Li Jiacheng returned, but did not enter the house.
He parked his car near his home and saw a police car go to his house and take Zhou Meiqin away. He smoked in the car and didn't go home until evening.
As soon as Li Xin'er saw him return, she angrily questioned him.
"Dad, why, why did you betray Mom?"
"What betrayal?" Li Jiacheng feigned ignorance.
“Only a few of us in the family know about that. You’re the only one who’s been out all day and hasn’t come back. Who else went to report it besides you?” Li Xin’er pressed.
They thought that her career was in jeopardy and her family was facing a lawsuit with Mu Weiwei, which was already the worst-case scenario.
But what was even more cruel was that the parents turned against each other, and the family completely fell apart.
Seeing that he couldn't hide it any longer, Li Jiacheng simply stopped denying it.
"What do you know? Aren't I doing this for the family?"
Without the company, how will the family live in the future?
"For the sake of this family, you're going to sacrifice my mother?" Li Xin'er asked, tears streaming down her face.
Li Jiacheng sighed irritably, sat down, and said.
“I’ve already hired a lawyer to defend your mother. The maximum sentence for indirect intentional homicide is ten years, and if she behaves well, she could be out in less than ten years.”
"Ten years? How many decades does a person have in a lifetime? Don't you have any conscience at all?"
Li Xin'er gritted her teeth. She had always longed for a family reunion so that she could openly acknowledge her father.
Now, she truly wishes she had never had him as her father.
"If we don't save the company, we'll have nothing left," Li Jiacheng shouted.
"Save the company?" Li Xin'er sneered, "Do you think that by betraying your mother, Mu Weiwei will leave the company to you? She'd rather our family be ruined than leave the company to you?"
“I am, after all, her biological father!” Li Jiacheng said resolutely.
If it weren't for Zhou Meiqin's appearance, he might have lived a peaceful life with Mu Yao. Mu Yao didn't like the cutthroat world of business, and in the end, he was the one who managed the company.
But at that time, he listened to Zhou Meiqin's instigation, fearing that Mu Weiwei would take over the company when she got older, so he joined forces with her.
Now, however, they've fallen into this predicament.
"You've never treated her like your own daughter, how could she possibly treat you like her own father? What are you dreaming of?" Li Xin'er shouted angrily.
She suffered several crushing defeats in her encounters with Mu Weiwei, so she was not one to let them off easily.
Mu Weiwei not only hates her mother, she hates them all.
She had been biding her time until the opportune moment arrived.
Public opinion is now on her side; even if she drives her entire family to their deaths, she won't bat an eye.
"That's enough. You caused all this trouble. If you hadn't let it slip in front of her, why would she be so insistent on it?" Li Jiacheng was annoyed and didn't want to argue with her anymore.
Mu Weiwei hadn't pursued the matter before, but after she mentioned the car accident to Mu Weiwei last time, Mu Weiwei started investigating relentlessly.
Before this, Mu Weiwei had no idea that the car accident was caused by someone; it was all because she had said things she shouldn't have.
"I……"
Li Xin'er covered her face and cried out in pain. She had only wanted to provoke Mu Weiwei into making a move, and she never expected that Mu Weiwei would start recording as soon as she went in.
Moreover, the evidence was only released when the public had already supported her, causing her to be condemned by everyone, while she herself suddenly became the object of everyone's sympathy and pity.
