Chapter 1765 Death Abandons Debts
However, if Tao doesn't understand the situation, even if they don't divorce, the impact on the two children should not be underestimated.
Ultimately... there must be choices.
But Uncle Meng's words struck Tao like a blow to the head, leaving her stiff, pale, and dazed.
Over the years, while Tao may not have been known for his domineering ways, he was always the one who had the final say in the Meng family.
Moreover, because the Meng family was well-off, she was always pampered when she returned to her parents' home, and her life was very smooth.
She never imagined that her husband would mention the word 'divorce' to her.
Tao's legs gave way, and she collapsed to the ground, tears streaming down her face. "My lord, you, you, I, I..."
Her lips trembled, her mind went blank, and she couldn't organize her thoughts at all.
Uncle Meng sighed and looked at Meng Qi and Meng Han, who were equally shocked and bewildered. "You two help your mother out. Let her calm down and think things through. We'll talk again when she's ready."
Meng Han's eyes were moist. She didn't want her parents to divorce. It was clearly her uncle's fault and her grandfather's fault. Even though she resented her mother's favoritism, she didn't want the family to really fall apart.
Shu Yu tugged at her, "Help your mother out first." She felt that Meng Qi and Meng Han also needed time to prepare themselves mentally and process this news.
Meng Han wiped away her tears and stepped forward to help Tao Shi up.
Tao was practically half-carried and half-dragged out by her two children, and Meng Qi took her to rest in the next room.
They stayed quietly with Tao, none of the three speaking, unsure of what to say.
Tao is gone, but Zhang is still here.
She was equally incredulous when she heard the word "divorce".
Things were developing in a way that she hadn't expected, and they were getting worse. Zhang was now desperate to escape the scene.
But Uncle Meng was already looking at her. "I'm sure you all heard what I just said. Normally, given my personality, even if Tao Feili betrayed me and was my brother-in-law, I would have settled the score with him. But he... is dead."
Zhang suddenly raised her head, her face deathly pale.
What did she just hear? Meng Kuan said it himself, that her husband was dead?
Although she had heard the same words at the Meng Family Escort Agency, she firmly believed that Lu Shuyu had deliberately said them to disgust her, and she simply did not believe it.
But why does even Meng Kuan say that?
Zhang and Tao Qin practically scrambled to their feet and stumbled into the room.
Meng Pei stopped them directly, and Uncle Meng continued, "...Death absolves all debts, so let's leave it at that. We only hope that you will not come to the Meng family again for any future troubles. We..."
"You're lying to me!" Zhang shouted, interrupting him. "You're lying to me! How could his father die? How did he die? What will happen to us? What will happen to the three of us?"
Looking at Zhang's red eyes, Uncle Meng calmly said, "He was so scared that he died."
With a loud bang, a crashing sound came from the next room. Everyone instinctively turned their heads, knowing that Tao, who was resting next door, had heard what was happening.
Shu Yu thought, "The soundproofing in these rooms is really terrible."
She got up and walked to the next room, and sure enough, she saw Tao fall off the stool and collapse unconscious on the ground. Meng Qi went out to call Doctor Mi.
