Married to the President novel Chapter 65

Cheng Li exchanged glances with his wife and the latter sighed. How was he supposed to persuade Junxie Li to let go? Maybe he was wrong after all not to have consulted him before taking the decision he took.

Julia walked in and took the few items in Theresa's hands away and saw that everyone's face looked gloomy, especially Junxie's who looked furious.

He had known Junxie all his life. He knew anytime he had this face and coldness, he was angry. He may go like that for hours without uttering a word to anyone.

He looked at everyone again and then turned to Theresa Mo. He squinted at her with a questioning look. The latter shrugged and looked away.

"Why's everyone quiet? Is anything the matter?" Julia asked. He looked towards his parents and then his brother. But none answered him.

Junxie Li just stood up and pulled Theresa Mo as he walked towards the exit. He didn't even wait for his parents who had come to take him to leave ahead of him.

Theresa Mo tucked at him to wait. He can't just walk out on his parents like that. He frowned and turned to look at her.

"What? Are you not leaving with me again?" Junxie Li asked with a husky voice. He was angry with Theresa too.

The latter didn't say anything but just stood quietly. He held her wrist more firmly now and walked out of the door. His look was a little rough.

His beard was grown and hasn't had a shave in days. His hair was a little too grown to be combed into its usual style.

He walked carefully but elegantly that one wouldn't know he has a wound that is yet to completely heal. He didn't say anything until he got to the car park and a bodyguard quickly held the passenger door for him to get in.

He beckoned to Theresa to go in first before he slid in after her. He was looking gloomy that the Chauffeur and bodyguards that greeted him didn't receive a response.

Theresa Mo turned and gave him a side glance and saw his face was still frowned, giving a cold vibe. She coughed slightly as if clearing her throat.

She is almost scared of his looks but somehow, she wasn't afraid of him. She moved closer, deliberately avoiding to brush his healing wounds.

Seeing Theresa Mo drew closer to him, he opened his arms and she took it as his willingness to accept her closeness.

She snuggled into him but his eyes were looking straight ahead. He seemed to be thinking of what to do next.

The chauffeur started the ignition and they drove off. She caressed his overgrown beards. "I know you are unhappy with what dad and mum did, I am uncomfortable with their decision as well.

But what can you do? You have to let it be. You have to Respect your parents before the Zu's. If you have the mother and son pair arrested again, it would look as if your parents couldn't talk you into letting the past go"Theresa coaxed.

Junxie Li didn't spare her a glance. He just remained quiet and she had no option than to be quiet for the rest of the journey home.

The Chauffeur was glancing occasionally from the rear view mirror and saw how the boss held this woman. He knew she was the mother to the boss' children but didn't know they had become so intimate with each other.

This is the first time he was holding a woman so close before him. He is not fond of riding in the same car with a woman and in rare cases of being in a car with a female business partner, he stays at an extreme end and remains quiet throughout the entire journey.

When he drove into the Mansion, He let Theresa Mo go and alighted from the car. He walked over to the Mansion without even sparing Theresa a glance.
