Her son dared not approach her anymore and hid in a corner without a word.
“Mom, I was wrong. I’m sorry, I deserve to be punished! You can do whatever you want with me, but for now, the most important thing is to ease this matter!” she told the elderly woman as she approached her.
“Ease this matter? How are you going to do that? What’s the point of doing that, anyway?!” Matriarch Mu hollered.
“I’ve been framed. We can look for the mastermind and then…”
“And what will happen after that? You both have been captured clearly on screen and on photos, so how do you think you can explain that away? Even if you manage to clarify the truth and prove your innocence, who would believe you? This is meaningless! Besides, this issue isn’t about you but about Kexin! She’s supposed to marry Bao Junyan, but now, with this scandal, she… you…” The elderly lady was so furious that she picked up an object beside her and threw it at the woman with total disregard. It was as if she wanted to finish her off with a blow.
“Mom, don’t you worry. I’ll make sure Kexin…”
“What are you going to make sure of? There’s nothing you can do now! Who do you think the Bao family is in the first place? This family is strong and powerful. Even if Kexin isn’t infatuated with that gigolo but was framed in this incident, this scandal is bad enough for the Bao family to despise her!”
She had spent efforts to create a good reputation in high society for her granddaughter to have a chance with the Bao family. Once her plan succeeded, Mu Kexin should have been able to marry Bao Junyan. But now…
A young lady obsessed over a gigolo, and even fought over the man with her own mother.
And now, everyone came to know about this scandal!
This… this was a fiasco that she was not capable of salvaging, no matter how formidable she was, and there was nothing more she could do to make Bao Junyan marry her granddaughter.
“You… the two of you… be d*mned!” She was about to explode with anger!
She had spent so many resources to create a way for her granddaughter to marry him, but now…
She was mad enough to want to take their lives!
“Mom…” Even the normally sharp-witted Bai Xuexian did not know what to say this time. She knew they were in big trouble.
“So what if I can’t marry Bao Junyan? I’m happy to marry Zixian! But, Mom, you are not allowed to fight with me over him. He’s mine!” Mu Kexin believed that her family was rich enough, so marrying a gigolo was not a big deal, as long as the man had good looks and knew how to please her.
Bao Junyan was too aloof and haughty for her taste, even though his looks might surpa.s.s her gigolo’s. Anyway, she wanted to be with a man who spoiled her like a princess and one who would surprise her from time to time. She preferred a man who made her feel like a protagonist in a romantic show.
So, to her, it was no big deal if she could not marry Bao Junyan.
Her mother almost collapsed with rage over her daughter’s att.i.tude. Why do I have such a daughter?!
Matriarch Mu walked straight up to her granddaughter and knocked her over with a huge blow.
Dumbfounded, the young lady sat on the ground, looking in disbelief at her grandma. “Grandma… you…”
She hit me! She actually hit me!
“Useless thing!” She was a useless p.a.w.n to the elderly woman now.
Her mother understood the old lady well, so she knew that the latter had given up on her granddaughter this time. From now on, Mu Kexin would lose her favor with the matriarch. Even she felt like giving up on her own daughter, what more the old woman!
She is really…
“You take this scoundrel out of this country tomorrow and never return!” Matriarch Mu did not want to see the two of them anymore!
They had totally destroyed her plan!
