Chapter 426 Secret for Years
The moment Jiang Yue and Fu Jin arrived at the Kim Family's Mansion, the first thing they did was announce the change of ownership of the known Criminal Group.
Not even a day passed and the underworld was awoken with shocking news. Kim Empire was now named Moon Empire. The take over happened overnight and the once prosperous Kim Empire had been eliminated.
The new leader was known to be a man who was only in his twenties.
Many wanted to know the identity of the person who had successfully taken over Kim Empire. Yet no one was lucky enough to meet that man. Of course, there were rumors that the man was going to hold a banquet for everyone.
It was rumored that the man would even give diamonds as a present to the people who would attend the banquet.
What an extravagant gift!
That man should be very powerful to do such things.
The man was said to be very handsome and that tens of women were known to warm his bed every night.
What a lucky man!
He must be very good looking indeed!
"Pfft." Jiang Yue instantly laughed at Bei Ye's report. "Who made up all of that? I can't help but applaud their creativity..."
"It's the news, spreading on the streets of Emerald Country." Bei Ye answered.
"Good. Continue spreading this news," she said before she gestured Bei Ye to leave her. Fu Jin was still busy with the new business that they had acquired. While she was busy planning on monitoring the whole Emerald Country.
Jiang Yue had been checking out the streets of the most crowded city in Emerald Country for a sign of her father's Organization, yet she always ended up empty-handed.
It was as if the man was deliberately hiding from Jiang Yue.
However, she was far from losing hope. In fact, spreading all these rumors was Jiang Yue's plan. She wanted everyone to know that someone else was already running Kim Empire in hopes that it would reach her father.
Kim Empire was especially known for its diamond trading in the underworld. Because of that, they were one of the most respected organizations in the black market. Moreover, they were also involved in illegal firearms trading.
So, when the Kim Family was obliterated overnight, many people instantly focused their attention on the family's businesses. Most organizations wanted to acquire their business. Hence, the news that somebody had already acquired it in the shortest time possible was indeed very shocking.
She wanted that news to reach her father and the Vercello Family as soon as possible. After all, it was her only way to attract the attention of both Organizations.
"Miss… Miss… we have received a piece of big news." Jiang Yue's thoughts had been interrupted by Bei Ye's words.
"What's wrong?" She frowned, as her gaze turned serious.
"The Li Family has been eliminated."
"What?"
"Yes… our people told us that more than fifty men in black have burned the estate and killed everyone."
"Were they able to identify them?"
"No. Unfortunately, they did not wear anything that could help us to identify them." Bei Ye answered.
Jiang Yue nodded at his words. This was only expected. It only meant that whoever did that, was very capable and experienced. "Tell Bai'Li to send me the video from the drone."
She was going to use the Li Family against the Vercello Family. However, it seemed that the Vercellos already silenced them in advance. "How cruel," she said in a tone that was too low for Bei Ye to hear.
"One more thing," she said. "Call Wang Bolin... I need to talk to him in the study room." Jiang Yue said before walking towards the study room of the mansion.
It was only the second day after they arrived at the Mansion of the Kim Family, yet, she already wanted to settle everything with Wang Bolin.
After all, if she wanted to know more about the Vercello Family, he would be the best person to talk to.
"Young Miss… have you called for me?" Wang Bolin asked after giving her a bow.
"Wang Bolin… how long have you been serving the Wang Family?" Jiang Yue asked before giving him a smile.
"Thirty years," he answered shortly.
"Would it be safe to assume that your loyalty already lies with the Wang Family? To be more specific… with my mother?"
Wang Bolin instantly raised his head and stared at Jiang Yue after he heard her words. "Yes, Young Miss." He nodded, his gaze never leaving Jiang Yue's face.
For some reason, Wang Bolin felt an extreme discomfort as he stared at the smile on Jiang Yue's face. He couldn't seem to shake off the feeling that Jiang Yue was aware of something.
Something that he had been keeping as a secret for years now.
