Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 508 - 509: Conditions for Marrying into the Huo Family 7

Chapter 508: Chapter 509: Conditions for Marrying into the Huo Family 7

But they didn’t dare to resist, only accepting this unreasonable agreement.

They believed that what grandmother said, she would definitely do.

Grandmother, as a young widow, raised her son alone.

Her son died relatively early, so she also raised her grandson alone.

During all these years, the large Huo Family was supported by only one woman.

Such a woman, without a certain perseverance, couldn’t have supported it until now.

Song Yi and her mother didn’t linger long at the old house and left immediately.

Song Yi was planning in her heart to have a talk with Huo Shaohua.

At least persuade him to get the marriage certificate first; as long as they got the marriage certificate, there would be nothing to fear.

Huo Group.

Huo Shaohua finished handling his work and stood in front of the floor-to-ceiling window smoking.

Adjusting his state of mind, he had already decided to marry Song Yi and take responsibility for her.

Having promised her to keep a distance, he couldn’t have any inappropriate thoughts anymore.

This was good for both her and him.

Andy knocked a few times at the door without receiving any response, so he could only push the door open and come in.

Upon entering, he saw Huo Shaohua standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window. From this angle, President Huo’s back looked very lonely...

"President Huo."

"What is it?" Huo Shaohua responded and turned around, walking to his desk to stub out his cigarette in the ashtray.

Ever since Tianxin came, he had quit smoking, but recently, due to his anxiety, he had started smoking again.

Even more so than before.

"Miss Song says she wants to see you. She’s been calling you, but you didn’t pick up, so she called me." 𝘧𝑟𝑒𝑒𝘸𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝘷𝑒𝓁.𝘤𝘰𝓂

"I got it. I’ll call her back. You can go back to your work."

"Yes." Andy looked worriedly at President Huo before finally walking out.

Song Yi anxiously waited for him to come back at the villa, planning to have a proper talk with him.

All other conditions could be agreed to, but the first one she simply couldn’t accept.

She didn’t intend to have the child, so they definitely needed to get married in advance.

Huo Shaohua returned after work, and he and Song Yi talked in the living room.

He was also very surprised by the conditions grandmother had put forward; he didn’t expect her to ask for something like this.

"Shaohua, I can agree to all the other conditions, but the first one I just can’t accept! I can’t have an out-of-wedlock child; we can’t let our child be an illegitimate child." Song Yi held Huo Shaohua’s hand, patiently and aggrievedly explaining.

She deliberately mentioned the word "illegitimate child," hoping it would remind him of Tianxin.

He would surely agree to get the certificate in advance.

After all, one reason he married Tian Xingyun was to avoid having an illegitimate child.

Upon hearing the words "illegitimate child," Huo Shaohua’s eyebrows twitched slightly.

The first thing he thought of was Tianxin; he couldn’t let Tianxin’s younger siblings be illegitimate children.

Despite grandmother’s conditions, the first one simply couldn’t be obeyed.

He could ignore the other conditions, but he couldn’t let Song Yi have an out-of-wedlock child.

That would harm her reputation and affect the child’s future.

"We’ll get the certificate first." It took him a long while to utter this, and it pained him to say these words.

Thinking back to when he got the marriage certificate with Tian Xingyun, he had been furious and unwilling then.

His attitude at that time must have hurt her deeply; he had been such a jerk.

Song Yi felt joy in her heart but didn’t show it.

She clutched his hand, pretending to be very scared, and said in a trembling voice, "But what about grandmother..."

"I’ll talk to grandmother. Don’t worry." Huo Shaohua curved his lips slightly, comforting her.

"Alright, in that case, I’m relieved." Song Yi sighed in relief and smiled. As long as Shaohua agreed, there would be no problem.

No matter how much grandmother disapproved, there was no way around it. Once the marriage certificate was in hand, everything would be easier to handle.
