As she fed her grandson, she thought back to the seven-month-old child that she saw in the hospital recently, that child who looked eerily similar to her son. Unfortunately, that child was someone else’s child and was not her grandson.

Xia Yuwei arrived at the door and looked at her son but she did not reach out to hold him. She especially hated it when her son got into one of his crying fits which only annoyed her even more.

She dug out her phone and couldn’t help but send her husband a text message.

“When would you be home? Let’s talk.”

She sent the text out but just like previous texts she sent, Mo Yixuan did not respond.

She sent more than a dozen text messages but he did not respond to a single one and did not even send an emoticon. He did was not even picking up her calls.

He was much colder than he ever was before.

Xia Yuwei suddenly threw her phone angrily against the chair at the side. She was annoyed and completely tired of this.

She shouldn’t have pulled the stunt where she threatened to jump off from the building with the child, but wasn’t this all his fault? Why did she have no rights to speak in this house at all? Why should she always listen to everything he said? They were married for so long and hadn’t she suffered long enough in this marriage?

…

Mo Yixuan lit up another cigarette in the office. His eyes looked fatigued, as though he had not slept in a while.

He leaned against his leather chair and the coffee on his desk was still steaming hot. He had lost weight during this period because he did not have any appetite and also because he was smoking far too much.

He picked up his phone and noticed the text that Xia Yuwei sent but he still chose to ignore her. He was completely tired of this woman.

He called a lawyer and soon, someone picked up his call.

“Hello, Mister Mo.”

“How has the search been?” Mo Yixuan said, his lips curling into a cold smile. All he wanted to do right now was to break free of this marriage.

“You see, Mister Mo, I have already sent someone to check on your wife, Xia Yuwei and found that besides the 3 million dollars 750,000 dollars she transferred to her mother and brother respectively, she had also made three transfers to a man named Cheng Tao. The first transfer was made in March where she transferred 600,000 dollars, then she made a second transfer of 450,000 dollars in August and 300,000 dollars in November. These three sums of money were transferred to three different accounts but these three accounts were all linked to Cheng Tao. One of the accounts is his personal account, while the other two accounts belong to his mother and cousin respectively.”

The lawyer reported the information that he had gathered recently. He was one of the top lawyers of Ye City and had his own team, including detectives and hackers, so he was very fast when it came to conducting background checks.

“Cheng Tao?” Mo Yixuan frowned deeply and his eyes were filled with confusion.

“Yes, do you recognize this man? This man is 25 years old this year and had graduated from the same university as your wife. He is in the fitness industry and is now the boss of a health club.” The lawyer reported the information he had gathered.

“Send me everything you’ve got on this man, including his photo.” Mo Yixuan’s lips pursed into a tight line and his black eyes were dark and grave, as cold as an icy pond.

He had never heard Xia Yuwei mention this man, so this man was a complete stranger to him. He wanted to see who could this man be for that woman to make multiple transfers of his money without his permission.

Soon, he received the information about Cheng Tao, including a few photos on his phone.
