Chapter 306: Domineering

As they continued talking, An Muxin's personal maid, Cui Zhu, ran over from the direction of the West Garden.

She ran toward them, and after exchanging a glance with An Muxin in mid-air, she began shouting loudly:

"Miss, something terrible has happened! Mrs.… Mrs. Huo, Mrs. Huo…"

She appeared extremely agitated yet reluctant to say more.

At this moment, An Muxin turned to look at Huo Shaoyan.

Sure enough, Huo Shaoyan came to a halt as a result of Cui Zhu's words, and in a suddenly icy tone, he asked her, "What happened to Mrs. Huo?"

Cui Zhu stammered, "Mrs. Huo… she… she's gone."

The moment these words left her mouth, Huo Shaoyan's breathing turned astonishingly heavy.

Due to the intensity of his breathing, his entire chest began to heave.

Huo Shaoyan's throat bobbed, and his bloodshot eyes locked onto Cui Zhu as he asked, his voice deep and desperate:

"Just now there was a report from the West Garden saying the Madam merely fell—how could she suddenly pass away?"
