Supreme Heir Son-in-law

Chapter 1298 - 1297: Discussing Divorce

Watching Li Jun leave, Xu Ke sighed, hoping Li Jun could seize this opportunity to rise. If he really couldn’t grasp it, Xu Ke would not blame himself, after all, opportunity waits for no one.

Meanwhile, Xiao Zhen had taken over the Xiao Group, thinking he could have a good time, but whenever he remembered that woman who had cuckolded him, he couldn’t feel good, so he poured everything into work, leaving the company employees terrified.

"What’s wrong with the chairman lately? Wasn’t it just being cuckolded by a woman? Is it necessary to keep blaming us and getting angry? We didn’t provoke him, yet no proposal can pass the chairman now."

"Shut up, don’t you know the chairman has a bad temper? And talking about a man being cuckolded is already pitiful, yet you find it funny. Who do you expect to punish you if not the chairman? You’re really asking for trouble. I don’t dare to say anything, I’m going to work, if you really want to talk, do it yourself."

In recent days, as they said, Xiao Zhen not only was irritable but also made the department work overtime day and night, leaving the employees with no choice but to complain bitterly.

As for Ye Jingli, after losing her child, she had been despondent in the hospital. Xiao Zhen stood outside her hospital room, uncertain of his feelings, recalling that years ago they were deeply in love, never imagining a day would come when they would separate, and yet it had arrived so early.

He exhaled, suddenly feeling powerless to confront the harsh reality, but he had to face it. He stepped inside; Ye Jingli, aware that she was no longer the Young Mistress, couldn’t vent her anger and lay on the bed staring blankly out the window.

The changes outside the window came so quickly, and now the weather should be cooling down. In the past, that man would bring heavy clothes from behind her and hold her tightly, but now, all of this had vanished because of her.

No, it wasn’t me who ruined it all; it’s because this man simply doesn’t love me. If he loved me, he wouldn’t care about those things. It’s that he doesn’t love me, which is why he makes a fuss.

Thinking of this, Ye Jingli felt full of hatred, having lived with this man for over a decade, yet the truth was more than expected.

Suddenly hearing a sound at the doorway, Ye Jingli turned and saw Xiao Zhen, but instead of tears streaming as Xiao Zhen anticipated, she picked up a pillow by her side and threw it at Xiao Zhen. He didn’t dodge, letting the pillow hit him.

The pillow shattered not only Xiao Zhen’s aching heart but also years of emotion. Ye Jingli regretted throwing it instantly, yet the world lacks medicine for regret.

Feeling helpless, Xiao Zhen picked up another pillow, while Xiao Zhen placed his suit on the chair, looking steadily at Ye Jingli on the bed.

"Do you want to keep hitting? If you want to continue, I’ll wait until you’re done, and we can discuss matters afterward."

Hearing Xiao Zhen’s words, Ye Jingli put the pillow down, quietly leaning on the bed, looking at the disheveled man over recent days, even feeling a bit secretly happy, thinking this man must be very hurt because of her.

She quickly lifted the blanket and rushed forward, but Xiao Zhen swiftly backed away, causing Ye Jingli to fall on the bed.

Ye Jingli was stunned, not expecting this man before her to dislike her so much, feeling incredulous at once.

"I can explain this. Why won’t you listen to my explanation before denying everything I’ve done? I really didn’t do anything wrong, I promise!"

Xiao Zhen heard her words and laughed helplessly, even now this woman insisted she did nothing wrong. Could Xiao Keyu be someone else’s child? Clearly not.

Feeling disappointed, he sat down in the chair, no longer having the emotions of the past.

"I thought you would apologize to me, but I didn’t expect you to remain this way. I don’t know how to communicate with you; however, I hope you recover, and let’s divorce afterward."

"As for whose child that is, let them take care of him. I have no obligation to wear a green hat and raise someone else’s son."

Xiao Zhen’s words were particularly cruel. Ye Jingli stared at the wall in shock, unable to react. After so many years, were things really falling apart like this? Xiao Zhen didn’t even want that rebellious son.

But Ye Jingli didn’t want him either, recalling all that rebellious son had done to her, Ye Jingli felt deep hatred towards herself, having endured humiliation at the Xiao Family for so many years because of that child, only to be abandoned the instant something went wrong.

Clenching her fists tightly, she looked coldly at Xiao Zhen, "I can divorce you, but I won’t take Xiao Keyu. He’s surnamed Xiao, he’s your Xiao Family’s child, why should I take care of him? Besides, you’ve known him for so many years, there should be deep feelings between you, right?"

After Ye Jingli finished speaking, she lay back on the bed, looking coldly at Xiao Zhen. He didn’t expect this woman to try to push the child onto the Xiao Family.

He exhaled deeply, "If this child were ours, I wouldn’t say a word about giving him to you, but this child isn’t even mine, how do you have the face to stay? If you’re determined, we’ll see each other in court!"

After Xiao Zhen finished speaking, he picked up his suit, initially thinking they would have a formal farewell, but he hadn’t expected it to turn into such an argument.

Feeling extremely heavy, yet he could not show it in front of Ye Jingli, "That child is at school now, and he has moved out of the Xiao Family. See for yourself, as for who his father is, I once wanted to know, but now I no longer care."

"After all, you’ve indulged yourself in the world of desires, why care about this child? You must have many children, I didn’t know before that you’re such a promiscuous person!"

In the past, she sympathized with Ye Jingli, because she was so pure, not wanting her as a young girl to drift into hotel work, but now it seems, it was all deliberate.

As Xiao Zhen left, Ye Jingli could no longer hold back, abandoning all her pride, clutching her messy hair, she cried bitterly on the bed.

Why did she let her life turn out this way? If possible, she’d wish to erase her disgraceful past and start anew seriously, yet now it’s impossible.

She wanted to muster courage earlier, to question why Xiao Zhen no longer loved her, but in the end, she couldn’t do it.
