Grandma Lin.
The death that was orchestrated and pinned on her... but she wasn't the cause.
The forged documents.
The share transfers Shuyin had signed in prison.....
Madam Chen's expression hardened. "That won't happen."
"How...."
"Because Shuyin is GONE." Her mother stood, smoothing her suit. "I saw her face today. She's done with him. Done with all of it. She took his money and his property and she LEFT. That woman isn't coming back."
"But what if she does?" Yueling's voice was almost a whisper now. "What if she starts asking questions about Grandma Lin's death? What if she looks into the medical records? What if...."
"Then we use THIS." Her mother tapped the folder with one perfectly manicured nail. "The infertility diagnosis. The surrogate story. It muddies the waters. Makes her look vindictive. Makes anything she says sound like a jealous woman lashing out."
"That won't be enough..."
