CHAPTER 420

"I am afraid that even with these six months we were together, you still do not know me, Alix. Do I look like one who would do that? Seriously?"

Alix did not respond to her remarks and lowered her head in shame instead.

It was true that she had served Li Jing for six months and she could not think in her stead and know what and what she could do or not do.

"Okay let me tell you this, even when my husband and I had a misunderstanding, I still helped out with his company. One thing about me, I render my help when and where I can, irrespective of my grudge with you."

She took in a very deep breath and exhaled slowly, closing and opening her eyes in the process.

"I am sorry. I never intended to insinuate such. My apologies that my thinking was narrowed. I know you are a good person ma and not the gold-digging bitch your grand aunties made you feel you were."

"Interesting, thanks anyways. So what happened, next?"

"Hmm, not long after your grandfather's accident, well the very next day to be precise, your grand auntie, Hu Qi returned and took control of the company. How she knew of his accident, I do not know because we tried our best to cover everything up but she found out."

"She obviously has a spy."

"My guess exactly," Kai Alix confirmed.

"So, what else has happened that am not aware of and you think I should know about?"

"Umm, aside from she taking control, I made the rule for everyone to act this way as though he is very much okay and still leading this household, to prevent them from bringing their filthiness into this house."

"How did you manage that?"

"We locked his room door and prevented anyone, especially her, from entering, saying that he said he does not want to be disturbed. He wanted to rest and get better."

"And auntie agreed just like that?"

"No."

"I would have been doubtful if she did. So how did you make her sit out?"

"I told her what she wanted to hear the most."

"And what is that exactly?"

"That he said, she should continue taking the reins of the company till he gets better."

Li Jing's eyes shot wide open instantly. What had Alix done?

"Understand me, ma. She already took charge as the next in line and whenever she came to see him, she gave the excuse of, she wanting to come and take his approval to run the company in his absence to prevent the internal threat from rising."

"How convenient."

"Exactly. So when she said that, I told her we would relay the information to her when he sends for us and after her pestering, I finally told her what she wanted to hear and since then, she reduced drastically the way and manner in which she came here."

"Wow."

"That's the tale, ma. I am sorry for taking charge on my own but was just too scared and although we are giving him the necessary treatment, he doesn't seem to be getting any better."

"I see. Hmm." Her feet tapped away on the tiles floor as her eyes dimmed a fraction with her expression sour. One did not need somebody to state it. Li Jing had a lot on her mind.

"Alright, so what do you think we should do?"

***

After Li Jing successfully settled in, Alix took her to the room her grandfather was receiving his treatment. She had actually thought it was his room like he had said during her story but then again, she was wrong.

Actually what Alix had done was to take Mr Lin to his wife's private room and asked for his treatment to commence there while his room was constantly under lock and key to fool his sister and her goons.

"Nice one, Alix. Nice one. Even I did not think you would do something like this."

"Thank you for your praise, young miss. Please, this way." She turned around, facing the large curtains demarcating the room and the living room and lead Li Jing there.

As they went, Li Jing took the time to study the room. It was the first time she was actually entering her grandmother's private room. So she wanted to remember the place very well as it was a place where the late lady loved.

Unknown to her, she had stopped walking and just stayed where she was admiring the designs of the room when suddenly, her eyes landed on the portrait present in the room.

It was the portrait of her grandmother, Mrs Lin. She looked just like her mother and very much pretty even at her age.

"Your grandmother loved this room very well," Alix said, interrupting her thoughts.

"Really? Why? Shouldn't she have always been with grandfather in their room?"

"Yes, she was, but on days when she needed the inspiration to paint and just do some of her stuff, she would come here or even times when he travelled, she would come here. Sometimes if he missed her, he too would come here. Their love really was something else."

"I see. That was why you still brought him to this room and not just any other room right?"

Although Alix did not respond to her question, a simple smile was all she gave.

"I understand. Alright, let us proceed."

"As you wish, young miss." Turning again, she made her way to the room opening the door behind the huge curtain.

As soon as they stepped inside, Alix stepped to the side, allowing Li Jing to go in further and see her grandfather for herself.

The second her eyes laid on him, her face fell. Her grandfather really wasn't in a good state at all.

Although sleeping, he looked like someone in a coma. The maid was right.

"Oh my God!"

"I am sorry young miss, but this is the state the Chairman is in currently. I just could not let your auntie see this else, who knows what would have happened?"
