Chapter 1215: Xia Yehua’s Marriage (10)

“Your big brother was beaten till his life was just hanging by a thread. Literally. His back was almost flayed and, in that weather, it would have gotten easily infected. I knew he was using it as an excuse to take revenge. At the time, I’m sure he thought that all the better if the boy died from the beating. Later on, your brother was taken down and untied. I called the ambulance and wanted to send him to the hospital, but your father stopped me and only called the family physician. You know, I inadvertently overheard his conversation with the doctor.”

Shen Zihao had never known about these things. He widened his eyes and looked at Xia Yehua in disbelief.

Shen Liangchuan had almost died from being beaten by Dad?

In addition, Xia Yehua had said that she had overheard Dad and the doctor talking. What was that conversation about?

As he wondered this, Xia Yehua said, “At the time, the family physician said that your big brother’s injuries were too serious and that he needed to go to the hospital for treatment and observation. Otherwise, the wounds could have gotten infected and it would have threatened his life.”

Shen Zihao’s pupils shrank back at her words.

Xia Yehua continued, “I panicked when I heard that. I was going to dash up to your father and ask him to take your big brother to the hospital, but I heard him say…”

Even though this had happened many years ago, she could still hear his cold and cruel voice in her ears saying, “There’s no need to do that, just give it some basic treatment and it will be fine.”

The family physician started to sound anxious. “But Mr. Shen, this could cost the patient’s life!”

Shen Xiu was quiet for a moment before he said, “That’s exactly what I want—his life.”

Xia Yehua froze and was stupefied at once.

She looked at the two men before her in a daze and saw that the family physician was shocked too.

Shen Xiu had said, in part to convince himself, in part to explain to the man, “Urgh, that rebellious son, he only knows how to suck up to the Senior Master to the extent that he keeps comparing us. The Senior Master’s favorite phrase is: You can’t even hold a candle against a three-year-old kid! Tell me, if I were to destroy his precious grandchild, wouldn’t I then secure my position?”

Xia Yehua repeated every word that Shen Xiu had said.

Shen Zihao was so shocked that he stood frozen on the spot, in a daze.

With a look of disbelief, he stared at Xia Yehua and asked, “Is- is everything you’ve just said true?”

Xia Yehua cast her gaze down. She understood that he wasn’t suspecting her, but was simply too shocked.

She continued calmly, “I was so frightened at the time. I wanted to take your big brother to be treated but he was 18, a grown boy, and I couldn’t move him by myself. Because his condition and treatment couldn’t be delayed, I took the opportunity when he was on the phone with Mei Feng to go up to him and rebuke him. I then demanded a divorce.”

Shen Xiu hadn’t agreed at the time because of the a.s.sets’ division.

But Xia Yehua had had no time to waste.

Shen Liangchuan had been in a bad condition. Hence, she had taken whatever personal savings she had and had left the Shen Family, one could say, penniless.

Her story ended.

A silence fell over the study

Shen Zihao was still shocked and had not recovered from the daze.

He could never have imagined something like that could have happened at the time.

Seeing that he was deep in thought, Xia Yehua stood up and turned to leave.

As she came to the doorway, Shen Zihao suddenly called her, “Mom.”

She turned around.

He looked up at her and asked, “Did you like Li Mao at that point in time?”
