Doris was stumped for words. She clenched her fists and glared coldly at Gu Qiwu.
At this moment, Gu Qiwu only took a deep breath and calmed himself down as his eyes returned to tranquillity, silently looking at Doris. He forced a smile and said, “Doris, don’t say I don’t care about you. You should know how many chances I’ve given you all these years, but apart from plotting against me, what else have you done?”
Gu Qiwu’s expression showed sorrow and helplessness. With his hand gently covering the teacup, he paused and then continued, “I abandoned Mu Zi and my own son for you. I don’t deny that it was because of the Hui Gu Corporation then, but did you really think that without you, the Hui Gu Corporation wouldn’t be able to go on? If that was the case, then you might’ve thought too highly of yourself!”
“Since you admit that it’s for the Hui Gu Corporation, is there a need to continue discussing this?” Doris was not a fool either. She came from a prestigious family and had long seen through those tricks. How could she have believed that Gu Qiwu married her solely because he liked her?
Preposterous!
She did not believe it at all!
“You hiding about you and Mu Zi was dishonesty to me. Had I known you were like this back then, do you think I’d have chosen you? Who are you!?”
Doris was filled with regret now.
Years ago, apart from Gu Qiwu, many people had adored her. There were so many more men who were better than him!
Nevertheless, she had chosen to stoop low and fancy a solemn-appearance hypocrite like Gu Qiwu!
“Don’t say it so harshly. Haven’t you been taking lots of my money too? Doris, don’t say that I didn’t give you a chance! If you weren’t so ambitious, I wouldn’t need to constantly be wary against you. Do you think I don’t know who are the people you arranged to be in the company? I didn’t want us to take this final step, so I tolerated you. I didn’t even want to invalidate the contract which is why I wanted to borrow the outside strength to break away from your control. At least, those things were yours too, but now? How have you treated me?”
The more Gu Qiwu spoke, the colder his tone became. In the end, a dangerous light gathered in his eyes.
“I tolerated you too much. That’s how you became arrogant, Doris. Only women who know how to appreciate things are valuable. You were wrong for not knowing how to appreciate it while you went about. Instead, you used my feelings for you and did whatever you pleased!”
“Enough, Gu Qiwu!” Doris finally could not help but snarl!
“Don’t make yourself sound like a saint. You are the most disgusting man I’ve ever met! From the moment you did something to the contract, you had no right of saying whether you cared or not. You’ve been wary against me right from the start, so what is this love you’re talking about? You’re a despicable and shameless person! Tras.h.!.+” Doris could not help but curse.
Gu Qiwu did not look too pleased, but he only smiled coldly and let it be.
“Enough, Doris, let’s just part without hard feelings. Don’t disregard my goodwill. For the sake of our past, I will leave you some dignity. Otherwise, do you think I’d be talking so nicely to you after what you’ve done? I’ve given you a chance, but you didn’t want it yourself. It’s best if women know their place. Don’t try to provoke me, or else, it will only be you who loses out!”
Doris looked even worse as she felt mad and wished she just go up and strangle Gu Qiwu to death.
“You’re both women, but Zixi was much smarter than you. You’re far behind her!”
As matters stood, upon seeing Doris’s conduct, Gu Qiwu finally made a comparison in his heart. He suddenly felt like apart from her looks, she was not too different from Mu Zi. She did not have Mu Zi’s tender consideration and none of Mu Zi’s strength, the lack of all of which annoyed him.
At this point, Gu Qiwu had already lived a long 50 odd years, and the women he truly had were only Mu Zi and Doris. He never felt that his apathetic personality could be controlled by women, but the more one rejected some things, the more fate had a way to make one face it. Gu Qiwu could not escape that fate in the end.
When Gu Qiwu said that, Doris could not help but laugh.
“Zixi? Mu Zi? How can that tactless woman be compared to me? If she were really great, she wouldn’t have made you lose money and you wouldn’t have not cared! She even shamelessly gave birth to not only Lingtian, but Mu Lings.h.i.+ too! Gu Qiwu, this whole thing sounds like a joke, and this almost killed Mu Yinan and the rest. If it were not for Mu Yuchen, the shameless witch like her should’ve gone down history infamously! How could she compare to me?”
Doris had never attached importance to Mu Zi. When Mu Zi met her years ago, she had even called her sister-in-law agreeably. As she recalled that stupid face of hers, Doris felt that she was beneath her!
When Gu Qiwu heard this, his expression darkened. Even though he did not care much for Mu Zi, hearing Doris demean her like that made him feel angry for some reason. He sneered sinisterly, “The elegant Doris went so far as cheating on her husband behind his back? You’re already 50 odd years old and still so flirtatiously lowly that you got pregnant. A demoralizing woman like you calling herself dignified? Glorious! I’m sure your parents don’t know about the scandals yet, do they? Do I need to call them personally to tell them?”
COMMENT
“Don’t you dare!”
“Why wouldn’t I?”
…
When Gu Lingsha rushed to the Gu family mansion, Gu Qiwu and Doris were in the midst of a huge fight! She went up to helplessly stop them, but Doris pushed her aside.
“Move aside. Don’t get involved in things between us!” Doris said in a stern and sharp voice while her blue eyes burned with sparks.
In a voice that was as cold as metal, not having a hint of emotions, Doris warned, “I’m telling you, this thing won’t just end like this, Gu Qiwu! You will know the price to pay for plotting against me. When the time comes, I’d like to see how you surrender at my feet!” Even Gu Lingsha, who endured the pain and wanted to go up to stop them, was frightened to a halt by that gaze of hers.
Gu Lingsha had always known the kind of character her mother was.
Doris must have found this outcome very hard to accept, so her hatred was probably not going to fade so easily. She and Gu Qiwu could never go back to the way they were before anymore…
Gu Lingsha could not help but feel depressed…
