The Divine Physician's Overbearing Wife Chapter 1049

Chapter 1049: Leaving the Beast Forest IV

“This… What should we do? Lord Mu is dead, should we go back and report it?”

“Report what? We have failed to protect Lord Mu. The marquis loves Lady Yuan so much, for sure we will pay with our lives! So, we better quickly run away. Managing to escape for one day more is an additional day to stay alive! Once we go back, we will have no way of coming back out again!”

“Ever since Lady Yuan has entered the manor, all the loyal ministers in the marquis’ manor have been sentenced to death due to slander. Even the marchioness has died just because she had given Lady Yuan a slap. Do you think we still have any reason to stay in this kind of place?”

Everyone looked at each other and came to a conclusion in their hearts. They left in a rush without being bothered about Mu Yu.

***

Marquis City.

In Marquis Zheng’s Manor, a young butler rushed in with his forehead covered in sweat and eyes darting around in anxiousness.

“Lady Yuan, Lady Yuan! This is bad. Something has happened to Lord Mu Yu!”

In the eastern courtyard.

Lady Yuan was lounging on her side, with the warm sun shining on her body. Two servants holding fans stood on each of her sides, gently fanning her.

When she heard the commotion coming from nearby, Lady Yuan looked up and saw the little butler running in, causing her to frown.

Her personal servant immediately saw that she was annoyed so, she stood up and shouted, “Can’t you see that the lady is resting? How huge is that matter that you are kicking up such a fuss?”

The little butler was panting and covered in sweat. “Lady Yuan, Lord Mu has passed away!”

Lady Yuan was holding a cup of water that a servant had brought to her. Hearing that after taking a sip from the cup, her hand trembled from shock, causing the cup to slip and fall to the floor.

Her face paled, her eyes contained surprise and sorrow. Her body swayed and it was a good thing that the servant behind her had caught her. It was only then that she had managed to stabilize her body.

“You… What did you say just now?”

“Lady Yuan, Lord Mu was hurt in the beast forest!”

Lady Yuan’s face turned white. She lightly rubbed her forehead, shaking her head in disbelief.

“No. I don’t believe it. How could Elder Brother be dead? Absolutely impossible. You are all lying to me. It must be!”

Her face was covered in tears.

The servants held her body up, afraid that she would not be able to take it and collapse.

“Madam, Lord Mu has disappeared in the beast forest some time back. The marquis sent men to look for him, but they ended up bringing back a body… my Lady… Do you want to take a last look?”

Lady Yuan closed her eyes in agony, her body swaying as if she would fall any moment. “There is no need for that. I do not wish to take a look. All of you should just leave. I want to rest properly for a bit.”

Obeying her order, the servants and little butler left.

Only Lady Yuan was left in the whole eastern courtyard.

After all the people had left, her tears vanished too. Her lips curled into a sneer.

“Dead. He’s finally dead!”

Hahaha!

‘Sir Ye, I have avenged you!’

Sunlight shone upon Lady Yuan’s beautiful face, yet her smile was desolate.

‘Sir Ye, I have betrayed you and given up on our relationship. Now, all I can do is to let those who have harmed you accompany you in hell! Mu Yu is finally dead and he died from his own doing! From now on, the only place I want to overturn would be Marquis Zheng’s Manor!

‘I will make him lose everything he has, betrayed by all and left behind by his loved ones!’

“Yuan’er!”

A familiar voice called out from nearby…

Lady Yuan put away all her anger and hatred. Her tears, once again, flowed down her face, making her look pitiful and seemingly bearing great pain.

“Marquis…”
