Qiao Mu bit her lips as her whole body went limp with relief. But the nervousness still lingered in her heart.
His words had been filled with ridicule and disdain. She clenched her fists, feeling extremely upset.
He had been completely unaware of her life in the Qiao family all these years. He had once given her three years of happiness, but she had been standing on her own feet for the following ten years.
With the Qiao Family, she could not afford a single misstep. Why was he treating her like this when he only had this much leverage?

Dinner was ready by the time Qiao Mu went downstairs.
The butler saw her and said with a smile, "Second Young Mistress Qiao, come and have dinner. The young master's waiting for you."
"Uncle Chen, I won't be eating here. I'll make a move first." Qiao Mu hung her head low as she headed for the entryway.
He probably did not wish to see her after being so angry just now.
