Marriage Rights: Billionaire's Forgotten Wife

"Mo Lihua what are you doing!" Piore jumped in to stop her by grabbing the small knife from her hands. He then pushed her back to sit on the nearest vacant chair.

Piore threw the small knife away as he inspected the stab wounds that she created holes that showed the blood staining her leggings. 'How deep did she stab herself!' Piore thought in worry.

While Piore was worried, the other laughed to Mo Lihua's action, specially Zuri and her son Aaron.

"Haha! She is crazy!" Aaron laughed out. Who was stupid enough to hurt or punish herself? He did not even get why she did it in the first place! "Do you want to please my mother? You need to do more than that!"

Zuri nodded in agreement with an amused smile on her face. Crossing her arms over her c.h.e.s.t, "That is a shocking way of showing that you are sorry. I will still need to see some more sincerity from you so before I can forgive you." She said at Mo Lihua with a smirk.

Zuri was assuming that the reason why made a drastic move to apologize because Mo Lihua was aware that the small knives were laced with an aphrodisiac. 'I will still not give you the antidote unless you begged with your head on the ground!'

"At least you know some reason. If you want me to forgive you, you-"

"Haha! You are tickling me!" Zuri words were halted when Mo Lihua suddenly laughed again. "Stop, fussing over some small wounds! That won't kill me! Go behind me and be a good bodyguard." Mo Lihua said to Piore who was checking her wounds and that seems to tickle her.

Piore released a deep breath. "I know you are sick in the head, but I would have never thought that you could hurt yourself like this." He hissed under his breath to make sure no one else is hearing them before giving her glare.

Mo Lihua smiles and kicks his kneed with her unwounded leg. "Go now. Be a good boy, and you will be rewarded later."

Piore gritted his teeth, as he reluctantly agreed to do what Mo Lihua wanted. 'At least the wounds are not too deep. I am more concerned with the possibility of toxin from the knives.' He thought to himself as he stood behind her with full alert.

He was good with knife play too. Thus, when he was younger, Piore was able to encounter Zuri on the training grounds. Therefore he was aware that the woman socked her knives with different poisons or other toxins.

Mostly does not have a smell or has rare to find antidotes. So if ever, the small knife that wounded Mo Lihua was one of those special ones from Zuri, where in the world could he get a cure?

'Ah, lets torture old Zuri? Or Aaron?' Piore liked the idea, but did not voice out his concerns and just waited how a thing goes. After all, he was not the only one who was willing to help her.

Seeing their interaction, Zuri was furious. "Mo Lihua! You are trying to look for trouble!" Zuri shouted in contempt.

Mo Lihua looked at Zuri with a raised brow and a smirk on her face, "Huh? You are still here Ninth Aunt?" She asked blatantly stating that what Zuri had said earlier was not heard or was just ignored.

"What the hell are you talking about?! You just stabbed yourself because you want to apologize to my mother, right?!" Aaron snapped with annoyance. He wanted to catch her small neck since earlier, and the more Mo Lihua acted against their plans, the more his patience was running thin.

"Huh? Did I ever say that?" Mo Lihua asked. "I was trying to apologize because of something else. Fourth Uncle. I also remember speaking to you and not to them, right?" She asked in confusion.

"Yes, you were speaking to me. But, you said you wanted to apologize…" Marco replied in confusion, just like the confusion the rest were feeling. "Never mind that, do you want to have your wounds treated first?"

Mo Lihua grinned, "No need Fourth Uncle. It would be hard to make other people believe that I was the victim if the wounds are treated. Don't you think so?" She said.

"Victim? You did that to yourself! How could you be called a victim?!" Aaron replied, furiously. 'What is she up to now?'

"I am a victim. Can't you see? I was supposed to be with my husband on our honeymoon, but was nowhere, three hours away from him. My legs are bleeding, and I am poisoned. My family members were also trying to extort money from me. So what do you think I am? A victim!" Mo Lihua asked seriously.

"Mo Lihua! We are not trying to extort you! How could you say that when we care about your well being?!" Cole stated with fake hurt.

With a deep frown on his face, "My niece, I do not know who gave you such an idea. You know that even before the Selection started, there were already innocent people that were hurt, and I guarantee that there will be more. We are here to discuss fair cooperation to keep you safe, but you seem to be uninterested!" Marco exclaimed, losing his composure.

"I will never cooperate with any of you." Mo Lihua declared with an indifferent look on her face. She was sitting on the chair, compared to the others that were already standing.

However, the aura around Mo Lihua gave them the impression that she was in control. She was giving the air of authority that they could not ignore.

'How could this be?' Cole asked himself, before his decision to make Mo Lihua do what they want, by using physical force finalized.

"You think you can just disrespect us like this?" Cole asked with an evil grin.

Mo Lihua grins back, "You don't deserve my respect." She then looked at her hand and started, tapping it with a finger.

"What are you up to now? Enough playing games!" Marco also lost his patience. He thought she was like their father that acted mad but still easy to please. The old boss was the type that only does what he wants, and as long as it is entertaining, everything would be fine.

However, Mo Lihua was acting strange to distract them! Her words or actions were all nonsense!

"Huh? Can't you see the phone that I am holding?" Mo Lihua asked with disappointment, "You know I was tapping the virtual keyboard of the phone on my hand. It is the type of phone that could only be seen by smart people. Since you cannot see the phone Fourth Uncle, you might not be smart enough."

"Nonsense!" Marco faced turned black with annoyance. 'Who is she kidding?! She was not holding anything!'

"Cousin, have you taken your medicine? You might need it!" Marian commented, while Francisca just smiled amusedly with the turn of events.

"Oh? Do you think I am lying? Well, we can bet on it! If you won, I would do whatever you want!" Mo Lihua offered.

Marco smirked, "Haha! Be careful on the bet that you want to do my niece. It will be you against all us after all! However, I will play your silly game."

"Great! I just sent a message to the police using my virtual phone. Let us give them maximum of five minutes. If they did not arrive, then you won the bet!"
