Chapter 594 - Blood On My Hands
"According to Mu Keer, Huang Li was pregnant before leaving with her brother. How are we to trust her words when we can't confirm from anyone if she is telling the truth or not?" Fu Hee asked.
Fu Lei said with an ugly facial expression, "That woman is evil, and she feels she can say anything she wants at any time because there is no one to confirm most of her words."
"Dad I agree with you, she is doing this intentionally because we can't find out the truth from sister-in-law's parents, and Sister-in-law doesn't know about this," YingPei responded.
"My sister never mentioned that she was pregnant before leaving the family." The first daughter of the Huang family said.
"She also didn't say anything to me?" Old Mrs. Huang said in tears.
Old Mr. Huang was annoyed in this situation because his family's name was at stake. "What if her husband is the biological father of Jia Li, and she is just making things up in other to get revenge and disorganize our families?."
Jia Li who has been pained and in tears glanced at her maternal grandfather and said, "Mr. Hang actually, my Aunt once said to me directly that I'm not my father's biological daughter."
Grandfather Fu didn't like seeing Jia Li in tears. She was still his favorite, and anything or anybody that makes her cry, he will always make sure to tackle it.
"There is no need to stress yourself. When we interrogate her, she will spill all the answers to the questions asked and are not asked." Grandfather Fu said.
What he meant was, by the time Mu Keer was being interrogated, she would spill a lot of truths without being asked, out of fear.
"Grandfather, why don't we lock up that woman and interrogate her immediately before she runs away?" Fu FangSu asked with a bitter expression on her face.
Fu Meixu added, "Yes, she has done more harm without any good, and she keeps getting away with it every time. It is time to get rid of her completely, we have been merciful to her for a long time."
"This time around, we won't spare her. Fu Hua, give me her address, the soldiers will go to that place and drag her out. Then they will lock her up somewhere until we finish with the tomb visit." Fu Lei said without a glance.
"It wouldn't be bad if she is thrown into the sea and fed to the sharks, no one will remember her existence." The first son of the Huang family said.
Everyone was still angry with Mu Keer for her comments and actions, and so they all agreed to deal with her. Of course, they were not going to let her and the instigators go scot-free.
Fu Hua's father, Fu Lei arranged for some soldiers to go and drag Mu Keer out of her house and lock her up, as they planned on how to deal with her after visiting the graveyard of Jia Li's parents thr next day.
Meanwhile, at Feng Alix's place, she was pacing up and down her living room
"What did you say is taking those lazy people a long time to edit a video and make it go rival? How hard is it?" She asked with a furious glance at Carlos.
Carlos who seemed tired of her bantering and disturbance replied, "I will speak to them tomorrow morning. They are supposed to release the video tomorrow, maybe they forgot to get back to me."
Alix flared up immediately, "How can they forget to notify you about such an important matter? These people are so lousy and don't take their work seriously."
"After all, you didn't pay them, so they are free to work at their own pace, and make decisions within themselves," Carlos said to her.
"What do you mean? I gave them a huge scoop of news, and you're telling me that I'm supposed to pay them? Does that make any sense to you?" Alix asked angrily.
Carlos sighed tiredly, he was already exhausted by being scolded by her.
"You showed someone an opportunity which will also be to your advantage. You didn't pay them to get it done when you want, so how do you expect them to do exactly what you want? You already handed the rights to do what they please with that information."
Alix glared at him before sitting on the couch with her arms folded. "Where on earth did you bring those kinds of stupid people from? They don't even know when to do the right thing."
Carlos didn't reply to her any further. He was already tired of speaking to her.
"If the video is not up by 10 tomorrow morning, get rid of them and raise a new set of people that will do a good job this time around. Since money is a problem, I will pay them to do exactly as I say." Alix said.
This woman was already impatient and couldn't wait to destroy Jia Li's reputation. And as things were not going the way she wanted, she was getting pissed off with each second that went by.
Carlos fixed an annoyed gaze at her and asked, "What do you see me as, your lackey or an assassin?"
From his expression, Alix knew that he was angry, but sue refused to bulge. "Why are you angry? It's not like I asked you to kill them directly, you can always send people to do the work for you."
"I will never be a partaker to this. I can do any other thing for you, but not get blood on my hands. If you are so desperate to get rid of anyone, why don't you do it yourself, why must you send me?" Carlos asked angrily.
Being reminded of this selfish side of Alix infuriated him greatly. And that's why sometimes, he would fire back at her.
Alix didn't think she was wrong. In fact, she looked offended by Carlos's anger towards her.
"What are you scared of?" She asked.
"If you think there is no problem with your job description, why don't you carry it out yourself and leave me out of it?" Carlos said, and without waiting for her response, he got to his feet and left her house.
Alix's face was twisted in a frown as she watched him walk out on her.. She was angry, and so threw some magazines to the floor just to vent her anger.
