The question of where Mother Zhuang was had become like a disease residing in her heart.
Now that Mi Nuo mentioned her mother, she narrowed eyes and stopped in her footsteps. Taking into account the child in her tummy, she held back from rushing up to Mi Nuo and questioning her.
Trying hard to stay calm, she asked, âYou know where Mother Zhuang is?â
Mi Nuo narrowed her eyes, darkness clouding her gaze for a moment. âI do.â
Zhuang Nainai stared at her, silent.
Mi Nuo was stunned for a few moments. Biting her lips, she couldnât stop herself from saying, âZhuang Nainai, as long as you leave Mr. Si and the Imperial Group, Iâll tell you where your mother is.â
A fierce glint came into her eyes as she said this.
At the same time, she gazed past Zhuang Nainai and looked at the tall figure in a suit outside the conference room.
Mother Zhuang had always been the source of division between Zhuang Nainai and Si Zhengting. As long as she were to repeatedly use Mother Zhuang to estrange the two of them, they would never be able to truly get together.
As she thought of this, Mi Nuoâs gaze grew excited.
Quick, speak, speak so that Mr. Si will be angry and hurt! she thought.
But the moment Mi Nuo spoke, Zhuang Nainaiâs eyes had narrowed.
Leave Mr. Si and the Imperial Group?
As always!
They were always using Mother Zhuang to threaten her.
Zhuang Nainai tightened her fists and stared at Mi Nuo, her eyes seemingly going to spout out fire.
The entire conference room was now silent, and even Dazhuang, who was standing by the door, was shocked stiff by the hostility emanating from the two of them.
Si Zhengting knew of Zhuang Nainaiâs meeting and, having finished his work, had decided to look for her and monitor her food intake.
As such, he had walked down to look for her upon learning that the meeting had ended.
But as everyone made their way out of the conference room, heâd noticed that Zhuang Nainai still hadnât walked out with them.
At the thought of this, he strode forward, intending to look for her in the conference room itself.
Just as he walked to the entrance to the room, he heard the words of Mi Nuo. Subconsciously stopping in his footsteps, his whole body froze where he was.
Deep in his heart, a sense of fear began rising.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Mother Zhuang was just too important to Zhuang Nainai, and Mother Zhuang was so important that he sometimes felt that he and their child were no match for how Zhuang Nainai felt toward her.
This self-deprecating thought flashed across his mind, but he began despising himself a moment later.
In the past, he had been jealous because of how he had thought Nainai had abandoned him because of Mother Zhuang. And now?
Why was he still so distrustful of their relationship?
Si Zhengting narrowed his eyes at the thought of this. Suddenly not wanting Zhuang Nainai to have to be stuck between a rock and a hard place, he decidedly strode forward to enter the room. His mouth imperceptibly moving, he was just about to speak when...
Zhuang Nainai suddenly took a deep breath. Watching Mi Nuoâs cold gaze and Si Zhengtingâs anxious one, she gave a cold smile. âDo you think that by saying this, I will believe you?â
That sentence made Si Zhengtingâs words stop in his throat.
Mi Nuo, on the other hand, balled her fists. âWhat do you mean?â
Zhuang Nainai raised her head and replied strongly, âWhat I mean is, letâs not talk about whether you have news of my mother or not. Even if you do, what gives you the confidence that for the sake of it Iâll be able to leave the father of my child, the love of my life, and the Imperial Group?â
