The Secret of Second Marriage

Chapter 225 Defeated by Reality

I never dreamed that Mr. Jiang, the business elite who always appeared strong and aloof in public and could handle any problem with ease, would reveal a vulnerable, helpless, and painful side to me, like a child.

At that moment, he seemed to return to his childhood, becoming that lonely, indifferent child who desperately longed for his father's warmth.

I said, "President Jiang, if you're sad, just cry. Crying will make you feel less bad."

"Man... I'm sorry, I'm the one who's sorry, I'm a coward."

Mr. Jiang said, "Before my father passed away, he did not meet my stepmother, but chose to meet me instead. At his bedside, he shed tears and said that he always remembered me as his son. He held my hand and told me that he had always admired me and had always been silently watching over me, his son."

He said that the reason why I have been able to develop so smoothly in the business world over the years is not only due to my own personal abilities, but also because he has been protecting and supporting me behind the scenes.

With him around, no one dares to touch me, including my stepmother. Although she has disliked me a lot over the years, she wouldn't dare to harm me secretly...

But once he leaves, my stepmother will definitely have ulterior motives, given the company involves such a huge amount of assets.

My father made me swear an oath at his bedside that, according to his will, I would take over the company he left behind, and secondly, I would marry Zeng Wanwan, the daughter of the Desheng Group.

With the Zeng family's prestigious background, they won't let anything happen to me! Man, I'm not good enough for you. I'm a cowardly and hypocritical man. I say I love you very much, and I've always thought I truly loved you.

I love you, I could give you my life, but I can't give up everything for you and become a penniless nobody!

"Stop talking, Mr. Jiang."

At that moment, I suddenly felt a sense of empathy for President Jiang.

I had the same feeling last time, when President Jiang was taken away for investigation and I couldn't contact him.

His father, that cunning old fox in the business world, approached me and made this request: if I could take the blame for President Jiang, he would agree to let me be with President Jiang.

But I refused.

This time, President Jiang made a choice between me and him as the heir. He chose to inherit the entire Jiang Group. In order to compete with his stepmother and younger brother, he obeyed his father's arrangement and accepted the marriage alliance.

I said, "President Jiang, I'm actually very grateful that you were able to tell me the truth. Our relationship has come to this point, and you're still willing to be honest with me. No matter what outsiders think of you, in my eyes you are a true gentleman."

Your choice was right. From your perspective, giving me up and choosing a more secure and prosperous future was a worthwhile deal.

pretty good.

We were never from the same world; I had this feeling a long time ago.

There was a part of my life's journey that I'm grateful for, and thank you for being there for me. Without you, I might not have been able to recover from that broken and failed marriage...

"Congratulations, Mr. Jiang. Goodbye."

"Man, please don't hang up the phone. Please don't ignore me, okay?"

President Jiang was completely helpless against me. The usually calm man suddenly became anxious and said, "Perhaps there is another way. Give me three years. Three years to help me reorganize the group and clean up the mess left by my father..."

And my stepmother, after I've driven them all out of Beijing, and once everything is safe, will you come back to me?

"I'm sorry, Mr. Jiang, I can't do that."

I say.

Suddenly, President Jiang panicked, as if he was terrified of losing me. He said to me, "Man, I actually love you. Why is God torturing me like this? Why can't people who love each other be together?"

Why? Why?

"Because we are the same kind of people, President Jiang, you and I are the same, you actually love yourself more."

I coldly and ruthlessly exposed this cruel reality of human nature.

President Jiang was suddenly stunned.

I felt that since things had come to this point, there was nothing more to say, so I decisively hung up the phone.

After I hung up the phone, I found a secluded corner on set and cried for a long time. Then I called Juan and told her about my situation.

Juan said, "Man, why don't you agree to get back together with President Jiang in three years? Maybe by then there won't be any obstacles between you two."

"Juan, I can agree to Mr. Jiang's request, but what about his wife? Am I supposed to hurt another innocent woman for the sake of my own marriage? I don't want to do that."

Although I'm in a lot of pain, I believe the sun will still rise tomorrow, and I will still be the strong Jiang Man. Nothing can break me. I will live well and film well.

I say.
