He was even more enraged by the fact that she said she would give him half of whatever she received, then lied that Mo Yixuan only gave her 1.5 million dollars. She even started emigration procedures, preparing to disappear without a trace, playing him like a fool. After all the times he treated her so well in the past and loved her for so many years, she had always been using him like a puppet.

As Xia Yuwei looked at the report in her hands, her face grew pale and her hands started to tremble. If anyone from the Mo family saw this report, she didn’t dare imagine what the consequences would be. She even wondered if they would kill her.

“Alright… Senior, please don’t be angry, would you?” Xia Yuwei quickly grabbed hold of Cheng Tao’s hand and her expression changed faster than flipping a page from a book. Her earlier proud and conceited expression was gone, replaced by the look of a pitiful young woman.

“While it was true that I kept this from you, I really didn’t have much of a choice then. I wasn’t even sure myself whose child I was carrying and it wasn’t till I did the NT during my third month of pregnancy that the doctor told me that my child was 17 days older than the reported pregnancy period and by then, I was already married to Mo Yixuan. Senior, I truly didn’t mean to trick you,” Xia Yuwei said as she choked up in tears. She even used one hand to wipe her tears away.

Her pitiful and tearful expression would have made anyone feel sympathetic toward her.

However, Cheng Tao had already lost patience with her.

He shook her hands off him and shouted loudly, “I don’t care when you discovered the truth. Either return my son to me or give me 7.5 million dollars. It’s your choice!”

Why was he the one agreeing to her every request when ultimately, she was the one who became rich? Furthermore, this lousy woman had treated him like a fool from the very beginning. He couldn’t even differentiate her truth from her lies, since she was such an expert in lying.

Xia Yuwei wiped the tears in her eyes. It hadn’t even been that long but she had already shed a lot of tears. Her bloodshot eyes made her seem very pitiful.

She leaned against the wall and bent down, hugging her knees tightly to her, looking extremely aggrieved.

“Senior… please don’t be like this,” Xia Yuwei said as she pouted her red lips pitifully. She wiped her tears as she cried, “I can’t bear to part with the child either but the child is already part of the Mo family. As for money, it’s not that I’m unwilling to part with it but the 15 million dollars Mo Yixuan had agreed to give me as alimony will be paid in installments over 10 years. I would only get 1.5 million dollars a year, which was why I only wired you 750 thousand dollars first. I wasn’t about to break my promise. In the future, I’ll definitely wire half to you each time I receive my annual installment,” Xia Yuwei choked out through sobs and wiped at her tears again.

She looked up and stared tearily at Cheng Tao, hoping that he would stop his threats because of his past feelings for her.

She was obviously not about to give her half of whatever she received. Money was her life, and so taking her money was like asking for her life. She only needed to make it past this one or two months, once her emigration procedures were complete, she could leave this troublesome place to lead a carefree life. She didn’t give a whit about Mo Yixuan or Cheng Tao. Once she left, she wouldn’t even be afraid of her child’s identity being discovered by the Mo household. Anyway, she would be able to launder her 15 million dollars once she was overseas, sell her jewelry and transfer her assets. Mo Yixuan wouldn’t be able to do anything to do. He couldn’t possibly kill her, right? He would be facing the death sentence too if he did that.

Xia Yuwei had already planned it all and she was full of schemes and plots even as tears continued to flow from her eyes.

Cheng Tao scoffed coldly and suddenly picked up Xia Yuwei who was crying so piteously she looked as though her parents had passed on.

“You better not be up to your tricks, Xia Yuwei!” If she tricked him again, she wouldn’t be able to blame him for resorting to extreme measures.
