Chapter 965 Only One Can Be Left
Xia Luoluo ignored Huo Xiuyuan's words. "Why should I leave? I don't intend to leave. I came here today to demand an explanation. As for what you said, ha, the Huo family is indeed not under my control. If you don't want to admit that the child in my belly is from the Huo family, that's fine too. But if you want to settle things peacefully? Sorry, impossible."
Huo Xiuyuan narrowed his eyes dangerously: "What do you mean?"
Xia Luoluo said, "The child is Huo Nanxiao's, and you must admit that. If you don't want to raise the child, you can hold a press conference and make it clear to everyone that you don't want the child, so that outsiders won't point fingers at the child after I give birth to it."
At the very least, I want everyone to know that it was the Huo family who didn't want this child, not that I deliberately took the child away to prevent you from recognizing him.
That's a bit sarcastic.
If Huo Xiuyuan really did that, and word got out, everyone would laugh at the Huo family for being so rich, yet getting someone pregnant and refusing to support them.
Even if Huo Xiuyuan is a good person, he will still be criticized.
Are these people who care so much about their image going to be ridiculed for the rest of their lives?
Huo Xiuyuan certainly couldn't afford to lose face like that.
Xia Luoluo knew that the Huo family would have no choice but to deal with her troubles in order to save face.
But the Huo family can't do anything about her now, because she's pregnant.
Thinking of this, Xia Luoluo felt even more smug. She looked at Xia Wanwan with disdain and said, "Sister, this matter has nothing to do with you. Since Uncle Huo doesn't want so many people disturbing his peace, why don't you go back first?"
Xia Wanwan was disgusted by her shameless younger sister. This was her husband's home, and also her parents-in-law's home. Even if the two elders were unwilling to acknowledge Xia Wanwan, this identity still existed.
Xia Luoluo is pregnant with Huo Nanxiao's child and comes to his door to force him out, yet she demands that Xia Luoluo, the original wife, get out? Is there any justice in this world?
Xia Wanwan was almost driven mad by Xia Luoluo. She clenched her fists, suppressed her anger, and said, "Since Nan Xiao isn't here, let's go back together."
"I'm not going back." Xia Luoluo simply stayed there, casually stroking her belly with one hand, a faint smile on her lips: "Actually, it doesn't matter whether Huo Nanxiao is here or not. Uncle Huo is the true master of the Huo family. If you are willing to acknowledge the child's identity, I can come forward and explain to the media, and we will definitely not let the Huo family be affected in any further way."
Huo Xiuyuan scoffed: "Impossible."
Xia Luoluo looked displeased, but before she could speak, Xia Wenhe spoke up first: "Mr. Huo, my daughter is heavily pregnant right now. You're cutting off their future with just one sentence. As an elder, don't you think you've gone too far by being so cold-blooded and heartless?"
Huo Xiuyuan glanced at Xia Luoluo's belly and said, "You all know how she got pregnant. There are no secrets in this world. What kind of good person would steal their own sister's boyfriend? The Huo family is no longer a garbage collector. You can go wherever you want."
"Trash! You call Luo Luo trash? She's carrying the Huo family's child! How can you, as an elder, be so vicious?" Xia Wenhe was furious.
Huo Xiuyuan was amused, his face full of disdain: "Who knows who she's slept with outside? If this child is Xia Wanwan's, it would be understandable for you to come to our door asking for benefits, but this child is Xia Luoluo's. I just don't understand how your family could have such a peculiar fetish."
Xia Wenhe was so humiliated that his face turned red, and he felt a fire burning inside him.
Xia Wanwan wasn't much better off, biting her lip tightly.
As for Xia Luoluo... she has the thickest skin and is willing to go all out. She doesn't care what Huo Xiuyuan says. All she cares about is her own future. What she wants is a wealthy life, so she will climb up by any means necessary. Since she has already done what she should do, why should she be afraid of what others say?
So what if she's humiliated? She doesn't care!
Charlotte said, "Uncle Huo, you don't need to say these things to make fun of me. I know you don't like me and I know you look down on me, but you can see that I have been doing my best to raise Ayuan all these years."
I've truly cared for A-Yuan all these years. He was sent to the Xia family shortly after birth, and I raised him from infancy, changing his diapers and feeding him myself. I've done more than enough for the child and the Huo family. Now that I'm pregnant, I only want my child to have what belongs to him, just like A-Yuan, so that his future won't be too difficult.
She was practically asking Huo Xiuyuan to give some shares to the child in her womb.
She originally wanted to speak out, but then she thought that Huo Xiuyuan was a very shrewd person. If she was too forceful, Huo Xiuyuan would feel threatened and would definitely break off relations with her.
Xia Luoluo didn't want to cut off her own escape route without getting a single penny, so she could only look for an entry point in Huo Yuan.
No matter how outsiders criticize Xia Luoluo, she doesn't care. Even if outsiders say bad things about her, she has nothing to refute. But if outsiders say that she treats Huo Yuan badly, then Xia Luoluo will have a lot to say.
Before Xia Ningxi returned to China, she slept with Huo Yuan and cooked all three meals a day by herself. How good was she to Huo Yuan?
You couldn't find another person in the entire capital city who treated Huo Yuan as well.
Not only the children, but the entire Huo family should thank her.
On this point, Huo Xiuyuan was indeed beyond reproach. He knew what Xia Luoluo wanted, so he simply stated it bluntly today: "You want to use the child to climb the social ladder? Impossible. As for child support? When we settled accounts with your sister before, we already allocated one of the Huo family's companies to her. That money is enough for you to raise the child."
“I am me, and she is her. What do the things you gave her have to do with the child in my belly?” Xia Luoluo retorted.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "You don't actually think that you two sisters can get benefits from the Huo family without giving anything in return, do you?"
Xia Luoluo feigned composure: "What do you mean by that, Mr. Huo?"
Huo Xiuyuan said, "I know what you want. After Xia Wanwan married Huo Nanxiao, I didn't make things difficult for her, simply because she couldn't have children and couldn't pose a threat to the Huo family. Now that you've gone to great lengths to get pregnant, what you want is the right to inherit the Huo family's assets, right?"
"I just want child support and the status and identity I deserve," Charlotte denied.
Huo Xiuyuan said, "There's no need for such high-sounding words in front of me. I know exactly what your family is up to. I'll make things clear today: if you want an explanation, your sister must divorce Nan Xiao. Only one of you will stay!"
