After a week in Barcelona, Jonas finally managed to endure the pressure caused by his wife's crazy behavior, even though they were in separate rooms. However, the woman still managed to do everything without shame. Perhaps only Chelsea enjoyed their honeymoon, a honeymoon without 'bedroom intimacy'.
Beijing International Airport became the final destination after a twelve-hour flight. Chelsea still looked energetic and beautiful, while her husband looked tired and flat, they pulled their respective suitcases.
"Jonas Li, can you wait here? I want to go to the toilet."
Jonas let out an annoyed sigh. "Go ahead. A maximum of fifteen minutes, if you don't return after that, I'll make sure you stay here."
"Okay, okay. Please hold my suitcase, yeah! Don't let the gifts for your parents get damaged." She emphasized her words before walking away to find the toilet, while Jonas pulled both suitcases towards a bench in the waiting area, he sat down and then opened his phone to call Vincent to pick them up.
A woman had just arrived at the airport, she intended to leave China after her relationship with her boyfriend ended, she needed a place far away with a different atmosphere to forget her five-year boyfriend.
Although they had tried, their different social classes always complicated things. However, the woman's steps suddenly stopped when she saw her ex-boyfriend was also at the airport. The man in the black jacket sat in the waiting area chair while making a call, two large suitcases were next to him.
"JONAS." Shirley's handbag suddenly fell to the floor, she was shocked to respond to his presence. Jonas looked back, he showed an expression similar to Shirley's and walked towards her.
Although his phone was still connected, Jonas quickly put it in his jacket pocket. "Shirley, what are you doing here? Are you leaving?"
The way he looked at Shirley was very gentle, his tone was also very soft, clearly different from how he treated Chelsea.
Shirley's tears fell, since Jeremy Li announced to the press about the marriage between his youngest son and another woman, Shirley and the man hadn't met again, even though there was no farewell spoken from their lips.
However, Shirley understood her place, so she had to retreat and distance herself. Especially since the marriage between Jonas and Chelsea was publicly broadcast and became a hot topic for days on Weibo. Many people mocked Shirley for being unlucky.
"Hey, you're really leaving, huh?" Jonas pulled her into a hug, he even forgot that Chelsea was still around, he forgot that he was a married man, but instead hugged another woman and gave her attention. "You're going to leave me?"
"What am I supposed to hold on to here, Jonas? You're already with someone else, I need to heal myself."
Her tears fell harder, she let Jonas's jacket get wet from her tears. "Sorry, forgive me for not being able to be firm. I just-"
"I know, you always feel indebted to the family that raised you, right? I understand. Don't remind me again, I just want to leave and be okay."
"Shirley."
From a distance, a pair of eyelids with thick eyelashes had been watching them for several seconds. Chelsea wasn't angry, it wasn't her nature to be upset about other people's bad luck, she instead smiled in response to the nonsensical conversation between the separated couple.
"How tragic. I'll give you a little memento." She didn't intend to approach them, but instead took out her phone and opened the camera, she took a photo of them still hugging each other tightly. "This moment is so sweet, I'll send it to Jackson."
Then, Chelsea made a call. "Have you seen the photo I sent? Make sure it's trending on Weibo this afternoon. I want to give a sweet surprise to the separated couple." Chelsea smiled in satisfaction, of course, the 'sweet surprise' in her mind was very different from other people's expectations.
Chelsea waited patiently until Shirley walked away from Jonas, the man looked very sad when their hands parted.
"Hmph! I may be the third party in everyone's eyes, but I'm the main character in my life. You weak people will only become trash someday." Chelsea walked towards them with a wide smile.
"Sorry, but I'm not late at all, not even fifteen minutes." She looked at her watch. However, Jonas refused to respond, he was too gloomy after letting Shirley go. Without saying anything, he walked past Chelsea while pulling his own suitcase.
"Pfft! He must be very angry because his girlfriend left China. I can still make you even angrier, Jonas Li!"

"Finally, you're back in Beijing. I've missed you so much, Chelsea." Elena Zhao, Jonas Li's adoptive mother immediately hugged Chelsea as soon as her daughter-in-law arrived at the house. She had loved Chelsea since finding out that Chelsea Moon was the sole heir of Eleven York, which led all international banks in Europe, flattering and licking other people's wealth was Elena's expertise.
"Thank you for missing me, Mom. I bought some gifts for you and Dad, I hope you'll like them."
"Ah, you shouldn't have done that, Chelsea. Your presence in this house is already the most valuable gift for the Li Family." Jonas grew colder, since being in the car he had been quiet, so Chelsea only chatted with Vincent. Jonas's mood had been terrible since meeting Shirley.
"Jonas, you-"
"I'm tired. I want to rest, Mom." Jonas quickly walked away, letting the servant handle his suitcase.
"Hm, okay. He's always like that. Did Jonas ignore you in Barcelona, Chelsea?" The woman shook her head.
"Don't worry, Mom. Once I've trapped him, I'll tie him up tightly, he won't be able to escape from me again." They laughed cheerfully.
"Look, I've taken photos of our moments at several places. Mommy has to see them."
"Aren't you tired after such a long trip? Should we go to a sauna and pamper ourselves?"
"Great idea." Chelsea agreed with her mother-in-law's wish. "I'll change my clothes, then we'll go to the sauna. Please wait for me, okay, Mom?"
"Okay, Chelsea. I also need to get ready."
Their relationship was very harmonious, like honeybees and flowers. Chelsea's parents' wealth was very tempting, which was why the Li Family quickly agreed to the business marriage of their youngest son. Jonas had always been the family's trump card, even though his two older brothers also held important positions in the Emerald Group, but their way of thinking and intelligence couldn't surpass Jonas.
At first, Jordan Li-Jonas's older brother-was the first option as the groom for the business marriage, but Chelsea firmly refused and wanted Jonas as her partner.
"There's no special reason, I just feel that our fate was destined from the start. So, I really want it." Chelsea said those words when asked why she chose Jonas Li, which made the man furious.
