Exclusive Love: Pampered by the Scheming Tycoon-Chapter 470 - 451 Old Sir Huo’s Attitude

Old Sir Huo turned his gaze back to Lin Banxia with some disbelief, his expression still tinged with doubt. "Mr. Mu, are you certain she is Mr. Cheng’s missing daughter?"

Mu Jiyang was about to speak when Chu Tingting suddenly rushed over, clutching one of his arms and urgently said, "Cousin, don’t believe this woman’s words so easily. I suspect the DNA test result she has is fabricated. You can’t trust that she is Aunt’s daughter."

Mu Jiyang responded with firm conviction, "She is my mother’s lost daughter. I believe her."

Lin Banxia looked gratefully at her older brother. His trust was the greatest source of strength for her at this moment.

Old Sir Huo’s brows furrowed even tighter, and Chu Tingting immediately stepped forward to persuade him. "Grandfather, no matter who she is, she and Yan Ting are done. I am now Yan Ting’s fiancée."

Old Sir Huo’s expression grew somber. He then turned to Lin Banxia and asked, "Do you and Yan Ting still have contact?"

"Yes!" Lin Banxia admitted in a low voice, then quickly explained, "Chairman, please don’t blame Huo Yanting. All the fault is mine—I violated the agreement we made earlier!"

Old Sir Huo’s expression was stern and unpleasant. His tone carried a severe edge. "Miss Lin, have you taken my words as mere empty talk?"

"I haven’t! I’ve always respected you!" Lin Banxia stiffened in fear and hastily replied.

"Hmph, what kind of act are you playing now? You’re Tingting’s cousin and Yan Ting’s ex-wife. If this gets out, it’ll surely become a laughingstock!" Old Sir Huo’s mood at this moment was very complex.

In truth, the reason he had insisted on driving Lin Banxia away earlier was simply because Huo Yanting and Chu Tingting had a longstanding engagement.

Breaking such a pledge is a serious matter; even if the engagement were to be annulled, the Huo Family would never be the party to breach the agreement.

But with things in such chaos, Old Sir Huo was at a loss about how to handle the situation. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

"Grandfather, you must stand up for me. Yan Ting and I have had a longstanding engagement; he cannot be with another woman." At this point, Chu Tingting could only pin all her hopes on Old Sir Huo.

Mu Jiyang frowned and said in a deep voice, "Tingting, it’s time to face reality. Banxia and the Huo Family’s eldest son have already had a marriage. If you were to marry him, it would surely draw accusations of ethical impropriety."

Mu Jiyang’s words precisely mirrored Old Sir Huo’s concerns.

Indeed, cousins marrying the same man—a situation like this—inherently defied moral and ethical norms.

"What does this have to do with me? I’m innocent! How was I supposed to know she would turn out to be Aunt’s daughter?" Chu Tingting felt utterly wronged and deeply aggrieved.

Old Sir Huo spoke in a calm yet heavy voice, "We’ll deal with this matter when Yan Ting returns."

"Grandfather! Grandfather! You absolutely must stand up for me!" Chu Tingting chased after him for two steps, but Old Sir Huo had already strode away.

In that instant, Chu Tingting felt a wave of despair, a kind of indescribable resentment.

She turned back and glared hatefully at Lin Banxia and Mu Jiyang. "Are you satisfied now? You’ve ruined my happiness—is this your way of exacting revenge? Lin Banxia, I truly hate you. Why don’t you just die? Why did you have to turn out to be Aunt’s daughter?"

Mu Jiyang quickly stepped in front of Lin Banxia, his face darkened as he said, "Tingting, weren’t you always concerned about Aunt’s lost daughter? Now that Banxia has been found, shouldn’t you be happy for Aunt?"
