Han Qing was livid.
How could that ungrateful bastard Ye Hao even mention divorcing her daughter during this sensitive time and even got to the courts to file for a divorce?
Xia Jingshu kept sighing. She felt extremely upset and annoyed at the thoughts of how chaotic things seemed within the household at the moment.
“Please take a seat,” she said as she pointed to a chair nearby and motioned for Han Qing to sit.
However, Han Qing was so angry that she refused to sit. She stuck her hands on her hips and paced around the main hall.
“Let me make this clear, she will not divorce him. Don’t you dare think that Xiao Xue is a pushover. How could he marry her in order to acknowledge his child then turn around and divorce her after her child has adopted his last name? He must be dreaming if he thinks that he’ll be able to divorce her!” Han Qing yelled angrily. Her voice was so loud that everyone at home could hear her.
The Ye family maids stood nearby and looked on at the argument unfolding in the main hall.
This place seemed like something out of a daytime soap opera. Wang Lan’s parents were here in the morning to create a huge fuss and now, Han Xue and her mother were creating another commotion here.
In any case, this household had never once been at peace. They were already getting used to this shambolic household where arguments unfolded every day.
Xia Jingshu placed a hand over her heart where there was a dull ache.
“I will speak to my son about this, so please calm down first,” she said. She didn’t even know how to comfort Han Qing anymore. Han Qing’s voice was as loud as a trumpet and she had created such a fuss that the entire household was now aware of what was going on.
Han Qing might not mind announcing this embarrassing news to the whole world but Xia Jingshu still valued her pride and dignity.
“Speak to your son? Ha ha…” Han Qing laughed in an exaggerated manner before she said, “Why don’t you ask your son what he’s trying to do first? Xiao Xue did not step out of line at all during her marriage to Ye Hao. She has treated you with respect and did her best to win Ye Hao’s favor. She has sacrificed so much but yet, this is what she gets in return? You’ve gone too far! Does Han Xue have to leave just because He Xiyan has come back alive? Is Ye Hao trying to bring her back into the house?”
Han Qing grew progressively more livid as she spoke and her spit flew everywhere like a madwoman.
Han Xue was still crying in the living room. The notification statement from the court was beside her and it stated that her husband Ye Hao had submitted his divorce application to the courts and was requesting the courts to grant them a divorce.
She bit her lip resentfully. She had spent so much effort in order to return to his side but this was how he treated her in return. He hadn’t even discussed this matter with her before he headed to the courts.
Han Qing quickly put her arms around her daughter’s shoulders when she noticed that she was still crying.
“Alright, Xiao Xue. Stop crying or others might think that you’re a joke,” Han Qing said loudly as though she was afraid that her voice couldn’t be heard throughout the entire house. “Since Ye Hao wants to divorce you, he should communicate this to you personally.”
Han Xue’s fingers twisted around her clothes. She was not comforted by her mother’s words at all.
Xia Jingshu had no choice but to dig out her handphone and dial her son’s number.
“Ah Hao, please come back first. You started this matter so you have to come home to resolve it. I swear I’ll end up in the hospital again if you continue to refuse to come home to deal with it,” she said angrily the moment Ye Hao picked up her call.
Soon, she heard Ye Hao’s voice saying, “Mom, I’ll be home soon. Ignore Han Xue until I get home. I’ll deal with her myself.”
Then, he hung up the line.
Xia Jingshu took a deep breath and closed her eyes tightly.
—
30 minutes later, a Bugatti drove into the driveway of the mansion.
Ye Hao emerged from the car.
His face was extremely pale and he clearly looked upset and annoyed.
