Love Comes After Marriage novel Chapter 107

"Godfather, you are wrong. Do you think he would be interested in someone like Tangning who is arrogant and has an average background? I'm not sure how she managed to get connected to Mo Ting, but in the end, she did indeed benefit."

"I don't think a man like Mo Ting could possibly be tied down by a measly model; he is the almighty king of the entertainment industry, he can have whichever woman he wants. So, as you saw...although he helped Tangning, he refused to reveal their relationship."

"Just wait and see. Mo Ting will get married sooner or later and Tangning will fall from her perch. When that time comes, we will have the chance to go against Tangning," Lu Xiaoqian reasoned as he watched the backs of the trio disappear into the distance.

"How can you be sure that Tangning won't be the one that Mo Ting marries in the end?"

"Mo Ting owns so many resources. If he was to look for a suitable partner, he would definitely pick the daughter of a rich tycoon so it benefits his business. Tangning is just a toy to play with in bed; not the type to be serious with," Lu Xiaoqian replied.

Father Five gave a "hmmph" as he crushed the wine glass in his hand, "She even dared to look down on Creative Century, I wonder how ambitious she is." On the way home, the sky started to shower lightly. After checking if Long Jie had been hurt, the atmosphere in the car became silent. Tangning turned her body to face Mo Ting. She realized his eyes were closed and he was currently resting, but Tangning knew, in reality, he was trying to hide the anger in his eyes.

Tangning's heart was uneasy as she gently brushed the back of Mo Ting's hand; he did not respond.

"Are you upset?" Tangning asked gently.

"Uh huh," Mo Ting couldn't hide his feelings anymore, "You'd rather I send my bodyguards than to ask for my help? Did you think under these circumstances, mere bodyguards would be able to protect you?"

Tangning was stunned as she tightened her grip on Mo Ting's hand, "Sorry, I didn't know it would make you upset."

"But, you need to hear my explanation."

Hearing the word 'explanation', Mo Ting finally opened his eyes. Although he was angry, he had never considered leaving Tangning nor doing anything to hurt her.

"It was something that happened quite a few years ago. At that time, I was only 19.1 met a French girl who had been working on shows for many years, she didn't care if they were big or small. However, she was only a fit model. Maybe because she was so desperate to be famous, she hooked up with a designer; this designer had a gangster background..."

"He was also a known psycho who would do outrageous things in the public. He trampled all over that girl at various events. In the end, she couldn't take it anymore, so she decided to leave him. But she didn't expect, to save her, her brother ended up...being stabbed to death..."

"As for that girl, she was force-fed drugs by the designer and never woke up..."

"This incident caused a huge outrage in France at the time. That girl had tried to call me for help on the day, but because I was in the middle of a runway show, I..."

"This incident has made me feel guilty for a long time. So, after hearing Long Jie was in trouble, I lost my ability to reason."

"I didn't want you to get involved because I didn't want you to end up like that girl's brother. It's not that I took things lightly, I was just being extremely cautious."

"Mo Ting, I was well aware of who I was up against. I've also played out the scene in my head multiple times: if I had picked up the phone that day, would I have had the courage to send myself to possible death."

"Later on, I finally understood: at that time, I may have been afraid. But now, even if I'm afraid, I would still take the risk, because that's how I deal with things." Mo Ting listened quietly as she revealed the secret she had been hiding for all these years. In the end, he let out a sigh as he gripped Tangning's hand, "First of all, I won't end up like that girl's brother. I know what you did was for my own good, but I don't want you to be good to me in that way, do you understand?"
