Defrosting The Cold Young Master
Chapter 1026 - 1026 1030 Seeing Through the Conspiracy

Chapter 1026: Chapter 1030: Seeing Through the Conspiracy Chapter 1026: Chapter 1030: Seeing Through the Conspiracy At that moment, Jiao Tao was speaking, “Will this method work? The Xie Family is a prestigious house, and that dead old man from the Xie Family is like a fair and impartial judge, cold-blooded and heartless. He shows no mercy even to his own son. If this messes up, we are both dead for sure!”

“We have no choice but to go ahead,” the man talking to her said as he looked at Jiao Tao’s abdomen, a hint of reluctance flashing in his eyes, “I didn’t want this either, but under the current circumstances, it has become a necessity.”

“But I really can’t bear it,” Jiao Tao looked down at her belly, her palm caressing it, her voice somewhat choked up, “Ah Yu, is there really no other way?”

“There’s no other way,” the man said through clenched teeth, “If it were an ordinary family, we might think about bribing the identification staff, switching the results, but with a family like the Xie Family, the people they hire are untouchable for ordinary people like us. Even if you have money now, we wouldn’t know who to bribe.”

Jiao Tao, head bowed, touched her belly and began to cry softly.

“Alright, stop crying,” the man embraced Jiao Tao’s shoulders, pulling her into his arms, “No matter what, we can’t keep this child. Since it can’t be kept, we can’t let the child be sacrificed for nothing—we must take a bite out of the Xie Family!”

“But I feel like Xie Yunlin is not easy to manipulate,” Jiao Tao said hesitantly, “Although Xie Yunlin is young, he has an intimidating presence. His eyes are ice-cold when he looks at people, and he only shows warmth towards Xie Jinfei and Ye Xingbei. When dealing with Senior Master Xie, he is all business, which is frightening. I’m not daring enough to approach him, but Xie Jinfei, on the other hand, seems careless and not very cunning.”

“Exactly because Xie Jinfei is not cunning and Xie Yunlin is cunning, we need to target Xie Yunlin,” the man said, “You pin the blame on Xie Yunlin. That will be his stain. After you give birth to a son, you might use that as leverage to force Xie Yunlin out of the Xie Family, allowing your son to become the heir.”

“It’s too difficult,” Jiao Tao shook her head, caressing her belly, her gaze dismal, “This pregnancy is gone, who knows when the next one will come? Even if I get pregnant again, by the time the child grows up, Xie Yunlin would have become the Family Head of the Xie Family, firmly established. With no money or power, how could we compete with Xie Yunlin?”

“We’ll cross that bridge when we come to it,” the man sighed helplessly as he looked at Jiao Tao’s belly, “We never anticipated that the old man from the Xie Family would be so cunning. Since he’s already on guard, if we don’t terminate this pregnancy now and wait until the child is born, that would be solid evidence, and it would be real trouble then. While the child is still small, use it to scheme against Xie Yunlin; it can be considered revenge for those two brothers driving you out of the Xie mansion. Everything else, we’ll deal with later.”

Jiao Tao very reluctantly threw herself into his arms and started crying, “I’m not reconciled, I really am not reconciled…”

“Even if you are not reconciled, there’s nothing we can do,” the man soothed her, patting her back, “Since we’ve chosen this path, there’s no turning back now. We’ll take it one step at a time. No matter what, the child absolutely cannot be kept. Tomorrow, think of a way to terminate the pregnancy and then pin it on Xie Yunlin.”

Ye Xingbei finally couldn’t help but turn to Gu Junzhu, his eyes wide in shock, “Did I hear that right? Jiao Tao and that man intend to terminate Jiao Tao’s pregnancy and then frame it on my brother?”
