Retired Villainess Transmigrates into a Cannon Fodder - Chapter 948
Mrs. Chu had seen Chu Xiang’s true face in the study back then, so she did not feel that Chu Xiang had any grievances in the Chu family at all. On the contrary, she felt that Chu Xiang was too good at acting and had cheated everyone, maybe even the Shao family was cheated.
So of course she is not willing to bow down and apologize to Chu Xiang. However, the present situation is more dire. She has been a rich lady for so many years, how would she be willing to divorce at this age? Therefore, she wanted to curry favor with Chu Xiang in private and beg Chu Xiang to plead with the Shao family for them. As long as Chu Xiang forgave them, the Shao family will naturally also stop.
But to her surprise, Chu Xiang did not show any mercy and even mocked Mrs. Chu, “Your life is already almost over. What do you think you have left? You have no healthy body, no filial children, no loving husband, no trustworthy friends, and no reliable company. What a pity.”
Mrs. Chu shook with anger. “Chu Xiang, don’t forget that we brought you from the slums to the elite circle. If it weren’t for us, you’d have spent your whole life at the bottom of the ladder. How could you be here today? Aren’t you afraid of being called ungrateful if you turn your back on us now?”
Chu Xiang laughed lightly. “Will anyone say that? Why do you think I left only after the Chu family had been exposed? It’s so that people could see how you were treating me. Give it a guess. When Chu Group goes bankrupt, will someone accuse me of being ungrateful?”
“You- You are so deceitful!” Mrs. Chu thought of all the scandals about the Chu family and knew that everyone thought the Chu family deserved it. Then, she was shocked. “You did it on purpose? You deliberately let everyone know about our family affairs and then left. This is all part of your plan- did you already know that you are not our daughter since the start? The initial paternity test was your doing, wasn’t it? You deliberately misled us into thinking that you were our daughter, then used us to enter the elite circle, and then kicked us away after you hooked up with the Shao family, and tried to trample us to death, didn’t you?”
Chu Xiang didn’t admit or deny, but only laughed. “Mrs. Chu has a rich imagination. Well, today’s entertainment time is over. I’m busy. Goodbye.”
“Hey! Hello?” Mrs. Chu was furious and rushed to the office to tell Mr. Chu about her speculation again. Mr. Chu was furious and thought she was out of her mind. How could Chu Xiang, a poor girl, tamper with the test report? Even if she had the intention, she lacked the money to do so. Besides, the Chu family chose the paternity test center, so Chu Xiang couldn’t have made arrangements in advance.
Then, Mr. Chu suspected Mrs. Chu. After all, Mrs. Chu just brought a fake daughter home, so at the beginning, could it also be Mrs. Chu who tampered with the result so that he mistook Chu Xiang as the Chu family’s daughter?
No wonder Mrs. Chu had never treated Chu Xiang well since they brought her home. She kept telling him Chu Xiang’s wrongdoings so he was also annoyed by Chu Xiang. As he thought of this, Mr. Chu thought Mrs. Chu was the culprit and the root of all the drama.
Mr. Chu became more determined to divorce Mrs. Chu that he even moved out and never saw Mrs. Chu again. Although Mrs. Chu had shares in the company, she had no real authority there. She lost sleep every night and lacked energy and had headaches every day. Every day was a torment to her.
Chu Xiang’s words often ring in her ears. She had lived most of her life, but what did she had left? She had nothing but dividends from the company. However, the company was going downhill, and she might even have problems with her retirement funds.
Chu Xiang’s words had a great impact on Mrs. Chu, and she did not feel safe at all. At this time, Chen Xuan came to her door, like a good and caring daughter, to comfort her and gave her ideas to get back Mr. Chu. Mrs, Chu, like clutching on a driftwood in the water, clung to Chen Xuan.
Although Chen Xuan did many things that she did not like and was no longer the good daughter in her heart, Chen Xuan was, after all, her daughter for seventeen years. Mrs. Chu still had a little trust in her and was willing to let Chen Xuan help her do something. In any case, Chen Xuan wanted money, and Mrs. Chu only needed to give her a little. They were using each other for their own benefit.
Chen Xuan also met a lot of people in her rollercoaster-like life, and now she had no advantage against Mr. Chu, so she came up with an evil plan to cause a lot of trouble for Mr. Chu in private, and also bribe Mr. Chu’s company employees to get confidential information to threaten Mr. Chu against a divorce. If Mr. Chu divorced, then he had to leave the marriage with zero pence.
Chen Xuan’s plan was neat. Mrs. Chu’s health was poor, and she was going senile. In addition, she did not guard against Chen Xuan. Therefore, it’s easy for Chen Xuan to fool her. She clung to Mrs. Chu so that when Mrs. Chu died in the future, Mrs. Chu’s shares would definitely be given to her. If she had a way to snatch over Mr. Chu’s shares too, she would still be the sole heir of Chu Group.
When Chu Xiang just transmigrated, the Chu family trio were still close, but now in just two years, they were already like enemies and scheming against each other ruthlessly.
Near the end, Chu Xiang did not do much anymore. All she did was sow discord and drop hints. Paired with the traps she had initially laid, the Chu family was in disarray and getting worse by the day.
