“You…” Senior Mrs. Shen was mad when Gu Ning disdained her. “Very well, let’s see!”
Without delay, she took out her phone and made a call.
Gu Ning stared at Junior Mrs. Shen, then asked, “What do you plan to do now?”
Junior Mrs. Shen looked sad. “I’ll get a divorce. It’s my baby. I’ll raise her by myself.”
Gu Ning actually wanted to know Junior Mrs. Shen’s attitude. If it was just Senior Mrs. Shen’s idea and had nothing to do with Junior Mrs. Shen’s husband, there was no need for Junior Mrs. Shen to get a divorce. However, it seemed that Junior Mrs. Shen’s husband also valued boys over girls so Junior Mrs. Shen chose to get a divorce.
“You can leave, but don’t ever try to take the manor back,” said Senior Mrs. Shen in a hurry. It was a very expensive manor, and she wouldn’t allow Junior Mrs. Shen to take it back.
“It’s my family’s property. Why can’t I take it back?” Junior Mrs. Shen shouted angrily.
Given the current situation, she didn’t need to please Senior Mrs. Shen any longer. After all, Senior Mrs. Shen wanted her new-born daughter to die. She hated Senor Mrs. Shen to death now!
In the past, she tolerated Senior Mrs. Shen’s temper for their family’s harmony, but it didn’t mean that she would grin and bear it.
The way Senior Mrs. Shen treated her new-born daughter really hurt her deeply.
“Shu Fangyi, the manor is your dowry, and it belongs to our family now,” said Senior Mrs. Shen in a domineering tone.
Shu Fangyi was the name of Junior Mrs. Shen.
“It was mine before I got married. It belongs to me. Even if I marry into your family, the manor has nothing to do with the Shen family. Don’t forget that I’m not your daughter-in-law yet according to the law! Although my father’s gone, you can’t bully me as you want. I can sue you!” said Shu Fangyi.
Because Shu Fangyi’s father had already passed away and her mother was in bad health, Senior Mrs. Shen always disdained and slighted her. She had no support behind her.
Normally, Senior Mrs. Shen only hurled verbal abuse at Shu Fangyi and wouldn’t really torture her.
Shu Fangyi’s husband, Shen Liang, treated her without much affection, but she accepted it for the baby.
In fact, she was aware that both Senior Mrs. Shen and Shen Liang valued boys over girls. Once they learned that it was a girl baby, Senior Mrs. Shen told her to have an abortion. Shen Liang agreed, but she refused. Afterwards, Shen Liang’s father, Shu Fangyi’s father-in-law, stood out and stopped them, so the baby was kept.
Shen Liang’s father also wanted a grandson, but he disagreed on having the girl baby aborted. Anyway, Shu Fangyi could deliver again. Therefore, Shu Fangyi didn’t have an abortion.
Unexpectedly, Senior Mrs. Shen didn’t want the girl baby and insisted on sending it away. She even said that Shen Liang agreed. Therefore, Shu Fangyi decided to get a divorce.
If Shen Liang had treated her well and stood out for her, she wouldn’t divorce him. If it had nothing to do with him, they could just keep their distance from Senior Mrs. Shen. Unfortunately, even her husband was unwilling to protect her.
“Don’t try to scare me with the law. It’s the dowry, and it belongs to us now.” Senior Mrs. Shen didn’t take Shu Fangyi’s words seriously at all. She knew little about the law, and was extremely selfish, so she believed it was hers.
“Let’s go and see!” Shu Fangyi argued. No matter what, she wouldn’t allow them to steal the manor from her.
The property deed of the manor belonged to her. She didn’t believe that they had the ability to transfer it to their name. As long as they didn’t have her signature, it would still be illegal even if they stole the manor from her through connections.
“Don’t keep me waiting!” Senior Mrs. Shen snorted.
“May I help?” Gu Ning asked.
Shu Fangyi showed worries. “The Shen family is a major family in City B. I don’t want to drag you into trouble.”
Although the manor was hers and they couldn’t get the property right without her consent, she was worried that they would play dirty tricks.
“Do you think I dare to help you without any influence? The Shen family is barely comparable to me. I promise you can keep your own property and you’ll get paid for what you’ve suffered,” said Gu Ning. She couldn’t care less about the Shen family.
Hearing that, Shu Fangyi realized that Gu Ning must be an important figure.
“No way! We won’t give her a cent,” said Senior Mrs. Shen furiously. She refused to return the manor, so it was impossible for her to pay compensation. “Oh, and it’s none of your business, so you better not get involved.”
Senior Mrs. Shen was afraid that Gu Ning was more influential than the Shen family, so she didn’t want Gu Ning to be involved.
“If you don’t want me to be involved, after the divorce, she should get back what belongs to her and the compensation paid by the Shen family,” said Gu Ning. She definitely knew that Senior Mrs. Shen wouldn’t agree, so she was just making fun of her.
“Impossible!” Without surprise, Senior Mrs. Shen got angrier. It was impossible for her to agree on that.
“Miss, please help me hire a good lawyer. I’ll be very grateful for your help,” said Shu Fangyi. She didn’t lack money to hire a good lawyer, but she couldn’t find one by herself.
First, she didn’t have power or influence, while the Shen family was much more influential than her, so it was hard for her to find a good lawyer who was willing to help her against the Shen family.
Shu Fangyi felt very lucky that she ran into a young girl who had a strong sense of justice, or she honestly would have had no idea what to do today.
“Sure,” said Gu Ning. She didn’t need Shu Fangyi to thank her. She simply hated them bullying a weak woman and a new-born baby like that.
After that, Gu Ning handed the baby to the doctor. At this moment, the baby was totally fine, but it still needed a medical check to set Shu Fangyi’s mind at rest. “You can take the baby to have a medical check now, but don’t let anyone take it away except for the mother.”
Although the doctor was displeased with Gu Ning’s attitude, she didn’t dare to allow anyone else to take the baby away because she was unwilling to be dragged into trouble.
Senior Mrs.. Shen wanted to steal the baby, but she could barely move now, let alone steal it.
