Mr. Xu nodded, for he had wondered about the sa thing but he had not dared to voice it to his wife for fear that her heart would break even more.
Mrs. Xu moved from where she was and she sat in the chair closest to i i’s. "Do you know that it took two years for them to prepare for that trip to space? As a requirent, all the experts were told to leave a piece of themselves behind in case they did not make it back. They left behind eggs that were frozen, we want Tang Yue to carry our son’s child. That is the only way that we will forgive her for her immorality."
"What?" i i blinked rapidly. She thought they were talking nonsense because it sounded more like revenge than justice and a twisted revenge at that.
Mr. Xu could not believe that his wife was still going on with her crazy idea and she had even told i i about it. "I told you to stop saying that." He said to his wife.
Mrs. Xu had no regrets on her face, in fact she beca more unreasonable.
"Why should I? Is this sothing to be ashad of? She is our son’s wife, he married her legally. It was her idea for him to sign up for that mission in space and she also promised us that if he dies up there, she would have his child using the eggs he left behind.
It was not as if she was the only to make the promise, he did the sa thing. He promised to have a surrogate carry their child if she was the one that died up there. She even made him put it in writing that he would raise the child alone and never remarry. That wench got it ...err what is called when a lawyer stamps it and makes it legal?"
"Notarized." i i suggested.
Mrs. Xu nodded eagerly. "Now that it has co to this, she should fulfill her promise. All we want to do is borrow her stomach for a few months and then we will let her go. If she could have a child with her adulterer then she can have a child for my son."
i i was lost for words, it sounded crazy and yet it was the best kind of revenge on Tang Yue. Mo Liang would go nuts if he found out that his woman was carrying another man’s child. It did not matter if the man was dead or alive.
"I don’t know if they are genius or nuts." C4 laughed and fell back, kicking his feet up.
i i looked from Mr.s Xu to Mr. Xu. "Have you both co to for this reason because Tang Yue is not my friend so I cannot convince her to carry your son’s child. Maybe you should take this conversation to a lawyer."
Their faces fell and she guessed why.
"Let guess, you were contacted by soone from the royal office or so other powerful individual and threatened that if you touch Tang Yue things will not end well for you."
Mrs. Xu nodded. "We were told not to do anything that would ruin the image of the national space baby so this protection by default extends to the mother. Can you imagine!!!" Raising her voice, Mrs. Xu shouted, "It is a bastard. They are treating that little bastard as if he is a special existence. What about my son?" She slapped her chest, moved from the chair and sat on the carpet, wailing loudly. "Where is the justice for my son?"
i could only look on in silence as Mrs. Xu wailed. She was stuck waiting for the woman to calm herself and it happened fifteen minutes later.
"Miss Jun," Mrs. Xu started as she returned to the chair, "We don’t have the power to get revenge on Tang Yue and maybe we don’t even have a reason as they slept together after our son was dead. But, even emotional cheating is cheating. Before they started sleeping together, they must have had feelings for each other. They cheated my son, I cannot just watch them hold hands and walk off into sunset together. You are the daughter of the Jun family, what we cannot do, you can."
Mrs. Xu words echoed what she had heard many tis in the past, You are the daughter of the Jun family, everything cos easy to you. Your father is the mighty Jun Muyang a financial giant, what do you know of poverty? Your mother is Chi Lian the CEO of Phoenix group, you are so lucky because you won’t have to search for jobs like the rest of us.
Sixty percent of the ti, these words had been said out of malice more than politeness. In the past, i i would feel terrible when they were said to her but now, she actually longed to be the daughter of the Jun family not for the wealth but because they were her family. Her parents worked hard for all that wealth, she had been lucky to be born to them and yet she allowed people to make her feel guilty about it.
What was so bad about being wealthy as long as it was clean money earned righteously?
i i crossed one leg over the other, she had given things a long hard think. "Mr. and Mrs. Xu, my battle that I am fighting is against my scumbag husband. I must protect my daughter and my interests first. Tang Yue is not on the top of my list of people to deal with.
It does not an that I would not like to see her suffer for what she has done. Since she personally made sure to notarize that agreent, it is only right that she fulfills it. I think that you can sue her and even if you don’t win, you can give her a hard ti and reveal the fact that her son is not your grandchild.
So, why don’t I introduce you to lawyers that might help you? These are lawyers from the phoenix group, they won’t be afraid of the royal office. I will cover the expenses of course, all you need to do is tell the truth."
i i called Rose for help and she sent the Xu’s to Phoenix group. By the ti they left, it was already twenty minutes past two and Mingzhu was about to return for school.
"No afternoon nap I guess." she muttered. She gave up on napping and went to the kitchen to prepare her daughter’s snack.
