The Widow "Misses" Her Villainous Late Husband

Chapter 25 – They couldn’t have her inheritance, and she couldn’t have them (4)

“Mom, can you really not tell why those people attending the banquet today and why they were nice to me? For Sinian’s inheritance, of course!” Yu Duo didn’t want to look at these handsome boys in this light, but there was no shortage of pretty girls from prominent families in City S. Why was it that all those handsome boys put their attention on her instead of any of the other prominent girl?

Love?

That’s a joke.

She was a widow. What else did she have to offer than her billion-dollar inheritance?

Sure, she was pretty, but not so uniquely pretty. They were showing fondness toward her for her billion-dollar inheritance.

She could appreciate handsome boys, but she couldn’t throw her intelligence out the window.

“What about the inheritance? The inheritance is part of the package. Simple, just do a prenuptial agreement before you remarry. What’s yours is still yours, nobody could take it from you.” Mrs. Yu sighed and said, “Mom just want you to come out of Fu Sinian’s shadow sooner rather than later is all.”

Fu Sinian, standing to one side, snickered. And, since when did he become Yu Duo’s shadow?

Anyone who didn’t know better would think he had been abusing her these last few years.

“Mom, don’t say that about Sinian. He had helped dad a lot in the last few years.”

“Yes, I admit that he had helped your father a lot. I am really appreciative of that, okay? But you are my daughter, I am not going to sit back and watch you be his widow for life!”

Yu Duo knew that she needed to end this conversation. There was no talking with her mother about this, not right now, “Okay, mom. We will talk about this later. It’s getting later. I am going to head out.”

“Oh, my child...”

Yu Duo got into her car and took off amidst her mother’s nagging.

On her way back, Yu Duo’s Weibo was drowned in friend’s requests. She opened up her inbox, and it was filled with the prominent young men that she had just met on the banquet.

Including Su Yang, Zhao Chen, Gu Mingzhe, et al.

So many handsome boys wanted to friend her; it would be silly of her to decline them.

Yu Duo accepted all of them and, instantly, all sorts of greetings came flooding in. Some even asked her out on 1:1 date next time.

Yu Duo responded to all of them, and declined them all for the time being. The days were still young; there was no rush.

After she had responded to everyone, she held her cellphone in her hand and let out a sigh.

How come she felt like she had just cast a net?

She felt sleazy.

No, wait... she was not the same as these men. She just wanted to ogle them; she never dreamed about having them. Unlike them, they were after her inheritance.

Come to think about it, they couldn’t have her inheritance, and she couldn’t have them.

Nobody was losing anything.

That sounded fair to me!

What so sleazy about that?

Not sleazy at all!

***

It was almost midnight when Yu Duo arrived back at the mansion. She didn’t want to wake Aunty Lian, so she went upstairs quietly, locked the bedroom door, and kicked her shoes off. She removed her necklace and earrings as she walked and casually tossed them onto her dresser before she took off her dress and stood in front of the full-length mirror almost fully naked.

Her side profile still shaped like an “S” with an inch of extra fat.

Yu Duo eyed herself in the mirror and couldn’t help but praise herself, “My body still looks great!”

This was the result of three-years worth of working out and watching her diet.

Albeit it was mostly for Fu Sinian, Yu Duo was happy about the outcome.
