Chapter 1055: Chapter 1097: Overestimating Oneself

She found it strange, how could a person who had already died be considered to have done wrong, to have betrayed someone? If they said it was because Huo Junmo was ungrateful, abandoning his first wife after meeting her, she could understand. But the problem now was that Nan Jiansi had been dead for five years! Huo Junmo had also observed a mourning period for her for five years! Making a 29-year-old man who was full of energy live a bland life every day with his deceased wife, was this really noble or committed?

Are they really expecting Huo Junmo to remain unmarried for life to honor Nan Jiansi?

The logic of the Nan Family is truly baffling! Fundamentally, they are selfish, afraid that once Huo Junmo marries her, he will completely abandon the Nan Family. These people are simply too much!

"I... I... I...!" Nan Jinning repeated the word "I" several times but couldn’t form a complete sentence to retort!

Nevertheless, Ling Yueyue persisted fiercely, "Let me tell you, I, Ling Yueyue, am a woman responsible for myself, my family, and my man! Since I’ve married him, I would never leave him! No matter how you Nan Family people try to sabotage, you can’t break the bond between us! Nan Jiansi has departed, which proves she doesn’t have the fortune to enjoy the current life! I will take her place to care for my husband and Tiantian! So, please stop with the hypocrisy, claiming that Huo Junmo wronged Nan Jiansi! He hasn’t wronged you; he has observed a mourning for five years, which is more than enough repayment to her and to you Nan Family! Huo Junmo has already given enough to the Nan Family; any more is unwarranted. Please stop scheming to get more benefits from him!"

Since the disturbance by the Nan Family on her wedding day, she specifically searched online for the relationship between Huo Junmo and the Nan Family!

Before, she only knew that the Nan Family were wealthy merchants in Du City, and at the beginning of Nan Jiansi and Huo Junmo’s relationship, the Nan Family looked down on Huo Junmo and prevented them from being together! Later, Nan Jiansi abandoned her family to be with Huo Junmo in Jin City!

She didn’t know if the Nan Family had helped at the initial stage of Nan Jiansi and Huo Junmo’s entrepreneurial journey! But she knew that Nan Jiansi and Huo Junmo had faced very hard times at the beginning of their startup!

Eventually, just as Huo Junmo’s business began to thrive, Nan Jiansi died in a car accident, leaving behind only a son for Huo Junmo!

At that time, the Nan Family placed all the blame on Huo Junmo, believing that he had killed their daughter, continuously accusing and blaming him!

Huo Junmo stayed silent, bearing all the blame quietly!

After Jiansi’s death, Huo Junmo immersed himself in his work, expanding Huo Tian Group ever larger! At this point, the Nan Family’s Nanshang Group encountered a commercial crisis!

When the Nan Family faced commercial difficulties, it was Huo Junmo who unhesitatingly extended help and repeatedly injected funds into their company, allowing Nanshang Group to sustain to this day!

Although these were things she found online and couldn’t fully trust, at least 90% of it seemed credible!

Huo Junmo has been genuinely kind and fair to the Nan Family, having done all he could!

Yet, the Nan Family is still unsatisfied, attempting to bind Huo Junmo for life, preventing him from marrying another woman!

She believes that if Nan Jiansi were still alive, she would agree with her attitude, wishing for Huo Junmo to be happy rather than dwelling on their past to live a lonely and solitary old age.

"You... you... you insolent bully, don’t assume that marrying my brother-in-law allows you to make decisions for him! Let me tell you, the empire of Huo Tian Group was built by my sister alongside my brother-in-law! And you are simply someone who enjoys what my sister left behind! Not only did you snatch my sister’s man, but you also intend to take over Huo Tian Group. I tell you, my brother-in-law won’t agree! Even if my brother-in-law agrees, as my sister’s direct family, we won’t consent!" Despite everything Ling Yueyue said, Nan Jinning interpreted it as Ling Yueyue entirely assuming the role of the Huo Family’s mistress, completely disregarding the Nan Family and Huo Junmo! Ultimately, she is only arrogant because her brother-in-law loves her and treats her well! If her brother-in-law stopped loving her, she would be nothing and wouldn’t dare to be so audacious!

Upon seeing Nan Jinning completely misunderstand after all that she had said and utter such words, Ling Yueyue couldn’t help but roll her eyes dramatically and dismissively replied, "It seems everything I said was futile! With your intellect, you dare challenge me, Ling Yueyue, for a man; it’s truly laughable!" Saying that, right in front of Nan Jinning, she decisively closed the door with force!

Just like when the door was opened, Nan Jinning had no time to react or any mental preparation; she only heard a loud ’bang’ as the heavy door shut in front of her!

Nan Jinning blinked blankly, her heart racing frantically from the loud noise of the door being slammed!

Thinking back to Ling Yueyue’s arrogant demeanor, and realizing she had been shut out like this, Nan Jinning’s eyes turned red with anger, her hands at her sides clenched into fists, her teeth grinding audibly.

Damn Ling Yueyue, wait and see! She wanted to see how long she could keep being arrogant!

She absolutely would not allow her to steal her brother-in-law! Her brother-in-law was everything to her, her dream since childhood! At twelve, when her sister first brought her brother-in-law home, she fell for him!

But at that time, her brother-in-law was her sister’s boyfriend, and as a sister, she couldn’t possibly take her sister’s boyfriend! Moreover, she was only twelve at the time, still in middle school, and couldn’t be with her brother-in-law anyway!

Although she couldn’t be with him, the thing she looked forward to every day was her sister bringing her brother-in-law home. As long as she could see him, say a word, she would be satisfied!

She secretly crushed on her brother-in-law for five years, believing she would only ever secretly love him, never be with him!

She never expected that five years later, her sister would die in a car accident, leaving behind a son!

But at that time, she was only seventeen; she couldn’t be with her brother-in-law! So, she waited, waited for herself to grow up, to graduate from college, then she could, in broad daylight, be with her brother-in-law!

She never imagined that before she graduated college, her brother-in-law would suddenly marry this woman named Ling Yueyue!
