The CEO's Woman Chapter 362 Loathe

Chapter 362 Loathe

After Jiang Yue left the palace, she directly went into another hotel and took off her disguise. Then, she used another one, which would make her blend in the streets before going to the hotel that Fu Jin had set.
"How was it?" Fu Jin asked her before passing a bottle of water to her.
"I have the recordings with me." She answered. "My mother should be in the West, trying to look for my father."
"Your father?"
"Yes. His name is Li Jun, he is Li Qiang's twin brother who was taken by the main Li Family and became the most outstanding man to succeed the throne. He was supposed to be the King of this country." She said before drinking some water. "He abandoned the Li Family when he chose to be with my mother. But I guess, Li Qiang told my mother about Li Jun's real identity, so she left him."
"At that time, Li Hong Yi, who was trained next to Li Jun, became the King and married Queen Ah-Joong from the Kim Family," she added.
"So, where is your father now?" He asked.
"Well, Gideon said that a few weeks ago he found some proofs that my mother was still alive and thought that the Vercello Family was keeping her captive," she answered. "So, he decided to follow her."
"You know, the only thing that is making me suspicious is why would he think that the Vercello Family has taken her. I mean… do they have a history of kidnapping their future matriarch? It doesn't make any sense to me." She shrugged. "However, I believe that my mother has found out about this and followed him. Now, both of them are in the West looking for each other."
Fu Jin sighed at her words. "So what are your plans now?"
"I am going to annihilate the Kim Family, then leave and find my parents at the West." She boldly declared.
"I thought you didn't want to search for someone who does not want to be found?"
"That was before Gideon told me about everything," she answered. "I realized that my mother was also a victim of this everything. She fell in love with a Li while she was supposed to be the next matriarch of the Vercello Family."
"When she discovered that she was pregnant with both Li and Vercello's bloodline, she must have feared that her child would be a part of the underworld in such a young age. I believe that it was the reason she ran away. She was afraid that someone from the Li or Vercello families would take me away from her."
"She might not be the best mother. But at the end of the day, there is a possibility that she has done everything to protect me." Jiang Yue let out a sigh. A mother was a mother no matter what happened their hearts would always have their child in it.
....
Meanwhile, Wang Ruo was sitting across Vlad, drinking a glass of vodka. "Did you find anything?" She asked.
"The Vercello Family did not get him," he answered. "However, I just heard about a mysterious man, who is now making a name in the underworld. If my guess is right, then that man may be Li Jun. I guess your man has established his own underworld den to be able to fight with the Vercello Family.
Wang Ruo just frowned at Vlad's word. Why would Li Jun do that? Did he really think that he could fight against them? However, at the same time, the thought of her man establishing an underworld empire for her was making her heart flutter.
She shook her head as she realized that she was still not immune to her feelings towards him.
"Another thing. I just heard this a while ago, before you came." Vlad took a sip of his own drink. "Your daughter is in M country and had the audacity to provoke the Queen from the Kim Family."
"What?" She hissed. "Who told you this?"
"My contacts in M Country… they said that the Kim Family found a strong backer. And is planning to cause a civil war soon, to change the leader of M Country." He answered. "It seems that a storm is brewing in M Country and your daughter is just at the center of it."
"If that is true, then I can only applaud both of your and your man's genes for creating such a specimen." Vlad let out a heartful laugh before drinking the alcohol in his hand.
Wang Ruo could only frown at her friend's words. Why would Jiang Yue go to M Country when she had repeatedly warned her not to? Did she discover something? Did she want to go to the country to find Li Jun?
Thinking about this made Wang Ruo a little confused. Jiang Yue should be mad at her for leaving. Was that Jiang Yue's way of getting back at her?
"I should say… stop overthinking." She heard Vlad mutter. "Your daughter is smart. She always analyzes everything. If my guess is right, she should have known that you don't want her to find you."
"It must have made her more curious about you and her father. And to satisfy her curiosity, she chose to go to M Country to look for answers," he added. "You really should have told her everything about you."
"And risk her hating me?" She asked.
"You are her mother. She will not hate you if you tell her the truth!" He refuted, his gaze serious. "You should have known that this would happen when you decided to leave and try to manipulate her emotions."
"She is not your average, stupid woman, she will figure out your identity sooner or later. It will be only better if you tell her the truth yourself," he added. "The sooner the better."
Wang Ruo let out a sigh after hearing Vlad's words. He was right. Now, she regretted her attempt to manipulate her daughter's emotions. If only she had the guts to tell her everything. She couldn't help but wonder what would Jiang Yue think if she knew what her mother had done?
Would she judge her? She imagined Jiang Yue's cunning eyes, staring straight into her soul. She would analyze her words like she always did with her enemies and would immediately hate her. Wang Ruo could not help but feel tears pool in her eyes as the thought of Jiang Yue loathing her crossed her mind.
'How weak,' she chastised herself. She could not break down now that her daughter needed her the most.
With these in mind, she got up from her seat. "I am going to protect my daughter. Please send me an update from time to time about this man from the underworld."
Vlad stared at her before he raised his glass and held it towards her. "Take care, Child."
