Chapter 178 - 178 GET OUT! (Part 3)

Fu Yung was still not able to wrap her head with October's unnerving giggle that seemed to echo from hell. She gritted her teeth and continued to retreat at the back. 

She was not scared! She really was not scared of October. October was just a nobody who just got a married with the Song family. If anything, she believed that October was not that welcomed with such a big and influential family. Although it was true that she noticed that the madam of the Song family seemed to favor October the last time she met her, it may have been just Madam Song giving October some face. 

Yes, that must be it!

Fu Yung was convincing, no, she was technically hynotizing herself that she was not scared of October and that there's no need for her to back down and she should just believe in her husband. 

While Fu Yung was mulling over this, October had already erased Fu Yung's presence and just stared straight at Peizhi. She saw him looking uneasy and he had on a very complicated look on his face.

"Fu Yung is your stepmother. Also, she was once your best friend. How can you treat her like this? Aren't you being too harsh?" Peizhi growled, his eyes glinting dangerously. He acted mightily to intimidate October. He does not believe that he could not deal with her. 

Peizhi was saying this with confidence and righteousness as if there was nothing wrong with what he said. But that was not the case for other people.

The guests who had no idea of such relationship before had finally understood something and they looked at Peizhi with a sneer, disgust, and helplessness. There were also some who showed indifference. 

"Yes, you are right about this one. She was my best friend. However, I got betrayed by the two people who held a special bond to me. What's more, there was no remorse from you two. You saying that I am harsh? However, you know what you did yet you still think that there was nothing wrong with what you did." October said this with a sneer on her pretty face. If not because of the dark swirling glint coming from her eyes, it would have been such an enchanting sight. Her eyes turned to crescents when she smiled and tilted her head in wonder. 

"You seemed silent. Can't find your tongue?" When she noticed that Peizhi was about to open his mouth, she turned her eyes on Fu Yung who was hiding behind Peizhi and trying to lessen her presence. "You said that I'm just like my mother, vicious, you say. There's a level for viciousness. My mother's seemed to have been at the lowest. Now, I wonder why you are attracted to this two-faced b*tch who I once called best friend."

"What did you s-"

"Father." October snapped her head with a dark look on her pretty face toward Peizhi making him choke on his words. He trembled and stood frozen. He wanted to look away from her piercing gaze yet could not do it. It was as if there was a hand holding his head in place. There was no iota of feelings when she called him "father."

"I did not get my viciousness from mother, I got it from my you." October and Peizhi locked eyes.

At this momentum, Peizhi was completely overwhelmed. He could not utter a single word of retaliation. 

"Hmph. Father, you don't have to put up a front that you are concerned about me and in return, I will do so too. This will be the last time that I will address you as "father." This will also be my last duty to you as my biological father, that is, to be a bride. You don't have to worry about the expenses that you've spend for me. I've already calculated it all and put some interest in it and trasnferred the money in your bank account. With that, we no longer have any connection with each other." October indifferently said this fluently without any fluctuation from her voice. She then turned to walk toward Lexus and linked her arm around his and grabbed her bouquet of flowers. 

The two lovingly gazed into each other's eyes and a smile so dazzling formed delicately and elegantly on their pretty faces. 

October felt at peace with him by her side. If not for him, she might have still continued to go in the cycle of her monotonous life. A cycle so empty and colorless. 

With a bright smile on her face, she turned to Peizhi who was still dumbstruck from October's ruthless words. Seeing her glimmering smile so bright caused a burning pain for his eyes. 

"Well then, thank you for bringing me into this world and goodbye. I hope we won't enocunter each other again." She said this coolly and started to walk passed Peizhi and Fu Yung with a light heart. 

This will be the first and last time that she will say something like this. This was not something she would usually do in the first place.

October and Lexus slowly walked passed the two, followed by their family and friends. However, as soon as October was about to pass by Fu Yung, her foot got caught up into something and she soon lost her footing. 

Mother Song who stood just behind October shrieked in horror at the sight of her daughter-in-law falling. Ma Rong and Yun Xixi and the other guests who saw this gasped in terror. They held their breaths as they thoughr for the worst. 

Fu Yung hid her sly smile and hid it with her hands as she acted as if she was also surprised at this. She looked at October coldly and sneered in her heart. She wanted to savor this moment and picture this where October will fall in a humiliating mess on her own wedding day.

'You b*tch. Trying to act tough and righteous when you're not! Trying to throw dirt on me? You're not my match when it comes to viciousness.'

Lexus felt his heart jumping out of his c.h.e.s.t when he saw October falling. It was as if he was looking at this moment in slow motion as horror filled his heart. There was never a time wherein he felt so terrified until now. He paled instantly and rushed in to break her fall. Faster...he has to it fast...

October's blood run cold. She was starting to fall and her eyes flashed a murderous light. She just saw a white flawless foot retreating at high speed on the side. She knew who's foot was that. 

Negative thoughts came crushing into her. However, the most horrifying outcome that she dreaded to happen was to lose her child. She can't let that happen! She gritted her teeth so much till she can taste a rustic yet sweet taste in her mouth. 

October can't and will not let harm come to her child! She quickly readjusted her foot and stomped so hard on the grass and regained her footing. It was so hard that her heel pierced into the ground so deeply. This happened at the same time strong arms wrapped around her waist. She can feel the tense and trembling arms around her, securely holding her up. She too was also shaking.

Silence.

A deafening silence hovered over the garden. The people there held their breaths longer than they usually can till their faces turned blue and white. The tension in the air was high and no one uttered a single word as they just looked intently at October and Lexus.
