The ancient war between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in a wealthy family

I held the anonymous letter in my hand. It was just a thin piece of paper, but it felt like a huge rock pressing on my chest.

The beautiful handwriting, exuding a chilling chill, spread across the palm of my hand.

Lose your social status forever...

These words, like a sharp knife, pierced my heart.

I admit, I was scared.

I have worked so hard for so long to gain a foothold in the Zhan family and in this circle. Is all my efforts going to be wasted because of this letter?

I paced back and forth in the room, and the softness of the carpet did not relieve my inner anxiety at all.

The high heels tapped on the floor, again and again, as if tapping on my nerves.

Zhan Yu hugged me from behind, his embrace was as warm as ever, with the power to soothe my heart.

I turned around and buried my face in his chest, feeling his strong heartbeat.

His chin rested on the top of my head, gently stroking my hair.

"What's wrong?" His voice was low and gentle, like a sedative, slowly calming the waves in my heart.

I didn't say anything, just handed him the letter.

After he finished reading it, his brows furrowed and a cold light flashed in his eyes, but it disappeared in an instant, replaced by endless tenderness and determination.

"Don't be afraid," he held my face and gently wiped the moisture from the corners of my eyes with his thumb, "no matter what decision you make, I support you." His eyes were like a bottomless lake, surrounding me and making me feel extremely safe.

His words were like a warm current that flowed into my heart.

Yes, I still have Zhan Yu and his unwavering support.

I took a deep breath and straightened my back. All the fear and hesitation seemed to disappear at this moment.

I raised my head and looked at Zhan Yu, with a determined smile on my lips.

"Thank you, Zhan Yu." I held his hand tightly, interlocking our fingers, and an unprecedented strength surged from the bottom of my heart.

I……

I decided to ignore the threats and make those hiding in the dark pay the price!

With Zhan Yu's support, I held a large-scale exposure party at the social club and invited celebrities from the entire social circle to attend.

My heart was beating incredibly fast as I waited for the truth to be revealed.

Under the spotlight, I held the microphone and looked around. I saw the face of Zhou Yuanfang's relative, which was covered with powder but could not hide her panic, the look of Mrs. Li pretending to be calm, the evasive gaze of reporter Wu, and the hypocritical smile of Wang, the person in charge of the charity project.

I took a deep breath and spoke slowly, revealing all the evidence to the public, including the anonymous letter and all the details of how they fabricated facts and slandered me, without missing a word.

Zhou Yuanfang's relative's face was pale and his lips were trembling, but he was unable to refute.

The lies she carefully wove were vulnerable in the face of the irrefutable evidence I provided.

Mrs. Li, the weather vane of this social circle, now slumped in her chair like a deflated ball. Her social status, which she was proud of, collapsed in the face of the truth.

Wu Xiaobao, the profit-seeking reporter, turned pale and sweat poured down his face. He trembled as he took out his cell phone, wanting to record this moment, but it was ruthlessly snatched away by the security guard.

The person in charge of Wang Charity Project, this hypocritical hypocrite, turned pale and said nothing.

There was an uproar at the scene, and everyone looked at them with contempt and disdain.

They used to be the most powerful people in this circle, but now they have become the rats crossing the street that everyone wants to beat.

I looked at them and felt no pleasure in my heart, only deep fatigue.

Zhan Yu walked onto the stage and held my hand. His eyes were firm and gentle, giving me strength.

I turned to look at him and gave him a reassuring smile.

At this time, my friend Sun walked up to me, patted my shoulder, and said meaningfully: "The good show has just begun..."

My friend Sun’s words were like a stone, causing ripples in the calm lake of my heart.

The fun has just begun?

What do you mean?

Before I had time to think about it, I was overwhelmed by the tide of congratulations and praise.

Those ladies who once treated me coldly and even took advantage of me when I was down now all had fawning smiles on their faces and spoke insincere words of praise.

I smiled slightly and responded one by one, but my heart was calm.

Zhan Yu's family also came over. Zhan's mother held my hand, her eyes slightly red, and choked up and said, "Child, we have wronged you and wronged you before. From now on, you are the real daughter-in-law of our Zhan family, and we all welcome you." I looked at her sincere eyes, and the last trace of grudge in my heart disappeared.

I shook her hand back and gave her a reassuring smile.

Zhan Yu stood beside me, holding my hand tightly, his eyes full of love and pride

After the celebration party, I returned to my room, feeling exhausted but unusually relaxed.

I took off my makeup, changed into comfortable pajamas, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, looked at the brilliant night view outside the window, and my heart was filled with emotion.

This storm is finally over.

I won, completely.

Not only did I preserve my reputation, but I also earned the respect of everyone and became a true leader in the social circle.

Just as I was immersed in the joy of victory, the phone on the bedside table vibrated.

I picked up my phone and saw an unread message.

It was an unfamiliar number, and the message was very simple, with only one sentence: "Ms. Bai, we sincerely invite you to attend the 'Glory Ceremony' to be held in Vienna next month. Please see the attachment for details." I clicked on the attachment, and it was an exquisite invitation letter with gold-plated words and a mysterious badge printed on it.

Vienna?

Glory Ceremony?

My mind was filled with doubts.

At this time, there was a knock on the door and Zhan Yu walked in. He looked at me with a hint of worry in his eyes, "What's wrong? You don't look well." I shook my head and handed him the phone, "Look..." He took the phone, frowned after reading the message, and after pondering for a moment, said, "I'll ask someone to check this "Glory Ceremony"..." Before he finished speaking, my phone vibrated again. Another message came from the same number.

I clicked on the message, and there were only a few words on it: "Don't try to investigate us..." I looked up suddenly and looked at Zhan Yu, a chill running from the soles of my feet to the top of my head...

Zhan Yu hugged me in his arms and said, "Don't be afraid, I'm here." His voice was low and firm, but it couldn't hide a hint of uneasiness.

I clutched his sleeve tightly, my fingertips turning white... Someone was watching us.
