keira the ruthless lady ceo

"Mom, what should we do? The doctor said her heart isnt a match for mine. Will my illness be incurable? If Zhenxuan finds out, he definitely wont want to marry me," Gu Rourou clutched her mother Xu Meilis arm, crying in a panic.

Hearing this, Xu Meilis brows furrowed, her heart flustered, not noticing the slight movement in the fingers of the person lying on the hospital bed: "Dont worry, once this wretched girl dies, the inheritance will all be ours, hundreds of millions in assets. Cant we find a suitable heart with such wealth and advanced medicine today? You will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Gu Rourous emotions stabilized, but she still worried, "What about Brother Zhenxuan?"

Xu Meili sneered, "If it werent for this wretched girls interference, insisting on marrying Zhenxuan, you would have been married to him long ago. But now, you two even have a child. The Zhou family has always wanted a son, and shes been unable to bear one. If they knew you and Zhenxuan had a son, with Zhenxuans love for you and the Zhou familys importance, you would undoubtedly be the lady of the Zhou household."

Gu Rourous mood instantly brightened: "Mom, how should we explain this to outsiders?"

After all, the reputation of marrying her late sisters husband wouldnt sound good.

A hint of malevolence gradually surfaced in Xu Meilis eyes: "It was you who drugged him, but this wretched girl interfered, and everyone was led to believe she was the one who drugged him. Later, well say she failed in her scheme and Zhenxuan ended up with you by mistake. She felt guilty before her death and revealed the secret to you. We already tricked her into writing a will. The disgrace will be on her, so what are you afraid of?"

"But what if Gu Xiàoxiao finds out and hates us?" Gu Rourous face showed some hesitation.

"Ha, shes just a dying person. Even if she finds out, what can she do? Does a vegetative patient have the power to suddenly stand up and take revenge? Besides, shes not even a real Gu – who knows whose child she is. Its her duty to contribute to our family," Xu Meilis face was full of disdain.

Lying on the hospital bed behind them, Gu Xiàoxiao, who had been feeling guilty for not dying as planned and was worried about her sister Gu Rourous heart condition, was shocked to hear this conversation.

The information from their dialogue struck her like a bolt of lightning, and Gu Xiàoxiao felt as if her whole world had turned dark.

What was the point of blood being thicker than water when it was just a web of thorns designed to extract her value?

Since she was fourteen, she had secretly admired Zhou Zhenxuan and insisted on marrying him when she grew up. At first, Zhou Zhenxuan was very caring towards her. However, after the accident that forced him to marry her, he changed, becoming a stranger, extremely indifferent to her, and although they were husband and wife for five years, they had never shared a room!

To her surprise, all of this was the work of her mother and sister!

What was even more ridiculous was that her sister had already had a child with her husband.

She had always treated Gu Rourous child as her own. No wonder Zhou Zhenxuan was so fond of him when she brought the child back to the Zhou family.

Could a biological father not love his own son?

Reflecting on her past life, Gu Xiàoxiao had worked tirelessly for the Gu family, believing that her mother Xu Meilis care was genuine. Although she was the older sister, Xu Meili never scolded her during arguments with Gu Rourou, even scolding Gu Rourou for being unreasonable.

Later, when Gu Rourou was diagnosed with a heart condition, she worked tirelessly, and Xu Meili, fearing she would be overworked, would always prepare meals for her, saying takeout was unhealthy and home-cooked meals were better.

Everyone envied her for having such a good mother.

But it turned out that the good mother everyone saw was just a wolf in sheeps clothing, with a venomous poison hidden beneath the honeyed exterior.

Stimulated by this realization, Gu Xiàoxiao had only one thought: she must not let this malicious mother and daughter succeed!

Wake up! She had to wake up!

"Ah!" Gu Xiàoxiao shouted, and she, who was deemed a vegetative, suddenly jumped up from the bed, her eyes red with anger as she fiercely grabbed Xu Meilis neck from behind.

"How could you treat me like this? I want to strangle you! You wont get a penny of my inheritance!"

Gu Xiàoxiaos expression was so ferocious and terrifying that Gu Rourou, who had never seen such a scene, was scared to the point of collapse, pointing at Gu Xiàoxiao and unable to utter a complete sentence: "You, you, let go..."

"Help, save..."

Xu Meili struggled desperately, her face turning red and then purple, but Gu Xiàoxiaos grip was as hard as an iron clamp, unyielding.

Finally, Xu Meili stopped struggling, and Gu Xiàoxiao released her, panting heavily, her eyes filled with anger and determination as she turned to Gu Rourou.

Gu Rourou, her face pale with fear, kept backing away, pleading with Gu Xiàoxiao: "Sister, sister, please spare me."

She did not want to be strangled to death. The sight of Xu Meilis purple face, her eyes wide with fear, had terrified her.

Gu Xiàoxiao looked at Gu Rourou as if she were a dead person. Hearing "sister," her tone was full of sarcasm: "Dont call me sister! You seduced my husband, had a son, and still want my heart? How dare you dream so beautifully. Gu Rourou, rest assured, I will send you to your death without delay!"

Gu Xiàoxiao had pulled out the needle at some point, pinched Gu Rourous face, and fiercely stabbed the needle into Gu Rourous head.

The screams in the ward finally attracted many people.

When Zhou Zhenxuan entered and saw this scene, even with his strong psychological quality, he couldnt help but retreat in fear.

He swallowed hard and shakily dialed 110.

"Ha-ha. Zhou Zhenxuan, you will also be repaid!" The police arrived quickly and took Gu Xiàoxiao away. As she was taken away, Gu Xiàoxiao looked at Zhou Zhenxuan with a mocking gaze and shouted.

A week later, the trial result for Gu Xiàoxiao came out: intentional homicide, death penalty.

At Gu Xiàoxiaos request, after compensating, all her inheritance was donated to the orphanage.

The person who came to visit her before her death was not Zhou Zhenxuan, but a man she never expected.

The man who had come to propose marriage but was rejected by her because she liked Zhou Zhenxuan, Mu Nan.

"Xiàoxiao, do you know? I have waited for you for ten years. If there is an afterlife, I hope you dont be silly again, and tell me if you have anything, I will help you vent, okay?" Mu Nan, such a proud person, was tearful, his tone almost pleading.

"Im sorry, if there is a next life, I hope you dont meet me again. You should also remember to find a wife who loves you." Gu Xiàoxiaos heart was not taste, and she could only apologize.

Gu Xiàoxiao was executed.

At the moment her consciousness dissipated, the image of Mu Nan crying with tears streaming down his face flashed through her mind.

After death, Gu Xiàoxiao stayed in the world for a long time.

She saw her adoptive father Gu Dahai greedily counting the compensation to find a mistress, and she also saw Mu Nan collecting her body, guarding her spirit, and finally sending her to cremation with great reluctance.

Mu Nan cried darkly, as if he had lost his soul, telling about their memories in front of her tombstone, about his longing...
