Before he stepped into Delia's honey trap, Kenneth had always thought that the one his heart lost to was another woman, who had passed away. In this love game, he thought he took the upper hand. However, he became the one who lost everything. Bankruptcy, miscarriage, and divorce... He thought his revenge was successful, but all of these were just part of her plan. When the truth was unveiled, he finally learned how much he fell for her. The conspiracy behind this love game was beyond his imagination. All is fair in love and war, and he already had no way to quit.
The night wind blew the clear water surface of the swimming pool, creating ripples. A woman's chiffon skirt was fluttering in the night breeze.
All of a sudden, the petite woman with a curvy figure lost her balance and fell into the water.
She struggled and struggled, and tried to swim, but finally she failed. She screamed and made a lot of big splashes. She struggled randomly, and her clear little face was full of panic. Her fair skin, as jade like skin in the clear water, looked even more smooth and delicate.
"Help! Help!" Delia Mu opened her mouth to call for help. She swallowed a few mouthfuls of water and tried to open her eyes and look at the slender figure by the pool.
The man by the pool stared coldly, and his handsome face was full of alienation. When he approached, the water reflected his tall and slender figure. His angular side face was covered by the bright moon, with a bit of coldness.
"I said I'm not interested." His thin lips were perfect and sexy, but his voice was as cold as ice.
"Help me...I..." Another few mouthfuls of water poured in her mouth, and Delia Mu's face turned red. She was about to suffocate.
"Oh, please. Don't act like you didn't deserve that." The man left coldly, and the edge of the pool returned to silence again. The woman in the pool gradually stopped struggling, and her body suddenly began to convulse violently.
As the night breeze blew, Kenneth Gu left the hot spring pool and looked back. Seeing that the woman behind him hadn't followed him, he cursed angrily, turned around and walked quickly back. Looking at the calm water, he rubbed his forehead with his hand in headache. "Women are really troublesome," he murmured.
Then he jumped gracefully into the pool and skillfully swam downstream.
At the bottom of the pool, Delia Mu was in a coma. She closed her eyes, looked sweet and quiet, and her red lips were slightly open. The lake rippled again. Kenneth Gu swam to the edge of the lake with her in his arms. When he was about to throw her onto the lake, Delia Mu suddenly coughed and woke up. She swallowed two mouthfuls of water. As soon as she saw Kenneth Gu, she was so angry that she struggled violently and kicked him.
"Why did you kick me? How ungrateful you are!" Kenneth Gu pursed his lips and pulled her hair. He wanted to pull her off his body in disgust, but Delia Mu couldn't swim. She put her arms around his waist with all her strength. The two pushed each other in the water.
As the two of them approached, the muscles all over Kenneth Gu's body tightened. He couldn't understand this strange and uncomfortable feeling.
Delia Mu felt like weeping but had no tears, which made her heart beat very fast. His breath was even on her face, warm and delicate, making her itchy.
"Hey, let go of me..." Delia Mu took the opportunity to get rid of Kenneth Gu and climbed to the edge of the pool with her back to him.
Frowning, Kenneth Gu thought, 'There was such chemistry...that I couldn't control myself.' It seemed that he really couldn't stand it anymore, and the woman beside him was not so annoying. So Kenneth Gu stretched out his long arm and held Delia Mu in his arms.
He suddenly stretched out his hand.
And Delia Mu could feel his hands on her skin.
"Hey! What are you doing? Don't touch me!"
Delia Mu was shocked and pounded with her little hands. She lowered her head and saw his... "Ah!!!" she screamed and rolled down from the bed.
When she opened her eyes, she felt sweat on her forehead.
It turned out that she was in a dream.
Wearing slippers, Delia Mu went to the bathroom to brush her teeth. Her legs were sore and weak.
Although that event had happened a few days ago, when she thought of it now, Delia Mu's face was still flushed. She was so angry that she wanted to tear him into pieces, and the pain in the lower half of her body was unbearable.
After she ran away that day, she directly went back to her dormitory to take a shower. She didn't tell anyone about it. Because even if she said it, no one would believe it.
Who was Kenneth Gu?
She knew too much about this man.
Because this man had become her newly married husband.
Last month, Kenneth Gu, the CEO of the global multinational group, was elected as the man with the most sexy facial features in the world by the fashion magazine. He was proficient in the six languages. He graduated from Harvard University and was praised as "future Picasso." In addition, his mysterious growth experience made the outside world more curious.
It was said that he grew up in an orphanage, and was adopted by a French couple when he was five years old. After his foster parents died, he inherited the title of his adoptive father, and became the youngest Duke in French history.
Three years ago, he was found back by the Gu Family and took over the position of CEO of the global group, but he was not the heir of the Gu Family. The heir of the Gu Family was his halfblooded brother, Bertram Gu.
However, a month later, Delia Mu's life had undergone a tremendous change. From then on, she could no longer be separated from the name of Kenneth Gu.
A month later, Delia Mu nervously walked into the gate of the Gu Family's house. The luxurious European style castle, like the luxurious palace in Europe, was overflowing with lights. There were all Victor style buildings and neatly trimmed garden everywhere. She stepped on the soft lawn, took a deep breath, looked up at the well carved furnishings around, and couldn't help but feel nervous.
Three days ago, she got the marriage certificate with Kenneth Gu.
Because a month ago, she was thrown to the wolves by her father!
Her father was a man who would do anything for money.
