Chapter 819 He manipulated Lucy's father and made him give in.
After Lucy's father saw the woman off, he entered the house and saw Zhou Chen sitting at his table eating breakfast. This sight immediately enraged Lucy's father.
This guy came to cause trouble early in the morning, and now he's openly sitting in his own home eating. What exactly does he want to do?
Just as Lucy's father was about to lose his temper, Zhou Chen took out his phone, dialed Lucy's number, and then turned on speakerphone so that Lucy could talk to her father.
"Dad, I already know what happened. My mother has only been dead for a little over a month, and you've already found a new woman. How can you face my mother?"
She died on the operating table so that our Fang family could continue its lineage. Do you have any conscience?
The only reason I brought Zhou Chen here today is to divide the family property. You can forget about taking my mother's share; I won't let you two, this pair of illicit lovers, get it for free.
I've made it clear beforehand that the purpose of dividing the inheritance isn't for myself, but for my young and immature sister. You gave birth to her and then abandoned her; how can you face her like that?
Upon hearing that Lucy wanted a share of the family fortune, Lucy's father immediately flew into a rage. He cursed, "You bastard, do you know what you're saying? You're actually eyeing my family fortune! Is this guy in front of you the one who's doing this?"
You're not even married yet, and you're already siding with outsiders! How can you do this to me?
Seeing Lucy's father pointing at him and cursing him, Zhou Chen didn't care at all. The angrier you are, the happier I am. No rush, we'll take things slowly.
“Dad, this matter has nothing to do with Zhou Chen. He is only here to negotiate with you on my authorization.”
I said from the beginning that this inheritance was meant to be a safeguard for my sister.
You are Mianmian's father. Since you gave birth to her, you have the responsibility to raise her.
It's a pity you just dumped it on me. With a morally corrupt father like you, I'm already starting to worry about my sister's future.
Your sister can't rely on you now, and she'll be even less able to rely on you in the future, because you're just an unreliable person.
"Dad, I can say this clearly: it's none of my business which woman you're with, and I won't stop you. But Mom's assets must belong to my sister."
Hearing Lucy say that she wouldn't stop him from seeing other women was good news for Lucy's father, but the thought of his daughter eyeing the family fortune still made him furious.
Lucy's father felt that he had wasted his time raising his daughter, who was now a complete ingrate. He was still alive and she was already scheming for the family fortune.
Just as Lucy's father was lost in thought, Lucy continued on the phone, "As Mianmian's older sister, I have to help her fight for what is rightfully hers."
After all, I'm not young anymore. By the time my younger sister grows up, I'll be almost retired, and I won't have any money to prepare a dowry for her.
If we can reach an agreement, then we can part ways amicably. If we can't, then we'll have no choice but to take legal action against you. That would be very awkward for both of us. Are you really sure you want to go down that path?
Lucy started threatening her father and even decided to take legal action, saying that they should either part ways amicably or have a complete falling out.
Unfortunately, this did not scare Lucy's father at all. Why should he be entitled to half of the money he worked so hard to earn?
"Hengheng, you unfilial daughter, I have really raised you for nothing. You want me to divide the family property? No way. If you want to make trouble, then make trouble. Let's see who loses face and let the neighbors see how filial you really are."
Lucy's father was not going to compromise. Seeing this, Zhou Chen picked up his phone and said to Lucy, "Lucy, it seems your father is very confident. Let me handle the rest. Don't worry, I won't hit him."
After exchanging a few more polite words with Lucy, Zhou Chen hung up the phone. He then looked at Lucy's father and said, "Don't think so badly of others. I have no intention of taking your family's property."
However, I will fight for Lucy's rightful interests. As Lucy's father, I don't want our relationship to become so strained.
Unfortunately, Lucy's father didn't appreciate Zhou Chen's words. Since they had already made the decision to fight for the family fortune, they shouldn't pretend to be kind.
Seeing Lucy's father's attitude, Zhou Chen decided not to give him any face since he didn't appreciate his kindness.
“Lucy is right. You are indeed a morally corrupt father. I believe I would not be surprised if anything happened to you, such as having an extramarital affair.”
This is CCTV footage I obtained near the square where you do your square dancing. It shows that you started having an affair with that woman three months ago, when your wife was pregnant.
My wife is pregnant, so it's understandable that she has desires, which is inconvenient. I'm facing the same situation now, and I'm really struggling to control myself for the sake of Lucy's baby.
It's just that you're already so old, yet you still go out and have an affair, which really surprised me.
I wonder if the judge will sentence you to leave with nothing if I present this surveillance footage as evidence in court.
After all, your wife died on the operating table giving birth to your child. Whether from an ethical or legal standpoint, that should garner some sympathy. Are you sure you want to sue us?
Zhou Chen asked with a smile on his face because Lucy's father looked very upset. His words about leaving with nothing had really hurt him, and he was worried about whether such an outcome would occur if the matter were to go to court.
Just as Lucy's father was lost in thought, Zhou Chen continued to threaten, "By the way, you had an affair during your marriage, and your wife died on the operating table. I wonder if there's some unknown conspiracy involved?"
I have every reason to suspect that this is a tactic you're using to help your mistress take your place. I'm wondering if you should call the police and have them investigate. I don't mean anything by it, I just have some suspicions.
Upon hearing this, Lucy's father immediately panicked, because some things cannot be said carelessly, as a single careless remark could be fatal.
Lucy's father believed that he had not used any underhanded tactics and that his daughter-in-law's childbirth was an accident.
However, some things are hard to explain. Although he is not afraid of investigation, if this gets out, his reputation will be completely ruined.
Even if one day the police prove that Lucy's father is innocent, the damage has already been done, and who will listen to his explanation then?
If my reputation is really ruined, then my original marriage partner probably won't stay with me anymore.
"Shut up! Some things can't be said casually. What exactly do you want?"
Lucy's father stared at Zhou Chen and asked, "This guy in front of me is really good at hiding things. He used to be an honest and upright doctor in front of me, but now he's baring his fangs at me."
Zhou Chen's laughter grew louder, and he continued, "Uncle, the auntie from earlier was called Luo Fang, right? Do you think I came to see you unprepared?"
I wonder if she knows you have no humanity left. You don't even want to raise your own daughter. Even tigers don't eat their cubs. Do you think she'll still be with you?
Zhou Chen plunged another knife into Lucy's father's chest. This was exactly what he was worried about. Of course, Lucy's father didn't want that woman to know his background.
"Zhou Chen, I underestimated you. You've got a good grasp of the situation. Every move you make is designed to force me to compromise. So, tell me, what exactly do you want?"
Lucy's father softened his tone, it seemed that Zhou Chen had finally gotten the upper hand, and now it was time to negotiate terms.
