Defrosting The Cold Young Master-Chapter 498 - 499: Shameless Blackmail

Chapter 498: Chapter 499: Shameless Blackmail

All she wanted was to ensure that Qiao Yi could never have children. That way, she could hold Qiao Yi’s weakness over her, manipulate her, make her feel inferior in their family, and have her serve her and her son for life.

That was all she intended to do.

She couldn’t understand how things had spiraled out of control.

Qiao Yi loved her son so much that she was willing to sever ties with her family. With no backing from her maternal home, and under the impression that she couldn’t have children, how could she dare to divorce her son?

She followed her son, first to their home to get the household registration book, and then to the Bureau of Civil Affairs.

The closer they got to the Bureau, the more terrified she became.

Would her son and Qiao Yi really get a divorce?

Would they really have to give Qiao Yi 80 percent of their wealth?

Her son had started his business while in college and it was only after graduation that the company gradually got on track. Over the years, they had made some money, but it was far from being rich.

If Qiao Yi took away 80 percent, how much would they have left?

No!

They couldn’t get a divorce!

She couldn’t let her son divorce Qiao Yi!

If her son lost Qiao Yi because of her machinations, her son would definitely hate her. Additionally, Qiao Yi would also take her son’s money.

If that were the outcome, not only would her plan come to nothing, but she would also lose more than she gained!

They must not divorce!

No!

She chased after Zhang Heyuan into the Bureau of Civil Affairs. Upon seeing Qiao Yi, she bypassed Zhang Heyuan, ran to Qiao Yi and fell to her knees in front of her, crying like rain, “Yiyi, it’s all my fault. Please, don’t divorce Ah Yuan!”

“Having someone else carry Ah Yuan’s child was my idea. Ah Yuan had no idea about it. I am almost sixty, and you haven’t been able to have children since you married Ah Yuan. I was too impatient, so I stole Ah Yuan’s sperm to do an in vitro fertilization. It was all me, Ah Yuan, had nothing to do with it!”

She grabbed Qiao Yi’s clothes, her face covered in tears as she pleaded, “Yiyi, please, don’t divorce Ah Yuan! Ah Yuan loves you. You’ve been married to Ah Yuan for so many years without having children and he has never mentioned anything about it. He never wanted to divorce you. How can you let something so small break up all these years of your relationship?”

“The issue about the child, it’s all my fault. I realize my mistake. Please, give me one chance. I’ll take the child back to our hometown. I’ll raise the child myself and ensure you and Ah Yuan don’t have to worry about a thing.”

“Please, Yiyi, I beg you, I was foolish, please forgive me. I beg you, in front of all.”

It was the peak hour at the Bureau and people were coming and going.

Her heartbreaking cries, each one containing the word ‘mother,’ the sight of an old woman kneeling and begging a young woman, immediately drew a crowd.

Many people looked over curiously, some even stepping closer to get a better look.

Qiao Yi, both embarrassed and furious, stepped back angrily and glared at Zhang Heyuan, “Zhang Heyuan, have you no shame?”

Zhang Heyuan’s face turned bright red in embarrassment. He bent down to pull his mother up, “Mom, stop this. You’re embarrassing yourself in front of all these people. Mom, please get up!”

“I won’t get up! Unless Yiyi forgives me, I won’t get up!” Mother Zhang sobbed uncontrollably, “It’s all my fault, everything is my fault. You and your wife had such a loving relationship, but because of me, because of this old fool, I ruined your relationship, forcing your wife to want a divorce. I am such a fool, I might as well be dead. At least in death, I won’t be a burden to you two anymore!”
