Supreme Heir Son-in-law-Chapter 1040 - 1039: Right and Wrong, Black and White

Chapter 1040: Chapter 1039: Right and Wrong, Black and White

Han Ning walked to the front of the car; it seemed deserted here, with luxury cars lined up ahead.

When would she ever be able to live such a life?

A life to be envied. Han Ning swore in her heart that she must let her grandmother live such a life in the future.

She had left early today, without putting on much clothing, and felt a bit cold all over.

She thought it must be the dampness of the underground garage that made it so chilly,

so she decided to find a brighter place, where it wouldn’t be so cold.

Just as she was about to walk forward, a strange woman’s voice stopped her in her tracks.

The woman seemed unfamiliar to her. "If you do this and they find out, all our plans will go down the drain. Are you sure you want to continue?"

"But if we don’t, do you really believe your son will let us off so easily?"

Han Ning widened her eyes in disbelief. Could the son they were referring to be Suzhou? How ridiculous.

She covered her mouth tightly. Why wouldn’t this woman even spare her son?

She decided to listen further to see what exactly they were talking about.

"No way, don’t worry, I’ll handle this. Hanhan is back now, Suzhou is no longer useful. Don’t forget, Hanhan is our child together; the future of the Su family depends on our son."

The man didn’t look too happy; his concerns lay elsewhere. If someone overheard this, never mind staying at the Su family, he might end up in court.

The old man from the Su family, once angered, was not someone to be trifled with, even though he seemed so weak usually. 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂

The Su family was an empire he built single-handedly; how could he easily give it up?

"Alright, I understand. Are you saying that we should let Hanhan take over the company?"

The woman angrily glared at the man, clearly dissatisfied with his response.

"What else then? Don’t forget the things we did together back then. How could you not understand what really happened to Mrs. Su?"

Han Ning was so frightened she was about to cry out. She never expected the wealthy families to be so complicated, and she least expected she would end up working in such a place.

"Mmm... let go of me, let go!"

"Be quiet."

"President Su, how come it’s you?"

Han Ning opened her eyes in disbelief. So, Suzhou knew all along that this was the kind of struggle happening within wealthy families.

Originally, Suzhou was supposed to have left earlier, but a temporary email from the company brought him back. He unexpectedly saw the girl he met at the bar eavesdropping here.

However, this wasn’t entirely surprising. It wasn’t good for outsiders to know about matters involving his father’s reputation, so Suzhou never dared to take it lightly.

"My presence here is not important. What’s important is, what you saw and heard today, I don’t want a third person to know. Do you understand?"

Han Ning nodded in fright. Since her boss had spoken, how could she dare not comply?

Suzhou then took Han Ning to his office.

Everyone in the company was especially curious—no woman had ever been in their boss’s office before, not even Su’s mother.

It seemed like this girl wasn’t simple; she actually won the boss’s favor. Perhaps, she’s even his girlfriend.

The people in the design and planning departments found it very strange. They always thought their boss wasn’t interested in women, but now they knew they were wrong.

However, inside the office.

"Alright, it’s already the end of the workday today. You can come by tomorrow. I’ll explain the specifics of the job to you then."

Han Ning was dumbfounded. She had just arrived, and now she was being asked to leave—how unusual.

Could President Su have regretted hiring her, not wanting her to stay?

That was possible, but it was just a coincidence that it was indeed the end of the workday now. Perhaps he was simply telling her to leave because it was quitting time.

"Boss, I actually arrived pretty early today, but the receptionist asked if I had an appointment, so I went to the underground garage to wait for you. I overheard by accident, I really need this job, please don’t fire me."

Han Ning begged with a pleading voice.

She really needed this job. Losing her job at the bar meant if she couldn’t find another, she and her grandma would be out of options.

Suzhou didn’t expect the girl in front of him to be so naive; he hadn’t really bullied her, just told her to come to work normally tomorrow, so how did it end up like this?

It made him seem like he was the one being wronged.

Yet, this was Suzhou’s fault for not explaining things clearly earlier.

"Don’t act like this. I’ve already informed the front desk. You can start coming to work normally tomorrow. You can go now. Remember, what you saw today must not be told to anyone else."

Han Ning nodded seriously.

As long as she had a job, she wouldn’t pursue anything else.

As for the power struggles among the wealthy, she didn’t want to get too involved.

After seeing Han Ning leave, Suzhou couldn’t help but feel he saw a bit of himself in this girl.

Actually, Suzhou had long known that his mother was framed. As for the real mastermind, he still didn’t know.

Meanwhile, he knew that his brother Su Han was born to Su’s mother and another man. His own father only raised another’s son for so many years.

Luckily, his so-called brother didn’t have the same scheming nature as his mother.

For that, he rather admired him.

However, it was truly pitiful for his father, but there was no way around it. The old man from the Su family wouldn’t listen to him. For all these years, he never gave up his love for his stepmother, as if only Su Han was his real son.

What saddened Suzhou the most was that Su Zhong sacrificed his promising future for a woman. Originally, it was him who should have gone abroad for studies.

But because of a word from his stepmother, he was left in the country, and after finishing college, he inherited the family business. Now, with Su Han back, his higher education could replace his position, couldn’t it?

Suzhou had seen this coming a long time ago. Ever since his mother left this world, he bore too much unfairness.

Perhaps life is like this, but as long as he stayed true to himself, things would eventually get better.
