Mama's Princess is Daddy's Beloved

Chapter 1197 Auspicious morning.

"Ms. Zhang early in the morning, I received a court notice. Glamour World has accepted the lawsuit and wants to see us in court." The girl said and Zhang Xiaotong's expression turned cold at her words.

Although no words came from her immediately, on the other side of the call, the victim girl could feel the anxiousness racing up her nerves. "Ms. Zhang, I am really scared. What should we do now? Although I haven't done anything to give away our plans, what if what you suggested last night is correct? And have they truly gotten hints on us? Will you not help me treat my face then?"

She said and anxiousness laced with extreme desperation could be heard in her tone. It felt like her life was dependent on that one treatment. And she wasn't wrong to think like that. After all, which girl wouldn't care for her face? She cares about it a lot. That's why the moment she received the court letter and felt that something might go wrong, she didn't care about the time and reached out to Zhang Xiaotong to make sure she doesn't become a scapegoat for everything.

While the victim girl was over-anxious on the call, Zhang Xiaotong was on her own thoughts. When she was busy in her train of thoughts, suddenly she burst out in victorious laughter before exclaiming with utmost excitement, "Great! I have only been waiting for this to happen."

She said and the girl on the call could no longer understand. Getting confused at her words, she asked, "Really? I thought we were planning to tarnish Li Xue's career and name as much as possible. Weren't we?"

When Zhang Xiaotong has reached out to her for work, she clearly remembered that she has only mentioned tarnishing her name and career. And that was why when earlier today, she received the court letter, she freaked out, thinking that now that the plan might have the chance to get wrong, she wouldn't be getting the help in the expensive face surgery she requires for her face.

"Ruining her career and name was one of the methods that I thought to be suitable. But actually, what I intended was to make sure that the woman knows the place she holds. To let her know that no matter how she stands up, she won't ever be suitable to match the side of someone she has been planning to. And this court case would serve that purpose very well."

Zhang Xiaotong said, and her words like that were nothing, but a mystery that was not easy to understand.

So not understanding any of it, the victim girl asked, "Huh? What does that mean?"

And almost breaking through the trances, Zhang Xiaotong turned to respond to her. "There is no need for you to know the meaning. Keep yourself relieved thinking that I am not going to cancel the promise I have made to you. Instead, I would be helping you in getting your face done. So don't trigger me with your useless questions."

She said and as if already scared by her words, the victim girl accepted it without showing any dare.

"Ah, not at all, not at all. Why would I have a nosy nose to trigger you when I understood the gist of things very well? I was freaking out thinking that our plans might have been ruined. But now that there is nothing such, I have nothing to worry about as well. I will keep the phone first and go and get ready to give the call to Glamour World."

The victim girl said, thinking of her words very carefully before disconnecting the call. While Zhang Xiaotong just hummed to her.

Once the call was disconnected, Zhang Xiaotong's expression turned that of victory. "Li Xue isn't everything going in my favor. Now let me see how you are going to hold that smug face to me next time. This lawsuit won't be easy for you, believe me as I would never let it turn out to be easy for you. Although you are thinking that you would win the case, I would make sure that you have no one to represent your defense to the jury."

"This time you would understand how incapable you are to stand beside Brother FenFen. I will make you leave him willingly. And once you leave him, he would be all mine." She spoke, clapping her hands in appreciation internally.

Right at that moment, when she was celebrating in her own thoughts, a knock at the door took her off guard. Her expression turned that of horror at first but seeing the door still closed, she composed herself back to normal before calling with ease, "Yes, please come in. Who is it?"

And then the door was pushed open revealing the sight of Lillian. "Ms. Zhang, it's me. I just came to check if you are ready for the day and should I ask the chefs to start preparing the breakfast for you." The assistant asked and since the girl has gotten good news in the morning itself, she was fairly in good mood to agree to it straight away.

"Ah, Lillian, sure. Go for it. Ask the chefs to prepare something delicious. I didn't have my dinner last night properly. So, I would love to have my breakfast well." She said and the assistant felt a little odd at her words.

Although she nodded to her, her eyes stayed on her, trying to read her expressions. She hasn't joined her recently, but has known her for years. So, it wasn't hard for her to tell that the girl was up to something in secret that she had been hiding from everyone.

"What? Is there something on my face?" Zhang Xiaotong asked when she felt the stare of her assistant.

Lillian immediately shook her head, "Ah nothing, I felt that you are quite happy early in the morning. Is there any specific reason?"

Zhang Xiaotong smiled, shaking her head before removing the blanket and getting down. "It's nothing in particular. I just feel the morning is very auspicious today. Nothing else. Now, go and ask the chefs to prepare the breakfast for me while I go and get freshen up first." She said before walking straight to the washroom.

Lillian could simply not believe those easy words. That smile she caught earlier on the woman's face was simply not that simple. Her eyes caught sight of the phone that was kept on the side table with its backlight still on.
