Wang Yue stuttered and couldn’t say a word, sweating profusely in anxiety.

Mei Mu hadn’t fully understood the situation yet, but seeing her mother’s distress, she wanted to help. “Mom, are you feeling unwell? Maybe I should accompany you upstairs to rest. Is your head hurting again?”

She was referring to the wound on Wang Yue’s forehead caused by Mei Yun.

Feeling guilty, Mei Yun softened his voice, “If you’re not feeling well, you can go to your room and rest. I’ll have Zhao Yan bring dinner to you later.”

“No, I…” Wang Yue wanted to refuse, but the words got stuck in her throat. She could only bite her lip tightly, her back drenched in cold sweat from the anxiety.

Meeting Mei Yun’s scrutinizing gaze, Wang Yue’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly pretended to feel dizzy and leaned against her daughter, “I, my head suddenly feels dizzy. Honey, could you help me back to our room to rest? Mumu is too weak. I’m afraid she might fall while helping me.”

Mei Yun actually wanted to go to his room to see the necklace and reminisce about the past.

However, now that Wang Yue was hurt by him in his impatience, ignoring her would make him seem heartless. So, he reluctantly agreed, “Alright, I’ll help you upstairs first.”

Then, he turned to Mei Shu and said, “After we finish dinner, I’ll take you to see the necklace. If you feel like resting after dinner, we can do it another day.”

A hint of success flashed in Wang Yue’s eyes, but soon her smile faded.

It was because Mei Shu, with a smirk, took out a receipt from her pocket. It clearly listed the sold necklace and the final transaction amount, with Wang Yue’s signature at the bottom.

The moment Mei Yun saw the receipt, his head spun, and he immediately flew into a rage. He pushed Wang Yue away, pointing at her nose and scolding, “Who allowed you to secretly sell this necklace? Speak up! What did you do with so much money?”

“No, Honey!” Wang Yue kneeled and crawled to Mei Yun, hugging his leg tightly, “I’m really wronged. I know nothing about this. You kept the necklace in the safe, and only you know the password. Even if I wanted to sell it secretly, I couldn’t open it!”

“Wretched woman!” Mei Yun angrily kicked her away.

Mei Mu was shocked and forgot to protect her own mother. She just stood there dumbfounded, lost in her thoughts.

Mei Yan wanted to laugh at the scene, but he suppressed it. It was quite a struggle not to burst into laughter, so he covered his face, pretending to be frightened. But it was actually to ease the strain on his mouth, which was close to cramping from holding back laughter.

Wang Yue had seen Mei Yun angry many times during their years together.

But this was the first time he had physically hit her, and she felt wronged and heartbroken. Tears streamed down her face as she cried, “Honey, I’ve been part of the Mei family for so many years. When have I ever messed with your things? Now that Mei Shu suddenly produces a receipt, you believe her without even asking? In your heart, no matter what I do, I’ll never be as important as Bai Ling, right?”

Wang Yue’s words completely left Mei Yun speechless. After a pause, he irritably told her to shut up, and his bloodshot eyes suddenly glared at Mei Shu. “Where did you get that receipt?”

Mei Shu innocently held out her hands. “I found it in our yard, where we usually store random items. I was wondering if Aunt Wang had sold her own jewelry, but I didn’t expect it to be Mom’s!”

With Mei Shu’s reminder, Mei Yun suddenly realized something.

If Wang Yue was truly innocent, then why would she mention the safe in the study when Mei Shu presented the receipt?

If she were wrongly accused, she should deny having sold the necklace, not immediately think of the safe where he kept Bai Ling’s belongings!

“Wretched woman, you dare to play innocent!” Mei Yun’s anger could no longer be suppressed. He grabbed Wang Yue by the collar and dragged her up the stairs.

Mei Mu had snapped out of her daze by then and hurriedly rushed to intervene, wailing, “Dad, Mom would never mess with your things. There must be a misunderstanding! We can’t be hasty in believing that the receipt from Sister is real!”

“Whether it’s real or fake, 1’11 know as soon as I investigate!” Mei Yun held onto the receipt, and upon seeing the address on it, he had his secretary find the person in charge of the store and inquire about the sale details according to the date and time on the receipt. Soon, the truth about Wang Yue selling the necklace was completely exposed.

Wang Yue had no way to deny it.

Mei Yun held her by the neck and pressed her against the handrail on the stairs. He roared hysterically, “Tell me, what did you do with the money?”

“Tell me, what do you need so much money for?”

Wang Yue was choked by his grip and couldn’t speak, her face quickly turning bright red.

Zhao Yan hurriedly stepped in to mediate, “Mr. Mei, please calm down. It wouldn’t be good if you accidentally hurt Madam. Since the necklace has been sold, just buy it back with the money!”

Upon hearing this, AAei Yun finally released his grip, staring coldly at Wang Yue, “I’ll ask you one last time, where is the money?”
