THE CONSPIRACY

When Lin Jack reached the hospital with his wife, he saw Lin Xiao unconscious and went to the mortuary to check his brother's dead body. While he went there, the lawyer also arrived at the hospital and told Lin Jack that his brother called him today in the morning and that he wants to draft a will but till now he does not have any will and by either Lin Xiao or Lin Jack should be the new Head of the family.

When Lin Jack heard that there was still no will, he suddenly felt the last knot loosen up and saw the lawyer off. When he came back, Lin Xiao had just awakened and was crying tears rolling down her cheek. Lin Jack and his wife came to her and told her that she needs to sign the documents for the body to be taken for final rituals and they will come back to check on her after sending final respects for the brother.

Lin Xiao signed all the papers presented to her and asked Lin Jack to ask the doctor if she can participate in the final rituals of her husband. Lin Jack nodded and left the room. In the heart, Lin Jack smirked and spoke. "You orphan! You thought you will become the queen of the Lin family with the unknown blood running in your veins and order us around. Now that you have signed all the power of attorney to me, I will see that you go back to the same orphanage you came from. I wanted you to join my brother on the way as well but it's still ok. Now you will see how I make you and your child live in the hell as my brother kept me". With that, he went to the mortuary and completed the handover procedure, and sent the body back home.

He told Lin Xiao that due to multiple fractures she won't be able to leave with them, but they will come to check on her once they finish and left. Two days passed in the row, but Lin Xiao didn't see either Lin Jack or his wife and became worried. She asked Cathy who was next to her, "Dajie, can you do me a favor and make a call to Lin Jack and ask him what happened".

Cathy dialed the number provided by Lin Xiao and when the call connected after two beeps, Lin Jack picked up and said, "Hello, Lin Jack here"

Lin Xiao: "Brother Jack, I am Xiao here, I wanted to ask what happened with the rituals".

As soon Lin Jack heard her voice, he became furious and said, "You orphan, what does it has to do with you what we Lin does, remember you are not the part of Lin anymore. When that fu**er husband of yours died you should have died with him as well, but since you are alive, don't even think about bringing your shame blood in my Lin Family. The Lin head villa belongs to Lin head which is me now and your old stuff has already been thrown out of the villa. You can go back to your orphanage and don't ever return". With this, he hung up the phone.

Lin Xiao, who was hearing this was suddenly aggravated and fainted again. Nurse Cathy on the side was also very disappointed to hear and felt sad for Lin Xiao. She injected the pain-relieving injection into the drip and went out of the room. When Lin Xiao woke up again, it was almost midnight. She had almost lost her hope for living and wanted to die but then she thought she must live for her child, for the last remaining living memory of her husband.

In the morning, she called her bank from Cathy's phone and came to know that all joint accounts that she was sharing with her husband had been closed and funds have been transferred to Lin Jack's account as per her power of attorney and now only her account remains, which had a little over 50k RMB in it. She checked with Nurse Cathy for the total bill for the hospital and came to know that it was more than 20,000 and raising. She asked for Cathy's favor and wanted to discharge.

Cathy who was a soft-hearted girl and knew what happened to Lin Xiao, sympathized with her, and asked her; "Xiaoer, where will you go after being discharged from here?"

This question even puzzled Lin Xiao, who had no parents, and no family and cannot even go back to the orphanage due to the age limit. Seeing Lin Xiao dazed out, Cathy sighed and said, "Xiao, you are like a sister to me, if you don't mind, you can come to live with me. Even though my house is very small, but I live alone and with me there at least you won't have a problem changing your bandage".

Lin Xiao, who had lost everything still didn't want to be a burden on someone and said, "Dajie Cathy, I look upon you as my elder sister, but I don't want to burden you with myself. I will look for some hostel and live there till I can get some work and afford a place to live".

Cathy was very impressed with the positive attitude of Lin Xiao and very carefully held her hand and said, "Xiao'er the money you are going to spend for the hostel you can give me it's ok and as for as the work is concerned you cannot move for at least 3 months with all the fractures. Since you said you take me as your sister then there is no more talk, tomorrow we can discharge from here and you can go with me". The next day, Cathy completed all the procedures for Lin Xiao and took her home.

After all the fractures were healed on her body, Lin Xiao slowly started walking with Cathy's help and then started doing house chores. She also started looking for a job for her but due to her pregnancy, no one was willing to give her work. But this didn't make her lose hope. She wanted to get better as soon as she can so she can start working and earning for a better future of her only hope remaining, Her husband's last memory, her child.
