Chapter 1230 - Xia Yehuas Marriage (25) (1/2)

When Li Mao said this, Li Tianyu immediately stepped forward and said, “Dad, no!”

Li Mao frowned and replied, “What is there to hide still? Now that things have come to this, Tianyu, please don’t blame me. I really- It would be wrong of me to continue keeping mum about this matter.”

Upon hearing this, Li Tianyu choked back his words.

He paused for a while and then sighed. He nodded and stepped back.

Looking at everyone in the room, Li Mao started, “At the time, Yuanyuan had kept her condition a secret because… she had AIDS.”

“What?!”

“That is not possible!”

“What nonsense are you speaking? Don’t you know that saying such things will sully Yuanyuan’s reputation?”

They started to raise their voices.

Pursing his lips, Li Mao looked up at them and said, “Why would I joke about such a thing? At that time, we went overseas and Yuanyuan fooled around. When we returned home, we discovered that she was infected with AIDS. She begged me not to tell anyone and certainly not to let you all know, because she didn’t want you to be sad or to despise her. She’d rather she die of cancer. The medical reports are at home! If you don’t believe me, you can come with me to have a look.”

Zhang Yuan’s elder brother looked at him with an expression of disbelief and said after a moment, “And you…”

Li Mao cast his gaze down and sighed. He finally revealed, “Yuanyuan and I had already separated ten years ago.”

Senior Madam Zhang and Sister-in-law Zhang were shocked to hear this. They too looked at Li Mao in disbelief.
