I wasn’t interested in what I was saying to him. Instead, I was thinking to myself that I needed to see Raymon again and get a feel for the bottom line of Broadray Vision.
In the obscurity, I was always thinking, I had to blaze a new trail, to shift my energy. If Oswald could transfer his assets, why couldn’t I shift my business?
Although Prosper Materials was established by me, I had been away for too long and it already bore the mark of Oswald. Of course, I’m referring

to the mark of his character, which lacks magnanimity. Just like people, companies can also reflect such traits.
This idea was a strong desire that suddenly arose after I attended a cocktail party today. I was able to do it back then, and I can do it now. From now on, I have to lay the foundation for my future.
After arriving home, I hurriedly kicked off my high heels and went to take a bath. Unexpectedly, before I could finish, Oswald had also stripped and walked in, scaring me out of my wits.
“Hey! Oswald, what are you doing? Get out, I’m not done washing yet!” I instinctively covered my private parts, trying to shoo him out.
He actually came over with a playful smile, fueled by alcohol, “Wife, how long has it been since you let me touch you? Why are you still shy? Huh?”
After speaking, he recklessly pulled me into his arms, his face full of greed and impulsiveness.
I felt so nauseous that I thought I was going to die, desperately trying to push him away. Perhaps my firm attitude angered him, he suddenly changed his usual gentleness, forcefully picked me up, covered in shower gel, and took the upper hand. I was no match for him at all.
I didn’t know how much time had passed. He spoke words of passion and obscenities, then fell asleep like a dead pig. I had no idea who he was thinking about in his mind at that time.
Anyway, this was definitely not the way he used to treat me.
If it weren’t for my daughter, I think I would have killed him.
I got up, rushed into the bathroom, and looked at the marks all over my body in the mirror. I vomited profusely, constantly cleaning myself inside and out. Again and again, I told myself in my heart that I needed to speed up my actions, to leave him, to leave this beast.

I comforted myself, for the sake of my daughter’s and my future, I had to bear humiliation and burden. I washed in the bathroom for a full hour before I could calm myself down. I slept in my daughter’s room.
But when I woke up, I found Oswald by my side, scrutinizing me with his profound gaze, his eyes filled with obscure and unclear emotions.
Seeing me wake up, he gave a mischievous smile, “Wife, I’m sorry! Was I too intense last night? I just missed you too much, my wife!”
I felt myself beneath him, as if my entire skeleton was about to fall apart. I wasn’t resisting, deliberately speaking in a weak and breathless voice, “Whatever you want, maybe we should have another child! To make a ‘good‘ character.”
When I said this, I felt an unprecedented level of disgust myself, but I was certain, this was what he feared to hear the most.
Sure enough, he paused, propping himself up with his arms on either side of me and looking down at me. His expression was complex, and it took him a long time to ask me, “Is what you said true?”
“Um! I’ve been thinking this way for a long time!” I nodded insincerely, “It just so happens that now is the right time.”
I didn’t know what was going through his mind when he suddenly rolled over, hugged me, and buried his head in the crook of my neck. He didn’t say anything, just held me tightly. I could feel some warmth and dampness on my neck…
