Stealing Your Heart (Lin Xinyan) novel Chapter 828

Grandma Su took quite some time to think about it but was unable to remember what she wanted to say. Su Zhan, on the other hand, seemed to have picked himself up as he took a shower and put on some fresh clean clothes. Exhaustion was written all over his face, but there was a storm going on in his head, allowing him no sleep. So he decided to go to the law firm.

“Mr. Su, someone’s waiting for you in the reception room,” said the receptionist.

“Okay.” Su Zhan nodded in response.

In the reception room was the elderly woman that retracted her lawsuit after hiring him for a lawsuit.

“Anything I can help you with?” Su Zhan asked with a bland expression.

The woman stood up. “Thank you for the help last time, I’m here to express my gratitude.” She said as she placed the gift she brought on the table.

However, Su Zhan pushed the gift back towards her. “I can’t accept this. I didn’t do much after all.”

“It’s nothing extravagant, just a good aged wild ginseng. Please keep it, Mr. Su,” the woman said and pushed it back to Su Zhan.

Not wanting to refuse any further, Su Zhan took the gift and placed it under the table, showing that he accepted the gift. Then, he sat down. “Can I know whether there’s anything else you need help with?”

“No.” She shook her head. “You were the only one that would accept my request last time. Even though I ended up retracting it, I am happy that my daughter can rest in peace now.”

“What happened?” Su Zhan asked.

The woman smiled, “You didn’t watch the news, did you?”

Su Zhan shook his head so she continued, “That couple died in an accident yesterday.”

“Oh?” Su Zhan was surprised.

“Yes, they reaped what they sowed,” she replied. “I heard the mistress couldn’t get pregnant after marrying into the family. Even if she did, she’d lose it soon after. I lost my grandchild because of the Lu family, they deserve it.” The woman’s voice sounded slightly hoarse.

Su Zhan lowered his gaze at the mention of a child. “How did the accident happen?” He redirected the conversation.

“The Lu family’s a prominent family. I doubt they’ll accept not having an heir. The mistress got into a huge argument with them like what happened with my daughter. The couple was on their way to file a divorce before passing away.” The woman was gratified by their death.

It was justice for her and her daughter.

“My daughter and her child were both so young… “ Her eyes started to turn red before she realized she was talking too much. “Oh, I’m so sorry for taking so much of your time,” the woman said as she stood up.

“It’s okay,” Su Zhan replied.

“I’ll leave you be now. You’re a busy man after all. Things would definitely turn out great for a kind man like you.” She smiled.
