Almighty Daughter Runs The World

Chapter 2: Cut Ties

Mu Yourong's remark was made nonchalantly, yet it stirred up a clamor in the crowd.

She was right!

How could a hospital possibly cause a switched-at-birth incident?

Perhaps, someone switched the babies at birth on purpose.

Ye Zhuo's biological mother was a mistress with despicable means. Therefore, she was capable of even nastier actions.

If an outsider were in her place, the person would certainly be shocked by Mu Yourong's remark. However, the person standing before Mu Yourong was Ye Zhuo, after all. She was a mogul who used to stand at the peak of the world at one point.

Ye Zhuo lowered her gaze ever so slightly and looked at Mu Yourong casually. Then, she responded in an indifferent tone, "Since what Ms. Mu said is so plausible, I believe that there's certainly adequate evidence to prove that this incident is deliberate, right? The laws in this country are fair and righteous. The lawbreakers can't outrun the long arm of the law, so I shall respectfully wait for Ms. Mu to file a lawsuit against me with evidence!"

Mu Yourong narrowed her eyes. She felt panicked in her heart for no apparent reason as she looked at Ye Zhuo standing before her. This person was obviously Ye Zhuo, so why did she feel threatened? Could it be that she was not a worthy match for a deadbeat?

So, she calmed herself with great effort and then said, "It has already been 18 years since the incident. Even if there is evidence, it would have been swept under the rug by time. You're just shoving false arguments down my throat!"

Ye Zhuo smiled. "Without evidence, to put it nicely, you are basically speculating; in less pleasant words, you are making a false accusation! On a more serious note, there's an offense known as defamation in our country too!"

The strange feeling from before just grew more intense!

Mu Youroung could not allow herself to argue with Ye Zhuo anymore because only the weaker side could gain the crowd's attention and sympathy.

She had to do something to capture everyone's attention once again. Hence, Mu Yourong's eyes welled up with tears and she said with a sobbing voice, "You took my place in the family to live a good life for 18 years while I lived in a dark, damp basement with that despicable mother of yours. I lived a life not knowing if I'll get my next meal! Ye Zhuo, who do you think you are to stand here and criticize me!?"

Upon hearing that, Mrs. Mu's hands were trembling as she held Mu Yourong's hands.

They lived in a grand mansion over the years while her biological daughter was trapped in a basement

Was a basement appropriate for human beings to live in? She wished that she could choke Ye Zhuo to death right away.

Furthermore, the rest of the people looked at Mu Yourong sympathetically as well.

Ye Zhuo raised her gaze ever so slightly. "Both you and I are victims. I'm not criticizing you, but I'm only speaking the truth. Moreover, I said that I'm leaving this place at once and that my surname will be 'Ye' from now on. I don't have any connection to the Mu family anymore, and there's no need for you to hang on to this matter either!"

Mu Yourong replied with reddened eyes, "How am I hanging on to this matter, huh? Why do you have to be so provocative then? I'm only finding the incident to be a little suspicious! I know that you're unwilling to part with my family. You were acting like my parents' daughter for so many years, after all! I will treat you like my real sister from now on"

"Oh god! Brother Fifth! Your fiance is too kind! She still wants to forgive the fake daughter after all this!" Li Qiandong was moved beyond words, for he had never met a person as kind as Mu Yourong.
