Lei Haozi's wife knew that this might be the only child in her life, so she found Phyllis privately and told him everything, hoping to keep the child.
Phyllis was not surprised. He had countless women around him, so it was normal for such a situation to happen occasionally. Without any hesitation, she threw two stacks of banknotes to her and asked her to have the abortion.
Her wife was disappointed by Phyllis's condition. She didn't take the money, turned around and left crying. After returning home, she fell into deep hesitation.
She wanted to keep the child and fulfill her dream of becoming a mother, but ordinary people could not accept such a big cuckold, let alone Lei Haozi, a gangster. Once the matter was exposed, he might even want to kill her.
But if you don't have this child, you may be alone for the rest of your life. Even though you may not feel anything now, when you are older and don't even have a child at home, not only will you be sad, you will also be ridiculed by outsiders.
It was not right to stay, nor was it right not to stay. Lei Haozi's wife was at a loss for a moment. After returning home, she never came out again. She was frowning and sighing all day long, touching her belly and crying.
Looking at Phyllis on the other side, she didn't take this matter seriously at all. She hadn't seen Lei Haozi's wife for more than half a month and thought she had had an abortion. She simply threw the two stacks of banknotes to Lei Haozi and asked him to take them back and pass them on as compensation and nutrition fees.
After getting the money in his hand, Lei Haozi was still confused until he heard from Phyllis that his wife was pregnant, and then he reacted.
For a moment, his blood rushed to his head and Lei Haozi almost fainted. He suppressed the anger in his heart and strode out of the North City Park to go back and settle the score with his wife.
Who knew that when he came out, he would meet You Tianfu who was waiting outside!
Although he was angry about this matter, Lei Haozi himself was also a little conflicted. His wife followed him across the ocean to come here, without any relatives or friends around. Ten years had passed in the blink of an eye, and her youth had been consumed, but she still had not lived a very good life.
Although it was indeed she who betrayed him first, what difference could it make? Even if he went back and killed her with a knife, nothing would change.
Feeling depressed, he saw his friend Tianfu, and then he changed his mind and ran to a small restaurant to drown his sorrows in a drink.
Although Lei Haozi didn't say anything to You Tianfu, after a few bottles of beer and the alcohol took over, he could be considered to vent and confide in a sense.
At a certain moment, his heart was filled with resentment. He couldn't understand why Chen Dong and Lun Zi, who were all brothers in the same gang, were as close as father and son, Xie Jiannan was willing to risk his life to rescue Zhang with buck teeth, and even Wang Manxi, a woman, treated Jiang Hao as her own relative.
He and Phyllis were the first to arrive in Chinatown, sharing the most ups and downs. But in the end, due to discrimination based on nationality, they gradually alienated and even targeted him, pushing Nathan into the second-in-command position!
Others, similarly, had gained a close and devoted group of brothers, steadily ascending to glory. But he, on the other hand, had lived most of his life with neither his brothers nor his wife. The dual pressures of career and family completely shattered the last bit of friendship Lei Haozi had for Phyllis, which was why he decisively agreed to You Tianfu's plan.
Originally, Lei Haozi was filled with anger and wanted to go back and make a big fuss. Even if he didn't kill his wife, he would at least kill the baby in her belly.
But after three rounds of drinks, he calmed down and let go of everything. After leaving the restaurant, he quietly returned home, went to the bedroom and stared at his sleeping wife.
After watching for a long time, his wife suddenly woke up from her dream. She opened her eyes and was a little surprised to see Lei Haozi. Then she replied in a panic: "I don't know when you came back. Have you eaten dinner yet? I'll make it for you..."
Just as she was about to get up, she was stopped by Lei Haozi. His expression was calm, his eyes were very indifferent. He took out the two stacks of bills that Phyllis had given him and gently placed them on the bedside table: "I already know about the child. This is the compensation from Phyllis. It's a considerable amount. Please accept it."
Upon hearing this, his wife's face changed drastically. She thought there would be a bloody storm, but Lei Haozi didn't react much.
The more Lei Haozi acted like this, the more panicked she became. Instead, she felt uncomfortable. Tears welled up in her eyes, and she rushed forward to hug him: "I was wrong... I really know I was wrong... I don't want the child anymore... I don't want him anymore... Please don't abandon me... Please don't abandon me, okay..."
Lei Haozi stood upright beside the bed, like a cold pillar: "In a few months, a group of Vietnamese warlords will enter Chinatown. By then, the people in the city will be in great chaos and misery. It will be very dangerous to stay here any longer.
I understand your body and your thoughts. We've known each other for so many years, but nothing has blossomed. Perhaps it's really my fault. Now that we finally have a child, no matter whose child it is, at least it's yours.
I used to be a scoundrel, and now I'm a gangster. I can't even decide where I'm going to die in the future. If you follow me, you'll never have a peaceful life.
Over the years, I've played with many women outside. Now that you're out there messing around, we're even. Since it's already happened, just accept it."
As he spoke, Lei Haozi took out a key from his pocket and placed it next to the two stacks of banknotes. "This is the key to our safe. Inside is my savings from the past few years. Although the amount is not much, it is enough for you to raise your children for the rest of your life."
Pack your things tomorrow, and I will send someone to take you away the day after tomorrow, whether you go back to your country, go to other countries, remarry, or go alone.
You've been with me for over ten years, you've done me justice. I've done this much, and I've done you justice. From now on, we'll go our separate ways, owing nothing to each other."
That night, both of them stayed awake all night.
Lei Haozi's wife almost burst into tears, constantly apologizing and begging, hoping that she could continue to stay, even if she didn't want the child and didn't have to be a mother in the future.
But it's too late to regret now. This decision may be the best outcome for both of them.
Lei Haozi didn't dwell too much on family matters because he knew that Chinatown was about to be engulfed in a bloody storm, and it was unknown whether he could survive the incident. It was better to send his wife away than to stay and be a widow.
This choice further strengthened Lei Haozi's determination to target Phyllis. For a whole night, he simply sorted out the deconstruction and distribution of the park. The next morning, he went to the park as usual and worked hard. He left quietly until night fell. According to the previous agreement, he came to Chengdong Entertainment City and formulated the final action plan with You Tianfu and others!
