The Mafia’s Crybaby Wife

g.”

“Mom…” Lu An’an panicked.
She couldn’t come clean.

“If you won’t tell me, I’m giving up on treatment.
I’m the patient, so I do have the right, don’t I?” Li Lihua’s tone got stern.
The more Lu An’an tried to stall, the more suspicious it was.

And that was the final straw.
“I got married.”

Confusion flashed across Li Lihua’s face, and she couldn’t draw a connection between that and the money.
Still, she was frustrated.
“You got married? This young?”

“I got married because Gu Anning didn’t want to marry her fiancé.” Lu An’an took a deep breath.
“So I took her place instead.
And as part of the conditions of the marriage, I got the money for your hospital bills.”

Li Lihua’s heart sank.
She couldn’t believe what she had just heard.
What a failure she was, letting her daughter marry a man she didn’t love only to afford her hospital treatment!

Yet, Lu An’an didn’t notice the shift in her emotions, and she continued, “I know it sounds absurd, but he’s a great husband to me.
After all this time together, we realize we have feelings for each…”

“Get a divorce.” It was a rash decision made for the sake of her illness.
How could Li Lihua even trust if Lu An’an was telling the truth?

Her take on that matter left Lu An’an stunned.
She almost yelled, “Mom, we do love each other.
You’re only breaking us apart!”

“Breaking you apart?” Li Lihua squeezed her eyes shut.
“Nothing’s right from the beginning of your marriage, and it’s not too late to start over.
Don’t make this harder for me, An’an.”
