The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1765: Chapter 1765: Debts Die with the Dead

However, if Ms. Tao doesn’t realize the situation, even if they don’t divorce, the impact on the two children will still be significant.

In the end...a choice must be made.

But Uncle Meng’s words struck Ms. Tao like a blow to the head, leaving her body rigid, her face pale, and her expression dazed.

Over the years, Ms. Tao may not have lorded over others, but she has always had the final say in the Meng family.

Moreover, given the good conditions of the Meng family, she was treated with high regard in her own home, living a very smooth life.

She never imagined her husband would mention the word ’divorce’ to her.

Ms. Tao’s legs gave way, and she dropped to the ground, tears streaming down, saying, ”My husband, you, you, I, I...”

Her lips trembled, her mind blank, unable to organize her words.

Uncle Meng sighed and looked at the equally shocked and bewildered Meng Qi and Meng Han, ”Take your mother out, let her calm down and think it over, we can talk when she’s ready.”

Meng Han’s eyes were wet, she didn’t want her parents to divorce. This was clearly her uncle’s fault, her grandfather’s fault. Even though she was usually resentful of her mother’s bias, she didn’t want this family to truly fall apart.

Shu Yu pulled her aside, ”Help your mother out first.” She felt that Meng Qi and Meng Han also needed time to prepare themselves emotionally and process the news.

Meng Han wiped her tears and went forward to help Ms. Tao up.

Ms. Tao was almost half-carried, half-dragged out by her son and daughter, with Meng Qi guiding her to the neighboring room to rest.

They quietly remained with Ms. Tao, none of the three spoke, unsure of what to say.

Ms. Tao left, but the Zhang Clan remained.

Upon hearing the word divorce, she was equally incredulous.

The development of events was beyond her expectations and escalating, and now the Zhang Clan wanted to escape the scene.

But Uncle Meng looked at her, ”You must have heard what I said earlier. Normally, if Tao Feili sold me out, even if he’s my younger brother-in-law, I would settle scores with him. But he...is dead.”

The Zhang Clan suddenly raised her head, her face a deathly white.

She just heard what, did Meng Kuan say her husband was dead?

Even though she heard the same words at the Meng family escort agency, she firmly believed it was Lu Shuyu’s deliberate attempt to disgust her; she simply didn’t believe it.

But, but why is Meng Kuan saying this too?

Both the Zhang Clan and Tao Qin nearly scrambled to stand, stumbling towards the room.

Meng Pei directly blocked them, and Uncle Meng continued, ”Once someone dies, debts are forgiven, let’s end this matter here. Just remember not to involve the Meng family in future incidents...”

”You’re lying to me!” the Zhang Clan shouted, interrupting his words, ”You’re lying, how could his father die? How did he die? If he’s dead, what will we do? What will I and my children do?”

Uncle Meng looked at the Zhang Clan’s red eyes and calmly stated, ”He died of fright.”

With a ”bang,” there was a sound from the next room, intuitively causing everyone to turn their heads, knowing that Ms. Tao, who was resting next door, heard the conversation here.

Shu Yu thought, the soundproofing of this room is truly poor.

She stood up and walked to the next room, finding Ms. Tao indeed had fallen from the chair, fainted on the ground, with Meng Qi going out to call for Doctor Mi.
