At
Moon Lee’s prime and during the three good years of our relationship and
marriage, she was always well groomed and conscious of her appearance. Even the housekeeper would comment on Moon’s
habit of seldom leaving her bedroom without being totally coiffured. She knew many admired her looks, but most of
all, she probably admired herself. Moon
also loved to pose and look good in photographs. That is why I had, and still have, a giant
library of them. Since her divorce, her
evolving tendency to allow photos into her own blog showing varying levels of
being disheveled and unfashionable is quite surprising. It makes me rather curious about her present
frame of mind. Is she trying to portray
that she is practical and down-to-earth and freed from the vanity of the
past? From the pretty girl I used to
know and once loved, she is downright and consistently matronly. It is just more than aging. She is not ugly but any glamor, freshness or
sensuality is lost and she looks like everyone’s semi-attractive housekeeper or
nanny. It has been an amazing
transformation. There is nothing more to
admire, physically and professionally.
With
her son now in college (my guess in Canada) and away from her side, Moon is
relegated to her travels as she amateurishly delve into her hobby of
performance and theatrical art. Over the
last several years, she religiously writes for her China sina.com blog. Yet she has never hinted at any worthy
personal relationships of any kind, male or female. Maybe she has been hesitant to drag
girlfriends into her sewer of scandals, and of course, I always doubted that
she would ever attract a worthwhile beau.
What man with any financial means will gamble on her? It is remarkable how a handful sexual rendezvous
with an unworthy object of one’s affection can turn one’s life totally upside
down.
Of
course, Moon’s transgression went way beyond her illicit sex with a minor. It was one thing to betray her husband’s
love, it was quite another to try to rob him as well. Despite her idiotic sexual mistake, she would
have escaped the scandal a lot better if she had accepted my generous offer to
leave the marriage quietly. Yet, she was
determined to fight unethically for part of my family’s wealth before she took
her leave. So she ended up losing on all
counts, and after a long fight, cried pathetically in the courtroom after the
verdict was pronounced without hesitation by the judge. The long judicial battle kept stirring up her
pot of mud, and she was still left empty-handed.
So
maybe life’s turmoil at this high level leaves an unyielding scar. Maybe a scandal in life so spectacular can
never be forgotten. And maybe a sexual
desire once so perverse will never allow one to love again or be loved.
Whatever
the reason, a once pretty angel of love now looks like a middle-aged matron
that only her son can love. So good
luck, because that is all she has left.
