Chapter 460 Dumb and Blind
"We will let you go and not bother you again. I would also personally give some support to the Moon Empire. We could start all over again."Antonio said when he saw the smile in Jiang Yue"s face. Now that he was staring straight at Jiang Yue"s eyes, he did notice something different about it. Her eyes this time did not show any cunningness nor alertness. It was… It was… dead.
That"s right, her eyes are dead. No emotion. Just... blank.
Nothing.
"Where is the helicopter?" Jiang Yue asked. "If you could confirm that Fu Jin is not dead then, I might agree to your request."
After he heard Jiang Yue"s words, Antonio instantly signaled Peter and Quan Lei to call their men and ask them to abort the mission. However, both men only furrowed their brows as they try to call some of their men.
"We can"t…" Quan Lei did not continue his words as he shook his head towards Antonio. And just like him, Peter also shook his head towards the latter.
In response, Antonio"s face sunk. Peter informed her a while ago that Mia and Nico planned a counter-attack today. They are also planning to attack Fu Jin"s mansion. "Call Mia…" He looked at Peter.
"Now!"
Jiang Yue only looked at the men in front of him. If they could confirm that Fu Jin is safe then, she would cancel the attack. However, if they can"t then… she would rather die with everyone here. "Three more minutes gentlemen and the villa along the lake would explode."
Jiang Yue watched as Peter accompanied by Quan Lei ran their way out of the hall to get Mia. Once they could stop this threat, both of them already promised themselves that they would start a clean slate with Jiang Yue. Though, they know that Jiang Yue loved Fu Jin so much, they still did not lose any hope. Especially Quan Lei.
Over the years, Quan Lei had already fallen in love with Jiang Yue. At first, Quan Lei convinced himself that he must be taking interest in Jiang Yue because she was the only woman who dared reject him. But as time pa.s.sed, he realized that his feeling was not because she hurt his pride. No. It was something else. Something that he never felt towards any other woman.
Quan Lei know that Antonio"s decision would also include giving Jiang Yue her freedom. Meaning, no more marriage. However, this would not stop Quan Lei from pursuing Jiang Yue. When he heard Antonio"s words just now, Quan Lei already promised himself that he would start his plan by being friends with Jiang Yue.
The duo immediately arrived at Mia"s room and brought her towards the hall. To their surprise, Mia was calm and did not even ask them any questions. She just silently followed them towards the dining hall.
When they arrived, Antonio instantly asked her to call Nico. But the same thing happened. She was not able to contact her grandfather or anyone from her grandfather"s most trusted men.
"You! What did you do to my grandfather and his men?" Mia asked, her shrill voice echoed inside the hall.
"Shut your mouth!" Peter hissed before grabbing Mia"s arms. They are in a very dangerous situation right now and Mia still wanted to offend Jiang Yue. Though Mia is not aware of the current situation, she should be smart enough to detect that something is extremely wrong in the environment. What a dumb woman.
"You-" Mia was about to retort when she noticed Antonio"s glare. She then let a loud harrumphed before crossing her arms around her chest and taking the seat next to Peter.
"The helicopter should be here any second now… if you could give me a minute to confirm that Fu Jin is still alive then… then… that would be great." Antonio said, his gaze complicated. For Antonio, the deadliest enemy is not the person who had the most advanced technology. But the person who is not planning to live anymore. Just like Jiang Yue right now…
Antonio wanted to add how he would also be willing to pay Jiang Yue some amount of money to pay for the damages that were caused by his plan. However, he was able to convince himself that this would only agitate Jiang Yue even more. Antonio could only grit his teeth right now as he watched Jiang Yue blankly stare at him.
Everyone already knew that Jiang Yue had the s.p.a.ce weapon but he thought Jiang Yue would be easy to control once Fu Jin is out of the way. Then he could just threaten her. His calculations told him that Jiang Yue would not be the type of person that would kill herself. How could she even think of that when she is not yet thirty years old? Antonio thought that by killing Fu Jin, Jiang Yue would only feel dejected and maybe become depress. Making it easy for Antonio to control her and eventually make her do everything that he wanted.
However, he was wrong. Jiang Yue might be smart, but she is also crazy. Somehow, her emotion made her dumb and blind.
