Chi Yue instinctively gripped her glass tighter, her breathing becoming tense.
The following sound was Mrs. Bai Senior's scolding, "How many times have I said it, do not mention that person in this house!"
"So what if I mention him? If he finds out about Chi Yue's existence, would you let him take Chi Yue away?"
"Impossible! After what he did to my daughter, how could I possibly let him take away a child for nothing! And you, from today onwards, you are not allowed to mention that person again, or you will never see Yueyue again!"
...
Chi Yue returned to her room and closed the door, her breathing still not calm.
Her phone rang, and she walked to the bed to pick it up, her hand still trembling uncontrollably.
"Come down."
The man's deep voice came through the receiver.
"You're downstairs?"
Her voice sounded a bit off.
Fu Rongyin might not have noticed it as he repeated, "If you don't come down within five minutes, I'm coming up."
