Reborn as a True Heiress and Becomes a Boss

Chapter 217 Let’s get a divorce

Seeing Su He about to leave, Dong Juncong quickly grabbed her, "Xiao He, why are you leaving as soon as you see us?"

Su He pulled her hand away from his. "Dong Juncong, I told you, we need to calm down! Don't come looking for me! I'm busy! I still need to find my daughter!"

Dong Juncong took a deep breath, suppressing his frustration, and asked, "Did you find it when you went to Chuanzhou this time?"

Su He's breath hitched. If she had found her, would she still be back alone with her best friend? Wasn't that a pointless question?

"Mom, have you found my sister?" Dong Sisi smiled at Su He.

Su He glared at Dong Sisi, "Don't call me that! I'm not your mother, and you're not my daughter!" She hadn't forgotten how this girl had caused her to separate from her husband.

"Sisi, Xiaohe doesn't like you calling her that. You should call her Auntie instead," Dong Juncong said to Dong Sisi.

Ao Pan rolled her eyes. Why didn't she think of this earlier? She's really clueless. She fell out with Su He because of her adopted daughter.

Dong Juncong understood Su He's feelings, but after searching for so many years, he hadn't seen any hope. Every time he had made a wasted trip, his hopes had been dashed time and time again. Although it was regrettable, he had resigned himself to his fate. Perhaps he and his daughter were not meant to be. But if Su He continued like this, she would eventually break down. He had already seen that Su He was taking medication for depression.

He was afraid that one day Su He would really leave him. Dong Juncong looked at Su He seriously and said, "Xiao He, it's been 18 years. Give up."

Su He looked at Dong Juncong again. Why did that face, which she knew so well, feel so unfamiliar now? Even he had abandoned their daughter. What would happen to their daughter?
Su He shook her head expressionlessly and said, "Dong Juncong, let's get a divorce."

"What?" Dong Juncong looked astonished. "No, Xiaohe, we won't give up. We'll keep searching. We..."

Su He interrupted him, saying, "Don't touch me! Dong Juncong, I've been waiting for you to say this today. I've had enough disappointment in you, you know? Why did my daughter go missing? I risked ruining my career to marry you, but what did you do? All you did was work, work, work. Did you ever care about me? Our relationship was completely unequal. I feel like I've been following in your footsteps all along. I'm exhausted. If I hadn't been pregnant with our daughter, I would have already filed for divorce..."

“I’m not some high-society socialite. I’m just a nobody from the bottom of society. I became an actress and a movie queen. I worked my way up step by step with blood and sweat. I never sold my body or my self-respect. I didn’t marry you to marry into a wealthy family. It’s because I like you and I love you. So what did your family do? What did you do? Ever since my daughter went missing, your parents have been constantly mocking and sarcastic towards me. You made me feel that my love is not worth it.”

Seeing the disappointment in Su He's eyes, Dong Juncong felt a surge of panic. "Xiao He, don't be impulsive, let's both calm down."

"Enough! I hate you, Dong Juncong! If it weren't for you, if it weren't for your family, how could I have given birth alone in the hospital! How could my daughter have been lost! And today you're telling me to give up my daughter? She's not your own flesh and blood, so you don't care about her? You've never loved me! Let's end this here!" Su He roared, turning her head away in disgust, not wanting to look at him anymore.

Dong Juncong shook his head. That's not how it is. He loves Su He, he loves her very much. Otherwise, why would he have worked day and night to gain complete control of the Dong Group and the family's approval as soon as possible? He was able to marry Su He in exchange for this. He had to double the size of the Dong Group in the shortest possible time, or he would have to divorce Su He.

"Xiao He." Dong Juncong stepped forward, trying to pull Su He back.

He was kicked to the ground by Ao Pan as soon as he moved, and Dong Juncong coughed painfully twice while clutching his chest.

"Dad!" Dong Sisi exclaimed and quickly squatted down to help him.

"My Xiaohe told you not to touch her, didn't you hear me?" Ao Pan clapped her hands and sneered coldly. She had disliked this man for a long time! He had made her Xiaohe suffer so many years of injustice.

"Ao Pan! You!"

"What do you mean, 'you'? You want to fight? I'm ready to fight you to the end!" Does he think she's a fake 39th generation successor of the Ao family martial arts? "Panpan, ignore him, let's go. We've already made plans with Yuexin," Su He said, glancing at Dong Juncong indifferently.

Ao Pan nodded and followed Su He.

"Xiao He!" Just as Dong Juncong was about to chase after her, Dong Sisi grabbed his sleeve from behind.

"Dad, my heart hurts so much."

Dong Juncong turned around and saw Dong Sisi clutching her chest, her face pale. "Sisi!"

Dong Sisi's heart condition relapsed, and Su He wanted to divorce him again. Dong Juncong frowned, feeling very anxious.

"Uncle? What are you doing here?" a man asked as he walked over with a few people.

"Dong Ren, what are you doing here?" Dong Juncong exclaimed in surprise when he turned around and saw his nephew Dong Ren.

"I went to check out the next recording location for the show and just got back. What's going on?" Dong Ren asked, puzzled.

"You've come at the right time. Sisi has had a heart attack. You take her to the hospital, and I'll go after your aunt," Dong Juncong said hurriedly, before heading off to catch up with Su He and Ao Pan.

Seeing Dong Juncong's hurried figure, Dong Ren was still very puzzled. He looked at Dong Sisi and asked, "Sisi, are you alright?"

Dong Sisi's face was very ugly, and she looked at Dong Juncong's back with a dark expression.

"It's okay, I'm much better now," Dong Sisi said, shaking her head.

Dong Ren scratched his head in confusion. Wasn't he having a heart attack? How come he's saying he's fine now?
"I think I was a little anxious when I heard Mom say she wanted to divorce Dad, so my heart hurt a bit just now." Dong Sisi said, her eyes darting away as she saw Dong Ren's questioning look.

His uncle and aunt were getting a divorce! Dong Ren's eyes widened in shock. What was going on? Why were they suddenly getting a divorce? Then, realizing what was happening, Dong Ren looked at Dong Sisi strangely. His aunt had told her so many times not to call her "Mom," so why was she still doing it?

Dong Sisi smiled and said, "Brother, I'll go now. I'm going to the hospital for a check-up later."

"Do you want me to come with you?" Dong Ren asked with some concern, regardless of the circumstances.

Dong Sisi shook her head and said, "No need, I can manage on my own. You go ahead and do your work." With that, she turned and left.

Dong Ren looked around in confusion at the direction the two had left. What was wrong with this family?
Dong Juncong chased after them and saw Su He and Ao Pan get into a taxi. He immediately hailed a taxi and followed them.

Dong Juncong had a premonition that if he didn't explain things clearly to Su He today, his relationship with Su He might really be over.
