Flash Marriage: The Billionaire Addicted to Her-Chapter 603

All this recent bad news was undoubtedly related to Ye Yuning.

And Old Mr. Xiao currently didn’t want to hear even half a word about anything concerning Ye Yuning.

Butler Zhong said, "But you must be made aware!"

Old Mr. Xiao fell silent. So, I don’t even have a choice in the matter now? That vixen... she’s truly a curse! Why is she still haunting us like a persistent ghost even after Xiao Linye divorced her? After the engagement with Xiao Shuo was called off, all ties with her should have been severed. How did things escalate to this point?

Old Mr. Xiao sighed. "Alright, tell me then."

For Butler Zhong to insist like this, the problem must be severe indeed. It’s something I can’t afford to ignore.

Butler Zhong said, "It’s about Seventh Young Master’s divorce from her. News of it has been leaked by someone."

Old Mr. Xiao’s already unhealthy complexion instantly turned grim. The entire hospital room felt as cold as an ice cellar.

He glared sharply at Butler Zhong. "Who leaked it?"

Who in all of Upper City would be so audacious? Who would dare to expose something like this?

Butler Zhong shook his head. "We don’t know who dared to do it yet, but it’s already been reposted over 20,000 times. With that many reposts, tracing the source quickly won’t be easy."

Old Mr. Xiao’s chest heaved.

The doctor had just repeatedly warned him not to get agitated, that he needed to remain completely calm. But how could he possibly stay calm now?

He took several deep breaths, but the suffocating pressure in his chest couldn’t be alleviated.

Butler Zhong wanted to offer a few words of comfort, but he knew that at a time like this, Old Mr. Xiao wouldn’t want to hear anything.

After a long moment, Old Mr. Xiao closed his eyes and said through clenched teeth, "Get Seventh Young Master over here immediately."

"Yes."

Butler Zhong nodded and turned to call Xiao Linye.

「Meanwhile」

Xiao Linye had just finished a call with Lai Shuo.

Lai Shuo had said that Ye Yuning was most likely no longer in Upper City, as there was no surveillance footage of her leaving the hotel. Therefore, it was highly probable she had been taken by someone. And since that person had deliberately taken Ye Yuning, she was almost certainly out of Upper City by now.

All analyses pointed to a grim outlook for Ye Yuning.

Xiao Linye’s expression was extremely grim. He dialed several more numbers, ordering them to broaden the search area.

No matter what, I have to find Ye Yuning’s whereabouts as quickly as possible.

Butler Zhong’s call finally managed to get through.

Xiao Linye, still needing to make more calls, answered it absently.

If it were like before, with my usual temper, I wouldn’t have answered any calls related to Old Mr. Xiao.

"Seventh Young Master, please come to the hospital quickly. Old Master Xiao wants to see you," Butler Zhong urged.

"What about?" Xiao Linye asked coldly.

Butler Zhong replied, "Your relationship with Miss Ye has been exposed. The internet is flooded with it—everyone is posting images of your divorce certificate."

Xiao Linye’s breathing hitched.

Seeing he wasn’t responding, Butler Zhong continued, "Old Master Xiao is furious and insists on seeing you."

"Then let him stew for now."

With that, Xiao Linye hung up.

He hadn’t expected his relationship with Ye Yuning to be suddenly exposed either. He currently had no intention of investigating it; he even thought the exposure wasn’t a big deal. Fundamentally, the main reason for his divorce from Ye Yuning wasn’t because she was the adopted daughter of the Ye Family. It was because of the child... But now, regarding the child, he probably needed to reassess the entire situation. Gui Xingli’s words had deeply affected and shaken him. People really shouldn’t make decisions when angry; your mind isn’t clear at all then. When he saw Ye Yuning was pregnant, his mind had gone completely numb, and he hadn’t thought things through at all. Now... he regretted it! Once he found her, he absolutely had to get to the bottom of this. If it was truly as Gui Xingli had said, then he would ensure that anyone who had harmed her would be torn limb from limb.

「Back at the hospital」

When Old Mr. Xiao learned that Xiao Linye not only wouldn’t come but had also hung up the phone, he was so furious he smashed the cup from his bedside table.

"That bastard! Is he really disregarding everything for that woman now?"

Butler Zhong remained silent.

Remembering Xiao Linye’s attitude on the phone, Butler Zhong really didn’t know what to say. He simply stood silently to one side.

Old Mr. Xiao raged, "Bastard! That utter bastard! She’s such an insignificant little thing; I truly don’t know what he finds so precious about her."

Seeing him so enraged, Butler Zhong worried he might make himself ill from anger and advised again, "Old Master, please try to calm down."

"How do you expect me to calm down? He doesn’t even care that something this major has happened! What is he trying to achieve? Does he really intend to be with that damned girl? What would become of the Xiao Family then?"

Since Xiao Linye was indifferent, Old Mr. Xiao deeply suspected his motives in this affair.
