Chapter 17

"No, you can't!" The woman shook her head wildly, tears spilling down her cheeks. "Sun Nan, we can't get divorced. I'm pregnant with your child!"

Sun Nan froze. Seeing a glimmer of hope, the woman's eyes lit up. "That's right, Sun Nan. I'm carrying your child. We can't divorce. Listen to me..."

Shen Luoluo blinked.

[Oh, wow. She's pregnant too? Let me see whose baby it is.]

The three people listening pricked up their ears. Zhao Yuan had a pretty good idea who the father was.

[Sure enough, the baby's father is Sun Nan's dad!]

Sun Nan had clearly guessed it too. Rather than let the woman finish, he slapped her again.

"Sun Nan! Stop it!" The older man could no longer stand by. He stepped forward and helped the woman off the floor.

Clinging to him, the woman sobbed. "Darling, now that it's come to this, we can't hide it anymore! Please, just tell Sun Nan the truth!"

Everyone watching the drama unfold was stunned. What was going on? Was there more to the story?

Shen Luoluo paused too. Had she skimmed the information too quickly and missed something?

[Let me check—]

Zhao Yuan and Shen Jiayan exchanged a look. Having front-row seats to the drama was the best!

Shen Xiche, a newcomer to the spectacle, was still a little lost.

Shen Luoluo searched through the Intelligence System and was a little shocked when she found the truth.

[Huh? Sun Nan's wife was already his dad's mistress before she married him!]

Zhao Yuan's eyes went round. There really was a twist, and it was one she never could have predicted.

[So that's what happened. Sun Nan's dad introduced her to him. That story about wanting a Marriage Alliance because of her family background was all a lie! She'd been Sun Nan's dad's kept mistress all along. Everything had been fine—until she got pregnant!]

[Well, the old man's still got it!]

[More importantly, Sun Nan's dad had developed feelings for his mistress and wanted to keep the baby. But he was afraid Sun Nan's mom would find out, so he arranged a so-called Marriage Alliance and turned his mistress into his son's wife—his own daughter-in-law!]

[That way, they could keep seeing each other, and his unborn son would be born into the wealthy family!]

[Um...] Shen Luoluo no longer knew what to make of this revelation. It was too explosive.

The other three, watching the drama from the front row, took a long time to recover. Wealthy families really were something else. Nothing was too outrageous for them—not even setting up their own son!

So Sun Nan had been nothing but a pawn, the poor sucker!

[Wait, Sun Nan's biological mom heard the news. She's coming too!]

The three people who could hear her thoughts: !!!

This show just kept getting better!

Chapter 17

◎Those who cheat will be cheated on in turn! (Ending revised)◎

Sun Nan's mother arrived quickly.

Not long after Shen Luoluo finished looking through the information, she pushed open the door.

She seemed to have come straight from the office. Dressed in a sharp business suit and radiating authority, the first thing she said was, "Sun Nan, let her go."

With that, she took control of the room.

Sun Nan's mother lifted her chin slightly. "Well? What happened?"

Seeing that he could no longer hide it, Sun Hong confessed and told her everything.

It was exactly as Shen Luoluo had said.

Sun Nan's mother was so calm that Zhao Yuan couldn't help muttering, "With something this huge going on between her husband and son, how can she be so composed? Don't tell me she already knew her husband was sleeping with her son's wife?"

[More or less. Sun Nan's mom has always been wary of his dad. After all, Sun Nan isn't Sun Hong's biological son. His real father is Sun Hong's younger brother!] Shen Luoluo had only discovered that when she took a closer look.

Zhao Yuan stared, dumbfounded, then exchanged looks with Shen Jiayan and Shen Xiche. There was more? This family was a complete mess!

But that only made it juicier. Go on, tell them everything!

As if she knew what they wanted to hear, Shen Luoluo continued—

[Sun Nan's mom and Sun Hong's younger brother knew each other long before that. They had feelings for each other, but before either could confess, her family forced her to marry Sun Hong for a Marriage Alliance.]

[It was a Marriage Alliance, with no real affection between them. Not long after the wedding, Sun Hong went abroad to expand his business, leaving her at home.]

[Back then, she lived with Sun Hong's parents and the rest of the family in the main house. His younger brother lived there too. While Sun Hong was away, the two got together—and slept together!]

[Because they're so closely related, Sun Hong still has no idea Sun Nan isn't his biological son!]

After hearing the whole story, Zhao Yuan had no idea what to say. The younger brother had slept with his older brother's wife, and the father had slept with his son's wife. None of them was innocent. They really did deserve one another.

But one question still bothered her: why couldn't anyone in the Sun Family hear Luoluo's thoughts?

The next day, she finally understood why. The Sun Family had gone bankrupt!

Zhao Yuan was having afternoon tea with Zhao Huizhen when she heard the news. Zhao Huizhen had told her herself: according to an inside source, Sun Nan's mother had transferred away all the assets. No one knew where they had gone, but they were no longer in her name. Sun Corporation was now an empty shell!

Moving assets wasn't something that could be done overnight. It seemed Sun Nan's mother really had been preparing for this for a long time.

Zhao Yuan sighed. Still, a family like that had been bound to fall apart sooner or later.

Then something occurred to her. "How did Anya react after Luoluo and the others went back last night?"

"And who was the medicine Luoluo bought for?"

After watching the whole drama over dinner last night, their group had left the restaurant. On the way back, Shen Luoluo spotted a pharmacy and asked her to stop the car so she could buy a few things. The mood on the way home had been noticeably better than it was before dinner.
