Chapter 1138: Chapter 1222: Why is there such a big gap between people?

“If you can’t live on, then go die,” Senior Madame Mi said coldly, “A woman cruel enough to use the guise of motherhood to force her own daughter to abort her child deserves neither food nor air. If you think you truly can’t go on, you might as well be dead and stop burdening your children!”

“Mom!” Siqi cried out to Senior Madame Mi, but seeing her indifferent, she turned to Mi Xiangyu with a pleading look, “Xiao Yu, mom is begging you, please help me to beg for clemency, please ask Grandma not to let your dad and mom get divorced.”

Mi Xiangyu looked down at his mother, his eyes filled with intense pity, yet he was powerless.

He knew that those who remained here now, whether it was his grandmother or his father, none had the authority to decide.

The ones who could decide to spare his mother were his elder sister Mi Sheng, or his grandfather.

But now, his elder sister had been sent away by Gu Junzhu.

His grandfather had stormed off in a huff.

He had no one to turn to.

He squatted down, helped his mother up from the ground, and took hold of her arm, speaking softly, “Mom, if you’ve done something wrong, you must face the punishment. You were threatened by my second sister to make my elder sister abort her baby, and that was indeed your mistake. However Grandma and Uncle Gu choose to punish you, you must accept it. There’s a release date for prison sentences, and a divorce can be undone. Mom, as long as you genuinely repent, I can promise you, you will not lose me, nor will you lose dad!”

Mi Junyuan closed his eyes and patted his son’s head.

Fortunately,

God hadn’t been too unkind to him.

Even though the daughter he had doted on for twelve years wasn’t his own.

Even though his second daughter was both foolish and venomous.

At least his son was bright and outstanding.

The Mi family had someone to carry it forward.

He could face his parents without feeling guilty, without the shame of not being able to raise his head.

But Siqi was gasping for breath through her tears, shaking her head frantically, “No! I don’t want to go to prison! I was just persuading my biological daughter to abort a child conceived out of wedlock, what’s wrong with that? How can you send me to prison? I don’t want to, I don’t want to!”

The thought of prison was terrifying to her!

She didn’t want to go to prison!

Being released from prison, she’d be a convict.

How could the Mi family accept a convict as a daughter-in-law?

What would Mi Junyuan do if he fell for another young and beautiful lady while she was in jail?

Her world was crumbling as she sobbed uncontrollably, feeling as though the sky was falling.

She had only persuaded her daughter to terminate the pregnancy.

Even the child in her daughter’s womb was still unharmed, so why should she face prison?

She didn’t want to go to prison.

And she didn’t want a divorce even more!

She clutched Mi Xiangyu’s clothes, begging desperately, “Xiao Yu, mom is begging you, please save me, don’t let me go to prison, and don’t let your dad divorce me, I will die, I really will die!”

“Then fight for it, don’t die!” Mi Xiangyu held her arms firmly, looking into her eyes with a clear and resolute gaze, “If you die, dad will marry a young stepmom for me, and if the future stepmom gives birth to her own children, and if she is kind, she might treat me well, but if she is not kind, she might harm me, find every possible way to drive me out of the house, so that her children can inherit the Mi family!”

Struck by his words, Siqi shivered violently and forgot even to cry.
