The Hidden Wife Of The Cold CEO

Immediately, she said that her aged mother's facial expression stiffened. She seems to know about the particular Qin family her daughter was talking about.

"What is so special about the Qin family that you have to interrupt my dinner?" Old Mr. Huang asked with a frown.

A middle-aged man, who looked like the first daughter of the Huang family said with a frown, "Qin family? That sounds like the surname of the guy Li eloped with years ago."

Immediately he said that there was a terrible silence, as rage boiled in Old Mr. Huang's heart. Hearing about his second daughter who eloped years ago with the man she loved, angered him greatly.

Old Mr. Huang was so angry that he clenched his fist before smashing it on the table with an angry gaze directed at his first son and first daughter.

"I thought I made it clear to never mention Huang Li's name in this family again!" Old Mr. Huang said.

Seeing how angry he was, Old Mrs. Huang and the rest of the members of the family flinched in fear.

It was only one that was bold enough to speak up and that was the last child out of the five children of Old Mr. and Mrs.Huang and she looked to be in her late 40s.

"But father, It's been over 24 years since this happened, why are you still angry with sister? Since she left the house, we have never set our eyes on her, not even once, and we also haven't heard from her."

"Did you see how you phrased your words? You said she left the house, while in the actual sense, she eloped with that poor man that we have no idea of what his identity was! That girl rejected the good marriage I arranged for her and chose to elope with a low-class man, so how do you expect me to care for her?" Mr. Huang roared.

His grandchildren that surrounded the dinner table, did not dare to continue eating. It was only one or two of them that knew of the existence of the second daughter of the Huang family but they didn't have many details, since it was taboo to mention her name or talk about her. As did the rest that had no idea of what was going on, they had a confused gaze.

"Father, you are somehow at fault. When Li rejected the marriage you proposed because she already had someone she loved, you rejected her choice and didn't bother to investigate the kind of man she wanted to marry at that time. The only thing you knew, was that he was poor and that also the only thing etched at the back of your mind." The second son said and he looked angry with his father.

"Are you blaming me now?" Old Mr. Huang asked with a finger pointed at him. He seemed more furious now.

"Father, you need to let your anger disappear, as this case has lingered for so many years. Li, is also your daughter and she was the only one that refused the arranged marriage you set for her but this happened so many years ago, you need to forget about it." The first daughter said with a frown.

"If Li's child, is actually Qin Jia Li, then that means that she is truly dead and we were not aware of that." The first son said with his fingers tapping the table.

"What? Li is dead?" Old Mrs. Huang asked as her eyes became teary. She couldn't believe that her daughter who she hasn't seen for so many years was dead. This news came as a shock to her.

The third daughter became worried seeing her mother's tears.

"Mum, we haven't confirmed the identity of the girl, so we are not sure she is Li's daughter but if she is, then I am afraid that Li is dead already since the girl said a tribute to her late parents on stage."

"No! My daughter can't die like that! She promised to take care of herself!" Old Mrs. Huang said in tears. She was truly disheartened to hear this sorrowful news.

"What are you shedding tears for? To me, Li died that same day she eloped with that man. She caused such a huge embarrassment between us and the Chu family!" Old Mr. Huang said in anger.

He was not touched to hear whether his second daughter was alive or not because to him, she has been dead for so many years.

Old Mrs. Huang got angry and said in a raised tone, "Old Huang, you caused the whole embarrassment! Li rejected the marriage but you insisted and went on to print wedding cards, what kind of father does that!"

"Are you all trying to challenge my authority? This will not happen in this house! I don't care if Li is still alive or not or if that girl is her child but none of them will ever step foot into this family! I will neither allow Li, who is my embarrassment to come back to this family, nor the child she had with that Qin guy, to step foot into this family!" Old Mr. Huang said before standing to his feet and walking away in anger.

"I can't believe that father doesn't want to let things go after such a long time." The first daughter said with a frown.

"He only cares about his face, nothing else." The first son said in disappointment.

"I wonder how he manages to sleep at night when he is bearing a grudge of so many years in his heart." The second son said with an angry gaze.

"If he can't even forgive his own flesh and blood, other people that have offended him, shouldn't bother expecting any forgiveness from him." The third daughter and the last child of the family said.

Old Mrs. Huang who was disappointed with her husband of so many years and who was also sad with the sorrowful news she just got, broke out in tears.

Seeing their mother in tears, they had to abandon their anger to comfort her, while their grown-up children watched on.
