Chapter 423 - Untitled (2/2)

He left in high spirits. Mrs. Li simply held her clothes tightly in her arms. With her body of fats fully exposed, she dared not cry out or scream for help. She hadn't forgotten that someone had taken her nude photos just a few minutes ago.

She shuddered as the feelings of humiliation and fear washed over her. Beads of cold sweat covered her forehead with no sign of retreating. She dared not imagine what would happen to her if her photos were released online and then on television. Should she just die? She didn't want to subject herself to this torture at her age.

She was on the brink of tears as she fumbled to pick up her clothes and put them on. After making sure that no one was in the vicinity, she ran straight home.

It was her good luck that only the maid was present when she arrived home. The maid was startled by the sight of Mrs. Li. ”Oh, my goodness, Madam. What happened to you? Why are you in this state? Has something happened to you? Your hairdo is all messed up, your face is swollen, and your clothes have obviously been ripped apart by someone.” However, would someone really do such terrible things to her at her advanced age?

”Shut up!” Mrs. Li warned the maid. ”I tripped and fell on my face home. Do not say a word to anyone.”

However, she waited for a long time, but her mother remained silent. Li Manni wondered what was going through her mind.

”Mom.” Li Manni shook her mother's shoulders. ”What is wrong with you today?”

”Oh, nothing.” Mrs. Li regained her senses abruptly. An awful smile appeared on her lips. ”Manni, you are pregnant with a baby now. In the future, don't keep wandering out. You must be careful with yourself for your child.” She had yet to recover from the ordeal which had happened only recently. Whenever she thought of that, she would feel uneasy during the day and suffer from insomnia at night. On top of that, she was constantly wondering where her photos were, and it caused her to lose her appetite. Not to mention other things.

”Mom, I know.” Li Manni didn't notice the distraction in her mother. She asked again, ”Mom, a few days ago, didn't you say you will find someone to teach that woman a lesson? How did it go? Have you done it?”

”Oh, yes. Done. All done.” Mrs. Li yawned. Actually, she wasn't sure of its status as well. The man she found didn't mention a word. In the end, she was…
