The CEO's Wife and First Love
Chapter 642 Zekai has changed
Nara had actually noticed Zekai's changes a long time ago, but due to the lack of solid evidence, she could not be completely sure of her intuition. Despite this, her sixth sense was extremely sharp, as if she could see through the subtle changes deep in Zekai's heart.
In the past, Zekai always called Nara frequently to share his life with her. However, since this business trip, the situation has changed dramatically.
Now, Nora has to take the initiative to call Zekai, but he no longer responds as actively as he did in the past. What makes Nora even more suspicious is that when she asks Zekai when he will return to the United States, he is always vague and makes excuses, and never gives a clear answer.
At this time, Nara thought of Zekai's mother, and she wanted to call her to ask and see how she would react.
After a while, the phone was connected. "Hello, Auntie, how are you?" Zekai's mother was very happy to hear that it was Nara's voice.
"Nara, the child is you. Dad and I are fine." Dad is fine. Nara was suddenly shocked. Isn't Zekai's father still in jail? Why are they talking about Zekai's father?
"My son, this is really hard for you!" Zekai's mother's voice revealed a trace of emotion and relief, "Now your father is recovering well at home, thanks to you for raising money to bail him out."
Listening to what Zekai's mother said, Nara couldn't help but feel a strange feeling in her heart. Her understanding of Zekai made her know that such a thing was definitely not a trivial matter for Zekai, but he didn't even tell her such a big thing.
Nara frowned slightly, and she began to recall the recent moments with Zekai. There didn't seem to be anything unusual, but now that she thought about it, some of Zekai's behaviors might have reasons.
She couldn't help feeling a little lost and confused. Why didn't Zekai tell her such an important thing? Was it because he felt she couldn't help, or was there some other reason?
Nara decided to find an opportunity to have a good talk with Zekai and find out the reason. After all, they were so close that there shouldn't be such a concealment.
"Oh, that's good. Aunt Zekai has been in China for so long, does he come home often?" Nora is a very smart person. She did not ask her future mother-in-law directly, but asked tentatively.
Zekai's mother smiled and said, "He, isn't Zekai with you? He hasn't come back."
Nora's heart skipped a beat and she asked, "Auntie, it's been so long since Zekai went back to China. He didn't come home."
Zekai's mother sighed, "I'm not sure either. He only called a few times. When I asked him, he didn't tell me that he had returned to China. But when I asked him, he seemed to have become very silent for a while, and he refused to say anything even when I asked him."
Nara felt more and more uneasy, and asked tentatively: "Auntie, will he meet someone special in China?" Zekai's mother thought for a moment and said: "I don't know about that. When I asked him, he said it was about work. He didn't tell me. Nara, has something happened to Zekai?"
After hanging up the phone, Nara was full of doubts and worries. She decided to wait for Zekai to return home and ask him about the matter in person. At this time, her phone vibrated. It was a message from Zekai, saying that he had to stay in China for a while.
Nara looked at the message, her fingers tightly gripping the phone, and secretly vowed to make Zekai confess everything this time.
Nora immediately sent a WeChat message, I think you are staying in the country and don’t want to go back to the United States.
Not long after, Nara's WeChat message came back as fast as lightning: "How can you talk like that? I'm really too busy with work and can't leave! Nara, aren't you also a working person, why can't you understand me? Why did you suddenly become so unreasonable?"
Seeing Nara's reply, Zekai's anger rose immediately, and he immediately replied: "How dare you say that I am unreasonable? You are the one who is full of lies and you are blaming others! It is obviously your own problem, but you insist on blaming me and saying that I am unreasonable. You really allow the officials to set fires but not the people to light lamps!"
In this way, Nara and Zekai started a fierce war of words on the phone, with both sides going back and forth, neither side giving in. Every message was like a sharp sword, piercing the other's heart, and neither of them was willing to bow their heads and admit defeat first.
As time went on, their arguments became more intense and their words more sharp. What started out as just a few minor frictions gradually turned into an uncontrollable storm due to their mutual stubbornness and obstinacy.
This was their first quarrel. Although they had had some minor conflicts in the past, they were all resolved quickly. However, this time seemed unusual. Both of them were overwhelmed by their emotions and completely lost their rationality.
In the past, when they quarreled, Zekai would usually give in to Nara, but this time, Zekai not only did not give in, but also said some unpleasant words, which made Nara very sad. What happened to him? Zekai has changed, and Nara seems to not recognize him anymore.
A piercing pain suddenly rose from Nora's heart like a surging wave, and she couldn't help but think of every detail of her and Zekai's journey together.
At that time, Zekai was still a poor boy, and it was Nora who chose him when he was at his lowest point and stayed by his side. In order to help Zekai get back on his feet, Nora put in a lot of effort and hardship.
Not only does she have to work hard to support the two of them, but she also has to silently support Zekai to return to school to continue his studies. She gets up early and goes to bed late every day, taking care of all the affairs at home, and at the same time encouraging Zekai to study hard and cheering him up.
Finally, with Nara's careful care and encouragement, Zekai successfully passed the exam and got his diploma. However, Zekai now seems to have forgotten all of this, and all the sacrifices and efforts Nara made for him.
Thinking of this, Nora's heart felt like it was being cut by a knife, and tears rolled down from her eyes like pearls that had broken off the string.
I want to call him and ask him. Nara picked up the phone without hesitation and dialed Li Zekai's number. However, Li Zekai was not in the room at this time, but went out. His phone lay quietly on the table in the room, and no one cared about it.
At this moment, Wanqing happened to walk into the room. She saw Nara's caller ID flashing on Li Zekai's phone screen. Wanqing hesitated and didn't know whether she should answer the call. After all, she and Nara didn't have much friendship, and she wasn't sure whether Li Zekai would let her answer his call.
So Wanqing decided to let the phone ring for a while and see what happened. However, Nora seemed very persistent. The phone kept ringing, as if urging someone to answer it. Wanqing looked at the flashing screen and gradually became curious.
Suddenly, a bold idea flashed in Wanqing's mind. She thought, maybe answering this call can help her learn something about Li Zekai? Although it might not be appropriate to do so, curiosity still drove her to finally press the answer button.
"Hello, how are you?" Wanqing picked up the phone and answered it.
"Hey, who are you? Why is Zekai's phone in your hand...
