Chapter 241 Fade Chen looked up and saw that the last orphanage was located at quite a secluded area. The stone road they were on lead to the orphanage, and there were basically no other buildings around it. The orphanage was a two-story building surrounded by a wall. A wooden sign was hung on the wall, and on the sign was written "Springlight Orphanage". The car and vans stopped at the gate of the orphanage. The staff members on the van got off and started transporting the items from the van into the orphanage. Fade and Quin Lin walked beside each other toward the orphanage. When they walked into the orphanage, they didn't see any children rushing over to grab their gifts, like in the other orphanages. On the contrary, the courtyard of the orphanage was deserted, and they did not see anyone. Quin couldn't help but frown slightly. She quickened her pace and walked toward the two-story building. Fade followed her immediately and glanced at their surroundings along the way. The ground on the courtyard was covered with normal soil, and it was firm and solid. There was the outline of a football field and a basketball court, with a ping-pong table next to it. As they walked through the courtyard into the small building, they noticed that it had been repaired and the wall had been repainted. Looking through the windows, he found that the living conditions inside the building were simple yet tidy. Although there were signs of wear and tear, as well as dirt in some places, in general, the environment of this orphanage was still acceptable. The children's normal life and education would not be affected. Quin walked through the corridor and went into the activity room on one side of the small building. She peered inside the room. There were scraps of paper, clay, lanterns and other items in the activity room. The children must have been preparing all sorts of decorations for the New Year. However, at this moment, all these items were strewn on the table. No one was there. It seemed like the children were in the midst of this activity when they had gone out. "What's going on here? Where have all the children gone?" Quin said, and she frowned slightly. Something did not feel right to her. At this moment, Fade's ears twitched. He could faintly hear voices from the back of the small building, so he called out to Quin. He pointed behind her and said, "I can hear something over there." The two of them passed through the building and arrived at the back of the building. As the two of them approached the back, the sound that they heard became clearer. "Yes, your expression is not correct. If you look sadder, it would be better. You should look like you are crying!" "You, don't move. Stand aside." "Mr. Hu, can you help me to take care of them? They are disobedient." Fade and Quin frowned at the same time when they heard those words. Then, they quickened their pace and walked over. They walked out of the building, and there was an open space there. Toilets, a recycling center and other rooms were being constructed there. At this time, twenty to thirty children were all gathered in the open space next to the toilet. Beside the children, there was a young woman with shoulder-length hair. She was wearing a sailor uniform, and wearing a pair of feline accessories on her head. She was constantly yelling at the children. The young woman pointed to the two children in the jacket and said discontentedly, "Didn't I tell you to wear less, so that you will look more pitiful? Who told you to wear the jacket? Hurry up and take it off." "But, it's very cold!" A child's voice could be heard. The woman suddenly became angry and shouted, "Do you want to receive a present? If you want to get a gift,then behave yourself." Then, the woman turned to the other side. She looked at several girls and finally picked out a girl who was sweet and cute. She said, "Later, during the live broadcast, smile brightly at the cell phone, and remember to act really cute. Do you understand?" "What do you mean by 'act really cute'?" The girl asked, and she looked at the woman.She seemed confused. Do you get it?" The young woman immediately demonstrated the actions that she wanted, such as pouting, fluttering the eyes, smiling sweetly etc. She looked at the girl and said, "Just like that. Do you get it?" "Also, remember to say brother and sister many times later, so that they will donate more gifts. Do you understand?"the young woman said. The little girl nodded, and she was still rather confused. However, she started practicing the cute gestures the woman had taught her. Then, the woman looked at the average-looking girls and pondered on what she should do with them. Suddenly, her eyes fell on the tap beside the toilet, and her eyes lit up. She said, "I know, bring a basin over and throw some old clothes in it. During the live broadcast, you plain looking ones will wash the clothes by the tap. Do you understand?" "But, sister, the water here is very cold. We use the water in the house to wash our clothes," a little girl said. The woman was suddenly displeased and she yelled, "You refuse to listen to me again. Just do as I say. Do you understand?" The little girl lowered her head timidly. The woman bellowed, "Now, go and get some ice water, and soak your hands in it. Take them out when they are red, do you understand?" After making these arrangements, the woman immediately took out her cell phone. She clamped it skillfully onto the selfie stick, and then she turned on the live app. She waved her hand at the camera, and she spoke in a melodious and charming voice, saying, "Hello everyone, Little Luna here." "I am here at a very special place for today's live broadcast." She turned her phone, and the words "Springlight Orphanage" above the building came into view. Then Little Luna continued, "Can you see that? I am at an orphanage nearby today. There are twenty-four children living here, but the living conditions are very poor. After I heard the news, felt distressed. Therefore, I am here at the orphanage with the purpose of paying a visit to these lovely children." Instantly, comments started to appear on the cell phone screen "Little Luna is truly kind. She went to visit the orphanage in such cold weather." "What a terrible environment. I would never imagine that someone could live in such a place." "Good on you Little Luna. I'll give you six likes." "I will give Little Luna 666 likes." "Where are the children? I want to see the children." Then, the cell phone camera was turned toward the children in the orphanage. She swayed the phone slightly to capture the whole view. Finally, she focused the camera on the little girl she had instructed to act cute. The woman spoke again, "These are the children of Springlight Orphanage. It is freezing today, and their clothes are thin, and the living conditions are dismal. When I arrived, everyone burst into tears, because they were so sad. Boo hoo!" "Little Luna, don't cry. I'll give you a hug!" "Someone will help them, Little Luna, don't cry." "Poor children, I'm weeping for them." "Did anyone noticed that the little girl just now was so cute!" "Yeah, she was so cute. Her face has turned red from the cold. I really want to bring her home and give her a hug!" "I have an idea..." "I can bring her somewhere, and make a big profit out of her." "Don't get any bad ideas. You can get a punishment ranging from 3 years in jail to a death sentence! Do you understand?" "Hmm, the little girl is cute, but my Little Luna is even cuter."
Chapter 242 When Little Luna noticed that the adorable little girl had attracted the attention of her audience, she smiled immediately. Out of the view of the cell phone camera, she winked at the little girl. Then, she said in a low voice, "Act cute now, and ask for presents." The little girl tried to act cute but her manner was slightly stiff. She said hesitantly, "Brothers and sisters, if you like me, give me a present, give me some likes, press the hands up button... Uh..." The little girl had forgotten some of the words she had rehearsed, and she was stuck. Little Luna felt a little anxious. She stared at the little girl and whispered, "Thumbs up button, not hands up button, also, don't forget to ask for donations..." However, the little girl was so nervous that she couldn't say anything at this moment. Little Luna had to force a smile and came forward herself. "Everyone, today all of you must donate more gifts! I have discussed this matter with the principal of this orphanage. The gifts and donations I receive in the live stream today will be given to the children in the orphanage,"she said. "Kind Little Luna, you are truly my favorite person!" "For the children in the orphanage, I would be willing to buy them an airplane." "I'll eat instant noodles for a month and give them an airplane!" "I will give them ten yachts!" "This person is a vulgar rich person, how generous is he!" Looking at the gifts that were being donated on the screen, Little Luna smiled. Then, she turned her eyes and looked at several girls on the other side. When she saw that they were sneezing, she felt annoyed. She put her cell phone aside and reprimanded them in a low voice, "I told you to put your hands in the water. What are you doing?" "Sister, the water is too cold." A girl said, and she stretched out her hand, which was red. She had several frost bites even. "My hand is frozen. I can't.." "There is nothing you can't do. Hurry up and soak them in the water," she said. While speaking, Little Luna grabbed the girl's frozen hand and placed it under the running water from the tap. The cold water aggravated the little girl's frost bite. She felt a painful sensation in her hand, and she struggled. She said, "Sister, please don't do this to me, it is painful." "Painful? Just tolerate the pain for a while! If I haven't moved my phone, you're not allowed to remove your hand from the water,do you understand?" The woman threatened her in a cold voice. The little girl was frightened and she felt continuous pain in her hands. However, she did not dare to remove her hand from the cold water. At this moment, Little Luna pretended to cry and acted sad. She picked up her phone and walked toward them. When Quin saw this, she was so angry that her pretty face turned cold. Her chest started to rise and fall as her fury increased. She strode over directly and pulled out the little girl's hand from the cold water. Then, she took off her coat and put it on the girl who was frozen. Just as Little Luna was about to shift the cell phone camera toward that little girl, she found that something unexpected had happened. She quickly turned the camera away and glared at Quin. She yelled, "What do you think you are doing?" Quin raised her voice and said coldly, "I should be the one asking you that question. What do you think you are doing? How dare you use the pain of these children to garner attention for yourself." Her voice was rather loud, and question marks began to appear on the screen. Little Luna's face turned pale. She explained quickly, "An accident has happened. I'll be ending the live stream for now." Then, she immediately switched off the live mode on her phone. Once the live broadcast was off, she didn't need to hide anything anymore. She walked toward Quin in anger and yelled in a displeased tone, "Old woman, what are you doing? You have ruined my live stream." "I won't allow you to use these children here to gain profit," Quin said angrily Little Luna was furious, and she said, "Who are you anyway? Who are you to tell me that it's not allowed? Do you know that you just ruined my live stream? I'll lose more than 100,000 yuan. Can you afford that?" Quin could not be bothered wi She turned to the shivering children and said, "Everyone, return to the house and put on some warm clothing. Don't catch a cold." Then, Quin shielded the little girl, whose hands had frost bites, from the cold. She turned to leave. But Little Luna didn't want Quin to leave just like that. She blocked her and said, "You have to pay me a compensation for ruining my live stream today. Don't even think of leaving." "Get out of the way!" Quin said coldly. "No! Unless you pay for my loss!" Little Luna bared her arms. Quin's eyes glinted, and she tried to bypass Little Luna. However, Little Luna acted as though she was filming some action sequence and she pounced on Quin. She even grabbed Quin's cheek with one hand. At this critical moment, someone shouted loudly behind her, "Get off her!" Little Luna suddenly heard a loud voice, like the sound of thunder near her. Her eardrums vibrated, and her head was spinning as she felt dizzy and stunned. She turned around and spotted Fade walking toward her with a darkened expression on his face, and her eyes shrank in fear. She was so frightened that she staggered a few steps backward. "Who are you? How dare you shout at me this way? Do you know who I am? What's more, you must pay for my loss!" Little Luna shouted, as she looked at Fade. "Pay for your loss?" Fade's eyes were cold and he sneered. "We didn't ask you to pay us, and you should be thankful for that. You want us to pay for your loss? Who allowed you to use these children for your live stream in order to cheat others of their money?" "I didn't cheat anyone!" Little Luna retorted. She continued, "Besides, it was the children who volunteered to be in my live stream. "Volunteered?" Quin said. Hearing her words, she felt herself losing her temper. Pointing at the little girl's frozen red hand, she shouted, "This girls's hand has frost bites, and you still forced her to put it under cold water. Do you think she volunteered for that?" Little Luna's expression changed slightly, but she straightened her neck and said, "My live stream was approved by the Principal of this orphanage. He gave me permission to work with these children." Quin gazed at the children with a puzzled expression. Since she had visited this orphanage before, they all recognized her, so they started to speak up. "Our Principal asked us to come here." "Yes, our Principal told us to listen to this sister!" "Our Principal also told us to be obedient. He said that sister will give each of us fifty yuan for New Year if we listen to her." "Did you hear that? My live stream is legal, and I am following the rules" Little Luna spoke loudly with a confident attitude. When Fade heard her words, he slapped her and said coldly, "How dare you argue with us. You used the children for your live stream, and you earned more than one hundred thousand yuan. Now, you only give them a few hundred yuan as reward. Aren't you a cheater?" "How dare you slap me! I'm going to attack you! I'm going all out!" Little Luna yelled, and she acted like an insane person and pounced on Fade. Fade did not show any mercy. He slapped her hard, and she fell down on the ground. He spoke in a cold tone, "I am not one of your fans who always flatters you. You are looking for death if you throw a tantrum in front of me!" His cold voice, with an incomparably icy tone, caused Little Luna to shudder. She sat on the ground and did not dare to speak At this moment, Quin took out her phone with a gloomy expression and dialed a number. She spoke coldly, "Mr. Hu, where are you? Come to the activity room right now and meet me there." "I said right now. Did you hear me?" Quin said coldly. She glared at Little Luna, who was on the ground. Then, she brought the children back to the activity room.

Chapter 243 In the activity room, a middle-aged man in his forties stood in front of Quin Lin. He seemed rather nervous and uneasy. Quin's gaze was as cold as ice, and she asked in a deep voice, "Mr. Hu, can you tell me what's going on?" Mr. Hu felt anxious, and he stammered, "President Lin, this, this..." "Speak up!" Quin yelled angrily Mr. Hu immediately shuddered in fear, and he said, "This, this lady came to our orphanage and said that she could help the children. She asked for my cooperation for her live broadcast. She said that she would buy gifts for the children after that." "Is that all?" Quin asked, and she stared coldly at Mr. Hu. Mr. Hu spoke with some difficulty, "She, she also gave me 1,000 yuan, telling me that it was the compensation for my hard work." "1,000 yuan!" Quin said, and she was enraged. She slammed her hand on the table and said, "Mr. Hu, are you telling me, that for the sake of 1000 yuan, you allowed them to be tortured by this woman on such a cold day?" "Every year, I donate more than five hundred thousand to Springlight Orphanage. Are you telling me that you think that this orphanage lacks one thousand yuan?" Quin asked, and she was furious. She could not accept the fact that Mr. Hu had cooperated with that woman, and allowed her to torture the children. Mr. Hu was aware of Quin's identity and knew that he couldn't defend himself. He knelt down, slapped himself in the face and cried out, "President Lin, I was wrong. I shouldn't have given in to temptation and caused the children to suffer just for some money. It was my mistake. Please, President Lin, give me another chance!" As Mr. Hu cried and begged for mercy, Quin gestured her hand coldly. She said, "There is no need for you to beg me for forgiveness. When I came to the orphanage eight years ago, I gave you a warning. I said that if you or the children are facing financial issues, you can report to our company and we will try our best to assist you. However, I will not allow you to use the orphanage or the children to earn extra profit. Therefore, please leave. I will arrange for someone else to be in charge of this orphanage." Mr. Hu was instantly stunned, and then he left the activity room in a daze. When Little Luna saw Quin's commanding attitude, she could not resist muttering, "Who is this woman,she seems so difficult, maybe she's some company boss or something." Quin turned around and glanced at her. She said coldly, "Please go and apologize to the children!" "What?" Little Luna said. She was stunned and yelled, "Are you asking me to apologize to those children? You must be kidding! My live stream benefited them, but now you want me to apologize to them. You must be joking!" "Benefited them?" Quin said coldly. She continued, "You wanted to use the children to cheat others of their money, and you still have the gall to deny that!" "I did not cheat anyone. I made a deal with the principal and paid him the money" Little Luna explained forcefully. She continued, "I also bought gifts for the children. They reaped the benefits, so why can't they cooperate with me?" "I can't believe you are still not sorry for what you did!" Quin said, and she was incensed. Little Luna straightened her neck and said, "You clearly have lots of money. If you want to be a good person, please go ahead and donate as much as you like. Why hold me to your standards and insist that I be like you? Besides, I spent money on this collaboration. How can you say that I'm cheating others of their money, just because I didn't donate as much as you did?" "If we follow your logic, you are clearly investing in the orphanage so that your company can become more well known. This will help you to make more sales and increase your profits. You are no different from me. What makes you think that you can talk to me in this manner?" Little Luna said. She was devious and eloquent with her words, as she defended herself Quin was taken aback by Little Luna's words. She was speechless. She had never been someone who was good at expressing herself. She knew that Little Luna's words were distorted and misleading, but she didn't know how to counter her argument. Little Luna had clarified her position quite well. Seeing that Quin was stunned, Little Luna continued, "You are silent. Looks like there is no difference between us. Since you're interested in raising the profile of your company, I'll make a small profit while helping the children. What's wrong with that?" "No, that's not my intention!" Quin retorted coldly. "How can you deny that. Don't tell me that you are investing in the orphanage due to your kind heart. You think that I have no experience working with companies. I know that all of you are just a group of greedy money-lusting vampires," Little Luna said. Quin's expression on her face became darker. At this moment, Fade Chen stepped forward and yelled, "Stop with your arguments and twisted words." Little Luna was frightened when she noticed Fade approaching her. She couldn't help but take a few steps backward. However, she still refused to back down from her argument. She said, "What twisted words? Did I speak the truth and offend you?" Fade spoke in a cold tone, "Don't compare yourself to my wife. It is an insult to my wife when you say that both of you are the same "Oh, I understand, you are bosses of large companies. I am just some social media influencer. Of course I can't be compared with you."Little Luna said sarcastically. Fade said coldly, "It's not a matter of our identities, but the reason why we are doing what we do. My wife loves the children, and cares about the children, and then makes a donation while promoting her company. But your main purpose is to make a profit. You treat the children as tools to earn sympathy from your fans." "So what is the reason you are doing this then? It's still just about the money. You are big bosses. If you donate a lot of money, then you can tell everyone that you are a good person. If I donate too little, you call me a cheater. Too ridiculous!" Little Luna continued to argue. Fade shook his head. This woman had completely fallen into the trap of money. The purpose of all her actions was to make a profit, and she thought that everyone else was the same. According to the worldviews of such people, they only cared about the benefits they reap, without caring about the feelings of others. Fade was too lazy to argue with this kind of person. He directly took out a few bank notes and threw them on Little Luna's face. He shouted, "Here is the money for the presents you bought. Take them and get out of here immediately. Don't come here again in the future." Little Luna wanted to continue to ridicule him, but when she noticed Fade's cold expression, she didn't dare to say anything else. She picked up the money directly and left the activity room. She straightened the bank notes nicely and placed them in her wallet. Little Luna opened the settings of her streaming software and checked on the gifts she had received today. When the stream was interrupted just now, she had already received a total of 30,000 yuan. After dividing it, she could probably take about half of it as commission. The income today was still not too bad. However, at the thought of the ruined live stream, and how she should explain the situation to her fans, Little Luna felt a sudden headache. She wondered if she should look for some young actors to hep her redo the scene. Or should she find some excuse to fool her fans? Just as Little Luna was trying to think of a solution, a notification sign appeared on her phone. She took a look at the sign and discovered that someone had tagged her on Weibo. She didn't think much of that. After all, as an influencer with millions of followers, it was normal for her to be tagged more than hundred times a day. However, after this notification, her Weibo suddenly kept beeping, as though it was about to explode. Her Weibo seemed to receive a continuous stream of private messages and comments.
Chapter 244 Little Luna was a little confused. "What's going on right now? Why the sudden flurry of activity? Is there some big shot who did an advertisement for me?" She was feeling upbeat, but when she clicked on the private messages and the content that she was tagged in, her face suddenly turned pale in fright. The source of these notifications was from a post by "the little assistant of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc". This user had published the complete story of Little Luna's payment to the orphanage for their collaboration, and how she had purposely tortured the children so that they would look pitiful. The post also detailed how she had orchestrated the live broadcast for profits. The Weibo post was descriptive, and pictures were inserted. There were also some recordings and videos accompanying the post. It was detailed and it explained what had happened at Little Luna's live broadcast that day. Many social media influencers and important personages in the entertainment industry were tagged in the post. Just like that the truth was revealed and word started to spread. Everyone on Weibo began to discuss about this matter. Fans who were puzzled by the sudden interruption of the live broadcast by Little Luna spotted this breaking news, and they remembered that the live broadcast had some strange aspects. They began to speculate about this matter. As a result, many of her fans left messages one after the other, and the messages were full of cursing and angry remarks. Some fans who had sent gifts directly asked her for a refund. Some angry fans even took action to hire lawyers to sue Little Luna for fraud, and wanted to bring her to court Little Luna didn't expect this to happen. She was completely dumbfounded. At this time, the live broadcast company that she had a contract with also called her,and they scolded her in anger. "What's wrong with you? How can you do something like this! We spent money to hire you. Are you aware that this scandal greatly affects the image and reputation of our company? We would like to terminate our contract with you" Little Luna felt dizzy, and she almost fell to the ground. "It was not easy for me to become a well-known influencer with one million followers. I'm afraid that I will gardner a bad reputation because of this matter, she thought to herself. Looking at the contents of the post, Little Luna knew that it was created by both of the people she had encountered just now. She instantly felt resentful, and she desired revenge. At this time, her cell phone rang again. When Little Luna saw who was calling, she had an idea. Then, she picked up the phone Without saying a word, she started to cry. The male voice on the other end of the phone seemed stunned. Then, he immediately consoled her, "Little Luna, what's wrong? Stop crying, tell me what happened?" "Brother Yuan, what happened was. I." Little Luna immediately cried and she told the story. Of course, the whole story was told from her perspective. Quin Lin and Fade Chen had purposely bullied her and humiliated her. Mr. Yuan, who was on the opposite end of the phone, was furious when he heard her story. He immediately said, "Little Luna, you are at Springlight Orphanage? That must be in Bay City! I am not far from there. Wait for me, I will be there soon. How dare these people insult my little Luna. I must make that hypocritical couple pay the price." "Oh, thank you, Brother Yuan. I, I am afraid, I am afraid that they will attack me. Hurry up, you'd better bring more people to help me!" Little Luna begged him. "Alright, I'll ask my brothers to come with me," Brother Yuan said on the other end. He felt that his heart was about to jump out of his chest, and he started to leave immediately. She could even hear the sound of cars starting over the phone. Then, he hung up the phone. Little Luna's expression became icy. She looked at the orphanage coldly and said angrily, "Since you tried to ruined my business, don't blame me for retaliating." Brother Yuan, whose username on the internet was "Chief Yuan Loves Little Luna", was the No. 1 Hardcore fan of Little Luna. In the past six months, he had spent millions of yuan on gifts for her. Later, Little Luna had contacted Chief Yuan and discovered that he was a real boss of a company. He owned a mine and had assets of more than one billion yuan. For him, a few million yuan was just a drop in the ocean. Therefore, Little Luna decided to get close to this rich guy. When she was doing her live broadcasts, she was particularly friendly toward Chief Yuan. She also mentioned him frequently in her various fan activities.She gave Chief Yuan the respect and attention that he desired. Finally, since Chief Yuan had greatly supported her career and showered her with gifts and money, Little Luna had to meet Chief Yuan in person. She met with him in a hotel and showed her gratitude to him. After meeting him a few times, she became Chief Yuan's mistress. From time to time, she would make a trip to the hotel to thank Chief Yuan. However, she didn't think that this was a problem, as long as she could make money, and both parties were willing. Now,Chief Yuan would be useful to her once more. He owned a mine, and he had many workers under his order. If he just commanded them to come over, they would follow him. She really needed them to teach that couple she had argued with a lesson. "Hmm, when Chief Yuan arrives, you will be weeping!" Little Luna said, with malice in her heart. Half an hour later, the sound of car brakes could be heard at the gate of the orphanage. A Land Rover was in front of the cars. A man in his thirties, who was wearing a gold chain, got out of the car. When Little Luna saw the man, she sobbed and ran into the man's arms. She said shyly, "Brother Yuan, you're finally here. I've been bullied badly by those people." Chief Yuan held Little Luna in his arms and clenched his fists. He spoke in anger, "Who dares to bully my Little Luna? They are asking to die!" "They are inside!" Little Luna said, and she pointed at the activity room of the orphanage. Chief Yuan gestured his hand and yelled, "Let's go and claim justice for my little Luna." Instantly, there was a loud noise behind Chief Yuan. More than 30 strong-looking thugs rushed in the orphanage aggressively Fade and Quin, who were in the activity room, also heard the sound outside. The frowned, and they came out and spotted Little Luna. Fade frowned and he spoke coldly, "How dare you come back here?" Little Luna smirked as she snuggled in Chief Yuan's arms. She said, "Both of you bullied me. Why would I not dare to come back?" After that, she acted flirtatious in Chief Yuan's arms and said in a delicate voice, "Brother Yuan, these people bullied me. You have to avenge me!" "Of course!" Chief Yuan answered, and he pounded his chest. He glanced at Fade and Quin, and spoke clearly. "If you dared to bully my sister, come over and kneel down right now.Apologize to her immediately. Otherwise, I will tear down your orphanage." As he spoke, Chief Yuan raised his hand and the thugs behind him started to create a ruckus. The atmosphere became tense. Fade and Quin's faces fell, and they looked furious.
Chapter 245 Little Luna became gleeful. She spoke in excitement, "You are frightened now! Come here. I want you to kneel down before me and apologize to me. I also want you to clarify the situation on Weibo." "Did you hear that? Come here and kneel down!" Chief Yuan shouted. Fade Chen said coldly, "I gave you an opportunity to leave, but you didn't treasure it. You are looking for death!" "Brother Yuan, look, he's still threatening me, Little Luna said, with a pitiful yet flirtatious tone. Chief Yuan suddenly felt chivalrous. He gestured his hand and bellowed, "Come on, bring them here. They must kneel down before Little Luna." Instantly, the thugs behind Chief Yuan rushed over. Little Luna beamed with excitement, and she was pleased, as she would be getting her revenge. However, at this moment, Quin Lin, who had remained silent the whole time, spoke suddenly. She had recognized Chief Yuan. "You're Foster Yuan from the Farzen District, aren't you? You own a mine." "Hey, how do you know that? Do we know each other?" Chief Yuan said. He glanced at Quin in surprise, and there was a puzzled look in his eyes. But then, when he took a closer look at Quin's pretty face, he felt that she seemed familiar. He had a vague impression that he had seen her somewhere before. "A beautiful female boss from Bay City!" Chief Yuan quickly searched his mind. He thought of the clues that would help him identify her. He suddenly remembered that the username of the person who had posted about the scandal on Weibo was called "The Little Assistant of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc". "The beautiful female boss of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc in Bay City!" Suddenly, Chief Yuan was shocked and his heart pounded violently. His face was full of horror. "You, you are the president of Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc, Quin Lin, President Lin!" Quin said coldly, "Yes, you are correct." In an instant, Chief Yuan felt as though he had fallen into freezing water. His whole body became cold and he could not stop trembling. He muttered, "President Lin, how could she be here? If we offend her, we will be in big trouble!" At this time, the thugs that were with him shouted loudly and were rushing toward Fade, ready to fight. As they shouted, Chief Yuan turned his eyes to Fade.His heartbeat quickened as he thought to himself, "A young man who is highly skilled in martial arts, and he's with President Lin. This, this must be the legendary... Lunatic Chen of Bay City." At this moment, Fade made his move. With a few strikes, he sent several thugs in front of him flying across the courtyard. Witnessing Fade's skills, Chief Yuan felt hopeless. This was not his lucky day. He quickly shouted like a madmen, "Stop, stop attacking." At this time, he felt that his heart could explode. He felt as though he had plunged into a bottomless abyss. The grim aura of death seem to surround him. A terrifying chill emanated from the soles of his feet and rose to the top of his head, causing him to become thunderstruck. Offending Quin would hurt his business. However, offending Lunatic Chen was not a matter of business, it was a matter of life and death. Instantly, Chief Yuan couldn't care about anything else. He released Little Luna, and rushed toward Fade. He knelt on the ground and said, "Mr. Chen, President Lin, I didn't recognize you. I didn't know that it was the both of you. I was wrong. I... Pa... Pa..." Chief Yuan slapped himself hard in the face directly. He did that for a few times. Little Luna, who was ready to watch the unfolding drama, was stunned when she saw what was happening. She did not understand what was going on. Why did her patron, Chief Yuan, suddenly kneel down before him? "Brother Yuan, you must be making a mistake. These are my enemies. How could you.." Little Luna said doubtfully, and she came over to Chief Yuan's side. Chief Yuan immediately went into a rage. He slapped Little Luna's face and shouted, "Your enemies? This is President Lin and Mr. Chen. You can't simply call them as your enemies! Kneel down and apologize to them!" Little Luna was stunned, and she didn't understand what was happening. She asked, "Who is President Lin and Mr. Chen?" Chief Yuan was even more anxious. He pressed Little Luna, so that she knelt down, and he said in a cold voice," This is Quin Lin, or President Lin, of Bay City's Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc. That is Mr. Fade Chen, the current boss of Bay City and Hanover City. Mr. Chen has a famous nickname... Lunatic Chen." Little Luna was not from Bay City, so she did not know about the changes there. However, she had heard of the name Lunatic Chen. Some time ago, news about this guy was a hot topic of discussion. There was all sorts of gossip about him. Little Luna still remembered that she had read posts related to Lunatic Chen at that time, but she had felt that what was being said was too ridiculous. She thought that someone had made up these stories just for hype. However, she did not expect that this person was real and the events that transpired were true. At once, Little Luna started trembling in fear. Compared to those rich people who had been defeated by Lunatic Chen, she was only an influencer, and she was simply not worth mentioning at all. Not to mention, even a boss at Chief Yuan's level was as small as an ant in front of Lunatic Chen. At this moment, she felt an endless sense of horror and regret. Why did she offend these two people? Why did she come to the orphanage? Why did she... "Mr. Chen, President Lin, I don't know her well. She lied to me, so I came here. Please forgive me," Chief Yuan apologized in a hurry, and he threw Little Luna under the bus without hesitation. At this moment, Little Luna was trembling with fear, and she could not speak fluently. "I, I... I don't... know, I'm... wrong. Fade looked at both of them coldly and he glanced at his wife. His wife looked at Chief Yuan and said in a cold voice, "The Yuan Family will not be allowed to do business in Bay City in the future. Chief Yuan suddenly felt cold and powerless. He also felt bitter, as he would lose at least 30% of his mining business. However, under such a situation, he had to accept his loss. "Thank you, President Lin. Thank you, Mr. Chen!" Chief Yuan thanked them, as he groveled before them. Then, Quin's eyes fell on Little Luna, and she said, "I don't want her to be on the internet anymore." Fade nodded. He called Fatty Huang and said, "There is a social media influencer called Little Luna.Please blacklist her. Don't let her appear again on the Internet in the future. 'll give you three days to deal with this matter." Hearing that she was blacklisted, Little Luna was dumbfounded, and she collapsed directly on the ground. She lost all her energy and spirit, as though she had lost her soul. Blacklisting her meant that she was blocked on social media, and she could no longer appear in any live broadcasts. Without the income from her live broadcast, how would she be able to maintain her rich and comfortable life in the future? This was probably going to be a huge problem. Looking at both of them, who seemed lost and defeated, Fade shouted coldly, "Now,get out!" "Thank you sir!" Chief Yuan answered, and he got up from the ground and ran quickly. After getting in the car, he left immediately. He didn't care that Little Luna was still lying on the ground.
Chapter 246 Because of this conflict, Quin Lin's mood was affected. However, she quickly recovered when she spoke to the children and laughed with them. She was there till evening. Then, Quin waved goodbye to the children in this orphanage with a smile on her face. By the time they returned to the mansion, it was already eight o'clock in the evening. Quin was exhausted. After a simple dinner, she took a hot shower and directly went upstairs to rest. Thereafter, Fade Chen followed Quin, but she glared at Fade. She crossed her hands in front of her chest, looking vigilant. Although the joyful events of the past few days had caused them to become closer, Quin's character was different from that of an average woman. It was hard for her to open up. Therefore, the two of them still slept separately. Seeing this, Fade smiled and said, "Honey, I don't have any intentions. I just want to give you a massage so that you can sleep better." "Just a massage?" Quin asked, and she looked at Fade suspiciously. This guy had said that he wanted to massage her several times, but in the end, he had secretly taken advantage of her. Noticing the expression on his wife, Fade couldn't help but laugh. He nodded and said, "Dear, don't worry. I will really just be massaging you. Otherwise, you can punish me. I'll not be allowed to be intimate with you for three months." When he brought up intimacy, Quin's pretty face suddenly turned red. She rolled her eyes at Fade and said, "I won't make out with you in future. Therefore, I'll give you a chance this time!" "Okay, dear, i'm coming!" Fade said, and he walked cheerfully toward Quin. When he went into his wife's room which had pink sheets and drapes, Fade had her lie on the bed. Then, he gently took off her blouse, revealing her smooth back. He used his hands to touch her back, and began to increase the strength of the massage. Fade's massage technique was very good. Every time he placed his hand on her, the position and strength of the massage were just right. Quin felt completely comfortable and relieved.She felt less tired and more relaxed. After massaging her back for a while, Fade spoke to her in a soft voice, "Honey, turn around. We will continue the massage!" His words reminded Quin of something else, and her face turned red. She turned around and she was facing him. Fade was smiling slightly, and he stretched out his hands toward her. Quin could not help but feel nervous. She covered her chest with both hands and said, "Don't, don't do anything to me!" "Don't worry, my dear wife. I've promised you not to," Fade said with a smile. Then, he placed his hands on Quin's shoulders, and he began to massage her again. As he massaged her, his hands began to slide downward. Sometimes, he would touch some sensitive parts of her body, which immediately caused Quin to feel nervous. But soon, with Fade's massage, Quin's fatigue faded away little by little, and she felt completely relaxed. She loosened her hands involuntarily, revealing a beautiful scene. Looking at the magnificent view in front of him, Fade couldn't help but gulp, and he felt as though burning desire was kindled within him. However, noticing his wife's half closed eyes, Fade realized that his wife was really tired today. He restrained himself and slowed down his movements. Finally, she fell asleep while he was massaging her. Then, Fade covered his wife gently with a blanket and prepared to leave. Unexpectedly, his wife grabbed his arms with both hands and uttered softly, "Don't leave me, mom, dad, don't leave me!" Looking at his wife's beautiful face, Fade frowned slightly The look of panic on her face was similar to that of a child who had been left by her parents. Fade feel his heart aching for her. He patted his wife's body gently and hummed softly. He comforted her and said, "Don't worry, I will never leave you." Fade's consolation seemed to be effective. Quin's tightened brows gradually relaxed, and her hands, which were gripping Fade's arms, gradually loosened. However, when Fade got up and was about to leave, his wife grabbed him instinctively again, as though she was worried that he would leave her. Seeing this, Fade felt an inexplicable pain in his heart. He said to himself, "Dear, don't worry. I will do my best to help you find your missing mother." Then, Fade carefully placed the huge soft Doraemon toy into Quin's arms. She immediately held on to the toy tightly like a child, with a sweet smile on her face. Finally, she fell asleep. With a smile on the corner of his mouth, Fade prepared to leave. But at this time, the phone started to ring rather urgently Fade discovered that his wife's cell phone on the bedside table was ringing. Usually, his wife would turn off her phone before going to bed. But today, she had fallen asleep while he was giving her a massage, so she didn't turn off her phone. Looking at his wife who was sound asleep, Fade grabbed the phone and rushed out of the bedroom. Then he answered the call and whispered, "Hello." The person on the other side of the phone was speaking in a foreign language. "Hello, baby.." Even with Fade's limited understanding, he could tell that the other person was familiar with Quin. He even called her "baby" Fade frowned instantly and his voice was rather cold. He said, "I'm sorry, I don't understand you." As he spoke, he was about to hang up the phone. But at this moment, the person started speaking in Chinese, but with a foreign accent. He said, "Is this Quin's phone?" "Quin!" This intimate greeting immediately caused Fade to frown even more, and a surprised expression appeared on his face. However, he replied, "This is Quin's phone. You're..." "I'm Klaude, Quin's classmate," The voice on the other end of the phone sounded like that of a young man. Suddenly, Fade felt rather jealous. He thought to himself, "Since when did Quin have a Western classmate? "Who are you? Can you ask Quin to answer the phone?" The voice of the other person was a little alert, even reproachful. Fade came to his senses and said in a cold voice, "I'm sorry, Quin is not free. She can't answer your call right now." Then, Fade hung up. But as soon as he hung up, the phone rang immediately. When Fade saw who was calling, it was still the same phone number as before. His face fell and he directly pressed the hang up button. Fade was worried, so he turned off her phone directly Then, he tiptoed back into Quin's bedroom and placed it on the bedside table. Then he went downstairs to wash up, and he went back to his room to lie down. It was a pleasant day, but for some reason, as he thought of the phone call from the westerner just now, Fade felt rather uncomfortable. He only fell asleep after midnight
Chapter 247 The next morning, as Fade Chen got out of bed, Quin Lin had already gotten up and was preparing breakfast in the kitchen. Of course, with Quin's cooking skills, she could not prepare complicated dishes. She could only prepare simple breakfast such as bread, milk, eggs, fruits etc. Maybe it was due to the massage last night, but Quin was in good spirits. When she saw Fade, she said with a smile, "You're awake! Go and wash up, then come and have breakfast. Fade, who was still not fully awake, cheered up after hearing his wife's words. After washing up, he sat down at the table and had breakfast with her. While eating, Fade spotted his wife's phone next to her. He couldn't help but remember something, and he said immediately, "Dear, after you fell asleep yesterday, I answered a call on your phone." "Oh, I saw it. it must have been Klaude, right?" Quin said casually. From her words, it seemed that she was quite familiar with Klaude. Fade noticed that there was too much vinegar in the egg he was having. The taste was too sour. "He said that he was your classmate, and he asked you to answer the phone. However, I saw that you were asleep, so I turned it off, he continued. Quin noticed that Fade seemed a little jealous and she was amused. She explained casually, "Klaude is one of my classmates. I met him two years ago when I participated in a MBA course in Micovia. The course was around two months." "I met many friends and contacts in the business world there. We left our contact details with each other for business reasons. However, after returning home, we had no contact till now. I didn't expect him to call me. He may be calling me about some official business matters!" After listening to Quin's explanation, Fade felt a sense of relief and contentment. He felt much better. "Oh.. both of you are just classmates for two months. You have spent less time with Quin than I have. What kind of classmate are you? Hmm, westerners have no self-respect. My Quin is not your familiar friend. Don't call her baby!"Fade thought to himself. Quin didn't know what Fade was thinking. She continued helping herself to breakfast. At this time, her cell phone rang. Quin immediately picked up the phone and got up. She walked to the side, and began to chat on the phone. Fade seemed to hear Quin mentioning the name "Klaude" on the phone. He had just felt relieved, but now he suddenly became nervous again. After Quin finished her call, she returned to the dining table. Fade pursed his lips and pretended to ask casually, "Why did Klaude call you again? What time is it now? Why did he call you so early in the day?" Quin glanced at Fade, and she explained, "No, it was his secretary on the phone. He said that he wanted to discuss a business collaboration with me." "Then how come I heard you say Klaude's name?" Fade asked. He discovered that people who were in love got jealous easily. Any tiny irregularity caused him to feel nervous and suspicious Quin burst into laughter and said, "Don't think too much about it. Keele Corporation is owned by Klaude's family. He had contacted my company, saying that he had some business to discuss with me." "Keele Company!" Hearing this name, Fade couldn't help but be surprised. He didn't expect Klaude to be a wealthy man Also, he started feeling more vigilant. Keele Corporation was the largest beverage company in Micovia and all over the world. Their business encompassed all types of drinks, alcohol, and snacks. It was definitely a mega corporation. Although Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc possesed many assets at Bay City, there was still a huge gap between the enterprise and Keele Corporation, which was an international mega corporation. Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc was a cosmetics company, which was completely different from Keele Corporation. Klaude's request to Quin for a business collaboration caused Fade to doubt him. It was clear that he had other intentions. "Why does Keele Corporation want to collaborate with her? It seems to me that the products they are marketing are different!"he thought. Quin could guess what Fade was thinking. She smiled and said, "I am also not clear on the situation right now. I'll figure it out when I meet him at the company office." After she had mentioned they were meeting, Quin saw Fade's eyebrows twitching. She couldn't help but feel amused, and she explained, "We are having a business meeting. I will be accompanied by my secretary. Now, stop worrying!" Fade nodded, took a bite of bread and said, "No worries! I've always trusted my wife." Looking at Fade's jealous expression, Quin was rather mystified. After all, when they had first met, Quin had insisted that both of them would be getting married to each other. Then, he had rejected her instantly. Now, she was not expecting him to act like an infatuated boy who was clinging to her. After breakfast, Quin said goodbye and drove to the company office Fade wanted to accompany her, but he received a call came from his cell phone. Fade was a little surprised to see that Mindy Wu was calling him. He answered the phone, "Sister Mindy!" "Hello, Fade. Are you free this morning?" Mindy asked. Fade thought for a moment, then he nodded and said, "Yes, I'm free. Sister Mindy, what's wrong? Did something happen?" Mindy, who was on the other end of the phone, seemed to be a little hesitant. After a pause, she said, " I need your help, for a certain matter ." "What is the matter, sister Mindy. As long as I can help you, will not reject you." Fade said, and he patted his chest. Mindy didn't know what to say. She hesitated for a moment and said, "Can we discuss this matter in person?" "Well, of course. Sister Mindy, where are you? I'll come and meet you now, Fade said. Mindy gave Fade an address immediately. It was the address of a downtown high-end cafe in one of the city's commercial streets. "Thank you, Fade," Mindy said. "Sister Mindy, don't be so polite. I'll be there soon!" Fade said. He hung up, took the car and drove toward the cafe. Forty minutes later, Fade arrived at the cafe and met Mindy there. Today, Mindy was dressed casually. She had straightened her curly hair. The mole around her left eyebrow was also covered by her hair. Her appearance looked less alluring than her usual charming self, but she seemed more simple and pure. She seemed more youthful today. Mindy's eyes were lowered and her hands were clasping the corners of her clothes. She seemed rather nervous and uneasy, which surprised Fade. After all, Mindy did not act like this in her daily life. She must have encountered some problem that was bothering her. "Sister Mindy, I'm here!" Fade greeted her. Mindy seemed to be immersed in her own thoughts and did not realized that he had arrived. She jumped a little from fright when she heard his voice. She jerked her head upward and almost knocked over the coffee cup on the table. Then she quickly held the cup and smiled at him, saying, "Fade, you are here. Please take a seat!"
Chapter 248 Fade Chen was sitting opposite Mindy Wu, and he looked at her with some concern. He said, "Sister Mindy, what's wrong? You look a little nervous. Did something happen?" Mindy shook her head and picked up the cup of coffee with both hands. She took a sip gently, and remained silent. Seeing Mindy behaving like this, Fade knew that something was on her mind. Otherwise, she would not act so unusual. Fade did not continue to ask her anymore. He ordered a cup of coffee and accompanied her quietly. After drinking half of her coffee, Mindy finally made up her mind. She put down the coffee cup, and looked at Fade. She said, "Fade, I need your help this time for an issue that I am facing." "Sister Mindy, please tell me," Fade said earnestly, and he leaned forward slightly. Mindy sighed and said, "Fish's father... is back." "Oh.." Fade replied. He was slightly surprised, and he glanced at Mindy. "Sister Mindy, are you saying that your ex husband is back?"He asked. Mindy nodded and confirmed that he was right. Fade looked at the indescribable expression on Mindy's face. He asked cautiously, "Sister Mindy, are you thinking of... getting back together with him?" Mindy trembled when she heard the phrase "getting back together". She shook her head and said, "That would be impossible. When I discovered all his actions, I gave up on him." "Sister Mindy, if it's alright with you, could you tell me what happened..." Fade said. Mindy nodded and said, "There is nothing for me to hide. Many people are aware about what had happened at the time." Mindy reminisced about the past with a sigh, "When I was a research student, he was my senior. We met in one of the lab classes. However, we were not familiar with each other at that time. When he was close to graduation, we became an official couple." "Then, he graduated and started work. A year later, I graduated and joined the same company. We were colleagues working together, and we stayed in the company for two years. The relationship was steady and we got married within a year and a half after graduation." "But during that period of time, he encountered some trouble at work. He felt that he had been working for three years but he was stagnant in his career growth. He wanted to get a promotion, but there were no opportunities. I consoled him a lot, and also secretly asked my father and my brother to help him find another job. However, he was discontented and dissatisfied with life." "Later during winter that year, I discovered that I was pregnant, and returned from the hospital with excitement. 1 was going to tell him this good news. But on that day, he suddenly told me that he had made a decision." "I asked him what his decision was, and he told me that in the field that he had specialized in, he had no chance for advancement in the country. He was going abroad and would be studying in Micovia, to gain more knowledge and further advance his career in the future." "I didn't want him to leave at that time. After all, we had just gotten married not more than half a year ago. Also, I was pregnant. But after some discussion, he still decided to leave for his studes in Microvia." "As a result, we quarreled, and both our parents got involved. But he was determined. In the end, he even knelt down and begged me not to restrain his desire to pursue his dreams, and to give him freedom." Hearing this, the corner of Fade's eyes twitched slightly, and he had an angry expression on his face. A man who was leaving his pregnant wife and unborn child saying that he wanted his wife to let him go and give him freedom. Such a selfish and hypocritical person was truly despicable. Seeing Fade's expression, Mindy curled her lips slightly. She laughed in a self-deprecating manner and said, "Yes, It was infuriating. At that time, I was so angry that I almost fainted. Anyway, I allowed him to go. I gave him his freedom, and signed the divorce agreement." "After that, he immediately flew to Micovia to pursue his so called dreams and enjoy his freedom. I quit my job and stayed at home to rest. Nine months later, Fish was born." "At that time, I had almost forgotten him. But the birth of my child made me feel nostalgic. So, I contacted him and talked about our child. "My intention was to allow Fish's biological father to meet her. However, when I told him this news, he was very nervous and kept trying to probe into my affairs. He was very anxious that I would bring the child and search for him, affecting his life there." "Later, I asked someone to help me find out what had happened to him. Only then did I find out that after he had gone to Micovia, he had married a 50-year old woman there in order to gain the green card there." "After that, he graduated from his studies and applied to work in a big corporation. He divorced his wife in Micovia immediately. When I called him again, he was handling the legal procedures of the divorce, and he was afraid that 1 would find out about this matter. He thought that I would want to bring the child to him and become a legal citizen of Micovia." At this moment, Fade was speechless. That guy was way too selfish. When he heard the news that his child was born, he didn't think of his wife and his child, nor the memories of the past. Instead, he was worried that sister Mindy would try to take advantage of him. Mindy's expression was also rather gloomy, and she continued, "Yesterday, he contacted me again and said that he had returned to the country. He wanted to have a talk with me and he wanted to meet Fish." Fade frowned and he said, "It's been several years now. He didn't want to see you in the past. Why is he suddenly returning to the country to see his child now?" Mindy shook his head and said, "I don't know either. Maybe, maybe there are other reasons for him to change his mind!" Mindy looked a little flustered when she said this. Seeing her in this state, Fade realized that Mindy might still feel hopeful for her ex-husband. Perhaps it was because he was her first love, or maybe it was because of their child. Because sister Mindy was hopeful, she agreed to meet with her ex-husband. But she was still worried and afraid, so she had called Fade to meet her here. "Sister Mindy, where is Fish?" Fade asked. Mindy said, "I asked a nanny to bring Fish to the playground. I'm going to meet with my ex-husband and see what he wants first, and then decide whether Fish should see him." Fade nodded and said, "That's a good idea. I'll stay here with you, sister Mindy." Mindy nodded, and she was silent. She seemed confused. About ten minutes later, a man in a suit appeared outside the cafe. Mindy couldn't help but tremble when she saw the man's figure. Her expression changed as she noticed the man walking in. She quickly said, "Fade, sit next to me."
Chapter 249 Fade Chen went to the opposite side of the table and sat next to Mindy Wu. At this time, the man had already spotted Mindy, and he came over with a smile. Fade glanced at the man, who was in his early thirties. He was dressed in a dark blue suit and had long hair. He wore a pair of gold-rimmed spectacles, and he held a briefcase in his hand. He looked like someone who worked at an elite corporation As the man approached them, Fade felt that Mindy was trembling slightly. The expression in her eyes kept changing. He couldn't tell what she was feeling right now. "Sister Mindy, calm down!" Fade said. He held Mindy's hand gently, and squeezed it. Mindy took a deep breath, and she nodded at Fade with a smile. Then, she looked at the man who was walking toward them. The man walked up to her and the corners of his mouth were slightly raised. With an expressive smile on his face, he said, "Dear Mindy, I'm back." The pretentious words of affection and his intimate greeting caused Fade to frown. They were divorced, and he still pretended to be close to her. Obviously, Mindy was not used to this sweet greeting. Her voice was rather stiff. She pointed to the seat on the opposite side of the table and said politely, "Please take a seat." The man sat down, and his eyes fell on Fade. He seemed curious and doubtful. Mindy immediately introduced him, "This is Fade Chen, who is my... friend!" Then, she also introduced the man to Fade, "Fade, this is Boris Song. "Hello, Mr. Chen!" Boris Song said, and he reached out to Fade, ready to shake his hands. Fade's eyes flashed. He picked up his cup of coffee and drank it. Boris instantly withdrew his hand awkwardly. He still smiled, as though he was trying to be polite. For some time, the three of them remained silent and the atmosphere became awkward. Mindy rubbed her hands and said, "Why are you looking for me?" Boris chuckled and he said, "Mindy, we haven't seen each other for so many years. I want to see you... and our child." While speaking, Boris took out a photo, and touched it lovingly. He seemed like a caring father. "Our child is called Fish, right? What a lovely little girl she is," He said. When Fade saw this, he couldn't help but shrink his eyes. He felt even more disgusted with this man. In the past, this guy had abandoned his wife and child and had gone to Micovia. Later, when his child was born, Mindy had called him to tell him about the child, but he did not care at all. He was just worried that Mindy would look for him and give him trouble instead, and he was rather vigilant. But now, he had a look of deep affection for the child. This seemed unnatural and phony, especially the tears in the corners of his eyes. Fade felt really uncomfortable. Mindy also felt that something was wrong. She shook her head and said, "Fish is busy, so I didn't bring her." Boris smiled gently and put Fish Song's photo into his pocket. Then, he wiped the tears at the corner of his eyes with the back of his hand. He sighed softly and smiled affectionately. He looked at Mindy and said, "Fish is not here today, so i'll come and see her again. Now, I'm especially here to see you, Mindy." "Mindy, do you know? During the years when I was abroad, I have never forgotten how I felt about you. When I was hard at work in Micovia, your photos gave me the strength and motivation to survive each day. I never forgot you for a moment. I always thought that I could achieve great things and bring joy to your life." Boris said. He looked into Mindy's eyes affectionately and made a move to hold Mindy's hand. Mindy was confused, listening to someone she had once loved, her former husband, revealing such deep feelings to her. Even if she had some reservations, she could not react. Her movements were rather slow and she did not avoid Boris's hand. Witnessing this, Fade immediately had a bad feeling about what was going to happen. This guy had latched on to Mindy's hope in her heart and was launching an attack against her, trying to tear down her guard. Instantly. Fade coughed lightly. He pushed the coffee cup toward Mindy,and he blocked her hands. He reminded her, "Sister Mindy, the coffee is turning cold. Drink it while it's hot!" After hearing Fade uttering these words, Mindy came back to her senses. She withdrew her hands suddenly, held up the coffee cup, and drank her coffee gently. Boris's rejection caused his expression to darkened. Looking gloomy,he glared at Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, I have private matters to discuss with Mindy. If it's convenient for you, why don't you go over there and order something? I'll pay for it!" As he spoke, Boris took out his wallet from his suit pocket, and took out some red notes of around one or two thousand yuan. He handed it to Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, please!" Fade glanced at the bank notes handed over by Boris and he smiled disdainfully. He deliberately pulled up his sleeve, revealing the watch hidden underneath his sleeve. "I'm sorry, I'm not hungry!"he said. Boris's eyes shrink when he saw Fade's watch. His expression changed a little. He looked at Fade differently. He recognized the watch on Fade's wrist it was a Rolex, which was a limited edition. There were only two hundred such Rolexes available in the world. Each of them cost at least two million yuan. At such a young age, Fade was able to obtain such a valuable watch. This caused Boris to admire him. Fade did not know the exact price of his watch, because it was given to him by his wife, Quin Lin. This watch was meant to be an accessory for him when he attended banquets. Although he didn't know the exact price, Fade knew that his watch was more valuable than all the money in Boris's wallet. Therefore, he purposely showed it off to him. At this moment, Mindy also came to her senses and understood what Boris was trying to say. She said, "Fade is a friend, a very good friend of mine. If you have anything to say to me, you can speak in front of him. He is not an outsider." The corners of Boris's eyes twitched slightly, and then he resumed his affectionate tone and expression. He said to her, "Mindy, I'll tell you the truth. The reason why I returned to the country is to bring Fish and yourself to Micovia. I missed you so much. I want to be with you, and make up for my mistakes all these years." After Fade's interruption, Mindy was more alert at the moment. She declined his offer coldly, saying, "No thank you. Fish and I are happy right now. We don't want to go to Micovia." Boris continued to speak affectionately, "Mindy, I know that I have made many mistakes in the past years. I definitely owe it to you. But this time, I want to make it up to you." Mindy shook her head and said, "Boris, the past has passed. Now that we have settled down, I don't to be involved with you any longer. Today's meeting is our last farewell. Don't try to look for me or Fish again."
Chapter 250 After that, Mindy Wu got up, took Fade Chen's hand and prepared to leave. Boris Song's eyes narrowed when he saw this. He immediately stood up and blocked Mindy from leaving. "Mindy, are we really not able to reconcile with each other?" he asked. Mindy shook her head and said, "The scars of the past six years are etched deeply in me. Even if you attempted a surgical procedure, it would be impossible for total recovery. Also, love and relationships are not like plastic surgery." "Then, Fish..." Boris said. Mindy's voice was a little cold. She said, "Fish doesn't know who you are. She does not recognize you as her father. Please don't harass her!" After she said that, Mindy left with Fade. Boris yelled as they left, "Mindy, Mindy." "What else do you want ?" Mindy asked. She turned around and looked at Boris. Boris looked hesitant, and he finally said, "Mindy, I know that I made mistakes in the past. I also know that we can't be together again, and I am not qualified to call myself Fish's father. I only have one last request. Can you agree to it?" When she saw that a person that she used to love was begging her, Mindy could not resist him. She softened her stance toward him and asked, "What do you want from me?" Boris's eyes flashed with joy, and he said, "Mindy, I want to meet my father-in-law... Oh... Mr. Wu. Can you arrange this meeting for me?" Mindy was rather surprised. She did not expect Boris to make such a request. She could not help but ask curiously, "Why do you want to see my father?" Boris said lightly, "The corporation that I work for in Micovia intends to build a factory at Bay City. There are some procedures that I don't understand. After the corporation discovered that my father-in-law was the former mayor, they asked me to inquire about these matters." Although Boris tried to be as polite as possible, Fade and Mindy could read between the lines. Mindy, who was feeling emotional, looked at Boris in incredulity. She shook her head and said sadly, "Boris, it's been six years. I thought maybe you had changed. Perhaps you had changed because of our child, or because of our past feelings." "But I was wrong. I was completely wrong. I shouldn't have felt hopeful when I met you," Mindy said, and she shook her head. She continued, "You are still the same as you were six years ago, and perhaps you are even more selfish now. Every action that you take is solely for your own benefit. "I contemplated our issues for a long time. However, I still could not foresee this request. After six years, you wanted to look for me just to meet my father, and ask him for assistance with the construction of this factory." "From now on, I want nothing to do with you." Mindy spoke, and she turned and left. The expression on her face was sad, angry, but slightly relieved. Boris chased after her and tried to explain himself. He said, "Mindy, no, it's not what you think. The matter of the factory is just a side issue. Today, I'm truly here for you!" Such sweet words had no effect on her at this moment. Mindy strode away without looking back. Boris quickly caught up with her and wanted to grab Mindy's arm. Fade turned around and blocked Boris. He said coldly, "Stop it. Stop chasing after her. Sister Mindy has said that she wants nothing to do with you in the future." Boris seemed rather anxious. He pushed Fade away angrily and shouted, "Get out of my way. You'd better not intervene in my affairs, otherwise... Fade grabbed Boris's collar and lifted him up. He said coldly, "Otherwise what.." Boris felt his collar gradually tightening, and he couldn't breathe. His face turned red suddenly, and he felt a sense of fear. He quickly gestured his hand and said, "I won't do anything, I won't do anything. I won't chase after her. Please put me down quickly." Fade snorted coldly and he threw Boris on the ground. He warned him, "Don't disturb Sister Mindy and Fish anymore. Otherwise, you will suffer the consequences. After that, Fade turned and left. He quickened his pace and chased after Mindy. At this moment, Mindy had walked out of the cafe. She stood outside the playground. She did not say a word, but silent tears flowed from her eyes. Fade walked over to her, handed her a piece of tissue paper, and comforted her. He said, "Sister Mindy, it's all over now. It's all in the past." Mindy took the tissue paper and wiped her eyes, but she couldn't stop her tears from flowing. Mindy opened her arms and threw herself into Fade's embrace. She said while crying, "Fade, am I foolish? After all these years, I was still expecting him to change. I'm such a fool." Fade whispered, "Sister Mindy, you are not a fool, he's just an awful person. But from now on, it's all in the past and everything will be fine." "Boohoo... Mindy sobbed in Fade's arms. Her tears caused Fade's clothes to become wet, and he could feel her soft body on him. Just as Fade was feeling rather distracted, the sound of a clear and lovely voice could be heard. "Mom, Brother Superman, what are you doing?" Fade and Mindy were both shocked. They saw Fish Song staring at them with her big bright eyes, and she was wearing a small hairpin in the shape of a fish on her hair. She looked curiously at the two people who were hugging each other. The two of them separated from each other quickly. Fade coughed twice and said, "Nothing, we are not doing anything." Mindy wiped the tears at the corners of her eyes and said, "Fish, you are a good girl. What were you doing at the playground just now?" "I enjoyed myself. There was a merry-go-round, and there was this strange fish which was very big. It had a big mouth and big eyes.." Fish Song said in a childish manner, and she gesticulated in a dramatic manner. Her sweet manner caused Mindy's mood to improve, and she started to smile again. At this moment, she glanced toward the cafe. She picked Fish up and said, "Fish, Mummy will give you another name, is that alright?" "Why do you want to change my name?" The little girl asked in confusion. "Isn't 'Fish' a good name?"she continued. "Fish is a good name! I just want to call you Fish Wu,is that alright?" Mindy asked. The little girl muttered to herself, "Fish Song, Fish Wu, both names are called Fish. Mom's surname is Wu, grandpa's surname is Wu. Yes, I want to call myself Fish Wu, just like my mom and my grandpa." "Good, good girl! Mom will bring you to change your name right now!" Mindy said. Then, she glanced at Fade. She nodded gratefully and said, "Fade, thank you for your help today." Fade looked at the smile on Mindy's face and realized that she had finally let go of her ex-husband. He nodded and said, "Sister Mindy, you're too polite. If you need any help in the future, just let me know." "Don't worry, I will ask you if I need your help," Mindy said with a smile. The little girl also turned her head and said loudly to Fade, "Brother Superman, Fish will ask you for help too." "Alright, once Fish asks me for help. I'll be there immediately !" Fade said, and he waved his hand with a smile, saying farewell to the both of them.
Chapter 251 After saying goodbye to Mindy Wu, Fade looked at the time. It was almost lunch, so he drove back to the company and was planning to have lunch in the canteen. When he drove the car to the entrance of the company, he suddenly saw his wife Quin Lin standing at the entrance. He was ready to lower the window down and say hello. But before Fade could do so, he saw a young blonde foreigner over 1.85 meters tall walking towards Quin with a smile on his face. His fist clenched tight unknowingly as he gulped. He didn't even care that his car was parked at the company's entrance and quickly stopped the car. He got down in a hurry and headed towards Quin. At this moment, the blonde hunk was already standing beside her asking, "Quin, can I.." Quin's expression hardened as she interjected whatever the blonde foreigner had to say. Sounding apologetic, she said, Klaude, I'm sorry. I can't agree to your request." Fade approached the man and could not help but think of the guy who called Quin last night. He narrowed his eyes slightly and looked at the foreigner warily. "Quin, what happened? Is this guy bothering you?" Fade rushed to Quin's side and stood in front of her like a human shield. He glared at the blonde haired foreigner with an unfriendly look "Fade, you're here." Quin looked at him in surprise as he had suddenly appeared. Upon hearing Fade's name, Klaude the foreigner reached out his hand and said with a smile. "You are Mr. Chen, Quin's fiance right! Nice to meet you." know you." Fade's unease and suspicion grew seeing Klaude act so courteous and polite. He snapped back coldly, "I don't think I Klaude paused briefly, then said apologetically, "I'm sorry. I should have introduced myself first." "I'm Klaude, from Micova. I was Qiun's friend back in the days when we were in Micovia studying." Klaude introduced himself politely. Fade had no intention of shaking hands with Klaude. Instead, he grabbed his wife's hand and immediately said, "Mr. Klaude, it's lunchtime. I'm going to have lunch with my wife, please excuse us." Then, he took Quin's hand and walked into the company. Klaude was slightly taken aback by Fade's actions. He paused for a moment, then stretched out his hand and shouted, "Mr. Chen, Quin, please wait a minute." Fade turned back in vigilance, even rolling up his sleeves to show that he was ready for a fight anytime. Quin also frowned slightly and said unhappily, "Klaude, I've already said that I'm not going to agree to the matter regarding the Life Elixir Wine." Klaude waved his hand and said with a smile, "Quin, I was not going to talk about the Life Elixir Wine right now. In fact, I was just going to give you this." As he spoke, he took out an exquisite invitation card and handed it to Quin Quin looked at the invitation card with a puzzled look on her face, to which Klaude immediately explained, "Quin, this is an invitation to the business party held by our Micova embassy. Many local and Micovian businesses will be attending. I think that it will be very useful for the Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc to come." After listening to Klaude's explanation, Quin felt a little embarrassed for her overreaction. She apologized, "Klaude, I'm sorry. Just now, I.." Klaude smiled and waved his hand, then said, "It's fine. Quin, I'm your friend. I won't mind." "You and your husband are going to have lunch, aren't you? In that case, I won't disturb you anymore. Goodbye!" He immediately waved them goodbye and left. In general, Klaude's behavior was quite polite and he looked like a very good person. However, Fade was still unnerved and uncomfortable, possibly because of the word "baby" that he had overheard on the phone last night. Quin put away the invitation card and then went upstairs with Fade. He immediately asked, "Dear, the matter regarding the Life Elixir Wine is... Quin explained, "Klaude's family is behind the Keele Corporation, which is the largest beverage company in the world. They came to me when they heard about the Life Elixir Wine somewhere, and said that they wanted to buy the formula to the Life Elixir Wine. I rejected him though!" "Oh, I see!" Fade nodded and felt relieved. Then he asked hesitantly again, "Then about this banquet, you.." She softly explained, "There are many international and local businessmen attending the banquet. This is a very good opportunity for our Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc." Fade immediately replied, "Dear, then I'll go with you." How could Quin not understand his thoughts? She rolled her eyes at him and said, "Okay, get ready in the meantime then. The banquet will be held tomorrow night." Fade nodded as he grabbed hold of Quin's hand and said cheerfully, "Dear, I'm hungry. Come on, let's go and have lunch!" Recently, Quin had gotten used to the slight intimacy she had with Fade. Looking at his figure beside her, all of a sudden she realized that she was at the company and not at home. Instantly, she quickly pulled her hand away and took a step back, before trying to excuse herself, "We're the company now, so be aware. Go ahead and have lunch first, don't wait for me!" Seeing the seriousness in her eyes, Fade couldn't do anything except to let go of her delicate hands. Then, he turned around and went to have lunch. Soon, the night of the banquet arrived. Fade had dressed smartly in a suit, while Quin was wearing a light blue gown. Both of them drove to the venue together. An hour later, the car stopped in front of an old building. The building was two stories tall, surrounded by red brick walls covered with grape ivy. There were lush green trees surrounding the building and the whole place looked quiet and serene. This was a rare sight because the house was located right between the two most bustling areas in town, and was clan in the center of Bay City. To be able to find such a peaceful place was quite difficult. Despite looking worn out, the building's value could not be measured by its appearance. A few years back, this place was once Micovia's embassy here. After it was relocated, the municipal government had taken back this building and made it a national artifact. Just these conditions would render ordinary people unable to enter this place easily. But now, Klaude had managed to gain access to this place for the banquet, which showed how powerful he really was. Fade and Quin walked side by side with a smile on their faces into the place. At the entrance of the building, Klaude stood at the entrance cheerfully to welcome the guests. When he saw that they arrived, he had a warm smile on his face. He immediately spread out his arms and was prepared to give Quin a hug. When Fade saw this, the corners of his eyes could not help but twitch in annoyance. He was afraid that this Klaude would welcome his wife in a Western style and plant a kiss on her face.
thank you for updating regularly. Appreciate it. Looking forward to next few chapters!
Chapter 252 Fade took a step forward and took Klaude's hand first. He patted him on the shoulders and greeted him politely, "Hello!" While talking and laughing, he deliberately moved his face closer to Klaude's as though ready to give him a greeting kiss. Klaude took a step back and quickly rejected. Then, he reached out his arm and welcomed Fade and Quin into the venue with a smile on his face. The minute they walked in, the smile on his face quickly disappeared. His skin on his right hand had turned an abnormal shade of red. He bent down and squealed in pain while clasping his swollen hand. A servant quickly came over and said, "Mr. Klaude, do you need me to call a doctor?" Klaude shook his head and said, "There's no need. Watch out for Fade Chen and Quin Lin. I don't want to drag the Life Elixir Wine project for too long." "Understood. I'll act according to plan," the servant said as he left the room. Klaude turned and watched coldly as Fade and Quin slowly disappeared from his sight. As they walked into the hall, Quin could not help herself but gently pinch Fade's arm while chastising, "Why did you use so much force while shaking your hand just now? Klaude's hand must be burning with pain now." "No I didn't, I just used a little strength," Fade tried to give an excuse. Quin sighed but her hands were tied, so she could only softly remind him, There are a lot of international businessmen at the party today. Control yourself please and don't do anything stupid." "Yes, dear, I'll definitely keep that in mind." Fade Chen tipped his head in salutation to Quin, turning the heads of many guests around them. Quin blushed in response. She quickly took hold of Fades hand, pulled him aside and said, "Stop fooling around. I've run into some friends and I'm going to have a chat with them. Do you want to come along?" "No, I'll go grab something to eat there." He shook his head in a hurry. He was pretty sure that whatever his wife was going to talk about was related to business, something he had zero interest in. Therefore, he escaped as soon as he saw the chance and started enjoying some food aside. From time to time, he looked at his wife and saw her talking and laughing with the businessmen, seemingly having a wonderful discussion. Fade was glad since Klaude wasn't making a move, not even appearing in front of them. He was relieved. At this moment, the clock struck eight and the lights in the hall were dimmed. The main stage was lit by a spotlight, and Klaude walked out with a smile. Immediately, the hall was filled with applause. After giving a short welcoming speech, the banquet officially started. Fade had no interest in these cumbersome procedures and was ready to hide in a corner to enjoy some personal time with himself. But just at this moment, he saw a man in his thirties with a pair of gold-rimmed glasses standing next to Klaude. "Isn't this Boris Song? Why is he here?" Fade was shocked as he recognized the man as Mindy Wu's ex-husband, Boris Song. Moreover, Boris was accompanied by a woman about in her early twenties. He was chatting softly with the woman with a broad smile on his face, even pointing towards the crowd as though he was showing her off proudly. Seeing this, Fade couldn't help but mutter under his breath, "Boris Song is really a hypocritical guy. Yesterday, he came tumbling back to Mindy and even pleaded to start things over with her. Yet, he's already cheated on her with other women." Since Mindy was already completely over this guy, Fade was too lazy to bother. The official start to the banquet left everyone in an even more heated up. Everyone seemed to be a good mood as they were chatting away politely, some seemingly indoctrinated from the excitement and already signing contracts to collaborate. Fade remained uninterested as he grabbed a plate of food and headed towards the balcony. He had preferred to eat by himself whilst enjoying the cool evening breeze, Just as he was going to dig in he suddenly heard a woman's voice cry out, "No, don't let go of me." towards the sound. "Is there someone who's already making their move impatiently?" He immediately frowned and walked quietly toward the sound. The Western-style balcony was specifically designed to be large and luxurious, huge stone pillars adorning the sides of the balcony. When Fade walked past the stone pillar, he could see the whole scene unfold in front of him clearly. A foreigner in his fifties was betrayed and had forced a petite Chinese woman to a dark corner. At the moment, he had his big, furry arm out and was trying to grope the poor woman. The woman's face was full of anxiety as she desperately tried to break free of the foreigner's iron grasp. Her effort was of no avail as he was much stronger and larger than her. He lunged towards her despite her resistance, and she looked troubled while she cried out, "Let me go, I don't want this!" "Beauty, it's okay. If you follow me, I will give you whatever you want, be it money, jobs, or the green card to the Micovia. I can help you." The foreigner scootched closer to the woman and tempted her. However, she resisted fiercely and continued to sob, "No, I don't want any of those. Mr. Mike, I'm not that kind of woman. Please let me go, I don't want this." Seeing as he was about to succeed, the foreigner didn't let go of the woman and leaned towards her, one hand slowly reaching for her clothes. The woman was visibly terrified as she tried to shout for help, "Senior Song, I don't want this, please ask Mr. Mike to stop. Senior Song, help me!" It was only then that Fade noticed that this woman was the one who came with Boris Song. Boris had been standing at the other side of the pillar and silently watching everything. From his angle, he could obviously see what the foreigner was trying to do, but he made no effort to stop him. Upon hearing the woman's desperate cries for help, not only did he not help, instead he tried to persuade her sneakily, "Willa, don't you understand? I'm giving you an opportunity! You have to cherish it!" "No, senior, I don't want it." The woman continued to cry out. Boris chuckled and said, "Willa, everything's fine, you just have to accompany Mr. Mike for a while. Don't you know how much authority he has in Micovia? To be with him like this is a blessing in disguise for you!" "Beauty, just give in to me. If you do, I'll give you a job in Micovia and even help you process the green card documents to live in Micovia permanently." Mike began to tempt her with all kinds of conditions, However, she continued to resist fiercely and said, "No, I'm not going to Micovia. I don't want a green card. I don't..." Hearing this, Boris was annoyed and snapped, "Willa, don't be ungrateful. Mr. Mike is a Micovian, and you should be grateful to be able to sleep with him. Do you understand?"
Chapter 253 The girl could only attempt to struggle, but her efforts were futile. Boris Song sneered and said, "Willa, yes, that's it. Treat Mr. Mike properly and 'll be sure to reward your efforts later." As he spoke, a cold smirk appeared on the corner of his face and he leisurely stood aside, seemingly prepared to keep all this under the table. Upon seeing this, Fade's gaze sharpened and he unleashed the fury within. He stormed towards them and grabbed Mike by the collar, pulling him away from the vulnerable woman. Before anyone could react, he whipped his hand out and started slapping Mike's face multiple times. "Slap, slap, slap!" A series of loud slaps rung in the air and Mike's face was swollen. Boris muttered to himself upon hearing the sounds behind him. I never expected that a fifty-year old person like Mike would be so aggressive. That's such a loud ruckus he's making, could it be that he's on some sort of drug?" "After making Mike satisfied, my job and status is basically more secure than ever. Things will only get better for me here onwards, haha!" He was deeply immersed in his imagination for his bright future that he didn't notice Fade. It was only until he heard the screams of Mike calling for help did he realize that something was wrong. "Does Mike have some sort of fetish?" Boris thought to himself and secretly turned around to see what was going on. The scene that was imprinted on his eyes left him dumbfounded. Mike wasn't the one playing around, he was the one being played instead. He was lifted off his feet and was dangling in the air helplessly while being slapped simultaneously across his face. His cheeks were already swollen beyond recognition, and the rest of his body was no better either. The woman who barely managed to escape had turned on him and started kicking him furiously, leaving footprints and small holes from her high heels on his clothes. After being shocked momentarily, Boris returned to his senses and rushed towards the trio angrily while shouting at the top of his lungs, "What are you doing? Put Mr. Mike down." Fade snorted coldly and glared at Boris. Then, he said, "I'm the one who's supposed to ask questions here. What the hell are you doing? Not only are you trying to use your junior as a bargaining chip, you even watched as she was being violated with no intent to help! What kind of human being are you?" His words were like an alarm bell that woke Boris up and rung in his ears wildly. In particular, he was utterly shook when he saw that the assailant was Fade Chen. His eyes widened and he mumbled, "It's you? How can this.." Fade just snorted and gave Boris a kick that sent him sprawling on the ground. Then he asked coldly, "I'l ask you again, what are you doing?" Judging by his current situation, he knew that he didn't stand a chance against Fade, especially when Mike was already half conscious. An idea popped up in his head and he quickly shouted, "Help! There's a physical brawl going on here, somebody come help!" In truth, the initial sounds had already alarmed everyone on top of Boris' screams. Everyone rushed to see what was going on The scene of the one sided fight caused a heated discussion and left fingers pointing judgmentally at Fade. Mike and Boris were both recognized names amongst the crowd. However, not many people knew of Fade Chen and Willa Lu, which led people to think that they were the ones who started the fight. "Someone's fighting? Mr. Mike was badly beaten." "Who is that young man? Fighting in such an occasion, doesn't he know that this will lead to diplomatic problems!" "Annoying. I can't believe he interrupted me in the middle of important business. Damn it." Amidst the discussion, Quin Lin and Klaude also walked over. The minute Boris saw Klaude, he quickly ran over and knelt in front of Klaude while telling on Fade, "Mr. Klaude, you have to help me!" "Mr. Mike was beaten by this guy for no reason, and he even attacked me. Please do something, Mr. Klaude!" The half-conscious Mike who heard Klaude's name added in weakly, "Klaude, avenge me. Klaude's gaze fell upon Fade while the focus of the crowd was on him. Evidently, he was the main star of the show tonight. At this time, Quin Lin, who had a puzzled look on her face, also nudged secretively at Fade. She glanced at him and her mouth moved as she was about to ask what had happened. But when she saw the angry and serious expression on Fade's face, she said nothing but knew that she trusted him completely. She nodded and said, "I support your decision." Fade was relieved and felt thankful that Quin was so supportive of him. Then, he beckoned Willa, who was already scared out of her wits. Klaude was momentarily silent as he tried to think of excuses to put the blame on Fade. After a while, he looked towards Fade and said, "Mr. Chen, Mr. Boris Song is my subordinate and he is also my friend. On the other hand, Mr. Mike is an important business partner that I specially invited from Micovia. I would like to ask you to give me an explanation for why you beat him up for no reason." Fade sneered and said, "No reason? When have you ever seen me beat someone up for no reason?" Klaude was taken aback. His expression was slightly stifled but he still restrained himself and said, "If it isn't for no reason, then I hope to hear a reasonable explanation from Mr. Chen." "Reasonable explanation! How about rape and assault? Is that a reasonable explanation?" Fade's eyes darkened and he shouted coldly. His words caused a scene as many people started chattering and glancing at Willa. Klaude's expression wasn't looking very good. He couldn't say anything to refute Fade, so he winked at Boris. Boris understood his signal and started to complain, "Nonsense, this is completely nonsense. Mr. Mike and would never do such vulgar things. You're accusing us of something we would never do. What are you up to?" Mike also added in and denied, "Yes, it's impossible for me to do such a thing. I'm from Micovia, how could I stoop so low and attempt to rape her?" Willa listened to the shameless remarks of the two men and was infuriated. Eyes swollen red from the crying, she said, "You, you both are shameless. You tricked me here just now and assaulted me yet now you deny any of it." "Willa, although I am your senior, if you continue to accuse us, I will sue you." Boris threatened menacingly. "I'll sue too!" said Mike immediately. Klaude also chose this moment to add on, "Miss Lu, you'd better think about it clearly. Mr. Mike is the director of the biggest flour processing company in Micovia, Marleen Company. His reputation is very important." "Mr. Song is also a green card holder of Micovia. At the same time, he also represents the Keele Corporation's reputation. If you lie, Miss Lu, the Marleen Company and Keele Corporation will retain the right to press further charges."
Chapter 254 "I didn't, you.." Willa Lu was so agitated at their shameless behavior that she burst into tears. Fade Chen patted her shoulder gently as a sign of comfort before turning to glare at Boris Song and Mike. His sharp gaze passed over them then landed on Klaude while he sighed heavily in disappointment, saying, "Well, I finally see your true colours today" "First, there were two scumbags who didn't dare to admit their mistakes and even tried to talk their way out of it. To make matters worse, I can't believe that there's someone who's worse than them. Even before the matter has been cleared up, this person has been trying to find excuses for his companions to get away with it! How despicable." Fade didn't hold back and started criticizing them sharply. Upon hearing this, the three men's expressions darkened and they were visibly upset. Klaude cleared his throat and remarked unhappily, "Mr. Chen, I will remember what you said. If this was brought to court, you will be convicted of intentional slander and will have to pay the price for it." "Trying to use legal terms on me?" Fade sneered. Following that, he took out his phone and showed everyone the video that he had recorded beforehand, "Why don't you enlighten me on the legal responsibilities you will have to bear after seeing this?" As soon as the video was shown, everyone's eyes widened in disbelief and disgust. Particularly, Boris and Mike's faces immediately turned deathly pale. Klaude remained silent. Even though he had just arrived here, he knew that such behaviour was unacceptable and would be severely punished. If they really chose to bring this matter to court, Mike and Boris would stand no chance to escape free-of-charge. The Keele Corporation's reputation would also be heavily damaged. The guests couldn't help but judge them heavily. Many who once thought positively of Mike and Boris were now covering their mouths in shock. They had never expected the two of them to commit such atrocities. Quin glanced at the video and knew why Fade was so angry. She couldn't imagine what he had felt upon witnessing the monstrosity that was about to happen; she herself was already extremely disgusted by them. Her rationale was the only thing holding her back from beating Boris and Mike up. She turned to look at Willa, who was still shaking from the fear. Quin put her hand around her shoulders and gently comforted her, "Don't be scared, we'll do anything we can to help you expose those bastards. They won't be able to escape the sanctions of law anytime soon." Klaude who looked deep in thought secretly winked at Boris and Mike. Like an exceptional drama queen, Boris' expression changed and he knelt on the ground begging for mercy, I'm sorry, it's all our fault. Mr. Mike and I drank too much and we got a little drunk. That's why something like this happened." Mike quickly nodded and agreed, "Yes, yes. We drank too much and couldn't think straight, that's why we accidentally hurt Miss Lu." The two of them apologized and begged for mercy. Klaude took this moment to stand up as though he was trying to mediate the argument and said, "Miss Lu, Boris and Mr. Mike made a mistake, but I believe that they didn't mean it. Miss Lu, can you give them another chance?" "If Miss Lu is so willing to forgive us, I am willing to offer you a chance to work at the Keele Corporation's headquarters in Microvia. Please think about it." Hearing what Klaude said, Mike quickly added, "The Marleen Company is also willing to provide compensations. Miss Lu, we really didn't mean it." As the truth had been exposed with no way to cover it up properly, they tried to buy Willa's silence by offering her fame and fortune She bit her lip, shook her head and said firmly, "I don't want your compensation. I want to sue them and let them pay the price they deserve." As soon as she said this, the trio's expression didn't look well and their fists clenched tightly in frustration. Klaude took a deep breath, forced a smile and tried to bargain, "Miss Lu, if you are unhappy with the conditions we have offered, we are willing to negotiate them. Such a small issue..." "Small issue?" Fade scoffed as he interrupted Klaude rudely He glared sharply at them as though he was trying to prick their conscience and said, "When Willa had told the truth just now, you guys didn't admit it and even tried to accuse her of lying and tarnishing your reputation. After being exposed and caught red-handed, you try to dismiss the assault and attempted rape as a "small issue"?" "Mr. Klaus, is this your so-called "work ethics" in Microvia?" Fade questioned. Klaude could feel everyone's eyes on his every move. He gulped and clenched his teeth while dismissing Fade's claim, "This has nothing to do with my company or my country. I'm just trying to help my friends Boris and Mike obtain forgiveness from Miss Lu." "Forgiveness?" Fade snorted. "However, Miss Lu has expressed no intention of forgiving them and wants to sue them in court instead. What are you going to do now?" Klaude's face darkened, anger flashing through his eyes. Mike held a position that was similar to his own. He had come to China on behalf of Klaude's invitation. If anything happened to him, Keele Corporation and Marleen corporation would definitely be affected greatly. Thus, in any case, he had to keep Mike safe. As for Boris, although he was only Klaude's subordinate, he was fundamentally Chinese. Therefore, he was well equipped with knowledge regarding Bay City, and was going to play a big part in his business schemes here in Bay City. Hence, he had to ensure Boris' safety as well. The thought of this made Klaude frown and he snorted as he announced his decision, "Since you are unwilling to come to a truce, I will have no choice but turn to my legal administrators for help." As he spoke, he looked and Boris and Mike then back at Fade, "I will have my family send out the Keele Corporation's exclusive and top notch lawyers to be in charge of this case." "To them, this would be a piece of cake. After all, someone probably seduced them and tried to push the blame to them now." As soon as Klaude said that, Willa started to sob again out of the anger and frustration. Evan Quinn who was quite close to Klaude looked at him in disbelief. She pointed at him angrily and said, "Klaude, how could you? You're just trying to cover the truth up now!" Klaude smiled apologetically and bowed to Quin while replying, "Quin, I'm really sorry. This matter concerns my pride as a Micovian, so I have to treat this seriously. Moreover, there may be more than meets the eye. We can't just come to a conclusion easily just by looking at a video." "Klaude, you.." At this moment, Quin was more speechless towards his shamelessness. Never would she expect him to be so brazen. Boris and Mike were reminded by Klaude and immediately started to argue back. "Mr. Klaude is right. We were wrongly accused." "This whole thing was set up by that woman." The two of them pointed at Willa and started to accuse her of various things.
any update today? thanks
Yes, definitely
Chapter 255 Klaude asked in surprise, "Boris, Mike, what's going on?" Boris Song thought of something and he began to spout nonsense, "Willa is actually a graduate student of Bay City University. She majored in food science and technology, and she is my junior." "This afternoon, I went to my university to visit my former teacher and discussed about my current situation. This woman was envious when she heard that I worked for Keele Corporation and received the Green Card from Micovia, so she tried to get close to me." "Later, she heard that I would come to this dinner, so she pestered me and asked me to bring her here. I didn't want to agree at first, but my teacher asked me to bring her.! couldn't refuse, so I brought her here." "After the party started, I introduced her to Mike. When she heard that he was an executive working for the Mars Company, she wanted to work for his company and follow him to Micovia." As he spoke to this point, Boris glanced at Mike. Mike said immediately. "Yes, he's right. At first, I greeted her politely. I didn't expect her to pester me. She said that she wanted to inquire about Micovia, and she told me that she was preparing to study there next year." "She asked me to come to the balcony. When I was distracted, she threw herself directly into my arms and shouted for help. She was trying to slander me," Mike said. At this moment, when Willa Lu heard their words, she was anxious and angry. She cried and said, "No, that's not the truth, I didn't." Klaude did not give Willa any chance to speak at all. He said coldly, "Miss Lu, we shall wait for the lawyers of Keele Corporation to arrive. Then, you can explain your side of the story to them." Willa was instantly frightened. She was just a student who was still in school. Boris had returned to the university, and she had attended the banquet because of him. However, it was Boris who had taken the initiative to bring her here. Mike was inappropriate to her as soon as she came to the balcony. Now, they had completely jumbled up the facts and even blamed her for the situation. They had status and authority, so she was completely panicked and didn't know what to do. Witnessing this, Klaude's eyes flashed in satisfaction. He leaned his body slightly to one side and discreetly gave a look to the people around him. Immediately, many guests and businessmen who surrounded them stood up at the moment. Many of them were Chinese. They began to give advice to Willa, acting like they were concerned. "Willa, the lawyers working for Keele Corporation are not to be messed with. You'd better not lie, otherwise, you'll be in trouble." "Yes, I remember that two years ago, someone scolded Keele Corporation, and they sued him. Finally, he was sentenced to three years in jail!" "The lawyers of Micovia are to be taken seriously. If you really go to court, you will be punished, and there will be no chance for you to change the outcome." Several people threatened Willa, and others pretended to be concerned. They came to Willa's side and tried to advise her. "Willa, you are young and you are still in school. You don't know what society is like. In fact, this is so common, and there is really nothing to it. You think too much." "Yes, Willa, when I first started work, I also encountered this type of thing. At that time, I was frightened, but later, my boss just said that he was making fun of me. I was thinking too much about the situation." "Speaking of that, Willa, this is a great opportunity for you! Think about it, the terms proposed by Mr. Klaude and Mr. Mike just now are absolutely generous!" "Yeah, it's a chance to work for Keele Corporation or Mars Company. These are large international companies! What's more, you will have the opportunity to receive the Green Card from Micovia. It's such good fortune indeed." "Yes, yes. The Green Card of Micovia. People all over the world are fighting for it! Especially in recent years, Microvia has tightened the immigration rules. Even people like me, who have invested tens of millions of dollars there, have difficulty in applying for the Green Card. How precious that you have this opportunity now!" "Willa, to be honest, didn't Mike fail to seduce you? It doesn't matter. Even if he had succeeded, it's still a good opportunity for you. If you really become pregnant with his child, then you can go directly to Micovia and become a permanent resident of Micovia. That will be much better than a green card!" "So, Willa, it's not a big deal. You're just a little bit nervous because you have too little experience in socializing." Willa felt dizzy as she heard the advice of these so-called successful businessmen around her. At this moment, Fade's face turned green with rage. If Klaude, Mike and Boris were considered shameless and cunning, one could still argue that they had their reasons for their actions. But this group of businessmen not only did not speak up for Willa, but they tried their best to influence her. They claimed that Micovia was amazing and that it was wonderful to receive the green card of Micovia. For them, becoming a citizen of Micovia was like entering heaven. This caused Fade to feel disgusted and angry. "Shut up!" With an angry roar, Fade interrupted them and said in a cold voice, "All of you love Micovia and are willing to be servants for them. If you want to sleep with someone for citizenship it's your own business. Don't talk nonsense in a shameless manner here. Your words are insufferable." After being scolded by Fade, these people's faces suddenly fell and they said unhappily, "Who are you? Who are you to say such things to us?" "He's my husband!" Quin Lin stood up, and she glared at this group of people with her eyes full of anger. Several people were stunned. They didn't expect Fade to be Quin's husband. They were instantly shocked and their expressions darkened. But soon, a middle-aged woman retorted, "So what if he is your husband? Even you, Quin, can't talk to us in this manner!" "That's right. Don't think so highly of yourself just because you've expanded your business recently. My company is not at Bay City, so i'm not afraid of you at all," said a merchant. "Quin, you should apologize right now. Otherwise, the collaboration between my company and Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc will not continue in the future." A businessman threatened. "Yes, please apologize. She needs to apologize, and also her husband! Otherwise, we will all terminate our collaborations with Fei Enterprises Holdings Inc." A businesswoman yelled. "Yes, we shall terminate our collaborations!" At this moment, this group of people threatened Quin in unison. When he thought of their attitude toward Willa just now when she was bullied, he had to admit that it was an ironic situation, and it was indeed ridiculous. They had assisted foreigners to bully their own people, and they still seemed so self-righteous!
