The Power Of Love

"Huh, that's lucky," Xue Ning mused. There was a niggling feeling at the back of her mind, didn't Sun Haowei also fall ill? Was he the man in question? But if he was, wouldn't her parents just straight up tell her the truth?

Then it must have been some other old man that croaked. Old rich coots were always plagued with health problems thanks to their decadent lifestyles, it wouldn't be surprising if more men croaked at the same time! 

Also, she wouldn't be shocked if Sun Tianwei had made some of these men drop dead after his takeover. He was someone willing to get rid of his competition at all cost.

"Please don't resent us," Tai Cheng pleaded. "Mom and Dad had our reasons to keep this a secret from you. We just wanted to lead a normal, peaceful life after all the upheaval we used to endure."

How could Xue Ning hold onto her anger after that? She felt all the indignant rage leech from her at the beseeching look on her father's face.
