315 Reunion 10 (1/2)
Tears streamed down Mrs. Chi's face uncontrollably as she begged her daughter to stop. ”Forget it, Rui'er. Don't ask for anything.”
”No way!” Chi Rui'er grabbed her mother's arm and said to Gu Dongcheng, ”Don't think of getting a divorce unless you pay me.”
Just as they were walking towards the door, Gu Dongcheng yelled, ”Stop them!”
The bodyguards proceeded to block them from leaving at once. ”Lock them up!” Gu Dongcheng ordered.
Clicking her tongue in distaste, Mrs. Gu commented, ”This woman is really something. Thankfully Beicheng chose not to be with her back then. Otherwise, he would've landed in the same sorry state as Dongcheng.”
”That's enough, cut it out. Isn't there already enough trouble?” Mr. Gu chided as he shot her a glare.
”Dongcheng, what made you want to take a DNA test?”
”Beicheng was the one who suggested it. She still has the cheek to ask for money. I won't give her a single cent. I'm going to prepare the divorce agreement right away,” said a frustrated Gu Dongcheng.
”If we don't make the first move and beat Chi Rui'er to exposing the matter about the child to the media, I'm afraid Chi Rui'er is going to try and tarnish your reputation in the future. If it means we're going to wash our dirty linen in public, then so be it. I still think it's better to take the initiative and tell the media of the reason for your divorce ourselves,” said Mr. Gu.
”Alright,” Gu Dongcheng answered with a nod.
Chi Rui'er and Mrs. Chi were locked up together with the child's body.
Carrying her deceased grandchild in her arms, Mrs. Chi said with a sigh, ”You were the one at fault in the first place. How could you ask for a share of his assets? Rui'er, just tell him that you don't want the money anymore when he comes by later. After your divorce, let's move elsewhere and get on with life. Doesn't that sound great?”Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.
”No way. What are we going to live on if we don't take his money? Things have already come to this anyway, the cat is out of the bag. It'd be a waste not to take the money,” Chi Rui'er objected.
”He seemed so infuriated. Why would he still give you the money?”
After a moment of silence, Chi Rui'er said, ”If he doesn't give me the money, I'll spill the beans to the media.”
”Rui'er, are you out of your mind? If you leak this news to the media, he's definitely going to expose the truth about the child not being his biological son.”
”Doesn't matter to me, I don't have an established company or career at stake anyway. It's a different case for him though.”
As she was speaking, they began to hear footsteps approaching. Gu Dongcheng entered and placed two sets of the divorce agreement onto the table. At this point, he had come to utterly detest Chi Rui'er.
”Pride matters to all humans, but just how did such a shameless person like you live until today? You decide whether you want to sign the agreement amicably or make me force you to do it.”
”I won't sign it,” Chi Rui'er refuted.
Gu Dongcheng motioned for the bodyguards to come forth and instructed, ”You two, force her to stamp her thumbprint onto the agreement.”
”Yes.”
”Get away from me!” Chi Rui'er hollered as she retreated backwards, but to no avail. The big and burly bodyguards dragged her in one fluid motion and grabbed her wrists forcefully to make her stamp her thumbprint onto the designated space on the divorce agreement.
Holding the signed agreement in his hands, Gu Dongcheng scorned, ”Once the divorce certificate is ready, you may get lost from my sight. Go as far away from me as you can.”
”Gu Dongcheng! I'm going to sue you for bribing the Civil Administration Office to process the divorce certificate!”
”Go ahead and try suing me. We shall see if you can.”
He turned around to leave, ignoring her cries and incessant yelling.
