Daddy CEO's Beloved Wife

Director Zheng never thought that his wife and children could take action so quickly like this. He was still expecting himself to stand in front of them with lowered head and crying his eyes out to ask them for forgiveness. However, his imagination was just as what it was... An illusion he created inside his mind and not an accurate and realistic visions.

Director Zheng grabbed his phone once again but surprisingly, the phone call to his wife connected.

"D-dear? You finally answered my calls! Please forgive me. It was never my intentions to hurt you or our children. It was really a mistake and I never wanted to do that either! It was all that woman's fault, she made me drink a lot that night and did all those kinds of things with me without my participation!"

Not content with his words, he continued to add more whitewashing filter to him and said, "You know me for several years already, Dear... You know I will never cheat on you and you know I kept that promise we had in the past for so many years! Why would I break it just for somebody I barely know? Please forgive me, okay? Let's forget about this and focus on our family from now on, alright?"

Director Zheng almost applauded at how heartfelt and sincere his words sounds like... Well, it really contained his sincerity and heart. However, only he knew whether this words were really coming from his heart and fear of losing his loved ones.

At this point, Director Zheng had a lot of things to lose. But what he wanted to save was his wife and family because they are deeply connected to his career and future prospects. As of now, his wife was still his backer just as it had been in the past several years. Being able to keep both his wife and children only meant one thing - he could save his job.

Director Zheng's wife's name was Su Nian, she was not only the Vice President of Brilliant Media where Gu Jiao and Wen Lai was signed under, but she's also a big investor of many movies and dramas that were released these past few years. Many of these films were directed by Director Zheng and every film was backed by Su Nian to have a smooth release in the public. If not for her influence and considerable power in the media circle, the films that Director Zheng had worked on in the past would have to wait for a year or two, maybe even several years before it would be put into the lineups of films to be showed and passed the censorship examination of the ministry of the country's film and television.

Hence, Director Zheng was extremely desperate to save his marriage in order to save his job and future projects.

Su Nian heard Director Zheng said through the speaker of the phone and glanced at her children who were all sitting in the living room of one of her condominiums in the city. They looked distressed and in shock, but they weren't saddened by what had happened.

"Zheng Hua... There's no need for you to apologize. I heard about what happened so I understand you."

Su Nian has been working in the entertainment circle, how many people got married and stayed true to each other's partners? How many were able to keep their popularity and reputation? And who were those who relied on other people's power and money to stay alive and rising in their circle?

"It has been hard on you, Zheng Hua."

Hearing her say this, Director Zheng teared up. He almost wanted to go over to his wife and hug her.

Director Zheng nodded several times as if he agreed to her words.

Thankfully, his wife still wanted to side with him and knew how dark their circle was. Director Zheng was elated upon feeling that his wife would forgive him even after what happened and wanted to say something else to completely cleanse his filthy image as a cheater when he heard his wife continue to speak through the phone.

"Zheng Hua... I can accept you again for the sake of our children." Su Nian glanced over to her children and sighed. "But I should also respect what our children wanted and has to say over this matter."

At first, Director Zheng was excited and was already jumping in extreme joy of being able to save his marriage. But the second he heard her last part of what she had just said, the world in front of him where he and his wife, together with his children, smiling and laughing happily while sitting in the dining room, shattered into tiny pieces of shards before ruthlessly being stepped on by them as well.

"What do you mean? What did they say?" Director Zheng had a bad feeling and he was in shock as soon as he heard Si Nian's reply.

"They don't want you to come back... Actually, they don't want to see you or even meet you again. They also told me that they want you to never call them your children nor do they want you to be their father anymore."

Director Zheng snapped at that, "What?! How dare they say that? Aren't I their father? How could they say that after everything I did for them? Su Nian, you know as much as I do that they can't just say that to me! Unfilial brats!"

Su Nian frowned when she heard him raise his voice. She stared at her children again and lowered the volume, fearing that her children could hear what he was saying.

Director Zheng continued to scream and forgot that he was the one who made a terrible mistake and not the children. By the way he was reacting, it appeared that his children was the one who cheated and made the first move to break their family apart.

Su Nian couldn't wait any longer for him to stop his angry shouting. She directly told him that there was no use to complain and scold them.

"How dare you, Zheng Hua... Who do you think you are? What did you exactly do for them? Weren't you the one who kept leaving the responsibility to take care of the children to me? Let's not forget what happened now... You broke this family apart first and cheated. Don't speak like you know what it means to be a father because our family was never your focus in the first place!"

Director Zheng was stunned by her words and didn't know how to reply. He struggled to find a word to retort her accusations, but he found out in the end that what Su Nian said was true. He couldn't refute it at all!

Su Nian scoffed at his silence and no longer continued their call.

After returning to the living room where her children was sitting, she felt their gazes falling on her and she gave them an reassuring smile.

"Mom?"

The youngest daughter called her mother and Su Nian looked down at her.

"What is it, Minnie?"

Minnie stared with her child-like eyes at her mother and shook her head. "Nothing, Mom. Are we going to live her from now on?"

Su Nian glanced at her oldest son before she nodded. "Yes... Do you like it?"

"I like it! The amusement park is close and there's a pet shop downstairs. I saw many cats and dogs earlier. Can I go there tomorrow?"

Su Nian was relieved that her youngest was distracted by something and did not ask about her father. But Su Nian was also sad and hurt that because of what her husband did, this young child might have need to get used to not seeing her father for a while. The scandal might also destroy her future relationship with other kids and might get bullied.

The society was always like this. They say they could accept anything and everyone was equal, but once something was out of the ordinary in their eyes, they will be the first to criticize, get angry, and make things difficult.

While Director Zheng was experiencing the first stumble in his life, there was another person who got the worst situation out of this affair.

Lying on the floor with a tear-filled face, Gu Jiao was staring fearfully at the man sitting at the head of the table. The man looked old with his wrinkly skin and balding hair with a potbelly.

"Gu Jiao... Oh, my dearest Gu Jiao..." The old man whispered as he swirled the blood-red wine in his wine glass. "Haven't I already told you that I don't like sharing?"

Gu Jiao flinched when she heard his raspy and harsh voice. She couldn't deny what he had just said. There was indeed a time when he told her that he disliked sharing her to other people. However, at that time, Gu Jiao treated his words as nothing but a joke since the old man didn't only have her as his favorite toy. There were many others like her so she thought it didn't matter to him if she climbed on other men's bed.

But it was too late for her to remember what he said because everything was already exposed.
