AMRWFA -Chapter 299 The Future of Hua Yirou

Whether Hua Yirou herself was willing or not, her future seemed to be firmly trapped by Hua Mingjie.

Because it was simple: it wasn’t that she didn’t want a divorce—it was that…

【Sigh…】 Ruan Yaoyao sighed again. 【It’s not that Hua Yirou doesn’t want a divorce. She simply can’t. Because once she divorces, Hua Mingjie will take half of her assets.】

Hua Yirou: What?!

Half of her assets in a divorce?

How is that possible?!

Didn’t she sign a prenuptial agreement?

【Only later did Hua Yirou realize she had been tricked by Hua Mingjie. The so-called prenuptial agreement was never properly completed.】

【And the reason was… the “pretty boy” she introduced to her friend—the one responsible for handling prenuptial agreements—was the one who tampered with it.】

【Wait, this pretty boy is…】

Ruan Yaoyao froze when she saw the name. 【So this pretty boy is from my family?!】

She glanced at Xu Nannan.

Xu Nannan looked innocent: Mom, why are you looking at me?!

Soon she understood why, because she heard Ruan Yaoyao’s inner thoughts:

【Hah! So this unlucky friend is Nannan!】

Xu Nannan: “……”

Oh… so I’m involved too?

【Unlike Hua Mingjie, who only knows how to live off a woman and doesn’t even go to work, the guy Nannan introduced at least has a job.】

【But what Hua Yirou didn’t know was that the “friend of Hua Mingjie” she was introduced to was actually part of a scheme. He had long planned to marry into wealth, and expected prenups to be an issue for rich women—so he deliberately made connections with someone in that field.】

【What a coincidence. One wanted to freeload off a rich woman, and the other also wanted the same. They became accomplices—birds of a feather.】

Xu Nannan looked at Hua Yirou and thought: You really dragged me into a mess, sis!

Hua Yirou felt guilty: I just wanted to help a friend connect people… I didn’t expect this to backfire!

Liao Jingna looked between them and thought desperately: Look, I’m your real best friend! Outsiders will only hurt you!

【At the same time, Hua Mingjie introduced that man to Hua Yirou’s friend. That man, grateful for the connection, became even more loyal to Hua Mingjie.】

【So when Hua Mingjie later asked for help, he agreed without hesitation.】

【Meanwhile, Hua Yirou had no idea about any of this. She only believed that Hua Mingjie truly wasn’t after her money—that he was with her for love. Otherwise, why would he agree to a prenup?】

【Because of that, Hua Yirou even stopped her father from investigating, insisting she could handle it herself.】

【And then…】

Ruan Yaoyao suddenly understood. 【So that’s how it was. No wonder a simple prenuptial agreement could be messed up like this.】

【Turns out the real trap was here.】

【She thought she had signed one—but in reality, it was fake.】

【No wonder Hua Yirou couldn’t get divorced later. She had no choice but to stay with Hua Mingjie. She wasn’t as capable as her father, so she couldn’t handle major turmoil and could only barely hold on.】

【She went to work at the company every day, leaving early and coming back late.】

【Her daughter was left to the care of a nanny.】

【After working so hard, the company didn’t improve at all—in fact, it ran into even more problems. And worse, her daughter was growing up quickly… and in a worrying way.】

At first, Ruan Yaoyao didn’t understand what “worrying way” meant. Was the child just growing up too fast?

When she was busy, it was normal not to notice how quickly children grew. She remembered feeling the same when raising kids.

But back then…

She thought carefully: 【Oh! What was I doing back then?】

【I had a nanny taking care of the child, a nutritionist handling meals… I mostly just played with the kid when I was free.】

She did put effort into that “playing.”

She worried the nanny might mistreat the child behind her back, so the child even slept in her room. She didn’t mind sharing the bed with a caretaker.

When the child was awake, she didn’t mind the educator bringing the child around her, letting them play together.

In short, all the hard work was done by others—she was basically like a mascot, staying within the child’s sight and just making sure both of them were happy.

Xu Nannan realized for the first time that she had actually grown up like this?

No wonder all her memories were of her mother happily playing with her, never losing her temper.

So her mother really only “played” with her while others did everything else.

But she also knew—her mother truly loved her.

Even if others did the work, her mother paid close attention to everyone’s emotions. So they never felt like “replaceable tools”—they still knew they couldn’t replace a real mother.

Ruan Yaoyao was like that, but Hua Yirou was different. She had to work, so most of the child’s time was spent at home with the nanny.

And then the question arises: besides the nanny, who spent the most time with the child?

That’s right—Hua Mingjie.

【Hua Mingjie was very cunning. In front of Hua Yirou and the nanny, he never said anything strange to the child, so everyone let their guard down, thinking he couldn’t possibly harm his own daughter.】

【True, he wouldn’t physically harm or kill the child—but he could “teach” her. Quietly telling her that her mother didn’t like her, that her mother was a workaholic, unfeminine, and unattractive to men…】

【To others, he looked like he was just reading picture books to the child, but in reality, he was telling stories like Cinderella and Snow White—teaching her that love is the most important thing for a woman.】

【True love can overcome everything.】

【Including money, social norms, and even morality.】

【For example, he would subtly tell the child that the prince was forced to marry the princess, but his true love was someone else—and that a “good daughter” should help fulfill her father’s love. And her mother might actually be the evil stepmother in the story.】

Everyone present was shocked.

What was Hua Mingjie doing?!

Was he brainwashing his own daughter into being a love-obsessed woman?!

【The child frequently talking about princes and princesses didn’t raise suspicion—until later, when Hua Yirou discovered that Hua Mingjie actually had another family outside… and even a son?!】

【By then, Hua Yirou had already sent off her parents and finally risen to her feet, becoming a barely competent but stable company manager. She hired professional managers, paying heavily to keep the company from collapsing.】

【She planned to keep the company stable first, then educate her daughter to take over…】

【So she could finally rest.】
