"It’s alright, don’t say anything, just come back with me and get some good sleep."
Lin Xinlan stayed in the villa for two days, but Rong Shaoze did not return.
She spent each day watching television; aside from that, she did not know what else to do.
Sometimes, she felt exceedingly weak. Rong Shaoze had hurt her time and time again, yet she could endure it over and over and still continue to live with him—it truly was a miracle.
However, she was very clear that all her endurance was for a better tomorrow.
She could not go to jail, she needed to break away from Rong Shaoze, she needed money!
These were her goals, and she had to achieve them, otherwise, all her suffering would be in vain.
After flipping through the television channels for a while, she felt so bored that she turned off the TV and planned to go upstairs.
Just then, her phone rang. It was Qiao Yiyang calling.
She did not want to answer, letting the phone ring on its own, not expecting that it would ring continuously without stopping.
With no other choice, she reluctantly answered the call.
"Miss Lin, are you online right now? Hurry and go check. Just search for Rong Shaoze’s name and you’ll know!" Qiao Yiyang spoke gravely, with the tone of someone announcing a major event.
Upon hearing Rong Shaoze’s name, Lin Xinlan lost interest.
"Mhm, I’ll check it out later. Mr. Qiao, if you don’t need anything else, I’m going to hang up."
Without waiting for him to speak, she pressed the end call button.
She couldn’t continue being friends with Qiao Yiyang, as it would harm him, as well as herself.
Just as she took a step to leave, a servant rushed in screaming, "Young Madam, something terrible has happened!"
Lin Xinlan turned her head, her eyes revealing confusion.
Lao Gu hurried out, asking anxiously, "What’s with all the panic, what happened?"
"The young master..."
Lao Gu grew even more anxious. "What about the young master?!"
"I can’t explain clearly, just go online and see for yourself, it’s all over the news about the young master and... the Young Madam..."
Lin Xinlan’s gaze became sharp; it was actually about her?
Lao Gu instructed the servant to bring a computer and place it on the living room table, then started searching online.
The news that appeared shocked them deeply.
Every news website was reporting the same story: Rong Shaoze accused his wife of adultery and personally murdered her unborn child.
Seeing this striking red headline, Lao Gu’s face turned pale with shock.
Who leaked this news?!
This was disastrous, it would ruin the young master’s reputation, surely leading to his utter downfall with no chance of recovery!!!
Lao Gu stood there frozen, while Lin Xinlan quickly regained her composure.
She pushed him aside and took hold of the mouse to scroll down.
Below was a photo of a luxurious swimming pool, where, under dim lighting, a yet undispersed red liquid was floating.
Lin Xinlan felt a sharp pain in her heart, she closed her eyes for a moment, then slowly opened them.
The news didn’t contain much information, just a few brief statements, mainly claiming that Rong Shaoze suspected she had another man outside, doubted the child was his and therefore threw her into the swimming pool and killed her child with his own hands.
This was indeed true, but who had leaked it?
Lin Xinlan looked toward Lao Gu who immediately snapped back to attention, stood up, and shouted fiercely, "Call all the servants over, I want to see which audacious person had the guts to leak this matter out!"
