Flash Marriage: The Domineering Wife-Chapter 18 Nightmare

A peal of laughter passes through her ears from above. His voice was gentle and soft.

"You mean you're still sore?" he asked and looked at her seriously. Yan Mei's eyes met his and saw his eyes full of joy. She blushed and just as she was about to look away, Lei Zhao held her head to prevent her from looking away.

Yan Mei looked at him in panic. Was he going to force her? Seeing her eyes full of panic, Lei Zhao sighed helplessly. He kissed her forehead gently and took a deep breath.

"Since you are tired, I won't do anything to you. Sleep wifey. Dream about me."

Yan Mei was stunned at what she heard him say. She thought he would force her, since it was his right. She never thought that he would hold back. She did not know how to react. She unconsciously licked her lips and wrinkled her brows slightly. Lei Zhao was bewitched as he stared at her licking her lips. His body reacted as he felt his blood boil.

He suddenly held her head and kissed her hard. After a while, he released her and smiled in satisfaction when he saw her swollen lips. He hugged her tightly in his arms. 𝙛𝙧𝙚𝒆𝘸𝚎𝙗𝒏oν𝙚𝘭.𝐜𝒐m

"Sleep."

In the middle of the night, Yan Mei had a dream. She saw a little girl playing in the grass. The girl was about five years old. She turned around when she felt someone behind her. Yan Mei stiffened when she saw the girl's face. The girl looked exactly like her when she was a child. Her eyes and nose were just like her ex husband's.

"Mommy!" The child giggled and ran into her arms.

Yan Mei bursted into tears, feeling her daughter in her arms.

"Mommy, why are you crying? Aren't you happy to see Wang Mei?" The girl's soft voice was filled with sadness. Yan Mei stiffened. She wiped her tears and forced a smile.

"No, mom is very happy. Mom is crying because she is happy to see little Wang Mei." The child kissed Yan Mei's cheeks and smiled. Her smile was so pure. Yan Mei's heart hurt when she saw her daughter's pure smile.

"Mommy, Wang Mei wants you to be happy. Don't blame yourself, mommy. Wang Mei wants to see mom smile because mom looks the best when she smiles. Promise Wang Mei, mommy, that you will be happy from now on."

Yan Mei bursted out into tears.

"Mommy, Wang Mei doesn't have a lot of time. Promise me, mommy."

Yan Mei felt the body in her arms begin to disappear. She panicked. "Mommy promises to be happy! Don't go Wang Mei! Mommy will listen to you!"

"I love you, mommy," Wang Mei whispered as she disappeared. Yan Mei bursted out in tears again.

"My baby, I love you too! My poor baby! Don't go!"

Lei Zhao woke up when he felt his shoulder dampen with tears. He turned on the light. His brows furrowed, adjusting to the light and then he began to panic when he saw tears on Yan Mei's cheeks. He heard her faintly crying out for a baby.

"My baby, don't leave mommy."

Lei Zhao shook her, trying to wake her up. Yan Mei woke up suddenly to her body being shaken by someone. Her eyes were blurred from the tears. She looked around as if she was searching for something or someone.

She held Lei Zhao's arms and asked aggressively, "Where is my baby?"

She shook him when he didn't respond. Lei Zhao was shocked seeing her like this. Her face was stained with tears and her eyes were empty. Due to the shock, it took him a while to respond.

"Yan Mei, there is no baby here. If you want, we can have a baby okay?" Lei Zhao pulled her into his arms and hugged her tightly. He was scared seeing her like this, crying out for a child that was not his. Lei Zhao had to admit, he was being selfish, but he was afraid that she would leave him one day.

He knew that she didn't love him and maybe he didn't love her too because there is no way he would fall in love with someone he had known for a few days.

He was sexually attracted to her though and he could see himself falling in love with her. It was just a matter of time, so he didn't want to lose her. Maybe somewhere in his heart, a feeling had started budding. Yan Mei began to struggle when she heard him. She pushed him away.

"No! I don't want another baby. I just want my baby," Yan Mei said and shook her head.

"Okay. We will find your baby," Lei Zhao said softly, his voice full of pampering.

Yan Mei smiled deprecating, "You don't understand…" free𝚠𝚎𝚋𝒏𝚘ѵ𝐞l.𝑐oｍ

Lei Zhao pulled her back into his arms and patted her back softly. Yan Mei silently sobbed into his chest unceasingly, her hands clenched into shaking fists. Lei Zhao held her in silence, rocking her slowly. Yan Mei felt her heart hurt so much!

Lei Zhao was heartbroken seeing her like this, all he could do was embrace her and let the torrent of her tears soak his chest. He could feel her clenched fists and understood that she was going through a lot. It seemed that this child meant a lot to her. He ran his fingers through her hair in an attempt to calm her down.

Suddenly she started hyperventilating. Lei Zhao felt the change and pulled her back. Seeing her hyperventilating, he kissed her. Instead of his normal aggressive kiss, this kiss was slow and gentle. It was the only way he could show her he wanted to comfort her and tell her that he was with her and would never leave her.

When Yan Mei's breath returned to normal, he released her and kissed her forehead gently. He then pulled her into his arms and said softly, "Sleep."

As if his voice was a spell or because she was emotionally tired, Yan Mei felt her eyelids drop. She fell into a deep sleep and this time she didn't have a nightmare.

Lei Zhao stared at her with complicated emotions. He thought, 'Baby? Does she have a child with another man? If she did have a child, where is it? With the father?'

This was his first time encountering a situation like this. He did not even know where to start. Sighing, he went to the bathroom, wet a towel, and came back to clean her face. After he was done, Lei Zhao took a pack of cigarettes and went to the balcony.

He rarely smoked. He only does it when he is in a bad mood. He picked up his phone and dialed Ye Xing's number.

"Boss," Ye Xing's voice sounded hoarse, as if just waking up from sleeping.

"I want you to investigate Miss Yan again."

"But Boss…" Ye Xing was a little embarrassed. This was the first time that he couldn't find a person's background information in S City.

Hearing his hesitation, Lei Zhao raised his brows. "What?"

"It seems that a very powerful person is protecting Miss Yan. Even I can't find anything about her except for the information about three years ago when she appeared in S City. It seems that she was the one who came to the door of the Yan family, claiming to be the lost young miss with a DNA report and a picture of Grandpa Yan's daughter who ran away because of her arranged marriage, Mr. Li. There are only four families who can hide their identity in this country, the top three families in City M and the royal family. If my guess is correct, Miss Yan must be connected to these families somehow."

Lei Zhao squeezed his brows tiredly. "Mmm."

After that, he hung up the call. He looked at the moon in the sky and fell into deep thought.

"Wifey, who are you?" Lei Zhao whispered into the quiet night.
