Chapter 499 Bully
"The CCTV on the parking lot was deleted. As well as the CCTV's on the areas surrounding the parking lot." Secretary Go said. "It's clear that whoever did this planned all this even before the meeting."
"That is obvious," Lily said as she ate took a bite of the burger in her hand. "And that Actress is really beautiful and talented too. I don't think she needs more publicity. So… my guess is… this is not her plan. Someone is using her."
"A smart person would not try to complicate things by involving a possibly married man whose wife is known as a ruthless individual in the world of business," Bei Tian added. "It's either this woman is not that smart… or someone was using her." He looked at everyone and grunted. "Why are you staring at me like that?"
Lily only shrugged in response while Zhou Jingren started working again. "I think… this is an absolute waste of time." Zhou Jingren said. "They even made a Weibo account… who would believe that I use Weibo?"
"Her fans did."
Both Bei Tian and Secretary Go nodded at Lily's words.
"Alright… I think you guys can go now." Lily said. "I want to sleep and shop with Zhou Jingren later."
"You keep on sleeping. One of these days, you will look like a pig." Bei Tian commented before she rose from his seat and ran out of the office with Secretary Go in tow.
"Bully," Lily said. "I am not going to sleep, alright!"
"If you are sleepy, then sleep. There is no need to worry about being fat. You are so thin anyway… you need more muscles." Zhou Jingren said.
As expected Lily immediately beamed at his words. Her husband is just the best, ah.
"No… I just said that to get rid of them." She gave him a smug smile as she opened her phone and sent a text to her brother. "I will ask Qin Yuanfeng to visit us later tonight. I think he can still retrieve that CCTV images."
"I already asked him to visit us," he held her gaze and smiled. "I knew you would say that, so I saved you the trouble."
"Alright…" Lily nodded and beamed before she opened her laptop. "Whoever is behind this seemed prepared. This makes me wonder if… this has something to do with your grandfather."
Zhou Jingren frowned in response. "I already sent him a warning. If he won't stop this… his company will suffer."

"I did not do this," Isaac said as he read the articles that Thomas handed. "Why would you even think that I did that?"
"Well… I am just wondering." Thomas answered. He wanted to tell his father that Ron could easily convince him into doing stupid things like this. But he refrained himself. "Zhou Jingren and even Lily have a lot of enemies. I am not surprised that something like this would happen. Still… I am curious to know who would dare do this and what are they planning to accomplish."
"Who knows? This is Karma! That woman forced me to sign the transfer of shares! This is what she gets for disrespecting an old man like me!" Isaac said. "This should be because of that woman. I think it is best that we lay low for now and let Zhou Jingren forget about everything that we did. He will soon realize that Lily is causing him harm."
"I don't think Zhou Jingren will just forget about us father."
"He won't have a choice! He will forgive us once he needed our help!"
Thomas wanted to argue. The probability that Zhou Jingren will need them is close to impossible. First, Zhou Jingren has a competent woman like Lily on his side. Second, he owns a big network in the black market. He could easily have someone killed and no one would even ask any questions about it. And third… his parents. Zhou Wu Ye and Zhou Dae Un would let no one hurt their precious son.
"Any news about Demi and her father?" the old man asked. In response, Thomas sighed.
"Demi… was sent to a mental institution abroad. And until now Jun Liang refused to have any contact with his brother. He even asked his secretary to block any numbers that are associated with us. That includes his brother's number."
"That man is a fool! Clearly, our views are different. Why would he hate us? We were the ones trying to help her daughter marry the man that she likes!" Old Man Lee sneered. "Alright… when are we going to see Dae Un? Did you call her and schedule a meeting?"
"She refused to meet us," Thomas answered. He wondered if the old man was still planning to give Zhou Dae Un and Zhou Jingren everything that he has even after all this. Seeking for Zhou Dae Un and Zhou Jingren's forgiveness while trying his best to ruin them at the same time is actually not the best approached. Did the old man really think that they will forgive him if he keeps on doing this?
"Then call for another conference! I will announce that Zhou Dae Un is my daughter, and that she is Zhou Jingren's mother."
"But… isn't that— "
"That is the only way." Issac pursed his lips. Even his assistant agreed with him. "Just do it… This is not up for any discussion. Since they refused to see me, then… I will announce to the world that they are related." A sinister smile bloomed on the old man's face as he leaned against his leather chair.
In response, Thomas nodded. Since the old man was seeking for his own destruction, then he would not stop him. "Alright... I will schedule another conference."
Thomas rose from his seat and left the room. Now that Lily already had access to the Lee Group, Thomas couldn't help but wonder if the woman was planning something else aside from this. Surely, Lily would not just stop after acquiring shares, right?
Thomas knew that whatever the old man was planning could cause his downfall. However, he also knew that the old man would rather listen to Ron's advice than his. After all, Isaac does not really consider him as his own son.
