A week later, the Huo stock plummeted by 90%, banks withdrew their loans, and partners pulled out their investments.
I sat in the president's office, watching the business news:
"The Huo crisis continues to escalate, Chairman Huo Sijue is suspected of a mental breakdown..."
"Insiders reveal: Huo Sijue has imprisoned and abused his fiancée, forcing her to have an abortion..."
"Breaking: The truth behind the accident of the interstellar heiress five years ago is exposed, the Huo is suspected of murder..."
Knock knock—my secretary tapped on the door, "President Luo, Huo Sijue is in the lobby and insists on seeing you."
I set down my tablet. "Let him come up."
Soon, Huo Sijue staggered through the door.
In just a week, he looked like he had aged ten years.
His suit was wrinkled, stubble covered his face, and his eyes were bloodshot.
"Qing Qing..." He fell to his knees, "I was wrong, please stop..."
I looked at him coldly. "Just like you stopped yourself from pushing me down the stairs?"
"I was blinded back then..."
"Blinded?" I opened my computer and played the surveillance video.
In the video, his conversation with Zhou Ming was crystal clear:
"Si Jue, the DNA report shows that she is indeed Luo Qing."
"I know. But as long as she lives, the Interstellar Group will never be ours."
"What about the child..."
"Eliminate her. I can't let her use this child to threaten me."
The dialogue in the video felt like knives piercing my heart.
"You clearly know I am the real Luo Qing, yet you play along with Su Mei's act." I fought back tears. "Tell me, is my child supposed to die just like that?"
He trembled all over. "I'm sorry... I... I was blinded by my own interests..."
"Interests?" I stood up and walked towards him. "Then where are your interests now?"
He closed his eyes in pain. "I would give you all my assets; please spare the Huo..."
"It's too late." I pressed the intercom. "Security, please escort him out."
Watching him being dragged away, I closed my eyes, and tears finally fell.
No, Huo Sijue, this is not the end. Aren't you the one who cares most about the Huo? Then I'll make sure you witness its downfall.
Just like you personally killed our child.

"President Luo, Su Mei has been arrested." The assistant handed me a report.
I opened the file and sneered, "So her real name is Zhou Mei, the younger sister of Zhou Ming."
"Yes. She has confessed everything," the assistant said. "Should we head to the interrogation room now?"
I nodded.
In the interrogation room, Zhou Mei had removed her elaborate makeup, and her former elegance was nowhere to be seen.
"Now tell me, who orchestrated the car accident five years ago?" I asked, sitting across from her.
She forced a bitter smile. "Who else could it be? It was my dear fiancé, Huo Sijue."
I clenched my fists. "Go on."
"At that time, he had just founded the Huo Corporation and was in desperate need of funds. When he learned that the Interstellar Group was looking for a son-in-law, he started getting close to you." She lit a cigarette. "But he thought pursuing you was too slow, so he approached my brother, Zhou Ming, to discuss..."
"So you two plotted the accident to make me lose my memory?"
"Exactly." She exhaled a puff of smoke. "The original plan was for you to die in the accident. But unexpectedly, you only lost your memory and were sent to a nursing home."
I scoffed. "And then you underwent surgery to look like me?"
"Si Jue said that if I pretended to be Luo Qing, he would marry me..." She suddenly laughed maniacally. "But he lied to me! He never loved me; all he wanted was shares in the Interstellar Group!"
"So that's why you revealed my identity to him?"
"Yes." She extinguished her cigarette. "I thought that once he knew the truth, he would let you go."
But he... he actually wants me to cooperate with him in torturing you, and even... " She choked on her words, "to kill your child..."
I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. "Do you know what I've been through in the sanatorium all these years?"
"I heard..." She lowered her head, "They injected you with drugs to prevent you from recovering your memory..."
"Enough." I stood up. "The law will give you and Zhou Ming the justice you deserve."
As I turned to leave, something else came to mind. "By the way, where is Huo Sijue now?"
The assistant immediately replied, "He waits for you every day at the Interstellar Group building. He... seems to have gone mad."
I sneered. "Good. Let him keep waiting. I want him to witness how the daughter of a wealthy family he once wanted to marry brings him back to his true self."
As I walked out of the interrogation room, I glanced at my phone. The top news story was still about the Huo family's plummeting stock prices.
That wasn't enough.
I want everyone who has harmed me to pay the price.
