The Villain's Wife Chapter 777 Karma that She Deserves

Chapter 777 Karma that She Deserves

When Lily arrived in her office, her mind was already in turmoil. Possibilities and assumptions swirled inside her like a tumultuous storm. Lily sat on her swivel chair as Zhou Dae Un started telling her stories about her own pregnancy as if nothing happened. This was of course, not enough to distract Lily from her own thinking.
After a few minutes of Zhou Dae Un talking, Lily excused herself to see her brother in his computer room.
"Did something happen?" Qin Yuanfeng asked Lily when he noticed her lock the door behind her.
In response, Lily narrowed her eyes on him. "You knew."
"Knew what?"
"You are a good actor." Lily sat next to him. At first, she never thought anything was unusual about Qin Yuanfeng's behavior. After all, it was normal for someone like him to forget his sleep. Huge eye bags should be a part of their fashion statement. Or so that's what the movies about the hackers had told her.
However, after Zhou Dae Un told her about the reason why she was here, Lily immediately concluded that her own brother knew something about it. "Don't worry. I am not mad." To be honest, she was not that surprised that Qin Yuanfeng would choose not to tell her. Just like Zhou Dae Un, they understood the ramifications of making Lily worry about something like this. Or at least she was smart enough to know that Zhou Jingren told them not to tell her. He must have told them that he wanted to personally tell Lily about it.
Qin Yuanfeng stared at Lily for a few seconds. "What would you like to know?"
"Nothing." Lily uttered. She only wanted to confirm her suspicions. Just like Zhou Dae Un, Qin Yuanfeng was not with Zhou Jingren during the accident. There was no way that he could tell Lily all the details. Moreover, she also trusted Zhou Jingren's process. "I just came here to confirm something and I got it." She stood from her seat and left the room without any other words. She could not wait to see her own husband.

Hong Kong, Unknown Street.
"President, a woman is blocking our way."
"A woman?" Zhou Jingren immediately narrowed his eyes.
"It is Miss Su." Secretary Go clarified. "She insists that she wants to speak with you."
Zhou Jingren pursed his lips. They were already a few blocks away from Zhou Capital, Su Mingyu must have been waiting for him since morning. However, blocking his way is just too bold for a woman like her. Zhou Jingren snorted. "Can she be seen in the CCTV's?"
"Yes president."
"Good. Then let her follow us to Zhou Capital. Asked someone to send the recording of the CCTV's to Lily for documentation purposes. Don't let that Su Mingyu ride the executive elevator. Have two guards accompany her while she is inside the building." He could not wait to know what type of scheme this woman wanted to do now. "Also… ask Yuanfeng to access all the camera's in my office. Give him the access codes. Record everything, including our conversations."
"Understood." Secretary Go nodded as he sighed inwardly. Su Mingyu… must have been itching to avenge her family members. However, it was futile. Zhou Jingren was going to stop everything that could possibly endanger Lily and their child. Even if that meant becoming the monster he once was.
When Zhou Jingren arrived at Zhou Capital, he immediately went to his office while Su Mingyu had to use the employee's elevator, walking inside the building full of people. Contrary to her expectations, Zhou Jingren did not make her arrival a secret. Was it possible that he was not afraid that she would reveal the news to the media? Su Mingyu gritted her teeth as she watched the numbers in the elevator rise. She could not wait to reveal everything to the media.
Since Lily dared to intimidate her and her lawyers, Su Mingyu was going to ruin that woman's name in the process too. An eerie smile slithered on to her lips. Just like how Zhou Jingren had ruined her family, she too would ruin Zhou Jingren and Lily's marriage. She tightened her hands on her long coat that covered the already tattered clothes beneath it.
If she was lucky today, Zhou Jingren might just let her inside his office later. Su Mingyu continued walking until she arrived on the floor in which Zhou Jingren's office was located. She hung her head down, trying to hide the small smirk on her lips as she listened to the guards knock on Zhou Jingren's glass doors. When Secretary Go let them inside, Su Mingyu couldn't help but feel the acceleration of her heart beat. She jumped in happiness inwardly.
Finally, she thought.
"You are here without your lawyers? Aren't you afraid?" Zhou Jingren's warm voice reached her ears. She raised her head and eyed his handsome face.
"I am," she tried to make her own voice quiver, trying to show how much she feared him. "But… I heard… that President Zhou is looking into my case lately." She had heard from her father that Zhou Jingren and his people were trying to dig into the past. This was one of the reasons why she was forced to reveal herself— she was afraid that Zhou Jingren would involve the people that had nothing to do with it.
"Is that so?"
She nodded, trying to hide the anger in her eyes. "This has nothing to do with —" she gulped and turned her gaze away.
"With?"
"President Zhou." She stood in front of him, her hands clenched. "Do you believe in Karma?"
"Did you come here to lecture me about Karma, Miss Su? If that is your goal, then let me tell you what I believe in." Zhou Jingren made a deliberate pause. "I believe that time is money. Losing my time while talking to you about your beliefs is… wasting money."
Su Mingyu stilled. She clenched her jaws. "Your wife… is supporting a company that does not treat its employee's well." She uttered. "She will soon get the karma that she deserves." And so will you, she thought inwardly.
And so will you.
