Xiao Lei hesitated for a moment before nodding. "It's not just for the money. I want them to pay for what they did to my parents, your grandparents. Also..."
She looked at her son for a while before continuing, "It's not fair for you. You are supposed to be the heir. You ARE the rightful heir, not any of them who are living in that house now."
She thought about the time when she found those bruises on his body, and her hands clenched involuntarily. "No one should be bullied because of their parentage, much less you, the heir to one of the biggest entertainment companies in the country."
She sighed. "At first, I thought I can keep hiding... As long as you can be safe, I'm willing to keep hiding. I didn't think that even though I could protect you from them, I couldn't protect you from the rest. I know that the kids at your school have been making fun of you, and I want to put an end to it as soon as possible."ย
