The Empress's Transmigration into a Magnate's Wife

Chapter 35

"Thank you Mrs. Wang. This matter...could you please not mention it to anyone else?" Although Rong Dai still wanted to ask more, she had already asked too much about "herself", so if she revealed anything, it would be even more troublesome.

Mrs. Wang nodded. Seeing Rong Dai being so polite, she hesitated for a moment before earnestly advising her, "Madam, from an outsider's perspective, the Huo family lacks nothing. However, there was once a very difficult period for the Huo family. Young Master worked very hard from taking over the company to now being able to stand on his own."

"Sometimes Young Master may not be very considerate. Since you are his wife, please be more understanding, Madam. I watched all three children grow up. When Young Master was little, he followed Old Madam to learn how to manage the company. Such a young child, while others were playing, he had to study the company's affairs."

Mrs. Wang sighed. She had been in the Huo family for many years and still felt the most heartache for Huo Shaoting.

"Mrs. Wang, I will, thank you for the reminder," Rong Dai also nodded. She was just being polite with what she said.

Although there was no possibility between Huo Shaoting and Wen Shalan anymore, the two of them would still divorce after a year.

Caring about Huo Shaoting's matters should naturally be left to his future wife. It had nothing to do with her.

What was most urgent now was that she had to figure out some things. Why did the original owner sell those things and even rent an apartment outside?

Did the original have something else going on before her death?

The unknown was always the scariest. Especially with the original's series of actions, it was simply appalling!

If an ordinary person could marry into a wealthy family, wouldn't they eagerly try to solidify their status by having children or thinking of ways to please the in-laws?

Yet this original, she had offended all of the in-laws!

Hearing the two finish speaking, Huo Shaoting turned around and went back.

With a restless heart, Rong Dai returned to the bedroom, unaware that Huo Shaoting had been watching her the entire time.

She was still worried about what Mrs. Wang and Huo Meishu said. The original sold those things, but where was the money?

"What were you talking to Mrs. Wang about?" He suddenly spoke.

Rong Dai had things on her mind. Hearing his voice so abruptly, she was instantly frightened, her face pale.

"Nothing, just some minor things." Although she felt strangely uneasy inside, her experience as an empress for thirty years still remained, so she would not be coerced by just a sentence from him.

"Why don't you...go take a bath first?" She changed the subject, not wanting to say too much to Huo Shaoting. She needed time to organize her own thoughts.

Huo Shaoting looked at her, knowing she was diverting the topic. Looking at the woman before him, he had an illusion that the one now and the past one were completely different people.

He didn't even know why he would have such an absurd idea. This feeling grew stronger after hearing her ask Mrs. Wang about her own matters.

"Hm," he did not make things difficult for her. In any case, they had plenty of time. No matter what secrets she had, he had the patience to slowly uncover them.

Seeing Huo Shaoting go into the bathroom, and soon the sound of water could be heard, Rong Dai finally wiped the cold sweat from her forehead and let out a deep breath.

She had just wanted to sort out the messy thoughts in her mind when she heard a cell phone vibrating in the desk drawer.

She went over and opened the drawer to see a small, delicate pink phone. It was also a very old model.

With such a romantic color, this phone in their bedroom certainly wouldn't belong to Huo Shaoting. So it could only be the original's.

Seeing the phone continuously vibrating, she had no choice but to pick it up. She saw several messages that had been sent.

Reading each one carefully, cold sweat began rolling down her forehead.

The messages were all from the same person, and the words and tone were very intimate. Clearly this person had a close relationship with the original.

"Dear, I'm about to come back from Bali soon. Have you missed me? I got you gifts. I just withdrew all the money from that card."

"Dear, I miss you so much! I can't wait to lay in your arms and sleep, to caress you. Do you miss me too?"

"Dear, how much longer do we have to wait? This money is enough for us to spend already. Why don't you divorce him? I really can't be without you."

Slap!

As Rong Dai read the shocking messages one by one, her mind buzzed, as if countless bees had flown in.

She felt her blood run cold, almost freezing.

Did the original agree to marry Huo Shaoting just to obtain his wealth?

Who was this person?

What was his relationship with the original?

Countless questions swirled in Rong Dai's mind. Her heart nearly jumped out of her throat!

If Huo Shaoting found out about this, no, if any Huo family member knew, she would be doomed!

Forget just being kicked out, if the Huo family got angry and accused her of fraudulent marriage and extortion, then wouldn't she be finished?

She was thinking about what to do when she heard the bathroom door open. In a panic, she grabbed the phone and stuffed it into her pocket.

"You're done with your bath? Then I'll go take one."

Rong Dai had completely forgotten about the previous awkwardness between them. She practically fled into the bathroom.

She swiftly locked the door and sat on the toilet to examine the phone.

Nearly two hundred messages in total. After reading just over a dozen, she didn't dare continue.

The reason was unimportant now. Just based on these messages, the Huo family could condemn her to death!

She never imagined the original would actually dare to deceive someone like Huo Shaoting!

How gutsy did one have to be to play such a game?

She felt uneasy. Looking at the incoming message on the phone, she hesitated for a moment before sending a neutral response.

The content was very simple: "I'm going to sleep now. We'll talk about anything tomorrow. I don't want to disturb the family's rest."

She waited nearly two minutes without a reply. Just as she was about to undress and bathe, a message came in.

The content made her frown. Why did the tone seem so angry, as if commanding her?

Before she could think through the issue, a phone call came in.

Rong Dai hesitated, subconsciously glancing at the bathroom door. She turned on the shower, before cautiously answering the call.

"Xiao Dai, what do you mean by this? You went back to the Huo family?"

As soon as the call connected, an angry female voice was heard without Rong Dai even speaking.

A woman?

Hearing this voice, Rong Dai's half-dead heart eased up a little.

The original had really screwed her over. What was she even doing?

But she didn't understand why two women were speaking so intimately, as if they were lovers.
