On the day of the company annual party, my CEO husband sent me on a last-minute business trip.
When my plane landed, I got a call from his young assistant.
Before I could say a word, I heard her ask:
"Mr. Zhu, did you send Ms. Qiao on a business trip just so you could go on a date with me?"
My husband answered in an indulgent voice, "What do you think, silly girl?"
"Then let's try something new tonight. I promise you'll love it..."
The call ended amid a flurry of suggestive sounds.
I fought back my pain and called my husband again and again.
From declining my calls to turning off his phone, he never answered once.
I gave a bitter smile and put my phone away. From that moment on, I decided I would no longer concern myself with anything to do with my husband.
But later, he was the one who begged me to love him again.
