Chu Yihan beat him to it, sneering, "You know now that he was the one in the wrong?"
"Didn't you always say that he wasn't wrong, that he was sensible, that he knew to put the bigger picture first, and that he was outstanding?"
"And what exactly happened back then? Shouldn't you explain it clearly?"
"Tell us!" Marshal Chu also wanted to hear her tell him what had happened back then.
Madam Chu naturally didn't dare speak of what had happened back then. Once she revealed the truth, there would probably be no good outcome for either her or her son.
However, now that things had come to this, could she really get away with saying nothing?
Marshal Chu narrowed his eyes and sneered. "If you don't tell me, then I'll have no choice but to divorce you."
Madam Chu gritted her teeth. Between her son's life and her own, she ultimately chose her son.
She prostrated herself on the floor and lowered her haughty head. "I—I was wrong. It was all my fault. I let greed cloud my judgment. I was too protective of my son. I was afraid she would steal you from me, afraid that her son would fight my Qingyun for the right to inherit the family fortune and its assets, so I..."
Madam Chu could barely continue. She knew that if she went on, the rest of her life would be ruined.
However, she truly couldn't give up the chance to save her son.
Because she knew very well that only if her son was all right could she have a good future.
That was right. As long as her son could smoothly inherit the family business in the future, she had nothing to fear.
After letting out a long breath, she calmed down considerably
