Lin Rou followed the Yu brothers out of the conference room, trying to extricate herself from the ranks of beasts, and clung to Yu Yuntian's leg, begging for forgiveness.
"Brother Yuntian, it's all Lin Haoran's fault. He threatened me and wouldn't let me see Lin An. It has nothing to do with me. Please forgive me. If you are willing to forgive me, I can sever ties with the Lin family."
"Brother Yuntian, you know I truly love you."
Lin Haoran's face turned ashen. Lin Rou, that unfilial daughter, abandoned her father to marry into a wealthy family. Seeing that the Lin family was about to fall apart, she dared to betray him to his face. How dare she?
Lin Rou cried and wailed, and Yu Yuntian felt he had lost face at the company, and was furious:
"Stop playing the victim. I've seen more women than you've eaten meals. Do you really think I can't see what you're scheming for? Do you love me? You love money. If I didn't have money, you wouldn't even give me a second glance."
"After you got together with me, you still pretended to be single and went on blind dates with other people. The social circle of the Haishi elite family is only so big. Do you think you can hide it from them?"
"I even doubt if the child in your belly is mine."
Lin Rou panicked and said in a trembling voice, "Brother Yuntian, I swear, the child is definitely yours."
What she said was true, because she wanted to use one thing as a stepping stone while looking for another, and she tried to seduce other people, but they were all afraid of getting entangled with her, so none of them succeeded.
Seven or eight security guards rushed over. Yu Yuntian, too lazy to waste any more words, pointed at Lin Rou and roared:
"Throw her, and those two old bastards, out of here!"
The security guards showed no mercy. Lin Rou and Zhang Wanru, who were both thin, were picked up and thrown out. Lin Haoran, who was stronger, was also lifted up by the two guards and thrown out, and they kicked him a couple of times, telling him to get lost.
Lin Haoran brought his wife and daughter to the Yu family's company and caused a scene, but he didn't get any benefits and was even humiliated. He was unwilling to give up and stayed at the entrance of the Yu Group's office building.
However, the three of them looked so disheveled that they quickly attracted the attention of passersby.
To save face, Zhang Wanru tearfully pleaded with Lin Haoran:
“Honey, let’s go. The Yu family is determined; they’re not going to change their minds.”
Lin Haoran was on the verge of tears. He was filled with regret. If he had known it would turn out like this, he would have just pretended to visit Lin An in the hospital, or lied to him when Lin An asked if he should side with Lin Zhe.
Now the company's business has fallen through, and Lin Rou's wedding is ruined.
The key point is that he was counting on the Yu Group to rise to prominence, but now it's all over, and everything has fallen apart!
The three of them fled back to the Lin family villa.
Lin Rou collapsed onto the sofa, sobbing uncontrollably.
"Mom and Dad, what should I do now? Yu Yuntian doesn't want me anymore."
"Shut up! Stop thinking about that scumbag and go find a hospital to abort the child," Lin Haoran said coldly.
Zhang Wanru thought Lin Haoran's words made sense: "Yes, Mom will take you to get rid of the child. This child absolutely cannot be born."
Lin Rou certainly had no intention of raising the Yu family's child, but even in her ignorance, she knew that abortion was very harmful to her body and might even affect her ability to conceive and give birth in the future.
If it affects fertility, let alone wealthy families, even ordinary men would not want to marry a woman who cannot have children.
At this moment, she hated Lin Haoran for provoking Lin An, and she hated the Lin family for being so useless, which prevented her from marrying into a wealthy family.
Lin Rou angrily shouted at Lin Haoran, "Dad, it's all your fault! You ruined my happiness!"
Zhang Wanru was also very upset and blamed Lin Haoran: "Xiaorou is right. We were all going to visit Lin An, but you insisted on stopping us. Now he hates the Lin family because of this, and we have suffered a great loss."
Lin Haoran dared not tell Zhang Wanru that Lin An did not care whether the Lin family looked at him or not. What he hated was that Lin Zhe, that illegitimate son, poisoned him, while he, as the father, was wholeheartedly on the side of the illegitimate son.
He tried to calm them down and began by saying:
"Don't panic! Xiaorou, listen to your father. Go to a big hospital first and get an abortion so you can recover properly. As for marriage, there's nothing to be afraid of. A good woman doesn't have to worry about getting married. You're so beautiful, you'll definitely find someone. Rich men like you."
Her father's words did not comfort Lin Rou; instead, they terrified her. She thought of Dong Shu, the man Lin Haoran had found for Lin Xia, and felt waves of nausea.
Lin Haoran then added:
"Besides, our company still has money in its accounts, and our cash flow won't run out yet. No company in Haishi is willing to cooperate with us, so we can just move to another city. The Lin family still has the capital to make a comeback. Once we rise again, Xiaorou, do you still need to marry into a wealthy family? Our Lin family is a wealthy family!"
Hearing this, the mother and daughter finally felt some comfort, knowing that their predicament was only temporary.
Lin Rou wiped away her tears, sat up, and pulled Zhang Wanru, saying, "Then I'll go to Jiren Hospital for an abortion."
"My good daughter, so sweet." The mother and daughter hugged each other.
Lin Haoran breathed a sigh of relief, opened his arms, and embraced them: "Don't worry, as long as our whole family works together, there's no obstacle we can't overcome."
Just then, the doorbell rang.
Butler Li opened the gate, and a man in a suit and tie walked into the courtyard of the Lin family villa.
"Excuse me, is Mr. Lin Haoran home?"
Seeing the visitor's elite demeanor, Lin Haoran quickly withdrew his arm, went out to greet him, and replied:
"That's me. May I ask who you are?"
The other party said, "Hello, Mr. Lin, I am the legal representative of the Dong Group."
Upon hearing that it was someone from the Dong family, Lin Haoran was pleasantly surprised, thinking that Dong Shu was still thinking about Lin Xia and had sent someone to increase investment and rekindle their relationship. He hurriedly said warmly, "Hello, hello, so you are the senior lawyer of the Dong Group. Please come in."
"No." The other party's tone was cold: "I came here today to inform you that because your company has not achieved the rate of return stipulated in the contract, our Dong Group has decided to recover the 100 million yuan investment, as well as double the penalty for breach of contract. Please return all funds within two days, otherwise we will take legal action to recover them."
"Recover the investment?" This was like a bolt from the blue for Lin Haoran.
"That money was compensation from Dong Shu to my daughter. Why should we take it back? He promised to give it to us," Lin Haoran said in surprise.
The lawyer sneered and replied, "The funds were transferred through the company's official account, and we both signed an investment agreement at the time. As for Mr. Dong's verbal promise, it has no legal significance."
Lin Haoran was filled with panic and asked tremblingly, "How could this be? Young Master Dong has a very good impression of Xia. Is there some misunderstanding?"
Just moments ago, they were fantasizing about moving to a different city and making a comeback. In the blink of an eye, the Dong Group has come to undermine them, aiming to destroy the Lin family.
The lawyer had already completed his task and conveyed the message in person. He didn't want to waste any more time with Lin Haoran, so he turned to leave.
