Chapter 205 - 205: Betrayal (2/2)
”The financial department is in chaos. Billions were lost and we've received numerous complaints from our business partners.” An Xiuling voiced out her reports.
”They also refused to help in fear of being implicated and losing their company.”
When Father Bai heard this, his eyes evidently went cold.
Most of their business partners had been his friends for a long time. They've been through thick and thin with him.
Now that a predicament like this surfaced, they all pretended not to know him?
Cowards! Ungrateful bastards!
Those old goons will pay for sure!
However, his heart couldn't ache more than what his brother-in-arms had done to him.
One of the business partner who betrayed him was An Qi Sheng.
An Xiuling's father.
However, An Xiuling no longer associate herself with the An family after they kicked her out when she was 16.
As An Qi Sheng's illegitimate daughter from a woman of unknown background, the An family refuse to acknowledge her existence.
An Xiuling was tormented and bullied since she was young. Even the servants were treated better than her.
She was constantly bullied by her stepmother and step-siblings. The only person who was kind to her was her eldest half-brother, An Qi Yong.
Maybe it's because they found comfort with one another and faced the same maltreatment from their family.
An Qi Yong is the eldest young master and a legitimate child. He was supposed to be the heir and the apple in their father's eyes.
Sadly, he met with an accident that caused him to be crippled. His hands and feet were paralyzed. No family would want him as their son-in-law because he can no longer reproduce. Though the bullying were not worst compare to An Xiuling, they had still inflicted mental torment on him.
So when An Xiuling was kicked out, she swore to be successful and pull out her beloved brother from the An family's grasp.
Father Bai didn't know that An Xiuling was An Qi Sheng's daughter. Since An Xiuling's existence was a sensitive matter to the An family, they did not dare show her in public.
If Father Bai knew An Qi Sheng was really a shameless bastard, he would not have trusted him or befriended him in the first place!
