As soon as the man entered the room, he saw the mess on the floor, with fruits, flowers, and broken glasses scattered all over the floor. He had a slight obsession with cleanliness, so he couldn’t help but frown and said icily, “What are you doing?”

Wang Qingyu quickly squatted down to tidy up the things. “I’m sorry, Third Master. I accidentally overturned them just now. I’ll clean it up now. Please have a seat on the sofa.”

“Forget it. I’ll get the people downstairs to clean it up later.” Xi Zhimo walked to the window with his back to her and said in a forthright manner, “I have something to ask you. What was with the blood stains on the bed that day?”

Wang Qingyu looked at the man’s haughty back profile. She realized that he already knew, and if she lied now, it was no different from courting death. Fortunately, she already had a plan in mind.

Wang Qingyu sobbed and said, “I’m sorry, Third Master. I really didn’t know that I was pregnant at that time. When I saw the blood on the bed sheet, I was so scared that I ran away. After that, I went to do a checkup. The doctor said that it was because our actions hurt the fetus, resulting in bleeding. I didn’t dare to tell you that the child was my ex-boyfriend’s. However, I had already broken up with him at that time. That night, I happened to be working part-time at the Horswell Court and accidentally heard that someone wanted to harm you, so I wanted to save you. Third Master, I’m telling the truth. I was too afraid, too afraid that I would lose you, so I didn’t dare to tell you about this.”

Xi Zhimo clasped his hands behind his back and rubbed his fingertips together. After a short while, he said in a low voice, “I’ll transfer the ownership of Grace Manor to you as compensation for the child. It’s time to end this farce.”

Naturally, Wang Qingyu understood what he meant. She broke down and shouted, “No! Third Master! I don’t want anything. I just want to be with you.”

Xi Zhimo turned around and his thin lips curled into a mocking smile. “Grace Manor is not enough?”

He was mocking himself in reality.

He was laughing at how stupid he was for taking so long to see through this woman’s true nature.

Wang Qingyu was stunned by his terrifying aura. She was forced to stop in her tracks as she approached him. She could only cry and wail, “Boo hoo hoo! That’s not it. That’s not what I meant. I love you, Third Master. I just don’t want to lose you. Boo hoo hoo…”

Xi Zhimo’s eyes clouded over completely.

There were many women in this world who said they loved him, but did they really love him as a person?

If he had nothing and his appearance was ordinary, would they still love him?

However, that day, she had run away on her own even though she had already become his woman. He had thought that she was different from the rest.

At this thought, Xi Zhimo couldn’t stop smirking scornfully.

Could sincerity only be his wishful thinking?

When Wang Qingyu saw the icy, sinister smile on Xi Zhimo’s face, she was so scared that her whole body was trembling.

At this moment, how could her hypocritical love deceive his eyes?

If she angered him completely, what would she do if he also refused to give her Grace Manor? The piece of land alone in the Empire Capital’s prime location on which that residence was sitting was worth tens of millions.

However, there were no “ifs” in this world.

This man in front of her was God’s favorite. Not only did he have power and wealth, but he also had an irresistibly attractive face that was at its prime.

Who would not be attracted to him?

How could she not love him truly?

Wang Qingyu mustered her courage and wanted to say something, but Xi Zhimo strode away decisively.

She looked at the man’s noble and aloof back profile, and her heart ached terribly.

It was only after Xi Zhimo had left that Wang Qingyu dared to cry out in anger, “Ah! Ye Si! It’s all your fault!”

“I will not let you off! I definitely won’t!”

After venting her frustration, Wang Qingyu picked up her phone and dialed the encrypted number. The call was answered.

“Hello? Third Master has broken up with me. What should I do? What should I do?”

The voice on the other end replied in a neither fast nor slow manner. “Then does he believe that you were with him that night?”

“I think there is no doubt about that. But what’s the use? He still doesn’t want me anymore!”

“As long as he believes it, there’s still a chance. Don’t do anything during this period and wait for me to contact you.”

After the call was ended, Wang Qingyu threw her phone angrily onto the bed. Things had already progressed to this point. How was it still possible to turn things around?
