MY UNKNOWN HUSBAND, VOLUME 2 - Season 4 Episode 66

While John was waiting for the elevator, he happened to meet Vivian coming downstairs.

“Mr. Shi? Are you going upstairs?” Vivian asked in surprise.

“Yes.” Then he entered the elevator and pressed the button. He didn’t even give her a glance.

She didn’t seem to be bothered though. Instead, she gave a weird smile and watched the elevator doors shut. Everything was going according to her plan.

John would go back to his room and sleep deeply, unaware of what would happen next.

Standing at the doors of the elevator, Vivian took her phone out of her bag, and lifted it to her ear.

No one called her.

She pretended to be answering a phone call.

She was just putting on an act for the surveillance cameras. They were recording everything so she had to put on a show to avoid suspicion.

“Okay, I’m waiting for the elevator,” Vivian said to herself. She put her phone in her bag and pressed the elevator button.

She stepped into the elevator and went back to Jessica’s room.

Vivian got to the room a short while later and knocked on the door.

Jessica strode over to the door to see who it was.

“Vivi?” Jessica was confused. “Why are you back?”

“I just saw Brother John. He didn’t look well. I think he is sick. Should we go check on him?” Vivian asked worriedly.

Jessica was immediately smothered with nerves just hearing that there could be something wrong with her brother. She took Vivian’s hand and marched off to go to John’s room.

Vivian followed in tow nervously. When they got into the elevator, Vivian took her phone out and seemed to be messaging someone.

She only sent a few words. “The second step.”

“Vivi, are you sure? Is John really sick?” Jessica clung onto Vivian’s hand nervously.

Vivian locked her phone screen and comforted Jessica, “Don’t worry. Let’s go and have a look first. Maybe I was just being paranoid.”

“I know he has been very busy lately.” Jessica sighed. “It must be because of Nina. She is a princess. He’s worried that our family doesn’t match up to hers. He shouldn’t have married her. She’s caused so much trouble.”

Jessica seemed to be speaking ill of Nina but she really didn’t mean it. She was too anxious to think about what she was saying.

Vivian didn’t say anything.

As they exited the elevator and neared John’s suite, Jessica’s phone started ringing.

She didn’t recognize the number so she hung up.

The same number called again.

“Jessica, you’d better answer it. Maybe there’s something urgent. It’ll only take a second,” Vivian urged.

Jessica answered the phone. “Who’s this?”

“Ms. Shi, I’m sorry to call you so late. I have something for you. I don’t know if you are interested.” The voice that came through seemed to be almost robotic. It was difficult to make out the person’s real voice or even the gender.

She knew this was a scam so Jessica decisively said, “No.”

“Divorce.” Upon hearing that, Jessica was overtaken by anxiety. She didn’t even her father know that Jason and she had been divorced. How did this person know about her divorce?

The person continued, “Ms. Shi, don’t be nervous. Only I know that you have been divorced. Just come and talk to me and I won’t let your secret out.”

Jessica’s breathing intensified as her finger tips turned pale. “Right away.” She hung up the phone and turned to Vivian, saying, “Vivi, I have something urgent to deal with. Please go check on John for me. If it’s too much trouble, call Nina to take care of him.”

“Okay. Just go ahead,” replied Vivian. “Thank you.” Then Jessica left in a hurry.
As Jessica was leaving, triumph flashed through Vivian’s eyes.

The second step of her plan was complete.

She made it look like Jessica took her to John’s suite and then left. All of this was recorded by the surveillance cameras. When they checked the surveillance videos, they would only suspect that this was Jessica’s doing.

Vivian turned around, took two steps forward and stopped in front of John’s door. She opened the door with the card key she had prepared beforehand.

The curtains of the room were drawn. John was lying in the bed, sound asleep.

Sitting on the edge of the bed, Vivian looked at him quietly with her flushed face.

“Brother John, you can’t push me away this time.” Vivian gently caressed John’s face, her eyes beaming affectionately. She began undressing herself slowly.

She took off every last thing, including her underwear and nonchalantly threw them on the floor.

Before she lay in the bed, she took out her phone and sent a message to another number.

“The third step.”

The first step of Vivian’s plan was preparing the wine glass. The second step was to get Jessica to leave. The third step was to get caught laying in the bed with John.

Of course, what happened in the next suite was also part of her plan.

The doors to the two suites were left slightly ajar, with only the silent breaths being heard.

Meanwhile, the guests in the banquet hall were waiting for Emma and James to make a speech.

Emma stood next to her fiance, feeling like she was the center of attention. Her family and friends proudly looked on at her.

She was so nervous that her palms were sweating. That didn’t subdue her happiness though. She was so elated that she didn’t know what to do with herself.

Biting her lips, Emma glanced at the crowd and saw Harrison and Adela.

Holding Harrison’s arm tightly, Adela was sneering at Emma, almost challenging her.

Emma used to take it to heart but she just shrugged it off now.

Harrison never loved Adela.

He only cared about himself.

Emma just felt lucky that she had met James. Some people didn’t need a long time to make their minds up about marriage. Love at first sight was all she needed.

Emma took a deep breath and confidently said, “James, I would like to spend the rest of my life with you.”

“It’d be my pleasure.” James stepped forward, bent over and kissed her on the cheek.

“Wow!” Haley shouted, followed by laughter and applause.

With a smile on her face and a malicious look in her eyes, Sheila turned around and left.

So did Harrison. He pulled Adela’s hand, turned around and left.

The moment he turned around, his eyes turned red.

Ultimately, he had lost Emma.

Nina said in dreamy daze, “Honey, They’re so sweet.”

Without noticing that John had left, she leaned back as if he was there and fell down.

Everyone was so immersed in this moment that nobody noticed her blunder. Even Michelle was too distracted to notice.

The only person who had his concentration fixed on Nina was Noah. He saw her falling and rushed over to catch her.

“Nini, are you okay?”

“Noah.” With half of her body leaning against Noah’s chest, Nina stood up and looked around, but couldn’t see John anywhere. “When did John leave?”

Noah propped Nina up, withdrew his hands and said, “I didn’t see him.”

“I’ll give him a call.” Nina called several times, but John didn’t answer. She went to elevator and was about to go look for John back in the room.

As soon as she got out of the elevator, a hotel waitress slumped to the floor in front of the door to her room with a scream.

“Ah!”

The sudden shout shocked Nina senseless. She rushed into the room only to find a bunch of clothes scattered on the floor. As she looked deeper into the room, she saw the horrific sight of John in the bed with another woman.

Nina’s phone fell to the floor.

The sound didn’t wake the two people up.
