Rebirth of the Cannon Fodder in the Entertainment Circle

Chapter 594: Republic Divorced Wife Cannon Fodder (8)

Indeed, although Luo Jun’s words infuriated Huo Mu beyond measure—she would have liked nothing better than to immediately throw Luo Jun out—she had no choice but to bear it.

She could only harden her face and instruct a maid beside her, “Go and fetch the marriage contract between the Fifth Young Master and Lady Luo.”

After that, she looked coldly at Luo Jun, “I would ask that Miss Luo speak cautiously; our Huo Mansion is not some lowly household that covets a daughter-in-law’s dowry.”

Though she wanted to keep Luo Ning, the main reason was to find the key and combination to the safe deposit box at the bank.

But she couldn’t deny that she was also somewhat reluctant to give up Luo Ning’s substantial dowry.

The Huo Family was now large in size and business, and as such, the expenses were considerable.

Quality in clothing and living had to be the best to reflect the status of the Commander Mansion.

Luo Ning’s dowry totaled two or three hundred thousand silver coins and included several well-located shops, which were now under the Huo Family’s operation. Huo Mu was unwilling to let them go.

But feeling reluctant was one thing, and being called out for it was another.

The Huo Family needed to maintain its dignity; they couldn’t possibly be seen as desiring their daughter-in-law’s dowry.

If she hesitated any longer, given Luo Jun’s shrewish nature, it was plausible she might take the issue to the President himself.

Her husband and the President were already at odds lately; this would undoubtedly be handing them a weapon against her.

Therefore, she could only suppress her anger and agree to dissolve the marriage at the government office now.
