Chapter 20~

Don't forget to comment, another chapter will be up soon.


"Sir, Mr. Xiao is here to see you." Simon's assistant said.

Simon was holding his head as he was experiencing severe headaches and was not in good health and didn't want to meet Zhan.

As he knew that the moment Zhan will see him he was going to ask him a million questions and possibly force him to talk.

So he spoke, "Tell him to leave."

But before anyone can reply the door opened and Zhan walked in, "I am afraid that's not going to happen?"

Simon just gave up and put his head on the table, "What do you want?"

Zhan took a chair and pulled it before Simon and sat down, "I have absolutely no interest in interfering with anyone's personal life or invading anyone's boundary,"  except one person's, " But when I see that it is affecting your other parts of life I can't turn a blind eye to it.

I care about you Simon... so I want to know what's bothering you? What the hell is going on?"

Simon sighed his headache was getting worse and worse, these past few days the stress was taking a toll on his health.

And he just can't talk about it to anyone, he had no friends, even before he was only friends with Zhan and after his friendship with Zhan was broken he was left with no friends and he never even tried to make friends.

As for his father, Simon only talks business with him and nothing else it's not like he thinks that William won't listen to him but Simon is always scared that his father might look down on him, he might consider him weak.

Simon looked at Zhan, he was the only person he can talk to, so he cleared his throat and started to tell Zhan about his problem even though they had no contact for ten years Simon and Zhan still had a great bond.

"It happened four months ago." Simon spoke, "After two years of our marriage." Zhan heard it attentively.

Simon came home after a long day at work.

He actually came home after six-months, six months of exhausting work and constant meetings and endless paperwork, he was dead tired.

But all of this was important since his company suffered a huge blow and it had hit the rock bottom and Simon has to work very hard to build it back up. He has to work harder to be at the top again. And now his company was finally back on track and at the.

He came to the house where he was living with his husband Zhehan.

He had gone to work for six months and finally, his hard work paid off as he got a good deal.

And these whole six months he was so busy that he didn't even get the time to talk to Zhehan.

Even Zhehan had stopped calling him Simon thought that Zhehan must be mad at him for ignoring him.

But now that he was back he willing to make it up for Zhehan and pamper him but Simon's heart dropped to his stomach and his stomach clenched as he walked ahead, towards his bedroom.

As he saw the scattered clothes on the ground and the other pair of shoes that he was sure didn't belong to Zhehan as he never wore shoes of this brand.

As he walked ahead towards the room, the door to the room was open and a faint light came from it, Simon's hands shook and his heart was beating so loudly that he thought that might get a heart attack as he went ahead but before he can open the door.

Someone else opened the door, someone who was not Zhehan, someone whom Simon didn't know, when the man looked at Simon he just smiled and walked away after he picked his clothes.

Simon froze at his place, his eyes wide and his mouth agape, he had stopped breathing and his blood ran cold, as he looked at Zhehan's naked, Zhehan was sitting on the edge of the bed with his back facing Simon.

Ans Simon can see the red marks, After the man was gone Simon walked in the room with shaky legs, his eyes were filled with tears as he said, "What was that?"

Zhehan didn't reply he didn't even turn to look at him, and Simon asked again, this time louder, "WHAT WAS THAT ALL ABOUT! ZHEHAN ANSWER ME!"

Simon was hyperventilating by this time, Zhehan flinched before he finally stood up and wore his shorts before he faced Simon, his face had tears running down his cheeks.

And there was so much pain in them, Zhehan smiled he actually smiled, "It's all your fault, everything is your fault."

 He said and Simon spoke, "So you cheating on me, sleeping with some other person on our bed in our room is my fault?"

"YES, IT IS!" Zhehan said, as he laughed he kept his hand on his head "It's all your fault Simon everything is your fault and I hate you so much for it." 

"So you are not going to explain anything to me."

Zhehan just stared at him with dead eyes, "Cheating has no excuse."

Simon hadn't realized that his tears were flowing down his cheeks as he said, "After that everything changed Zhehan left the house for days and I didn't contact him I was still not over the fact that he cheated on me, and neither  he contacted me.

I wanted to forget it and think that nothing happened but I cannot since Zhehan accepted it from his own mouth that he cheated on me." Simon spoke his head ache to worsen and he felt nauseated. Remembering this incident just worsened everything.

Zhan heard everything quietly at the end he was only looking at Simon with rage, this was the first time he had seen Simon cry.

Simon was the splitting image of William and if Zhehan's cheating can break a guy like Simon then it was obvious that he loved Zhehan a lot.

Zhan never loved his girlfriend, yes he liked her and found her idea and he did care for her and was willing to try to be good to her, but she wasn't that important to Zhan that her absence will affect him.

Neither she was important enough for Zhan to leave his work or go to any lengths to be with her, yes he felt bad when she cheated on him as it hurt his pride and ego and feelings but he was able to get over her in a few days, this made Zhan realized that he never loved her that much.

However Simon was different unlike Zhan Simon didn't do casual relationships he believe that dating was stupid, one should only date the person they liked and then get married to them.

Besides Simon never wasted his time on casual dating and relationships and from what Zhan had heard Simon and Zhehan's relationship was very strong and of course they have to be in love otherwise Simon would never marry him.

Zhan saw Simon grabbing his head, "Are you okay? does your headache?"

"I am fine," Simon spoke but when he tried to get up he stumbled back thankfully Zhan caught him before he can fall back.

"Simon!"

Zhan helped him sit down and gave him water, "What's wrong with you?"

"My head hurts." he said, "I have a pill in first aid bring it to me."

Zhan did as he was told and Simon took out his pills and ate them.

"Why don't you divorce him?" Zhan spoke.

"I thought... but I can't." Simon spoke before he laughed bitterly, "I am so pathetic... I am still in love with him."

Zhan clenched his fists, "He cheated on you for god's sake Simon, he is clearly not in love with you."

Simon drank water, "I can't do it Zhan, I can't bring it up Zhan... I just can't."

Zhan looked at Simon with disbleif how can a man like Simon with a heart of stone, who stubborn like a bull, determined and passionate as hell and highly rational can be reduced to this pathetic state?

Zhan had no words he was speechless, he never fell in love like Simon so of course he didn't understand him, "I'll tell your dad."

This mad Simon look at him and he immediately go up and grabbed his hand, "No you won't Zhan, my dad will be disappointed he will think that it was my fault he might even consider me pathetic since it was I who was cheated on him.

I don't want him to think that I am weak and he might destroy Zhehan."

"As he should, and Simon I know your father he loved you more than anything he won't think like that."

"No, Zhan you don't know him, if he gets pissed he won't listen to me and ruin Zhehan's life his career... another reason for me not to divorce because my dad won't let me unless I tell him the reason." Simon spoke but felt headache so he clutched his head.

Zhan face plamed and made him sit, before sighing he wanted to slap some sense into Simon but seeing his health he didn't, "I won't tell him. I won't tell anyone... but Simon... you cannot go back to how you used to me... not after getting cheated like this... your relationship is already over."

Simon closed his eyes and clenched his fists when he heard this he already knew that, Zhan however grabbed his arm, "Come... let's get you home you need rest."

"I don't want to go home." Simon said weakly.

Zhan sighed, "Then come to my home and rest there..."

Simon didn't resist and listened to Zhan.

Author's note: What would you do if you were Simon? Should cheaters be given any chance? like Zhan's gf?

Another chapter will be posted soon.
