The Villain's Wife

"How — how could— "

"These are the changes that old man Yu made just before his death." The lawyer added.

Furious, Yu Yanwan walked towards the lawyer. "You are lying! Give me the true will! I will show it to my own lawyers!"

"Miss Yu these documents were signed by the old man himself. Two other people signed it as witnesses. And please don't touch me. Let me remind you about the clause of the will. I have a recorder with me that I can use against you if you dare lay your hands on me or your brother."

"What?" Yu Yanwan forced herself to swallow her anger. She then glared at the lawyer and turned towards her brother. "Are you allowing this person to bully me like this?"

"Sister… please calm down."

"What do you mean calm down? This is extremely unfair! How could he do this to me?" Slowly, Yu Yanwan sat on the chair as she broke down, crying. She felt betrayed, hurt, and insulted. How could her own father do this? Isn't this worse than receiving nothing?

One insult and she will lose everything. What kind of punishment is this?

"Miss Yu, let me remind you that we also have a solid case against you for the murder of your own mother. I can assure you that once you break one of the clauses that I mentioned earlier, you will not only lose everything. You will also go to jail for the rest of your life." The lawyer then smiled at Yu Tingye. "I will go ahead and deliver these documents to your younger brother. Please call me if you need anything else."

"Elder brother! Are you really going to let them treat me like this?"

"You… poisoned mother." Yu Tingye's words were enough to shut her sister up. He then looked at the documents on his table and read the clauses under his inheritance. As expected, some clauses told him not to try to question the will or he too will lose everything. A sigh escaped his lips.

"Too bad the old man didn't give us the shares." He stated. It was a waste. Yu Tingye already started buying some shares from the other shareholders. This was after he had a conversation with Lily and Zhou Jingren. Because of this, he is not too worried about the inheritance anymore.

Moreover, the money that he will receive from his father should be enough for him to survive. Just like what Yu Helong told him, fighting against Lily will only cost him a lot of resources. And there are practically zero ways to question the will.

Additionally, Lily is an accomplished woman. If the company falls under her hands, it only means more profit for him and Yu Helong as they already own a few shares under their name.

Of course, Yu Yanwan's thoughts are the opposite of his two elder brother's opinions. She gritted her teeth. She could barely hold her fury as she bid his brother goodbye. She was about to call the media company when she remembered that she forgot to buy a burner phone.

With these in mind, she marched towards her car, convinced that the only way to stop Lily is to expose her to the media. Unfortunately for her, Zhou Jingren would never allow his wife to encounter this type of problem.

"Who are you?" Yu Yanwan instantly asked the two men who approached her. She eyed the CCTV in the parking lot and instantly paled when she saw them turned in the opposite direction. It was fairly obvious that someone changed them. "Why are you following me?" she asked. She did her best to stop her voice from trembling. But it was futile.

"I am the daughter of…"

"Please follow us peacefully. We don't want to hurt your husband."

"W — What?" Yu Yanwan stuttered. She tried to look towards her left and right, trying to find someone that could help her. It was futile. She nodded and instantly followed the two into a black-tinted car. "Where are you taking — " her words were interrupted when she noticed that someone is already sitting inside the van.

"Hello, Miss Yu."

"You — You are Zhou Jingren!" she stated, fear flashing in her eyes. Why would Zhou Jingren want to see her? She swallowed and stared at the man's stern face. "What are you doing? This is illegal!" she said, hoping that it was enough to scare off the man.

"I assumed you already received the letter that the old man left?" he asked, his deep voice only made more afraid. Yu Yanwan never talked to Zhou Jingren before. She was not very familiar with the man. However, from the party, she saw him swooning over his wife.

Facing Zhou Jingren now only made her realized something. Zhou Jingren and her father… almost have the same way of speaking. The same presence and even the suffocating environment around them are almost identical.

"Did you lose the ability to speak?" Zhou Jingren slowly shifted his gaze towards her. His cynical eyes bore inside her soul, sending shivers of fear into her spine.

"I did!" she answered. She tried to maintain her composure but in front of Zhou Jingren… it was useless. "What are you doing? Are you going to kidnap me?"

"Kidnapping involves people or things with value. And you are not one of those. I suggest you stop flattering yourself and hurting your ego."

"You — Is this how you talk to someone older than you?"

"This is how I talk to people who are planning to hurt my wife."

It was as if a lump suddenly grew in her throat. "I— "

"I know what you are trying to do." Zhou Jingren snorted before he shifted his gaze to the seat next to him. "What you did to your family is none of my business. However, it is my duty and responsibility to protect my wife. And this… this is me protecting her from people like you."
