At the barbecue store…

“What the f*ck! That Bai Xuexian ought to go to h.e.l.l when she dies!” Li Meng expressed her indignation after hearing Mu Huan’s story.

“Well, she ought to go to h.e.l.l right now!” The moment Mu Huan thought of how Bai Xuexian had arranged for someone to remove her granny’s oxygen tube, her eyes flared red with fury.

As her granny’s health deteriorated in the last few years, she’d been too busy trying to make enough money to support the three of them to recall the past. As a result, she’d almost forgotten what a vicious woman she was.

She thought that as long as she remained useful to her grandma after getting married to Bao Junyan, her grandma would continue to give the best treatment to her granny and that she could use this chance to fortify her position. However, with Bai Xuexian now in the picture, her granny would be in danger at any time. She had no time to tarry!

“That’s right, she ought to go to h.e.l.l now!” Li Meng nodded in agreement. “But, Xiao Huan, what can we do right now? No matter what, I think it’s best to agree to your grandma’s terms. If not, your granny would be in grave danger if she fell into the hands of Bai Xuexian!”

At least by agreeing to her grandma’s condition, Mu Huan could still receive some money. If not, Bai Xuexian would take her granny’s life and still force the granddaughter to abide by her terms.

“What does my grandma have on hand that makes her so certain that Bao Junyan would not only not get mad after being tricked, but also even marry Mu Kexin willingly?”

“This isn’t important, what’s important now is the choice that you are going to make.”

“No, this is very important!” She shook her head in disagreement. Knowing what cards her grandma had in hand would determine how she could retaliate.

“What’s the importance? Your choice is the most important thing right now! Your grandma is giving you only a day to consider, right?”

“I’m not going to choose from the options they give me. I’ll fight back!” Not only would she stop being blackmailed, but she would also fight back and repay their ruthlessness!

Just when her buddy was about to ask her how she intended to retaliate, she stood up abruptly and said, “I’m going back to the Bao family tonight instead of to your place!”

“Why…” Before her good friend could finish her words, she took off in a hurry.

At the Bao household…

“Master, you’re back.”

The man looked rather unhappily at Butler Lee as the latter approached him.

For a brief moment, the butler felt despised. “Madam has called earlier. She will be staying over at her friend’s place tonight.”

“Eh,” he replied with indifference and proceeded upstairs to his room.

Without his dear wife to hug, he headed for the study room instead of the bedroom.
