Chapter 279: Everything

Wang Ruo saw Li Qiang's name, flashing on the phone of the man that she had just killed.

So, this was all arranged by him. She should have known it, she thought for a while, before choosing not to answer the call.

However, the phone vibrated once again in her hands.

"Speak," she said, the moment she answered the phone.

"Come back to me." His words instantly made Wang Ruo speechless.

What was this man saying?

"You know I can't," she answered, trying to stop herself from laughing. For some reason, the way Li Qiang said it, sounded so funny to Wang Ruo.

"They will find you. Only I can protect you."

"You know that's not true, right?" she snapped. What bullshit was this man talking?

"I know, disguise is your expertise, but they can use your daughter against you. Jiang Yue is attracting too much attention. Her silver-gray eyes and features, resembling my own face, are a deadly expose that she is your daughter."

"That is none of your business. You were also after her life, you idiot! How dare you say these things? You have even attempted to kill her a few days ago!"

On the other end of the line Li Qiang went silent. Surely, he did not expect Wang Ruo to know these things. "So, you were just pretending."

"Just like you were."

"My feelings are true... and you know that," he sighed. "You know I will protect you with my life... Ruo'er, I will obtain Fu Conglomerate for you. We will be able to fight them together. I am doing all of this for you." Li Qiang's voice turned more gentle, almost as if he was not the same cruel man that everyone in B Country feared to the bone.

"You really have the courage to tell me all of this after continuously trying to kill my daughter! What? Do you think I will just run to you and give you a kiss for doing that? What do you take me for?"

"Wang Ruo listen to me... let me explain... please, Jiang Yue is..."

"I don't care about any of your explanations. You have tried to kill my daughter, and the only reason why I did not kill you, was that you have saved me before. From this moment onwards, we are enemies! I will kill you the next time I see you," she declared.

"Wang Ruo, listen to me, what do you think would happen to Jiang Yue if one of them saw her face all over the TV news?"

Wang Ruo instantly turned silent when she heard Li Qiang's words.

"They will kidnap her and torture her, to get your location." Li Qiang added. "You know what they are capable of."

"I will protect her."

"No one can protect her. Not even her father can protect her."

"Shut up!" she said softly. "Jiang Yue is MY daughter, and I will die, protecting her! I will neither run away nor hide in your mansion!"

"If that person gets to know about Jiang Yue's existence, many people will eventually conclude who her parents are. It will not just affect her, but also everyone around her, your father, brother and his son. Even Fu Jin will be affected."

"I said stop it! I won't let anything bad happen to her!"

Li Qiang let out a helpless sigh. "We both know that Jiang Yue should die. Or else she will suffer."

"I will give you twelve hours to come back to me. If you don't... then..."

"Don't you dare use my daughter, Li Qiang! I am warning you. You don't even know what I am capable of!"

"What are you capable of Wang Ruo? Huh? Other than running and hiding, what else?" he asked, before letting out another sigh. "Look... I'm sorry. I didn't mean to..."

"We're done talking," she ended the call without waiting for Li Qiang's words. Then, she stared at the bold 'WE' letters on top of Wang Empire building. Her daughter's office should be on the top floor just below these letters.

Wang Ruo smiled at the thought of Jiang Yue's achievements. If she could only walk up to her and tell her how much she missed her. If only she could hug her and stroke her hair once again.

She would... She would...

Wang Ruo shook her head, as she tried to remove all this wishful thinking from her head. Jiang Yue was safe... that was the most important thing right now.

Although she couldn't hug her daughter, she could watch her from afar. She could guard her and keep her safe. For some reason, Wang Ruo was happy that Jiang Yue did not know that she was still alive.

That would keep her safe, locked, and hidden away from the prying eyes.

Just the thought of the people, who were watching Jiang Yue secretly, instantly made Wang Ruo's blood boil. It's not surprising that the Vercello Family had their eyes on Jiang Yue, after all, she was so outstanding. No one would be able to match up to her if she contested for the matriarch position.

Because of this, Wang Ruo was sure that some enemies of the Vercello Family would also have their eyes on her. After all, she was the strongest candidate for that position.

That was the reason why she-Wang Ruo would give everything that she had, to protect her daughter.

Everything…
