"What did you say? It was you who pushed me to Lu Wenzhou back then?"
Mrs. Qiao snorted coldly.
"Otherwise, do you really think that Lu Wenzhou is the hero who saves the beauty? You don't have to think about it, how could a person of Lu Wenzhou's status go to such a remote alley for no reason.
If your brother and I hadn't set up a trap to trick him into coming over, you wouldn't have had the wonderful life you have had these past three years.
But you are not satisfied and want to climb into Mrs. Lu's position.
Don't even think about it. With such a shameless mother, there is no rich family in City B who dares to marry you.
You must return to Lu Wenzhou no matter what, otherwise, I will tell everything about your mother. "
The old lady gritted her teeth as she spoke.
It was as if Joey had no blood relationship with her.
The blood on Joey's forehead flowed down his cheek and into his mouth.
The taste of blood quickly spread throughout his mouth.
She suddenly felt sick.
I feel disgusted that I have such a family member.
Her grandmother teamed up with her uncle's cousin to push her to Lu Wenzhou like a commodity.
The saddest thing is that she had no idea and thought she had found true love.
For three years, she loved that man with all her heart.
In order to be with him, she gave up her favorite career as a lawyer and her desire for marriage.
She was devoted to Lu Wenzhou and became Lu Wenzhou’s secret lover for three years without any complaints.
It turns out that all of this is just a transaction of power and sex in the eyes of others, and all of this is thanks to the people closest to him.
Joey wiped the blood on his face and smiled bitterly.
There was an unprecedented stubbornness in her voice, "I will no longer be at your mercy, nor will I return to Lu Wenzhou. From now on, whether the Qiao family is alive or dead, it has nothing to do with me."
After saying that, she turned and walked outside.
After walking a few steps, I saw my father standing at the door.
He had an expression of disbelief on his face.
There were tears in his eyes.
Father Qiao covered his chest with one hand and stared at Old Mrs. Qiao in disbelief.
He said in a weak voice: "Mom, it's because I'm not filial enough, or I didn't sell my life to the Qiao family enough, that you did this to my daughter."
When he thought that his daughter was set up by his dearest mother, Father Qiao felt a stabbing pain in his heart.
Beads of sweat instantly covered his forehead.
Joey felt something was wrong and immediately ran over to help him.
"Dad, don't be angry. I'm fine. You just had a heart operation, so you can't be angry."
Father Qiao looked at her distressedly and stretched out his big hand to gently caress the wound on her forehead.
His voice was low and hoarse: "I'm sorry, it's dad who didn't protect you well."
"Dad, stop talking. I'll take you to the hospital."
Joey helped his father get into the car and went straight to the hospital.
After the doctor checked, he told Joey that the patient was too tired after the operation, and the stimulation just now was too great, which had a great impact on the postoperative recovery.
Required to be hospitalized for observation for a few days.
After Joey settled his father, he walked to the corridor alone and called his father's secretary with his cell phone.
After getting to know it, I learned that the company had a cooperation project with the Lu family. Seeing that the prospect was good, my father invested most of the company's funds in it.
But just yesterday, the Lu family suddenly terminated the cooperation and said that his father leaked secrets to his colleagues.
If this is the case, not only will Qiao not be able to recover the funds, but his father will also be investigated.
Facing jail time.
Joey's hand holding the phone tightened again and again.
She knew that project was a newly developed area for Lu.
The prospects are indeed promising. If successful, the profits will be doubled.
She didn't believe that someone like her father, who kept his promises so much, would do such a thing.
Unless someone is deliberately making things difficult.
The expression on Joey's face gradually turned cold.
He immediately took out his cell phone and called Lu Wenzhou.
I called several times in a row, but was hung up on all of them.
It wasn't until the fifth call that a cold and ruthless voice appeared over there.
"Regret it?"
Joey bit his lip and tried to calm down.
Her voice was hoarse from exhaustion: "Lu Wenzhou, my father is not the kind of person who breaks his word. If you want to take revenge on me, just do it to me. Don't slander his reputation for the rest of his life.
He has always valued his reputation more than his life. He just had surgery. Do you know that if you treat him like this, it will kill him? "
When Lu Wenzhou heard these words, he froze at first, and then a glint appeared in his deep eyes.
"Want to save your father?"
He smiled softly and said, "Find me in the hospital parking lot."
Although Joey guessed that it was Lu Wenzhou's hand, it was another thing to hear him admit it with his own ears.
She didn't expect that he really didn't care about the three years they spent together.
Whenever he had any affection for her, even for just a moment, he would never be so cold and heartless.
Thinking of this, Joey suddenly felt a lump in his throat and his eyes were moist.
She raised her head, stared at the dazzling lights on the corridor, and said coldly: "Lu Wenzhou, just wait, I will definitely seek justice for my father, and I will not let you wrongly accuse a good man for no reason!"
Lu Wenzhou smiled dumbly: "Okay, let me see how you seek justice later."
Five minutes later.
Joey found Lu Wenzhou’s car in the underground garage.
Chen Zhuo saw her coming and waved to her: "Secretary Qiao, Mr. Lu is waiting for you in the car."
He opened the car door, let Joey sit in, and then walked very far away sensibly.
Lu Wenzhou saw Joey come in and immediately saw the wound on Joey's forehead.
The dark eyes were instantly stained with blood.
"Who did it for you?"
He grabbed Joey's chin and looked at her with dark eyes.
Joey turned his head and said angrily: "You don't have to worry about it."
"Joy, is this what you said you can live without me? Just live like this!"
After saying that, he took out the ointment from the storage box and helped Joey apply it on the wound.
Then he found the ugliest Band-Aid, which he bought when Joey punished him last time when he accidentally bruised his face because he drank too much.
Seeing the ugly band-aid, Joey ducked back and said, "I won't put it on."
Lu Wenzhou pulled her into his arms and forced the band-aid on her forehead.
After applying it, he bit her lip in retaliation and mocked: "It's so ugly!"
Joey turned pale with anger.
He had already set up the Qiao family like this, yet he still had the intention to play tricks on her.
"Lu Wenzhou, how exactly do you want to let my dad go?"
Lu Wenzhou stared at her with his deep eyes, and a cold laugh escaped from his throat.
"It's very simple. Come back to me obediently. I promise that not only will your father be fine, but the Qiao family will also be restored to its original state."
