Jiang Hua felt extremely awkward. After a moment of contemplation, he spoke, “Was Ling’er’s hospitalization really Jiang Jun’s doing?”

He had never been able to find the cause, so he couldn’t be sure if Jiang Jun was behind it.

A cold glint flickered in Old Master Jiang’s eyes as he replied icily, “What do you think? Only someone as malicious as Jiang Jun and Bai Xue could employ such ruthless tactics.”

Jiang Hua retorted sarcastically, “Well… he does take after his biological father. I’m just grateful that his biological father has already faced legal consequences.”

Old Master Jiang chuckled lightly without saying much, and they continued their game of chess.

Over an hour passed, and Jiang Hua lost once again.

It wasn’t as if Jiang Hua was letting his father win; he genuinely couldn’t compete with the old man.

Frowning at the chessboard, Jiang Hua sighed and said, “Dad, you’ve won again. Don’t you ever get tired of winning every time?”

Old Master Jiang took a sip of tea and replied, “No, I quite enjoy this kind of amusement.”

Internally, Jiang Hua couldn’t help but feel somewhat helpless. He stood up and said, “Alright, I have to go now. 1 have an early meeting tomorrow.”

Old Master Jiang suggested, “You’ve been working hard lately. How about having a late-night snack before you leave?”

Jiang Hua declined, saying, “No, Dad, I’m not hungry, and it’s almost ten. If I eat now, I’ll need to work out to burn off the calories.”

Old Master Jiang nodded and commented, “Self-discipline is a good thing. Your ability to maintain it is commendable.”

Old Master Jiang was very satisfied that neither of his two sons had squandered their wealth recklessly.

After this brief exchange, the two of them moved to the living room.

The butler approached them and said, “Old Master, Master, Young Master Jiang Jun called to say he won’t be coming home tonight. He mentioned he’s with the Madam.”

Old Master Jiang and Jiang Hua looked at each other. It seemed that something was going to happen soon.

Old Master Jiang instructed, “Very well, you may leave.”

The butler stepped back.

After a few more words between father and son, Jiang Hua took his leave.

Upon returning home, Jiang Hua found Lin Lin and Jiang Jun there, which was unexpected. The butler had mentioned that Jiang Jun and Lin Lin were together, and Jiang Hua had assumed they were at the villa Lin Lin had asked for.

When Lin Lin saw Jiang Hua, she approached him with anger in her voice.

“Jiang Hua, what’s the matter with you? I agreed to the divorce, so why did you bring up that matter? When you married me all those years ago, you promised to keep it a secret. Don’t you realize that it’s a stain on my life?”

Hearing Lin Lin’s words, Jiang Hua’s heart grew colder. It seemed that he had been wrong all these years.

Jiang Hua said, “Back then, you were very proud when you were pregnant with his child. You said that you wanted to use the child in your belly to get to the top. Unfortunately, the long arm of the law catches up eventually. You couldn’t fulfill your wish.”

After pausing for a moment, Jiang Hua continued to mock, “Even if he were still here, you would never have obtained your marriage certificate with him. And as for the child you were carrying, it would have been aborted. Do you even know who his original wife was? Are you still so delusional?”

Lin Lin’s heart ached, but she gritted her teeth and said, “He loved me deeply. If it weren’t for his illegal actions, we would have been married. I don’t care who his wife was. I only know he loved me. Who are you to compare me to that sad excuse for a woman?”

Jiang Hua looked disdainfully at Lin Lin, acknowledging that among people of their age, she did take good care of herself. It was because of her appearance that he had been hopelessly in love, but now, he realized she wasn’t that special.

Jiang Hua said, “Is that so? Well, what if I were to reveal that he had another son? How do you think the news would spread across the country?”

Lin Lin scornfully replied, “So what? He’s no longer alive. Do you think anyone would care about us, mother and son?”

Jiang Hua sneered, “Everyone is busy with their own lives; they won’t pay attention to the two of you. I’m talking about his wife, that woman you look down upon. Do you think she wouldn’t do anything to get back at you?”

Lin Lin hesitated, her heart in turmoil. Though she hadn’t met this woman, she knew she was a foreigner.

Jiang Hua self-mockingly said, “I’ve tried many ways to protect you and your son all these years. What did 1 ultimately achieve? Well… considering you gave me two children, I won’t betray you. But I warn you, be careful.”

Lin Lin looked at Jiang Hua sinisterly and said, “Are you really not afraid that 1’11 tell that old fart about Jiang Jun’s identity?”

Jiang Hua said with a cold face, “We’re still husband and wife. I’m warning you to watch your words. Since I’ve decided to get a divorce, I’m naturally prepared. If you don’t mind losing everything, be my guest!”

Lin Lin glared at Jiang Hua with malice.. “Are you threatening me?”
