Chapter 1373 - 1374: Regret
Mrs. An insisted that it was Old Lady Yu who had administered the poison.
Without any hesitation, she then recounted to Gu Ya and Su Yunjin the process of her visit to Old Lady Yu. "Third son, third daughter-in-law, this packet of powder was given to me by Old Lady Yu. I simply wanted the third daughter-in-law to give birth to a granddaughter, I never thought of giving her a miscarriage-inducing drug."
Mrs. An seemed suddenly awakened.
Filled with regret, she looked at Su Yunjin and apologized.
"Third daughter-in-law, please forgive me. I truly realize my mistake, I was wrong this time. I shouldn’t have been so obstinate, nor should I have gone to Old Lady Yu behind your and the third son’s backs."
It was a close call.
She had nearly harmed her own grandson.
A wave of fear washed over Mrs. An.
Followed by even more profound regret.
Su Yunjin watched Mrs. An coldly, remaining silent. Regardless of whether the drug was given to her deliberately by Mrs. An, she would not easily forgive this incident.
Mrs. An too was filled with regret. Before, Mrs. An might have dreamt of the third daughter-in-law’s child being born and becoming a Princely Heir’s wife, bringing glory to the Gu Family. But now, all that was left for Mrs. An was self-reproach, her own selfish desires having nearly harmed the child.
"Foolish, so foolish. You truly are muddleheaded," Gu Chengxiang said with a mix of frustration and disappointment, shaking all over. He and Mrs. An had been husband and wife for decades; he believed Mrs. An when she said it was Old Lady Yu who did the poisoning. But even if it had been Old Lady Yu, Mrs. An had indeed gone too far this time.
