“Divorce her immediately! How dare she touch me! She’s plotting to kidnap and kill me!”

Nis. Zhang, her lips bitten, responded weakly, “I didn’t push her…”

“Enough, I saw everything!” Second Uncle sneered. “Ms. Zhang, you truly have a wicked heart!”

Abandoning her pretenses, Ms. Zhang turned around and walked away. Ms. Niu and Second Uncle seethed with anger, feeling a deep sense of outrage.

“She just walks away like this? How dare she!”

“Our son is foolish to show any kindness to this vile woman!”

When Shao Erlang returned in the evening, Ms. Niu and Second Uncle pressured him to divorce his wife.

Ms. Niu pounded on her chest, as if deeply wounded in her heart.

Ms. Zhang, no longer pretending, cried uncontrollably, hoping to convince Shao Erlang of her innocence, That was all she wanted. She had given up pretending.

But Shao Erlang, still enamored with her, hesitated to believe his parents’ accusations without proof. His affection for her remained.

Ms. Niu had never felt this level of fury before, especially when it was caused by someone as vile as Ms. Zhang. Overwhelmed by anger, she collapsed, leaving Second Uncle and Ms. Yan in shock.

Furious, Second Uncle pushed Shao Erlang away, his voice filled with anger. “You trust this woman over your own parents? Do you want her to harm your mother so you’ll believe us? You’re a terrible son!”

Shao Erlang was taken aback by his mother’s collapse and felt overwhelmed with guilt. He cried uncontrollably, kneeling on the ground as he pleaded, “I didn’t mean to! I didn’t mean to! I just need… I need proof!”

“What proof do you need? Do you think your mother and I orchestrated this? You know very well what your mother is like! She may be nagging and stingy, but she would never falsely accuse someone of such things!’ Shao Erlang turned pale, burdened by guilt.

Second Uncle sneered, “Even Ms. Yan witnessed everything!’

Shao Erlang suddenly looked up at Ms. Yan.

And so did Shao Silang.

Ms. Yan cursed inwardly at her father-in-law’s stupidity. How did she get caught up in this conflict?

What could she say?

She couldn’t tell the truth, as her in-laws would never forgive her. But could she tell a lie?

If she did, and they believed her, they would drive Ms. Zhang away. However, Shao Silang wouldn’t blame his parents; he would blame her for ruining his marriage.

Feeling trapped and conflicted, Ms. Yan sighed and looked down. “Father, you’re putting me in an incredibly difficult position…”

She realized that no matter what she said, it wouldn’t be well-received by her Second Brother.

Ms. Zhang screamed, “Fourth Sister-in-law, why do you hate me and spread these rumors?”

Ms. Yan responded coldly, “What did I say? I never touched Xianwen. You accused me of pushing him when you and I crossed paths. What more can I say? I can’t simply claim that you’re using your own son to frame me, can I?”

“But because of Dad’s words, I had no choice but to speak up.. Yet, no matter what I say, you refuse to admit the truth!”
