Lin Qiqi froze, her lips parting slightly.
Lin Peiru said, "He hit me. How can you expect me to endure it any longer? Besides, besides..."
"Besides what?"
"That bitch is forcing me to divorce your dad, and when I refused, she slapped me... She gave the divorce papers to your dad. Who knows how he'll torture me when he gets out in a few days..." Lin Peiru was trembling all over, as if trapped in a state of immense fear. "We have to press charges. Get him locked up for a few years. It's the only way we can get away from him..."
A moment of silence fell.
Lin Qiqi couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. "Get away? How are you planning to do that? With your reputation, you think you can marry anyone else?"
She mercilessly pointed out the brutal truth, making Lin Peiru's face stiffen. The resentment churning inside her twisted her well-maintained features, and even the way she looked at Lin Qiqi was tinged with hatred.
