Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Although Huo Ge felt like a jerk, he wasn’t that unreasonable. For example, he was at least single.
He did not deny that his actions were despicable and lowly sometimes because he would force himself on whoever he liked. To him, those women were just tools to satisfy his desires.
Who would have feelings for tools?
In this world, it was really laughable to talk about hypocritical feelings.
This was especially so for his nominal father. While he made promises to his lover outside, he was busy getting married and having children to inherit the family business. It was extremely laughable.
Huo Huai sat at the side and ate the food that he thought was very humiliating.
Lin Rong, on the other hand, was waiting for her husband in the bedroom. She hoped that Huo Huai could resist Old Madam Huo’s dominance for her.
However, this time, she was disappointed as usual.
She did not see her husband, but her unhappy son.
Lin Rong adjusted her emotions and said, “Alright, Xiao Bing, don’t be unhappy. It’ll be fine in the future.”
Lin Rong still had hope for the future. Even if she didn’t, she wouldn’t say anything disheartening in front of her son.
She hated Old Madam Huo for being cruel to them, but she recognized reality, so she endured it.
“Mom! Grandma is too much! She was clearly the one who caused this situation. If she hadn’t stopped you and Dad back then, that b.a.s.t.a.r.d Huo Ge wouldn’t have sneaked into our house now,” Huo Bing said indignantly.
Lin Rong quickly covered Huo Bing’s mouth and said with disapproval, “Don’t talk nonsense. This is the Huo Family. There are people everywhere.”
Huo Bing naturally knew this, but he just felt uncomfortable. He just felt that he was also Grandma’s grandson. Why did Grandma have to treat him so differently?
Therefore, he only complained a little. He only dared to hide all his hatred in his heart.
Lin Rong held her son’s hand and said calmly, “Xiao Bing, although your Grandma doesn’t like you, you’re still a child of the Huo Family. You have a share in this huge Huo Family’s family business. Your mother isn’t greedy. As long as we can coax your father and get him to give you the a.s.sets under his name, it’s enough for you to spend your entire life.”
“Mom, you know that I want the entire Huo Family,” Huo Bing said softly.
In Huo Bing’s opinion, his parents were the golden couple and Zhao Ning was the third party. Therefore, he had always felt that the Huo Family should belong to him.
Lin Rong looked at her son with disapproval and said, “Old Madam isn’t that easy to deal with. I just hope that you can get your father’s share. Mom has tried her best to give birth to you in the Huo Family and has already done everything I can to help you rise in cla.s.s. I don’t want you to have a conflict with Old Madam and lose everything in the end. Do you understand?”
Lin Rong came from a lowly background and her parents were both useless villagers, so she had known since she was young that she had to be realistic and use all her strength to cling to the highest point she could reach.
Fortunately, although her family was poor, she was good-looking. Therefore, after she met Huo Huai, she tried her best to form all kinds of connections with him and finally hooked up with him.
Yes, she had long known that Huo Huai was engaged to a daughter of a well-matched family, but she still made a move because this opportunity was too rare for her.
With her status, in the future, she might not have the chance to meet a man with a family background like Huo Huai who was not smart enough.
She did not want to marry into an ordinary family. She would have to worry about the livelihood of her descendants for the rest of her life. She wanted to jump through the dragon gate in one go and let her descendants immediately jump levels to upper-cla.s.s society.
Therefore, when Huo Huai was hot-headed and said that he wanted to cut ties with the Huo Family, she was the one who gently persuaded Huo Huai, giving him a dignified excuse to go home and inherit the family business.
As for Zhao Ning’s death, she was also very regretful, but she had never wanted Zhao Ning to die.
She thought that the Zhao Family was a rich family and Zhao Ning was their daughter. She would definitely not be able to tolerate Huo Huai’s actions. When the time came, Huo Huai and Zhao Ning would definitely get a divorce.
As long as the two of them divorced, Huo Huai’s reputation in the capital would not be good. Naturally, no girl from a good family would marry into the Huo Family.
That way, she and Huo Huai would have a chance..
