Chapter 232 Useless
Chief of Police residence.
Si Xinyue invited her best friends and sisters Feng Wan, Bai Li and Kung Mian. As the Police Chief, her husband had been very busy ever since the Fan family's crimes were exposed to the public. He became even busier when the crimes of Fan Luo were revealed earlier today.
She wasn't complaining because these cases were very important to her and her sisters. They only found out that their dear Iris suffered so much in the hands of that evil monster Fan Luo!
The four posh ladies were all aghast and enraged when they heard the latest news. They couldn't even drink good champagne because they felt too upset.
"My husband told me that the police already submitted a request for a warrant to arrest that evil girl Fan Luo," Si Xinyue informed her friends. "They're just waiting for the judge to approve and sign the document."
"What's the judge doing? Why's he taking so long?" Bai Li asked. She was from a family of scholars and national artists. They owned one of the top private universities in the country.
"Be patient. That girl's crimes were only revealed today. They still need to confirm the authenticity of the crimes she committed. There's not only one crime that she committed after all. But I agree with you. I hope that the judge can sign the arrest warrant today," Kung Mian said. She was from a family of influential politicians.
"I just hope that Fan Luo won't escape from the hospital before she's arrested," Feng Wan said, her narrowed eyes blazing with suppressed anger.
Among the four friends, Feng Wan was the one with the deepest background. She was born into a prestigious family of diplomats. Her late husband was from a distinguished military family. Both of their families came from a long line of old money and power whose influence extended across all the major sectors in the country. Although the Jins and the Lus shined the brightest right now, they couldn't even compare to the combined status of Feng Wan and her late husband within the exclusive circles of high society within the country and beyond. She and her family just lived low-key lives despite their high status.
"It will be difficult for that evil girl to escape," Si Xinyue replied. "My husband sent a number of police officers to surround the hospital to block any of her attempts of escaping. They're also there to prevent the angry mob outside the hospital from going out of control. They're not stopping the mob, though."

"Good," Feng Wan commented with a nod."I feel so sorry for our dear Iris. Poor girl." Bai Li sighed, shaking her head.
Kung Mian shook her head as well. "I wonder how she's doing now. I hope she's alright."
The four posh ladies continued to talk about Iris. They were waiting for the next development in this situation, ready to use their own respective backgrounds to provide support if needed.

Shrill screams and banging sounds filled a private hospital room. The doctors, nurses and other medical staff passing by the hallway outside glared at the door after hearing the noises. They all knew about the criminal staying in that room. Many of them were tempted to storm inside the room and beat the crap out of that evil woman. However, they were still medical professionals at the end of the day.
Inside the room, everything was a mess. Fan Luo was screaming and throwing everything she could get her hands on. Her mother just stood there, silently watching her with a cold expression.
"Why?! Why is this happening to me?!!" Fan Luo cried.
Just this morning, everyone was still on her side despite the exposé of her family's crimes. She was still the perfect lady that people looked up to. But now everything turned upside-down!
She wasn't really ill after her "attempted suicide". The slash on her wrist was just a superficial wound. The doctor who admitted her was on their side. He was also the one who helped her with the abortion, writing it off as miscarriage on her medical record, and also for "diagnosing" her with depression when she wasn't really depressed.

"Mom, what are we going to do? They're going to arrest me!"Fan Yuming's expression became ugly. They tried escaping earlier with the help of the doctor but a nurse snitched on them and they were caught. They also didn't expect that the police had already surrounded the entire hospital. At the moment, police officers were already stationed outside the room locking them in even without an arrest warrant. The doctor was also being held for helping them.
"I noticed that the Chief of Police has been extra hard on us ever since your father, uncles, and cousins were arrested. And now this! The police won't even let you, a lady, off!"
"Mom, I don't want to go to prison!"
"Stop whining, Luo Luo!" Fan Yuming snapped. "Let me think. Our friends have all turned their backs on us, those bastards and b*tches. We've helped them so much by connecting them to the Jins but this is the thanks we get? And this is all Liwei's fault! Everything started going downhill ever since he rejected our company's business proposals. He must've already planned our downfall since then. I don't know how our family offended him but he's an a**hole! Curse him to hell!"
"Think of something, Mom! Time is running out!"
"Be quiet. I guess our best choice is to ask Huang Yuyan for help. Although we're now on bad terms with her sons and the Jins, that fool is so easy to manipulate. I'll just cry a little and she'll help us for sure. She also loves you like a daughter. You have to do your part and cry to her as well."
"I understand, Mom."
Fan Yuming called Huang Yuyan on the phone but discovered that her number had been blocked. She threw her phone against the wall in rage.
"That disloyal b*tch! I've sacrificed so much of my time pleasing her and even helping her weak pathetic self after her husband's death! And this is how she repays me?! F*ck you, Huang Yuyan!"

Fan Luo's panic jumped to overdrive. "Mom! What are we—""Shut up! You're useless! I already paved the way for you to wrap your little finger around Chonglin, but look! You couldn't even control him! Despite becoming his fiancée, you only let him become estranged from you! I regret marrying into this family, even changing my surname to Fan. I made the Fans great! Without me, the Fans will still be a little local pawnshop! Even with all my hard work, all of you Fans are still so useless!"
"Mom…"
Fan Yuming's face was filled with resentment and hatred. "Just because that Huang Yuyan is pretty, she managed to reel in the Jin heir. She has nothing besides her beauty! She's dumb and weak. If I met the Jin heir first, I would've been Madam Jin instead of a fool like her. Then all of these wouldn't have happened!"
Fan Luo couldn't refute her own mother, so she directed her fury at another person instead. "This is all the fault of that sl*t Iris Long! My perfect image is ruined and everyone hates me now because of her!"
Fan Yuming and Fan Luo were indeed mother and daughter. Both of them were hating and blaming other women for their own misfortune. The mother hated Huang Yuyan, while the daughter blamed Iris Long.
