Mr. CEO Loves The Devilish Beauty

Chapter 425 - To Get This Job Done

Xu Mey felt like her brain stuttered for a moment, every part of her body went on a pause as her thoughts tried to catch up to her. Slowly, when Jun Li Na's words processed through her brain, her fingers jumped rhythmically, as if she was spasming. Then her legs gently folded and she was about to fall on her knees when Xin Qian stepped up to support her.

She felt like a marionette that had no control over this limp body anymore.

Her bowels churned and her tears slowly leaked through the corners of her eyes.

Oh, God! Her heart cried out. Please, don't let this be true!

Her face was white as chalk in fear she felt. She repeatedly shook her head as if in disbelief. It was not that she couldn't trust Jun Li Na or Wu Wang's words, it was just that in her heart she felt it already, once she accepted this truth, she'll never be able to forgive herself.

Everyone in the room was in shock like Xu Mey. They all started questioning Wu Wang because they could tell Jun Li Na won't be answering them anything. Even now, Jun Li Na was staring at Xu Mey's face that was slowly turning whiter.

Xu Mey held Jun Li Na again and questioned in a shaky voice, "What happened to my Juan?" Jun Li Na was silent for a moment and Xu Mey bellowed, "Give me an answer, damn it!"

"Shouldn't you be asking this question to yourself?" was Jun Li Na's reticence response.

Xu Mey clenched her hands to stop them from shaking as she said, "But when I left last night, she was absolutely fine."

Jun Li Na sneered, "That means it must be her mother's sudden absence that got to her in the wrong way."

"No! That's not possible!"

Jun Li Na held her arms and shook her, making her look into her eyes, "Do you realize how sensitive this age is? Do you remember what you went through when you're 8? Yes, you do! All those things shaped you into what you're today!" Jun Li Na's words were spot on and precise, "Last night, you and Jie argued because of Juan. He wanted to take the side of his daughter but you didn't want to do the same. Little Juan knew her parents fought because of her, what do you think must have come to her mind?"

Xu Mey didn't reply. And it didn't seem like Jun Li Na was actually expecting a reply from her.

"Then in the morning, the mother vanished. She ditched her kids and husband, to run off! For her own selfish reasons!" Xu Mey's lips trembled as she went on, "Little Juan's little brain noticed this abnormality as well. Then her grandmother came into the picture early in the morning and started yelling at her father. Little Juan had always been closest to her dad. Do you think seeing him going through this, she'd have felt good? Especially when she thought it all started because of her?"

"Jie sent the kids out when I went there," He Susu chimed in to say her piece.

Jun Li Na didn't even look at her as she answered, "If even after all this time, none of you haven't realized that the twins are smarter and sensitive to their change than their peers, then I really don't think we need to continue this conversation." Her eyes still had an accusing look directed at Xu Mey as she continued, "As a mother, you should know about the peculiarity of your kids well. Little Juan's body is small, her brain is capable of making countless scenarios. And a kid her age, blaming herself for ruining her parents' relationship... What crime did you put on such a young girl's head?"

"That wasn't my intention," said Xu Mey.

"If only life word according to our wishes."

Xu Mey wiped her tears and asked, "Where is my daughter? Which hospital? Tell me!"

The answer she received was from Wu Wang and ran off without caring about all the people calling her name behind her.

"We should also leave with her," someone suggested.

"Yes! Hurry up, we should also check up on Juan."

Before they could take a step, Xin Qian went back to sit down and said, "Juan is in a hospital, Not in a hotel that you're all allowed to visit. How come all of you still don't understand it? Stop sticking your noses into her life." She had a cold look in her eyes as she added, "Or the reason behind her divorce might become all of you!"

"Qian, stop cursing her relationship. And we are not trying to pry into her relationship. Juan has a relationship with each and every person in this room. We just want to see if she is okay."

Jun Li Na had turned to leave but stopped to say, "What that little girl needs the most is her parents right now! All of you are only gonna create more distance between her parents. It's better that you all take a step back from this issue." She walked out just as sassily as she came but not before leaving her words behind, "In the name of helping, stop harming their family!"

As Xin Qian sat beside Azalea again, the latter was a bit scared and guiltily said, "Mother-in-law, I didn't know my one phone call would create this big of a mess."

Xin Qian looked at her with a straight face, "I get it that you're a Zhu, but now you're part of the Xu family. There is no need to share everything with your mother about what goes on in this house. Because that means, you still don't consider the people in this house as your family."

"But I do, I consider everyone in this home as my family," said Azalea hastily.

Xin Qian stood up and sighed out, "Family members don't broadcast their personal matters to the whole world. No matter how big that matter is! It should stay within a family!"

She picked up her bag and left the living room. Outside at the door, she was met with her ex-husband who looked at her with a complicated look in his eyes.

"If only you had been this smart back then," said Xu Cheng.

Xin Qian snickered at herself, "What's the point of saying this now? Time won't turn back."

She had just taken a step down when she heard his voice again, "Thank you!" She turned around with a raised brow. "Thank you for making her see the harsh reality!"

She shrugged her shoulders, "It was a mother's job, to begin with. It's a shame it took me too long to get this job done!"
