Chapter 111 - Leave Her!

Seeing Zhang Ying's face turned uglier, Lawyer Liu sneered. "You incompetent brainless twerp." With that, he left the private room and went straight into his car. He felt furious and irritated he wanted to kill someone. Sleeping with Sera? Why would he do that?

First, Sera is Mr. Quinn's wife. Just thinking about sleeping with her is a sin.

Second, Sera is just like a daughter to him! Just thinking about those obscene acts made him want to puke.

And third… he would rather sleep with Mr. Quinn than Sera!

Those were just three of the top reasons he would never do that. On top of everything, he would never do that to his client. He was a professional. If he was someone who just sleeps with anyone, he wouldn't have survived this cruel… cruel world until now.

He started his car and immediately called Lan Xing, informing him about this matter. He even told Lan Xing to tell Chris not to hold back in punishing that woman!

Hmph!

"That shameless man!" Zhang Ying was fuming. The elegance that she always had disappeared as she downed another glass of strong wine. "How dare he?"

"Can you calm down and tell me what happened?" Her father, Nick, folded his arms across his chest as he looked at Zhang Ying, who just arrived in the mansion. Zhang Ying was really in a foul mood. However, she didn't say anything about why she was so angry.

"What happened?" he repeated when he saw her started to drink from the bottle. "I thought you were trying to take care of your body?"Those words seemed to wake her up. She put the bottle of wine down and finally turned to look at her father.

"That man insulted me."

"Isn't that expected already?"

Zhang Ying furrowed her beautiful brows. Her cheeks were already flushed. "Expected? I expected him to insult me! I never expected him to act like…" She thought of all the insults that she received. "I never expected his tongue to be so sharp!" Who would have thought that a lawyer like him would say those things?

She was expecting him to get angry but not show his anger because of his special position.

"What did he say?" This only made Nick more curious.

"I'd rather not talk about it." Zhang Ying sat on the couch and opened her phone. She then threw it next to her when she didn't see a single text from Edward. "This is Sera's fault."

"What do you mean?"

"She must have poisoned that lawyer's mind and told him things about us. That woman must have made herself look so pitiful, the lawyer just couldn't help but love her. Shameless!" Just the thought of the words that the Lawyer said made her angry again. "Ahhh!" She could only clench her hands into tight fists, her nails grazed her palms. The pain reminded her to calm herself.

If she wanted to destroy someone, then being calm is necessary.

"Now that the Lawyer isn't cooperating then… what are we going to do?"

"What do you mean?" Zhang Ying hissed. "Tomorrow, I will secretly release this news to the media. I am sure that this scandal would somehow affect that man's reputation."

"Yingying… you know that Lawyer Liu isn't someone that we could just bully. I think you should avoid that man instead."

"Are you scared of him?" This coward! Zhang Ying always hated how she was born to a cowardly father. Nick Zhang was not only a coward, but he was also very passive and would always choose to avoid things than directly facing them.

She could only blame this man for the things that her mother did for her and their family. If Nick Zhang had some spine and showed that he had some character to that old man, then her mother would have felt security. Zhang Ying believed that her mother's fate could have changed if Nick was more aggressive!

"You don't understand. I made my research about him and notice that he doesn't just defend officials. He would defend criminals and win. These are… crime bosses and even dangerous gang bosses. If Lawyer Liu would ask them to hurt you… I think they wouldn't hesitate to do it."

Zhang Ying squinted. Actually, she was also aware of this fact. She was just too confident that she could scare the lawyer. She snorted and turned her attention to her phone. She hated how she felt really helpless against Sera right now. "How the hell did she find that backer?" she mumbled while cursing Sera inwardly.

Without Lawyer Liu, that Sera would have been helpless. She thought of the things that Sera received and even the crazy conditions that her grandfather set up for their family. Why was it so unfair?

Sera was not beautiful or tall or as smart as her. She was ambitious and tried to seduce Edward when they were younger. She did bad things too! So why is it that the old man still loved her? Zhang Ying was also the old man's granddaughter! Why can't he love her instead?

Was it just because she was the daughter of his favored child?

After a few more minutes, she grabbed her phone and got up. "Where are you going?" her father asked.

"I am going to see Edward."

"Alright… you should be more careful. I suggest you don't do anything for now. Let's relax and see what is that woman planning to do."

"Hmph!" she scoffed. Why was it that all the thinking was on her? Once again, she started cursing her father for being too dumb!

On her way to Edward's house, she called him, informing him that she was on her way. However, Edward told her that he was still in a meeting and might be home a little later. While she felt irritated, she hid her emotions. Irritated, she turn off her phone and decided to try to relax for the night.

….

Current time: Thirty Minutes after midnight

Edward couldn't help but feel like he was carrying a huge, heavy boulder when he watched the video of Zhang Xin inside the villa that she was staying. Contrary to Zhang Ying's claims, Zhang Xin doesn't look like she had problems in her head at all. If anything, she looked like she was having a vacation.

She was sitting in a rocking chair, a romance novel was in her hand, while juice and some snacks were placed on her left. She was smiling and would occasionally giggle because of the book that she was reading. After a few minutes, she called a servant and asked them to make her some special dish that she liked for lunch.

Then she went inside and changed into a swimsuit and started sunbathing.

How could Zhang Ying say that her mother was crazy?

The more he thought about it, the more irritable he was. This video was released a few minutes ago. He was still in a meeting, so he wasn't able to see it. Right now, it was already too late to try and delete it.

All he could do was try to influence the trending topic of the social media site where the video was released. He looked at some of the mean comments and some memes that people created with Zhang Ying and Zhang Xin on it. They were harsh and calling Zhang Ying a fake because she tried to target people with mental disabilities and use them as an excuse for her mother's crime.

Earlier, Edward already received a call from Zhang Ying's manager, telling him that he couldn't reach Zhang Ying and that most products who paid as her their ambassadress already tried to cancel their contract with Zhang Ying. After all, this issue is turning big.

"Sir, your mother is on line one." His secretary informed him. He nodded and answered his mother. "Mom?"

"Tomorrow, you will go to the Hill Mansion and tell Mr. Hill that you wanted to marry Athena."

"What?" His mother didn't hold back. She didn't say hi or asked him what he feels. She just told him to marry someone else.

"I don't want this issue to affect the future election." Madam Fu's voice was cold. "That woman of yours… I overestimated her. She is dumb and careless. She doesn't deserve to stand next to you."

"Mom! How could you say that? You know that I love Yingying! I would never marry anyone else aside from her!" Marrying Athena? That would never happen! "Besides, Athena has someone she really liked! How could you ask me to marry someone who already loves another person? Athena and I would never work!"

"Hmph! Did you think you still have a choice? If you won't do it, I will ruin Zhang Ying until she begs you to marry someone else! That woman is causing problems left and right. She is attracting too much attention towards you! Did you know that she had the guts to offend Lawyer Liu, that even my family would never dare to offend? I thought she was just bold. It turns out, she was actually stupid! Leave her!"

"Mother!"
