As her illness grew more severe,
she felt her life hanging by a thread, so she transferred all the shops, land, and manors mentioned in her dowry to Huo Yunjie.
The private savings her original parents had left for her in the dowry, including the profits accumulated from the shops over the years which amounted to tens of thousands of silver coins, had all been swindled by Huo Yuanjie.
Once all her money and property had been given to Huo Yuanjie, he began to treat her coldly and distantly.
He even insinuated that she, a divorced wife clinging to the Huo Family without a legitimate status, had no right to be his mother.
She had never expected this, and even in her naivety, she realized that Huo Yuanjie's filial piety had been a facade—it was nothing but an act of treachery.
She couldn't understand why her always kind-hearted mother-in-law had changed so drastically, or why her carefully nurtured son would behave like this.
