When Cold Thunder spoke these words, Chu Yun was left speechless.
All along, she had thought that Lu Kenian was eyeing Cold Thunder, but she never expected that the one who was actually watching closely was Cold Thunder himself!
The love from Cold Thunder and his soft-heartedness were her only bargaining chips.
But now, she had lost everything.
Cold Thunder closed his eyes and sighed resentfully, rubbing his temples.
He hadn't intended to say so much; he only wanted to calmly end this marriage.
"I have transferred a property in the city center into your name, and I have also deposited one million into your bank account. This is my final act of kindness; do as you see fit."
After saying this, Cold Thunder stood up.
" Cold Thunder, are you planning to go find her?" Chu Yun finally spoke, her voice sounding very calm.
"It’s impossible for me and her now. All I want is to take care of Xiao Bei and live well."
Cold Thunder walked step by step toward the door, and when he reached it, he suddenly stopped.
"I am indeed very much like Lu Kenian, whether it’s our difficult childhood experiences or our striving efforts. However, the only difference between you and her is that she never relied on others for hope because she knew that the only dependable person in this world is oneself. I hope you understand this truth sooner rather than later."
Cold Thunder opened the door and walked out without looking back.
Chu Yun pounded her fists hard against the floor, her cries echoing in the bedroom.
Yet, she could no longer call back Cold Thunder.
Cheng Ying sat in the living room sipping tea, and with such a great disaster befalling the Cold Family, she seemed to have aged significantly.
“Mom!” A sorrowful cry came from upstairs.
Chu Yun almost tumbled down the stairs and rushed to Cheng Ying's side, kneeling on the floor.
“Mom, I beg you, don’t let Cold Thunder divorce me! I will be a good daughter-in-law and take care of Xiao Bei as her mother. I promise I will change, Mom, please!”
As she spoke, Chu Yun repeatedly knocked her head against the floor.
Cheng Ying immediately set her teacup down on the table.
“What did you say? Cold Thunder wants to divorce you?” Cheng Ying was unaware of this matter beforehand.
“Yes! He will definitely listen to what you say! For the sake of the Cold Family ’s reputation, please give me another chance. I will definitely turn over a new leaf!”
Chu Yun continued to knock her head hard, and soon there were traces of blood on her forehead.
Cheng Ying had become Chu Yun's last glimmer of hope.
The Cold Family had always valued their reputation, and they had kept the reason for Cold Haocheng's hospitalization tightly under wraps.
“The Cold Family ’s reputation? Hmph, Chu Yun, you’ve grasped my weakness. You know that for the sake of the Cold Family ’s face, I won’t let Cold Thunder divorce you, so you’re acting so recklessly, aren’t you?”
Chu Yun continued to knock her head. “I was wrong; I won’t dare again. I really won’t dare again!”
“Yes, you were indeed wrong. I was wrong too. When Cold Thunder wanted to marry you back then, I shouldn’t have agreed. Now it has led to a big mistake. What reputation matters? As long as my son and grandson are well, I will be satisfied.”
Cheng Ying's face remained calm and unperturbed.
"Chu Yun, to be honest, if it were the old me and I knew what you did to Xiao Bei, I would have skinned you alive! But... Xiao Bei has survived this ordeal, and Cold Thunder and I have agreed to let it go. You can leave now! The Cold Family will spare you this time!"
Cheng Ying waved her hand at Chu Yun.
She didn't even want to look at her daughter-in-law.
Blood trickled down Chu Yun's forehead along her nose, and what she saw in Cheng Ying was indifference and ruthlessness.
How foolish she had been to show such respect and filial piety to this mother-in-law in the past!
"Mom, I beg you, please! Just give me one more chance. If you don't give me a chance, I will have no way out!"
Chu Yun looked at the coffee table and suddenly slammed her head against it, collapsing to the floor!
Cheng Ying turned her head away, showing no sign of sympathy for Chu Yun's actions.
"Take her to the hospital and don't worry about her. Also, help me investigate how the young master’s divorce settlement regarding property is being handled."
Chu Yun was taken away from the Cold Family like this.
Cheng Ying soon received news that the Cold Thunder not only gave Chu Yun a property worth millions in the city center but also provided her with a million in savings.
How could Cheng Ying swallow this anger?
"She put my grandson through hell, and we were already merciful by not having the police arrest her. Yet she still receives so much! Go, immediately reclaim her house and freeze all her assets."
The Cold Thunder returned that night, unaware of what had happened after his departure. Upon entering the bedroom, he found that Chu Yun had taken nothing with her, so he immediately called for the servants to clean up.
The servants began to tidy up the things that Chu Yun had once used.
All the clothes, shoes, and Chu Yun's jewelry and personal items in the wardrobe, everything.
"Young Master, do we need to take all of these?"
"That's right, not a single item should be left behind. Take everything and send it to the villa in the city center. You can ask the driver for the exact address. Make sure to check carefully and don't miss anything."
"Understood."
After giving the instructions, Cold Thunder went directly to the study.
Sitting at the desk, he took out a key and opened a drawer, retrieving an old diary from inside.
Three years ago, Chu Yun had given him this diary, detailing Lu Kenian's crimes.
Cold Thunder had kept this diary treasured all this time.
It turned out that Lu Kenian had always liked him.
How ridiculous.
If only he had been a bit braver back then and confessed to Lu Kenian, perhaps so many subsequent events could have been avoided.
Although all of this was part of Chu Yun's scheme, Cold Thunder knew that if he had been calmer, more careful, and less soft-hearted, maybe such a grave mistake wouldn't have occurred.
Unfortunately, there are no "ifs."
He had nearly memorized the contents of the diary, but he no longer had the courage to face Lu Kenian.
Chu Yun lay on the cold hospital bed.
The silence around her was terrifying.
A bandage was wrapped around her forehead, and her eyes were hollow.
In the past, whenever she fell ill and was hospitalized, at least two servants would be busy attending to her, and the Cold Thunder would always set aside their work to keep her company.
But now, there was not a single person by her side.
Three days later, she was ready to be discharged. Chu Yun went to pay the medical fees and handed her bank card to the cashier.
She had no cash on her, only a pile of bank cards.
"I'm sorry, miss, but this card cannot be processed. Could you please try another one?"
Chu Yun didn't think much of it and immediately handed over another card.
However, after trying three different cards, none of them worked!
She had no idea which bank card Cold Thunder had transferred the money to; she could only try each one!
But in the end, every single bank card failed to work!
