“Are you deaf?” Gu Tianhao’s eyes showed not just impatience but fury. “You’re always by Gu Mei’s side, can’t you see what a mess she’s become?”

Chu He, forgetting even to cry, stared blankly at the heartless and unkind Gu Tianhao.

She had never hated Gu Tianhao more than at this moment in her life.

“Even if Xiaomei is ugly, she is still our daughter, the fruit of our love,” she painfully reminded Gu Tianhao. “You can hate me for offending Huo Sicheng and Gu Qingcheng, that’s fine. I can kneel before Gu Qingcheng and beg her to spare us. But Xiaomei is innocent. She’s still young and doesn’t understand the cruelty of people, that’s why she was schemed against and left disfigured and paralyzed in bed…”

“Tianhao, you can’t be so heartless. You can do whatever you want with me, but please don’t give up on our daughter Gu Mei, okay?” She pleaded with hope in her heart, “Xiaomei represents the love between us. She grew up in our love. Please protect her, seek treatment for her. She can definitely recover and shine again in the elite circles, making you proud.”

“Treat Gu Mei and let her shine in high society again? Make me proud?” Gu Tianhao coldly confronted Chu He. “You’re really into your role. Do you think I don’t know how the entire elite circle views you and Gu Mei? You’re a mistress, and Gu Mei is the daughter of a mistress, relying on my favor to bully other ladies. The real pride of the family is Gu Qingcheng. She’s the top lady, a classical dancer, the head of Di Yi, and the most respected person in the elite circles. Gu Mei isn’t even worthy to carry Gu Qingcheng’s shoes.”

When Chu He was called a mistress by Gu Qingcheng, she was full of hatred.

Now, hearing her husband Gu Tianhao bluntly call her a mistress, she was stunned.

What was more outrageous was that Gu Tianhao, who never cared about Gu Qingcheng’s life or death, was now praising her and even trampling on his daughter Gu Mei.

Staring blankly at Gu Tianhao, she never thought that the man she had shared a bed with for many years could be so heartless.

Despair, heartbreak, pain, and finally, her heart was filled with hatred.

She furiously and hysterically roared at him, “How can you call me a mistress? You clearly know that we met first, and you married Mu Xia later! According to seniority, I am your rightful wife, and Mu Xia is the mistress! My daughter Gu Mei is the legitimate young lady of the Gu family, and Gu Qingcheng is the second miss!”

“What are you talking about?” Gu Tianhao glared at Chu He displeasedly.

“You’re just one of my mistresses, while Mu Xia is my lawfully wedded wife, and Gu Qingcheng is her daughter, the legitimate young lady of the Gu family. I’ve indulged you and Gu Mei for so many years, allowing you to turn the world upside down, haven’t you? Don’t you recognize your own status?”

“Tianhao…” Chu He’s heart was deeply wounded by Gu Tianhao, her eyes red and swollen with despair, “You’re really heartless, too heartless to me…”

“Heartless? I’ve kept you and Gu Mei in luxury for so many years. Even when

Gu Mei snatched Qin Jun, Gu Qingcheng’s boyfriend, I indulged her and Qin Jun’s affair. By now, you and your daughter should be content!” Gu Tianhao looked indifferently at Chu He. “Now, only my daughter Gu Qingcheng can bring glory to the Gu family and the Gu surname. Chu He, it’s time for you to leave the stage.”

Each word, saying that only Gu Qingcheng could bring glory to the Gu family and that Chu He should leave the stage, was like a knife brutally carving into

Chu He’s heart.

Pain.

She was so numb with pain that she suddenly felt no more.

“Fight for your own dignity.” Gu Tianhao pointed to the divorce papers, his tone commanding as he forced Chu He to sign, “Chu He, sign it now.”

Tears still rolled from Chu He’s eyes, but she no longer cried as heart-wrenchingly as before.

She numbly looked at Gu Tianhao and said, “Can you give me one day? I will sign. I won’t take any clothes or jewelry from the Gu family. I will sign the divorce papers and leave the Gu family with our daughter like a stray dog, but give me one day. I just want to be alone.”

Gu Tianhao looked steadily at Chu He and finally nodded. “Okay, I’ll give you one day.”

Anyway, he and Gu Qingcheng had a contract limitation, and when he divorced Chu He was up to him. Divorcing early meant getting the inheritance sooner, so giving Chu He one more day wouldn’t change his decision.

Chu He lay on the ground watching Gu Tianhao leave the study step by step. The moment the study door closed behind Gu Tianhao, her eyes filled with hatred.

She didn’t know how long she had lain there until the butler came, bandaged her bleeding hands, and helped her back to her room. She chose to go to her daughter Gu Mei’s room.

When Gu Mei saw her mother Chu He looking lifelessly at her, her hands wrapped in bandages, she was shocked, “Mom, what happened to you?” Chu He looked at the servants and doctors, “You all leave.”

The doctor and servants quickly left the room. Chu He slowly walked to Gu Mei’s bedside and sat down, looking at the disfigured Gu Mei and forcing a smile.

“Xiaomei, Mommy is okay.”

“You look like this, something big must have happened,” Gu Mei said angrily.

“Did that bitch Gu Qingcheng trouble you again? Don’t worry, the doctor told me I’ll be able to walk soon. I’ll kill Gu Qingcheng myself.”

Chu He didn’t speak, just looked painfully at Gu Mei, filled with regret, “Xiaomei, Mommy is powerless, I’ve lost to Gu Qingcheng. I can’t help you take revenge anymore.”

“What?” Gu Mei looked at Chu He in shock. “Mom, why are you saying this? Didn’t we agree? You would do whatever it takes to get money for me, and I would spend it to have Gu Qingcheng and her bastard child killed!”

Chu He looked at Gu Mei in despair, “I can’t get any money, and I have to leave without a penny.”

Gu Mei was shocked, “Mom, what do you mean leave without a penny? What nonsense are you talking about?”

“Your father wants me to divorce him. After the divorce, I can’t take any jewelry or money, and I’m not allowed to ask for help from any of his friends. My situation is worse than leaving without a penny, and you are also abandoned by your father.” As Chu He said this, her heart was calm, as if talking about something insignificant.

Gu Mei stared at Chu He, shocked. The next moment, realizing what had happened, she cursed, “Damn Gu Tianhao! How can he be so heartless to us, mother and daughter? Why does he want you to leave without a penny? You are Mrs. Gu, and I am the young lady of the Gu family. Gu Tianhao’s DNA is in my body, he can’t just abandon us.”

“Xiaomei, stop cursing,” Chu He tried to calm Gu Mei. “Cursing is useless. I begged Gu Tianhao many times, but he’s determined to divorce me and drive us out. He’s heartless to the extreme.”

“No divorce!” Gu Mei said angrily, “Mom, you can’t divorce him, not even if you die.. You mustn’t sign, do you understand?”
