Chapter 112: Unable to Retrieve What Belongs to Oneself
Lin Banxia’s expression was one of shock; she hadn’t expected to suddenly be burdened with so many accusations.
Cheng Rouyin pointed at her face and continued berating her: "You want your mother’s box back? Fine, but only if you promise to stay far away from Mr. Huo. Get as far away as you can. Otherwise, don’t even dream of getting that box back."
Lin Banxia was livid upon hearing these words; she felt an overwhelming urge to slap her.
Had this mother and daughter duo gotten so used to bullying her that they had become utterly unreasonable and domineering?
"That’s something my mom left for me. You have no right to take it. Give it back to me now!" Lin Banxia said firmly, her attitude unbending.
Cheng Rouyin, however, crossed her arms in front of her chest, her expression indifferent: "If you don’t agree to my terms, I’m not giving it back."
"If you won’t give it back, I’ll go find my dad. In this household, he’s still the one in charge." Lin Banxia finished speaking and turned to leave without looking back.
Cheng Rouyin, as expected, was immediately threatened by her words. She rushed forward, grabbed Lin Banxia’s arm, and yanked her violently backward: "Lin Banxia, you dare to use your dad to threaten me? Let me tell you something—your dad won’t do anything to me, even if he finds out about this!"
"Is that so? Well then, why don’t we test that theory?" Lin Banxia threw off her hand angrily.
Upon hearing Lin Banxia’s determination, Cheng Rouyin abruptly changed her approach: "Bring me one million, and I’ll return the box to you."
Lin Banxia froze on the spot, her expression stiffened. She was furious and sneered, "One million? You might as well just try robbing someone."
