Chapter 439 - He Wanted a Divorce Part 2 (1/2)
Chu Lui's lips were pursed into a tight line. Half of his face felt numb from the slap as he lifted the corner of his lip, but that movement caused a searing pain on his face. It was almost unbearable.
”Mom, please don't interfere with this matter. Right now, I can't tell you the reason why I've decided to divorce Li Manni.”
”I object.” Chu Jiang roared crazily before Song Wan could say a word. One could feel the hospital ceiling shook with his roar.
”Divorce. Fine. Go ahead.” Chu Jiang stomped around the waiting area. Potholes almost emerged on the ground from his heavy footsteps.
”If you go ahead with the divorce, what will happen to my grandchild? Tell me. What do you intend to do about my grandchild? Who will bear me another grandchild? Chu Lui, I'm warning you.” Chu Jiang approached his son with his index finger near enough to poke holes into Chu Lui's forehead. In this world, the only person who could do that to Chu Lui without repercussions was his father, Chu Jiang.
”Dad, I'm getting a divorce.” Chu Lui merely repeated his words.
He would go through with the divorce.
He was not negotiating; he was stating a fact.
He would go through with the divorce, and that's that.
”I disagree.” Chu Jiang almost reached out to slap his son's face to make it look even. ”Chu Lui, you can have your divorce, but don't dream about calling me 'Dad' for as long as I'm alive. I disown you as my son. You treat both your marriages like a joke. You know damn well what you did to Xia Ruoxin. Why? Have you become addicted to it?”
He finished talking and made his point with a glare towards his son. Then, he pulled Song Wan's hand and left in a huff.
”Ah Lui…” Song Wan wanted to hold on to her son. On the one hand, there was her husband and, on the other, her son. At the moment, her husband was too furious for reasoning. She must soothe his feathers, or else with both Chu Lui and his tempers, an epic fight was bound to happen.
Mrs. Li kept wiping her tears in the hospital. She was irate with Chu Lui, and yet her heart went out for her daughter.
”Manni… Manni…” she called her daughter's name constantly, worried that something might happen to Li Manni and her unborn grandchild.
”Mom…” Li Manni regained consciousness, still dazed. She opened her eyes and saw her haggard mother sitting by her side.
”Manni, you are awake.” At last, she finally stopped fretting. She placed a hand on her daughter's forehead and heaved a sigh of relief when she felt there was no fever. The doctor said that once Li Manni was awake, she would be fine. However, she must exercise caution with plenty of rest.
Li Manni's hand went to her stomach. Her face remained pale.
”Mom, my baby…”
”Don't worry. The baby is fine.” Mrs. Li consoled her daughter. ”The doctor said your baby is fine, but you must be careful. In the future, don't be so reckless.”
Until now, Li Manni was still concerned.
However, she wondered who she could go to with all her grievances as she repeated her mother's words.
