She left the glass fully empty on the table, grabbed her purse, documents and departed in her car. The little devil on her shoulder sneered, poking fun at her naivety of thinking that it would make a difference if she moved back home.

——

As time passed, Huo Yunting gradually recovered from the agony of losing his mother. He seemed to have moved on, putting down baggage which he no longer had to hold.

And always there must be someone new to the incident right when the storm started subsiding.

Huo Family’s Residence in the Capital.

Old Mrs. Huo had returned to the country from her scheduled break and she heard the news from the butler upon exiting the family’s private plane. “What? Qiu Ran?” She staggered, nearly passing out at the staircases outside the plane. The butler carefully escorted her to their transportation but clearly the old lady was very displeased by the turn of events. She almost could not breathe as she hurried the driver at every junction, tapping the ground with her rod.

Hideous glarings were embedded within her furrowed brows. The maids retreated themselves immediately after whispering their greeting to the old lady the moment she threw the door open and strode quickly the first time in the house, “Go get that woman to me!” Her eyes shot upon the room upstairs before she crashed into the sofa and slammed the floor with her rod.

The butler sprinted upstairs.

Xue Yuming knew the old lady would be back home that day so she hid herself in her bedroom all day. Nevertheless, her disappearance did not make the old lady forget about her.

And Huo Zhenning isn’t here—Heaven knows what kind of humiliation will I get...

No, I can’t let the worst happen.

She first dialed Huo Zhenning, only then she walked very slowly to the living room.

Every second counts, Xue Yuming. Make as much delay as possible, till your darling comes home.

The old lady had wrath boiling inside her. It felt even more horrible as she observed that shameless woman sauntering down the stairs as if nothing had happened!

“You sure are taking your time. Are you any older or weaker than an elderly like me? Do you need me to whip you to make you go faster?” The old lady never liked her, even more so after the incident.

Qiu Ran was my designated daughter-in-law, my favorite one too. And she’s just gone. Oh—my poor Qiu Ran—How could this happen to you? All because of THIS woman! This other woman that brought all misfortunes to our family!

Xue Yuming sped up out of guilt. Her steps had gotten clumsier due to agitation and fear. At one step her foot slid through the carpeted stairs but a quick grip at the handle kept her still.

The old lady did not give a damn even if the accursed woman rolled off the stairs and knocked herself into the door. Old Mrs. Huo’s pupils were round, large and furious, her voice rang profoundly, “Miss Xue, I don’t know what diabolical plot you have in your mind. You have barged into our family, took the place as my daughter-in-law and you can’t even leave my Ran alone? Tell me, why do you have to do this? How can a woman be so heartless like you? And that Lu Zhaoyang too, was it your plan to make her hook up with Huo Chen in the first place? And you thought now without Huo Chen, all property goes to Huo Zhenning? Look at the number of things you have caused ever since you stepped into our house! You are just here to destroy the family, you witch.” The old lady was not foolish enough to figure out everything herself.

Qiu Ran was under treatment at the mental hospital the whole time but she did not seem to be recovering anytime soon and she even committed suicide in the end! And I know Xue Yuming must have done something!

“Mother, this really has nothing to do with me! She killed herself when I was in the capital the whole time. How would it be possible for me to do something when we were so far apart? Every statement must be supported with evidence!” Declined Xue Yuming forcefully. She must deny till the end of time in order to justify her attitude.

As long as I stay still, no way I would be chased out of the house, especially when I have Huo Zhenning by my side.

The old lady stared at her fiercely as she ordered the butler, “Arrange me a flight later. I want to go to the city and see my poor *daughter-in-law* myself!”

Daughter-in-law?

The salutation was irritating to hear in Xue Yuming’s ears.

Can you get any more dramatic? She’s just an ex-wife of Huo Zhenning. And she’s dead. I am the one and only wife of Huo Zhenning now and ever will be.

You old spinster never took me as part of your family!
