A Vengeful Girl novel Chapter 69

Linda stared at Johnson Xia and didn't know what to say.

Some people cried out loud when they suffered. Some laughed and some got mad. But the worst of all were those who remained silent.

Johnson Xia looked exhausted rather than angry. But deep down he must be suffering.

Linda felt so sorry for her father.

She held Charles Mu's hands tightly to help herself stand still. Linda wasn't sure whether they had done the right thing for Johnson Xia.

Neither did she know whether Johnson Xia would prefer never to know these things if he had a choice.

"So that's it. I had been raising someone else's daughter for all these years, " said Johnson Xia after a deep sigh and a long while of silence.

Johnson Xia finally saw why May Shen would show up in front of him after Sherry Nalan was dead.

May Shen cried and told him that Lisa was his own blood.

Johnson Xia believed her and took Lisa in, and then loved her with all his heart.

"So she had already been with Frank Zhou during those five years."

And even Vincent Zhou was May Shen's son.

Johnson Xia was such a pathetic man.

"That's right, Lisa is not your daughter! Hahahah! Johnson Xia, I bet you must be so furious and so eager to kill me." May Shen still knelt down on the ground, but she sounded rather possessed.

May Shen had Vincent Zhou in her first year with Frank Zhou, and there came Lisa in their last year together.

But she wanted more than that. She was sick of hiding in the shadow. She wanted to went back to the Xia clan and claimed everything that belonged to her. She wanted to make Johnson Xia suffer for the rest of his life.

As for Frank Zhou, he died in a car crush several years ago. He was a loyal butler who devoted most of his life to the Xia clan. Therefore, Johnson Xia intentionally promoted Vincent Zhou for his late father's sake, and then made him his father's replacement.

But he never thought that...

"It's not entirely my father's fault. Why did you even come back to my father when you were with the butler? Why don't you just let go?"

Linda managed to picture what happened from their conversations. Her father left May Shen and married Sherry Nalan, Linda's mother, out of family interests, for Sherry Nalan was a well-born lady from a wealthy clan and May Shen's family had come down in the world.

It seemed to Linda that everyone had their rights to choose whatever they wanted. And if it didn't work out, then just let go. She didn't see the point why May Shen had to hold on to it.

"Let go? Why should I ever go easy on such faithless man? Linda Xia, what right have you to condemn me? You are just as pathetic as me. Johnson Xia had already known where you were when you were 15, but he never thought of bringing you back. He did nothing but left you out there alone. Are you still defending him? And if the Mu clan didn't make it clear that they only wanted the eldest daughter of the Xia clan, do you think you could come back?"

"So what's your point?"

"If it weren't for you, My daughter would be the eldest daughter of the Xia clan!"

May Shen knew how much her daughter had loved Charles Mu since they first met, and all her daughter ever wanted was to marry him. So when the Mu clan offered to help the Xia clan and only asked a marriage between the two clans in return, May Shen was more than thrilled.

However... The appearance of Linda had made a complete joke out of Lisa.

May Shen knew she could never get away with it since she had done too much behind Johnson Xia's back. She had already secretly transferred most of the stocks and private assets belonged to Johnson Xia. Even the villa was no longer registered under Johnson Xia's name. So she had nothing to fear.

It didn't matter if Johnson Xia found out what she had done. In that case, May Shen could simply get a divorce and walked out of the front door with half of his money, leaving Johnson Xia the biggest laughing stock among the celebrities in SH city.

"Nonsense... Young Master would never marry your silly daughter. Not even if she were really the eldest daughter of the Xia clan, " snapped Bun harshly.

May Shen snorted, "I'm warning you, it's against the law to hold me like this! It's torture you know! You had better kill me right now! Otherwise, the minute I walk out of this door, I'll take it to the court and sue you for personal injury!"

"Killing you? You are not worthy. Seriously, who do you think you are?" Bun snorted dismissively. Bun was a senior officer in the armed police force, and her words spoke much louder than the Director-General of the Public Security Bureau. So naturally, she couldn't care less what the Director-General thought if she wanted to lock up such a criminal as May Shen.

"I dare you."

"What's past is past. May Shen, don't you try to drive a wedge between us. Do you really think I have no idea about this? It has always been you and Lisa Xia who stopped my father from bringing me back. And I had no intention to come back here and compete with your daughter in the first place. Is that why you arranged that car crash to kill me on the bridge that day? To get rid of your daughter's rival? And tell me why did my father come down with food poison? What have you done to him?"

Doctor Anna Xu had not arrived at the house yet. Though Johnson Xia looked fine so far, Linda was still worried.

Linda's eyes was as cold as ice and her tone harsh as thorns, and every word of hers shamed Johnson Xia.

He did listen to May Shen and thought that Linda's return would ruin the happy domestic life he had with May Shen and Lisa Xia.

"Don't you deserve it? After what you have done to Lisa, I would cut you into pieces and haute you for the rest of your life even after I am dead."

Linda sneered, "What I have done to Lisa? Aren't you ashamed of yourself?"

Bun was pissed off and kicked hard on May Shen, "How can you be over forty and still so shameless? It was your own daughter's doing. How could it be Lady Linda's fault that your daughter ended up drinking the drug prepared by herself?"

Bun knew exactly where to hit to make May Shen suffer the most. May Shen was shaking in a cold sweat, and her delicate make-up was completely ruined by now.

"That's enough, Bun. Tie her up and send her to the Public Security Bureau, " said Charles Mu coldly, but his words practically sentenced her to death.

Trying to kill her own husband and step daughter.That's enough for May Shen to spend the rest of her life in jail.

"Mother!"

Lisa Xia screamed while running into the living room. Her hair was messy and so was her clothing. Johnson Xia suddenly felt more humiliated.

"What are you doing? Father, aren't you going to stop that Linda Xia?! How could you let them do this to my mother?"

Lisa ran to May Shen and knelt down besides her, and then screeched at everyone in the room.

She had just woken up from a nap when she heard the noise downstairs, so she hid aside and saw what just happened...

But... She was not Johnson Xia's daughter... And Vincent Zhou was her brother...

It was too much for her to take in.

But when she saw May Shen who was lying on the ground and was obviously in pain after been kicked by Bun, Lisa Xia could but stood out to defend her own mother.

May Shen looked at Lisa Xia with deep sorrow in her eyes, and then she caressed Lisa Xia's head with her shaking hands and said, "Johnson, I know I have done something terrible to you, things I shouldn't have done. But since we have been together for all these years, can I have ten more minutes? There're something I want to talk to Lisa."

Johnson Xia sighed, "Fine."

May Shen then whispered in Lisa's ear, "There's no more place for both of us in the Xia clan. But I had it arranged for you already. When they take me away, you go back upstairs to your room, and there's a note on the third drawer of your dresser. Follow the note and find the man... He will look after you for me..."
