Chapter 457 Snitching
The video call was quickly connected. Situ Mulan deliberately turned to the side so that Wilson's villa was in the background of the video.
As soon as the video call connected, the voice of Mrs. Wilson came through. She spoke French with a slight country accent—French can have accents, too.
Most people would need to listen very carefully to Mrs. Wilson's French, but Situ Mulan was already very familiar with the old lady, so she didn't need to react to understand that the old lady was saying, "Are you doing well over there? You haven't contacted me for so long, I thought you had forgotten that you still had your grandma."
One reason why Situ Mulan was close to the old lady was that she could understand the old lady's strange pronunciation, which made the old lady feel that she was very considerate and that they got along well.
What the old lady didn't know was that, in order to please her, the Situ family had made her listen to the old lady's pronunciation countless times, like listening to her own ears, from the very first time she met her.
Situ Mulan forced a smile and said, "Grandma, how could I forget you... I, I just..."
She choked up halfway through her sentence and covered her mouth with her hand.
Because of her emotional outburst, the hand holding the phone trembled twice, and the camera lens was clearly pointed out of the car, onto Wilson's villa.
"What's wrong? My precious little Mulan... Don't cry, Grandma's heart is broken."
The old lady truly loved Situ Mulan. As she grew older, she longed for grandchildren to play around her. Unfortunately, she had few children. Wilson only had one daughter, whose whereabouts and fate were still unknown. Therefore, she had long regarded Situ Mulan as her own granddaughter.
So when she saw Situ Mulan looking so aggrieved, she immediately became anxious.
Then, the old lady saw the location displayed on the phone screen—Wilson's residence in Kyoto, China.
Although the old lady had never been here before, she couldn't possibly be unfamiliar with what her son's place looked like. So, after a moment's thought, she frowned and asked, "Sweetie, tell Grandma quickly, did your father bully you? He has a bad temper. He gives you the cold shoulder even when I'm around, let alone when I'm not. Don't cry, I'll call him right now and settle the score with him!"
"No no."
Situ Mulan looked terrified and quickly said, "My godfather didn't treat me badly. It's my fault. I accidentally... ruined my godfather's reputation and made him questioned by the outside world. It's all my fault."
The old lady hadn't heard of this before and asked in confusion, "What happened? What do you mean by 'damage to reputation'?"
Situ Mulan talked about the AI mechanical design competition, half crying and half talking, but she didn't mention that she was supporting a designer. In the end, the designer revealed the truth.
She only said that she was framed during the awards ceremony, and people online believed what the person who framed her said, and even claimed that she had a man backing her up.
They said she had an ambiguous relationship with that man.
And that man was Wilson.
Situ Mulan said with a guilty look, "If I hadn't caused all that trouble, my godfather wouldn't have been mistaken for that kind of person. I wouldn't have gone to apologize and ended up being... kicked out by my godfather."
"What?!" The old lady raised her voice and said, "This is clearly not your fault, and you have already apologized, yet he still kicked you out?"
Situ Mulan said with a look of suppressed resentment, "But my godfather is innocent. He's such a famous celebrity, yet I've ruined his reputation..."
"How much is reputation worth? Men are different from women. A little gossip actually enhances their value, so you don't need to take it to heart. As for you, since so many people misunderstand you, wait for me to return to China. I will throw a grand banquet for you here."
"banquet?"
Situ Mulan's heart was pounding with excitement, but she forced herself to remain calm and asked with a bewildered expression, "What banquet?"
The old lady laughed and said, "Of course! It's a banquet to publicly introduce you as my goddaughter. You're back in China now, aren't you? Grandma doesn't want those people back home looking down on us. The Wilson family isn't something we can just talk about like that. So, darling, don't be sad. Grandma will buy a plane ticket tomorrow and throw you a grand introduction banquet when I get back. I'll also let my son officially acknowledge you in front of everyone. Let's see if he'll still kick his daughter out of the house then!"
Situ Mulan tried hard to suppress the corners of her mouth from turning up, and said through sobs, "Isn't this a bad thing? I called you just to tell you that I missed you... You came all the way back because of this call, and I feel like I'm tattled on you."
The old lady sighed and said, "You're such a sensible child. You don't even tell your grandma when you're wronged. Luckily, I know what kind of person you are. You wouldn't tell me these things unless you were extremely wronged... Don't worry, I'll book the plane tickets right away. Remember not to tell your godfather. You can come pick me up when the time comes."
"You really want to come?"
"Would I lie to you...?"
Situ Mulan secretly pinched her thigh hard, her eyes immediately reddening. She looked deeply moved and said, "Grandma, you're so good to me..."
"Silly child, if I don't treat you well, who else will I treat well? You're my only precious granddaughter. Alright, hurry home, I'm preparing my things to come back as soon as possible."
"Thank you, Grandma. Please remember to let me know when you've booked your flight so I can wait for you at the airport!"
"Okay, I'll let you know as soon as I've bought it."
After hanging up the phone, Situ Mulan's innocence and childishness vanished, replaced by a shrewd, triumphant look.
Some time ago, she was driven crazy by the ridicule from socialites and wealthy women in the industry, but once Mrs. Wilson gives her a formal welcome banquet in China, no one in the industry will dare to laugh at her anymore.
Once she has washed away the humiliation she has suffered during this period, she will make sure to get back everything He Suye owes her, one by one!
Like those ants whose families have been destroyed, He Suye will die without a burial place if she just moves a finger!
The thought of He Suye kneeling before her, begging for mercy, made Situ Mulan's lips curl into a smile.
She glanced greedily at Wilson's villa, thinking that in a few days she would be able to move in openly and legitimately.
As for that butler Ned who kicked her out, she'll definitely teach him a lesson!
Situ Mulan stepped on the gas, and the sports car sped out of the villa area.
Inside the villa, Wilson looked at the paternity test results in his hand, already having already planned out his future for Su Ye.
Once he acknowledges her, he will give her the very best of everything!
No one can bully her!
"Sir," Assistant Fu asked, "I suddenly remembered, should we inform the old lady about this?"
"Let's not talk about it yet. If my mom finds out, she might come looking for her, which could scare her. Let's wait until I've confirmed everything before telling her. And don't tell anyone else yet."
"Yes," Assistant Fu replied, inwardly thinking: You didn't tell me who that person was, how am I supposed to tell anyone?
