Ling Che turned to look at the woman who was running towards him and stayed put. He didn't even flinch when Mother Ling raised her hand to slap him. It was another thing that the bodyguard stepped in between and stopped Mother Ling.
"You—you bastard! How could you do such a thing to me? I am your mother!" mother Ling roared. When she found out that she was released, she heaved a sigh of relief. Somewhere she felt proud that Ling Che still held the same fear that he did towards her when she was young.
However, those happy thoughts took a heavy turn when she found out that Ling Che had actually severed ties with their family. How could such a thing be allowed? If Ling Che left their family, what were they going to do?
Thus, the second she found out the truth, she chased after the mer but who would have thought that Ling Che would treat her like this? She was his mother! Biological mother!
"I am afraid you are no longer my mother as per the agreement that your husband signed on your account," Ling Che smiled at his mother, who glared at her husband.
When Ling Che followed her line of sight, he found a palm print on the face of his father but he didn't say anything. In the past, he did try to help his father but Master Ling never thought that there was anything wrong with what his wife did.
In his eyes, he was relying on his wife and he should suffer some pain if he could make his wife feel better.
These were the thoughts that his father had. Since that was the case, why should he even bother with his father? Master Lei liked making himself look like the victim but he never fought back or took a stand for himself, so what could Ling Che do?
He pursed his lips and looked away from Master Ling, who was staring at him while silently hoping for Ling Che to help him, and turned disappointed when he saw that Ling Che was not even looking at him. He pursed his lips silently and lowered his head, feeling a bit annoyed.
For the first time in his life, he suddenly felt panicked. If Ling Che didn't save him or became the human shield, what would happen to him?
"That agreement is void!" Mother Ling would never accept it. She had raised this mer for so long under her roof; he was finally repaying her for the grace that she had shown him. So how could she let him go so easily?
Ling Che was not even surprised when he heard the words of Mother Ling, as he knew that she would try to do such a thing. He smiled mockingly at his mother and said, "There is no point in crying, mother. I have signed the document and it has been notarised and stamped. That was the only reason you could come out of the prison."
"Ling Che—"
