Chapter 1074 Scheming Against One's Own Daughter
"Keep an eye on things. How's Xiao Si doing?"
"He's not really in any danger, he just looks like he's gone mad. His dad only knows about the company and hasn't visited him much. His wife, on the other hand, went to see him a couple of days ago, but she brought another man with her. She seems to want a divorce or something. He seems to know about it and got really angry."
Stanton told Bo Qing everything he knew, and he couldn't help but sigh at how cheap human relationships really are. One second you might be family, loving each other to death, but the next second, there will be other people by your side.
"Hmm, keep an eye on it. I suspect this is all a staged performance by Xiao Si."
Although Bo Qing doesn't have any evidence yet, he feels that this is the most likely explanation based on all the factors considered.
After a brief chat with Bo Qing, Ston finally asked, "Boss, based on the timing, is your Gu worm about to activate?"
"Hmm." The man on the other end of the phone sounded unconcerned about the matter, his tone nonchalant.
"Boss! Why aren't you worried at all? This is no small matter! You happen to be in the US, right? You sent some antidote abroad before, why don't you ask them if they have any left? Otherwise... you..."
Stan didn't know what to say. His boss was never one to share his thoughts with others, and Stan didn't know what his boss was planning.
“I know what I’m doing,” Bo Qing said.
"What kind of sense do you have? This is something you can't possibly overcome. You can imagine how worried your sister-in-law must be. Do you really want her to worry? Boss, you're not suffering from a Gu worm attack, and you're deliberately running away to the US to avoid your sister-in-law, are you?"
No, there isn't!
He went to Country M on a business trip; he had serious business to attend to.
"I've calculated the time, and it seems there really isn't much time left. Anyway, boss, you should make plans early." Ston had taken the medication last time, so it wouldn't take effect until next time, which would give him a lot of time.
Xia Zhengyi is simply a menace. He harmed people while he was alive, and even after he's dead, he still can't let others live in peace.
"Okay, keep an eye on things in Los Angeles."
"No problem, boss, you can rest assured that you've left things here to me!"
Stanton is now in charge of things here. Besides keeping an eye on Xiao Si, he is also keeping an eye on the Bo family.
Because of Bo Sinian's affair, Madam Bo's hair has turned mostly white. And judging from Madam Bo's tone, could she really be going to harm her daughter for the sake of her good-for-nothing son who is about to die?
Stanton felt it was wrong; no normal person with a sound mind would do such a thing.
What era are we living in? Surely no one still favors sons over daughters? Besides, compared to Bo Sinian, he's a useless good-for-nothing. Bo Siyu, on the other hand, works diligently to support herself and is quite good to Madam Bo and Bo Sinian. She's a normal person.
With only three days to spare, Mrs. Bo couldn't sleep at all, she really had no other choice.
Although they were given three days, the loan sharks continued to put pressure on Mrs. Bo. They even took Bo Siyu's photo and sold her for a good price.
After all, Bo Siyu is decent-looking and lives a clean life; she doesn't even have a boyfriend.
With a little dressing up, she can transform into a lively young woman. Many people love this dish, and quite a few are willing to spend money on it.
Therefore, they wanted to put pressure on Madam Bo to personally deliver Bo Siyu to them.
Sure enough, after three days of their constant harassment, Madam Bo finally made a phone call to them.
"What you said, does it still count?"
The loan shark nodded: "Of course, we always keep our word."
"You said you wouldn't hurt Siyu and would release her soon, is that true?" Madam Bo asked repeatedly to confirm.
"Of course, we'll let Bo Siyu go back once she pays back your son's money. She might even bring you a large sum of money back then. We know plenty of rich people."
"Alright, let's do it your way. I'll find a way to get Siyu back tomorrow, and you can come and pick her up then."
"Mrs. Bo is indeed straightforward and has a broad perspective."
Madam Bo was also heartbroken. No one would want to hand over their daughter, but she had no other choice.
Moreover, this wouldn't kill Bo Siyu. If she were still young and capable, she would be willing to go herself. It's just a pity that she's too old, and no one wants her anymore.
It should be easy for Siyu to pay back the money. She might even earn more and make back Si Nian's medical expenses.
Then they won't have to work so hard anymore, and Siyu will be able to live a good life.
Mrs. Bo brainwashed herself, thinking that this way, apart from feeling sorry for Siyu, everything else would be fine. All Siyu had to do was make sacrifices, and so many people and things would benefit. Why not do it?
Today is Bo Siyu's birthday. Bo Siyu has been staying at the police station for a while and has not dared to go out. She is worried and afraid every day.
Her mother called Bo Siyu early this morning: "Siyu, it's your birthday today. Come home for dinner tonight."
Bo Siyu said, "I don't have time, I'm not coming back."
"But Mom went to the supermarket early this morning and bought a lot of things you like to eat. You like seafood, so Mom also bought you king crab and baby lobster." Mrs. Bo's voice came from the phone.
Bo Siyu does indeed enjoy seafood. She didn't realize it when she could eat it freely at the Bo family home, but after the Bo Group collapsed, she discovered that the things she used to be able to eat so easily were now completely unavailable to her.
With such a low monthly salary, how could she possibly afford to eat king crab that costs several thousand?
"Mom, where did you get the money to buy these?"
"It's your birthday, and even if Mom has to sell everything she owns, she'll make sure you get the best food."
"No need, just return all of these things. I don't want to eat them. Keep the money for my brother." Bo Siyu thought for a moment, but still refused.
These are all too expensive. Instead of buying these things and eating them up in a few bites, it's better to spend the money wisely.
At this time, Bo Siyu was unaware of Madam Bo's scheme. She simply thought that Madam Bo still had some feelings for her, after all, she was also her biological daughter.
"Siyu, this is a little something from Mom. Of course, you should eat something nice for your birthday. Tell Mom if there's anything else you want to eat, and Mom will make it for you. I was wrong a while ago. I shouldn't have pressured you like that. Come home first and celebrate your birthday with Mom, okay?"
Hearing Mrs. Bo's tone, Bo Siyu felt deeply moved.
