After Divorce, She Married a Billionaire

Chapter 82 Childhood Trauma



Nancy closed the door for the second time, she couldn’t help but pinch Su Yan’s hand. Su Yan’s eyes turned red and she looked like she was about to cry.

I pulled Nancy ‘s arm and said, “You’re just here to get something! Don’t do this…”

Nancy glared at her angrily, turned back to the living room, and cursed loudly: “Get out of here after you take it! Don’t pollute the air in my house!”

I opened the door and Su Yan came into the house holding her pinched arm. I didn’t know what to say. After all, there was nothing much to say about my identity. I nodded at her and smiled awkwardly.

Su Yan went up to the second floor and came out with a document in her hand. She walked down the stairs slowly, stood at the door of her house, and said to Nancy on the sofa , “Yueyue… your dad said that he asked his sister-in-law to make some nutritious fast food and put it in the refrigerator. He went home last night and saw that you had been eating takeout, so he prepared it for you. When you are hungry…”

Before Su Yan finished her words, Nancy responded impatiently, “Have you had enough of pretending? If you have, then get out. This is not a big stage for you to perform. If you like to perform, go to my dad’s place! Didn’t he buy you a villa a while ago? It should be nice to be a liberated serf singing!”

Su Yan was so hurt by these words that she couldn’t even raise her head. She turned around silently, began to put on her shoes slowly, and then opened the door slightly.

From opening the door to closing the door and leaving, the decibels of this series of actions are very low.

When the house was quiet again, I sat next to Nancy , touched her shoulder and said, “Okay, don’t be angry. It’s not worth it for you to be angry because of her!”

Nancy sat on the sofa with her back to me, her head resting on the sofa, and said weakly, “I know it’s not worth it, but if she hadn’t appeared, my mother wouldn’t have left me, and I wouldn’t have become the bad-tempered person I am today.”

Nancy turned her head, her eyes fragile, ” Candice , maybe you don’t believe me, but before I was fourteen, I was not like this. I used to be very obedient and honest, and my mother and I are very similar in character, the kind that… if you get mad at me, I won’t refute you forcefully.” She lowered her head and smiled, “But… ever since I saw my mother die in the artificial lake with my own eyes, I can never go back to being the way I was when I was a kid…”

Nancy said this, her eyebrows drooped slightly, and I seemed to see a little bit of crystal in the distance.

Yes, if this happened to me, my temperament would change drastically and I would be filled with hatred because of my mother’s death.

I finally understood why Nancy had always been so impatient and unwilling to suffer any loss since I met her. It was because she was too fragile. She was afraid that anything dangerous would hurt her, so before those dangerous people and things showed their true colors, she would fight back against the invisible harm.

She has an overly strong desire to protect herself, and the reason for this is that she suffered indelible childhood trauma.

I am Nancy ‘s friend, so I naturally stand on her side. Although I don’t know Su Yan, no matter what, she broke up a once harmonious family, so I can’t have a good impression of her.

was accompanying Nancy to recover, I stroked the little hamster in my hand from time to time. When Nancy stopped being upset, I held the chubby little hamster and said to her, “Are you going to throw this little guy away or not? If you don’t like it, I’ll just put it in the garden.”

Nancy still stayed far away from me. She pointed at the hamster and said, “Go get a cage and put it up! I’m going to change my clothes now.”

“What are you going to do again?”

Nancy raised her neck and said, “Return it to its original owner! I can’t resist such a big gift! I have to return it!”

I snorted coldly, “I’m afraid you have other intentions than staying at the bar! They clearly used mice to disgust you, but you insisted on using the mouse’s gimmick to meet them!”

Nancy immediately stopped at the corner of the stairs on the second floor, pointed at me viciously and said, ” Candice, let me tell you! You know too much! If we ever break up, I will definitely choke you to death with poison! You are simply a worm in my stomach!”

I stuck out my tongue. “When you put on your makeup later, don’t put on too much. The lighting in the Encounter Cafe is not dim at all. If you put on too much foundation, you’ll easily look like a ghost!”

Nancy hissed and waved her fist at me, ” Thank you fucking much !”

After Nancy had dressed herself up, I helped her pick out a fairly gentle dress so that she looked somewhat feminine.

Nancy and I drove to Encounter. When the car stopped at the door of the cafe, a Scottish Fold cat was squatting outside the store.

Nancy got out of the car, squatted at the door and scratched the cat’s head, then turned back to me and said, “Do you remember that when Lingnan was in college, he really liked cats, and he still has a cat now!”

I curled my lips and said, “Well, he has started raising mice now.”

Nancy pursed her lips in despair, tightly closed her eyes, and then opened them again, “Can you please not pour cold water on me!”

I shrugged, “Come on in, we have some business to attend to!”

Nancy and I entered the store, the male waiter at the bar immediately gasped at us. I guess Nancy and I were already on his store’s blacklist.

Nancy walked straight to the bar, slammed her handbag on the marble counter, and said, “Where’s the boss? Let him come out!”

The male waiter said in a cowardly manner: “Well, well, well… the boss… is not here. Yes, not here…”

Nancy’s eyes widened and she warned, “Say that again?”

The male waiter immediately turned around and rushed into the kitchen with his legs limp as if he had peed his pants. Not long after, Ling Nan came out.

Nancy saw Ling Nan coming out, she straightened her collar reflexively and her voice immediately became gentle, “Ling Nan, I’m here to return something to you.”

Nancy waved her hands at me from behind, asking me to take the hamster over.

My spine went numb. After all, I couldn’t stand her shameless look.

I put the cage on the bar and said, “Your hamster…”

Ling Nan glanced at the cage with a cold look, then frowned at Nancy and said, “Don’t you understand what I mean? This hamster is just a gift in return for the fifty bad reviews.” Ling Nan pointed at the cage and said, “Miss Qu, if you don’t want to be disliked like a street rat, take your things and leave here.”

As soon as these words were spoken, Nancy ‘s face darkened noticeably, but she did not get angry, or rather, she was enduring unconditionally in front of Ling Nan.

But I couldn’t help it. I grabbed the hamster cage, pushed it directly into Lingnan’s arms, and said, “If you have any problem with Nancy ‘s behavior, just tell her directly. What are you implying by holding this hamster? Don’t you know that she is most afraid of this thing?” After a pause, I suddenly remembered that Lingnan no longer remembered Nancy and me , so how could he remember what Nancy was afraid of before.

I held back my anger and said, “Ling Nan, I don’t know what you went through after graduation, nor do I know why you lost your memory! But, when you say this about her, do you really treat her as a human being? Do you know that she did this for you…”

Before I could finish my words, Nancy suddenly held my arm. She stared at the ground with a dull look for a long time. After about thirty or forty seconds, she took out her cell phone from her pocket and opened the food delivery app.

I watched her order 300 cups of coffee from the Encounter Cafe option, and changed the delivery address to Encounter Cafe.

Ling Nan noticed Nancy ‘s actions. He sneered and said, “Are you trying to do this again? Do you think I will take your order?”

At this time, a male waiter came from the kitchen, holding a cell phone in his hand. He stood tremblingly beside Ling Nan and asked timidly: “Boss… are you not going to take this takeaway? Or… are you not going to take it?”

Suddenly, Nancy and Lingnan said in unison.
