Step Aside, My CEO Ex-Husband!-Chapter 519 - 520 Strange Couple 10

Housekeeper Liu had been discovered while following Huo Shaohua, and had been tortured in the process.

They didn’t need such useless people; useless people had no value.

The only option was death!

Huo Shaohua smoked a cigarette while driving, needing to return to the old house to check the files.

These people had ill intentions, and he worried they would target the old house.

It had been a long time since he last acted; those two useless people were truly worthless.

They collapsed before he even got serious, likely not making it back alive.

He suddenly thought, what if Tianxin inherited his position in the future?

Would his daughter have to become...

That wouldn’t do; such a burden was not suitable for a girl.

The responsibility of the Huo Family heir was more than managing the company.

It also involved protecting the Huo Family, mastering skills through secret training!

Only by protecting oneself could one protect those around them.

When he was young, he suffered greatly during Second Uncle’s training.

Sometimes, he wanted to give up, to not be the Huo Family heir.

He hated this identity, it made him feel suffocated.

He couldn’t let Tianxin endure such hardships; she was the Huo Family’s treasure.

She should enjoy a princess-like life, and these hardships should be borne by men. 𝙛𝓻𝒆𝓮𝒘𝙚𝙗𝒏𝙤𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝒐𝙢

Although Song Yi was pregnant, he wasn’t very happy about it.

He also understood why Grandma signed that agreement with Song Yi.

If Song Yi gave birth to a son, he would inherit the Huo Family’s responsibilities.

But looking at Song Yi’s current state, there was no way he could trust her with raising a son as the heir.

Song Yi would certainly interfere with everything regarding the child; he would rather she had a daughter.

Even if she couldn’t inherit the shares, being the Huo Family’s second miss was enough.

The burden would fall solely on Tianxin, though he couldn’t bear to see his daughter suffer.

But the Huo Family’s rules stated that the heir must be of Huo blood.

Not even a husband or wife could help.

His precious Tianxin would have to endure hardship.

Huo Shaohua first went to the company to deal with some matters, then returned to the old house.

He entered the Huo Family’s secret room to search for clues, but found nothing after a long time.

It was nearly dinner time and he still hadn’t come out, making Grandma a bit worried.

That brat came home and went straight inside; had something happened?

Just as she was about to ask Housekeeper Liu to check, Huo Shaohua walked into the dining room.

"Shaohua, is there something the matter?" Grandma asked worriedly.

"Nothing much, just organizing things inside. I messed it up last time I was in there." Huo Shaohua explained as he took a seat on the left side of the table.

"Take good care of those things; they were passed down by our ancestors." Grandma reminded him, worried about whether he and Xingyun could manage the Huo Family after she was gone.

"I know."

"Song Yi mentioned the agreement to you, right?" Grandma said with a smile, knowing Song Yi wouldn’t dare act out in front of her.

But she was sure Song Yi had complained to Shaohua.

"Grandma, I don’t oppose the agreements, but I can’t let her have children before marriage; it’s not good for her or the child."

"No way! She must give birth to a boy before marriage." Grandma said angrily, as marrying into the Huo Family wasn’t that easy!

"Finding out the gender isn’t that difficult, right?"

"What do you mean?"

"Just let her go to the hospital for a check-up to find out the baby’s gender."

"That’s fine as well." Grandma agreed with his opinion; the child couldn’t be illegitimate.

So, Song Yi had to go to the hospital for a gender check.

"Okay." Huo Shaohua replied.

Night.

Song Yi woke up again from a nightmare, breathing heavily as she sat up.

This time she dreamed not only of the two children, but also of He Jun...

She dreamed that he really died, covered in blood and coming to seek revenge.
