Need You Now Chapter 1 The Rumor

In the mourning hall, the air was heavy with grief. Heidy Hua stood quietly at the side, her eyes red with
tears as she stared at the man in the coffin. There were many people who came to mourn, all of them
bowing to pay their respects.

"I'm sorry for your loss," they would all say as they came up to her.

"Thank you," she would reply, her hands gracefully folded in front of her as she bowed back to them.

As she looked at her father lying down on the coffin, Heidy wished with all her might that he was just
playing a prank on her, that he was just asleep and that he would soon open his eyes to tell her that he
was still alive. However, it seemed more like a nightmare from which she couldn't be able to wake up
from. The more she thought about it, the more pain she felt in her heart. But she had to endure it. She
couldn't let herself break down.

The ceremony was still going on, and more and more people came to mourn. After having a word with
the steward, Heidy went off and walked towards the villa in the backyard. It had been over twenty four
hours since she had had some decent sleep. With her head throbbing, Heidy just wanted to have a few
minutes of rest.

As she climbed up to the second floor, she heard a strange noise from the bedroom at the end of the
hall. The fatigue Heidy felt left her body in an instant. She was not a fool and she knew what was going
on in the room.

When she was about to push open the door to see who was shamelessly making love during her
father's wake, she did not expect to hear a familiar voice. "Oh, baby, I've been missing you so much
these days." Before the man finished speaking, there was another loud groan.

Heidy's eyes were wide open now, filled with undeniable shock. "No... It can't be..." Heidy murmured,
her face turning pale.



A charming female voice then spoke. "Honey, I missed you too. What if my sister comes back?"

"Don't worry. I'm pretty sure she's busy with the funeral. You look so sexy right now. I think I might have
to punish you today..." The man's low grunt showed that he was growing impatient.

The woman's laughter was soft and teasing. Not being able to stand it anymore, Heidy pushed the door
open with great anger.

Hearing the sudden noise, the two lovers looked at the door in surprise. At the sight of Heidy, Jack Xu
panicked, "Heidy... Heidy, what are you doing here?"

In comparison to Jack Xu's nervousness, Sherry Hua appeared to be much calmer, even looking a bit
amused. She lay on her said leisurely, a smug smile on her face. "Ah, sister! You're here."

There was no doubt that Heidy's husband and her sister were having sex. Heidy's heart tightened in
her chest, her hands balling up to fists at her side. "She's my sister... She's my sister, Jack! How can
you do this to me?!" Heidy roared.

After getting dressed, Jack came up to her and held her hand. "Heidy... It.. It was an accident. Sherry
and I just--"

But before he could finish what he was saying, Heidy had slapped him right across the face. Heidy's
eyes burned with tears. "Do you really take me for a fool? Have you ever thought for a moment that
you have a wife?! And to bring her into our own bedroom!" she fumed.

A cold smile appeared on Jack's face. Sherry Hua came to Jack's side and tenderly leaned her head
on his shoulder. "Sister, it's just that you haven't been able to satisfy my dearest brother-in-law. I was
just doing you a favor," Sherry said matter-of-factly.



Heidy's body trembled with anger. There was just too many emotions for her to handle all in one sitting!
"Sherry, I have loved you. I have been nothing but a loving sister to you. Why did you do this? How
could you do this on the day of father's funeral!?" Heidy's voice quivered with fury. "You'll pay for this!"

Heidy shouted as she rushed towards them, unable to control her feelings any longer. Seeing this,
Sherry quickly hid herself behind Jack. Jack grabbed Heidy's hand and pushed her hard against the
wall.

Heidy hit the back of her head, the pain spreading like wildfire. Struggling to stand up, Heidy stared icily
at Jack and Sherry. "I want a divorce, Jack. And as for you, Sherry, you can no longer stay in the Hua
family," she said through gritted teeth. Slowly, Heidy turned around and walked towards the door.

When she was almost out the door, a sharp, stinging pain struck her at the back of her neck. Heidy
gradually sank onto the floor with a soft thud. Her lids grew heavy as she struggled to open her eyes.
Looking back, she saw Jack and Sherry standing side by side. Sherry had an evil smile on her face as
she held a small syringe in her hand.

Not being able to fight the injection given to her, Heidy closed her eyes and fell into a
coma.
