Marrying the Wrong Husband, Yet Becoming the Enviable Lady of a Wealthy Family

After losing her memory, Mo Xiaotuo enters a flash marriage to continue managing her property but mistakenly marries Luo Chen instead. They agree to divorce after one year. Not long after the weddi...

Chapter 31 Trash, yet worthy of his fantasies.

Noticing Morissa's gaze towards Mr. Luo, Mo Xiaotuo tightened her grip on Mr. Luo's hand.

Luo Chen glared fiercely at Morissa. If he could reveal his identity now, he would have gouged out the woman's eyes.

Trash, he doesn't even deserve to have such fantasies about you!

Seeing how much the man was protecting Mo Xiaotuo, Morissa gritted her teeth angrily, and finally reluctantly returned to the hall with her mother.

In the hall, Mo Tansheng had already instructed his servants to prepare a sumptuous meal.

He had someone investigate Luo Chen's background: a returnee from overseas, sharing the same name as the owner of the Chen Group, and currently working as a director in the marketing department. Considering that Luo Chen was so young to have entered the Chen Group, he was quite optimistic about the young man.

Most importantly, this kid is in the marketing department. As long as he leaks some information and uses some connections, the Mo family can make a living. That's why Yan Bing called Mo Xiaotuo to bring people back.

When Mo Xiaotuo entered and saw such a sumptuous meal, he guessed that this was a trap.

The Mo family knew she had no money. Their hospitality was clearly because of Mr. Luo, which made her glance at him with some concern.

Luo Chen gave her a reassuring look and pulled her to sit down.

Morissa quickly walked over and sat down next to Luo Chen, secretly glancing at his handsome face, her heart itching with desire.

When Mo Tansheng saw his daughter's gaze fixed on Luo Chen, he didn't call her away. After all, Mo Xiaotuo was now a wild horse, and it was hard to say whether she would help the Mo family.

With his daughter able to control Luo Chen, things become much easier for him.

However, Yan Bing didn't think so. Even if Luo Chen was a returnee from overseas and the director of the marketing department of Chen's Group, he was still not from a prestigious family. To make a name for oneself in City A, talent alone wasn't enough; one also needed family wealth.

"Lisa, come sit here," she shouted angrily.

“Sit down, that’s enough. Why all the fuss?” Mo Tansheng glared at his wife.

Yan Bing dared not say anything more and obediently sat down next to her husband.

Mo Tansheng looked at Luo Chen with admiration and said with a kind smile, "Luo Chen, I heard that you became the director of the marketing department of Chen's Group. It's not bad that you were able to get into Chen's Group and even get an official position in such a short time!"

Mo Xiaotuo didn't dare to speak, she was too careful not to fall into the trap set by her uncle and aunt.

Luo Chen, however, coldly uttered two words: "It's alright!"

"You're too modest. It's rare to see such a humble junior like you. Come, have a drink with me." Mo Tansheng said, picking up his glass.

"I don't drink!" Luo Chen even skipped the motion of picking up a glass.

Mo Tansheng put down his cup somewhat awkwardly, and a hint of disappointment flashed across Morissa's eyes.

Mo Xiaotuo noticed the change in Morissa's expression and concluded that Morissa must have tampered with the wine. She was surprised that Mr. Luo was so perceptive as to have noticed it.

"Eat, eat, the food will get cold soon." He said, putting food on Mo Xiaotuo's plate.

Mo Xiaotuo asked bluntly, "Just tell me why you made me come back!"

Mo Tansheng gave Mo Xiaotuo a cold look, and Yan Bing also felt that Mo Xiaotuo's tone was not respectful enough to her husband.

Morissa burst out: "Our family has raised you for so many years, and now that we're in trouble, can't we ask you for a helping hand?"

“Support me, huh…” Mo Xiaotuo sneered, looking at the three faces she would recognize even if they were ashes, she said excitedly, “How have you supported me? Apart from paying my tuition in my first year of university, I earned all my tuition and living expenses by working. I haven’t spent a single penny of your money.”

That's right, she remembers the first year clearly. In the years that followed, her uncle said he gave her living expenses, but her aunt withheld them all, and they never reached her hands.

In the dead of winter, she attended classes during the day and delivered food at night, never taking a single day off during summer or winter vacation.

Upon hearing Mo Xiaotuo's words, Mo Tansheng realized that the living expenses he had given Mo Xiaotuo over the years had all been embezzled by that fool Yan Bing.

When Yan Bing met her husband's angry gaze, she deliberately turned her face away as if she hadn't seen it.

Morissa felt guilty because her mother had used all that money to buy her new clothes and jewelry.

"I never thought your uncle's family would do anything. You're only a freshman in college, and you're already earning your own money to study. Tsk tsk tsk, and you live in a villa area. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at if word gets out?" Luo Chen couldn't help but make a sarcastic remark.

"What's so funny? She's not my dad's biological daughter. Besides, she didn't cost much. What about her sickly brother? Ever since he went to that school, he's been spending tens of thousands every semester. I don't even get that much pocket money in a semester." Seeing the little bitch exposing her family's dirty laundry, Morissa didn't hold back and brought up the sickly girl.

Sure enough, when the topic of her younger brother's expenses came up, Mo Xiaotuo was speechless.

Seeing that Mo Xiaotuo dared not refute anymore, Morissa said smugly, "I heard that you also paid living expenses for that sickly man this month. Not bad, it seems your husband has a good income."

Luo Chen remembered that Angel's Voice's living expenses were not cheap, and she, as a student, could not afford them at all. The only possibility was the inheritance left by her mother.

However, if the inheritance contains a lot of money, she would most likely transfer the boy to another school directly, which means that the money in the will is probably only enough for the living expenses of the siblings.

“How much can my husband earn? He still has to pay the mortgage.” Mo Xiaotuo quickly spoke up for Mr. Luo to prevent these greedy guys from targeting him.

Seeing that Mo Xiaotuo was protecting him, Luo Chen moved his hand away from under the table.

Mo Xiaotuo's palms were sweating nervously when Mr. Luo suddenly grabbed her hand, and she glanced at him nervously.

"Speak, what do you want me to do?" Luo Chen felt disgusted by their faces.

"Hehe... It's nothing special, just called you all back for a get-together. Xiao Tuo, don't worry about your brother's expenses, I'll take care of that." Mo Tansheng realized that to get Luo Chen's help, he had to appease Mo Xiao Tuo first.

Mo Xiaotuo was most worried about her younger brother, and immediately understood what her uncle meant.

This was to persuade Luo Chen to help her, otherwise she would stop all of her brother's expenses.

She was very worried about what would happen if her younger brother didn't go to school, and she didn't know which hospital in the area could treat him. Even if she could get treatment, she would need money.

On one side was her younger brother, with whom she depended for survival, and on the other side was Mr. Luo, who had always lent her a helping hand. At this moment, she was conflicted.

Luo Chen naturally picked up on the threat in Mo Tansheng's tone, and he was somewhat curious about her choice. However, considering how long they had known each other, he knew she couldn't compare to his younger brother, so he gave up hope.

Seeing that her father's words silenced the little bitch, Morissa added fuel to the fire: "Even though my father's company is facing great difficulties, he still hasn't forgotten to pay your brother's tuition. Mo Xiaotuo, do you have any conscience?!"
