“Yes,” Lu Zhaoyang answered. “My mother was already depressed for quite a while and she had ran out without the servants noticing, and that tragedy happened.
“Based on what we know, Ms Lu… Oh no, should be Mrs Huo. Your mother was a mistress that became a proper wife, and that led to Mr Huo renouncing his relationship with the Huo family. Did Mr Huo begrudged your mother-in-law all this while because of that?”
It was obvious he had some backing seeing that this reporter was so bold.
Huo Yunting coldly took a glance at him and the person visibly shrunk.
“So what if I hate her? Me loving her daughter is more than enough, what and how she is doing had nothing to do with me.”
He had not forgiven what Xue Yuming had done until now, but when that hatred is compared to Lu Zhaoyang, it was nothing.
And Lu Zhaoyang may have looked calm beside him, she was screaming inside.
Her draft was all for nothing!
The reporter swallowed hard, before digging down to ask, “So you mean to say you have nothing to do with her death? We heard that Madam Xue was locked in the capital, was this part of your arrangement? Mr Huo, you not allowing her to meet her own daughter, perhaps she had missed her too much that she had decided to end it in front of your mansion to spite you!”
Huo Yunting nonchalantly smirked. “Where are you from? You seem to have an awful lot of details.”
“….” The reporter that was being pointed out suddenly perked up as the chilly gaze stared down on him, goosebumps started appearing all over him.
“Mr Huo, please don’t deflect and answer the question. The public deserves to know the truth.”
Huo Yunting sniggered. “Alright, then lets address the most basic question. So you said I had locked here up, so how did she get out? Are you suggesting that the bodyguards of the Huo family could not even look after a sickly woman?”
As he said that, he swept his gaze across the hall.
And the reporters present looked at each other, his manner was just too imposing!
Lu Zhaoyang quickly added. “My mother had been sickly and was suffering from the sickness all these years…”
As she mentioned that, Lu Zhaoyang bit her lips, her emotions was clearly much more downcast than before.
“Perhaps she was tired of this suffering, plus she had made some mistakes in the past, so that she had decided to leave this world.”
She choked on her words and looked down.
Each of their sharp and pointed questions reminded her of the fact her mother was dead.
Huo Yunting looked at her saddened look and could no longer bother with this farce of a press conference. He immediately threw down the gauntlet.
“Anyone claiming that I locked her up, or stopped them from meeting each other, show me your evidence! If you are not able, then use your goddamn brains for a little, I, Huo Yunting had already married her daughter, do I even need to act against a sickly old lady? I don’t have the time to fool around with you lot, good bye!”
These words were not only strong, but also ridiculing. As he finished, he grabbed Lu Zhaoyang and left.
As they entered the elevator, Lu Zhaoyang kept silent and simply laid in his arms.
At that moment, his handphone rang.
Huo Yunting looked at the caller and picked up all annoyed. “Yes?”
“Boss, Lu Bai had not returned since he went out this morning, he’s not even answering my phone!”
The caller was Yan Se and she was driving around looking for Lu Bai.
“Get Huo Li to help, I’m busy now.” He then looked down at Lu Zhaoyang’s beautiful apricot eyes, and suddenly pivoted, “Maybe he had went out to play.”
