Elizabeth finally found Madam Yun amongst her friends. She sighs in relieved to see her doing well. Seeing that the woman was fine made her ponder on the situation again.
"This does not make sense. If they are not here for Madam Yun, who are they here for?" She muttered to herself.
The more she tried to a.n.a.lyze everything the more things didn"t make sense. She was sure the flowers were meant for the Yuns so was the dead animal present.
"Could they be after me? I mean, did my dad sent them to pick me up since he knew something would to happen?" She asked herself but couldn"t find the answer to them.
Seeing the Madam Yun was fine, Elizabeth decided to return to where she left Elder Chairman Yun and Little Yan. On her way, she encounters a man whom made her look as if she has seen a ghost.
Jayden Stanford was on his way to the party. He was on the phone while driving…
"Get me some men to the Yun"s estate at once." He said with such a worried tone.
"Young Master is something wrong?"
"Stop asking question and just send some men there at once." He yelled out of frustration.
"At once…"
The person on the other end immediately ended the call.
Jayden Stanford tried to call another person but doubted the person will answer. When he heard the call went through, a small hope of light flash in front of him.
"Lord Knightley, I"m sorry to bother you but I need your help." He spoke with a respectable tone.
"If your worried about Lizzy don"t be, my wife has sent some men already." Lord Knightley responded with no emotion.
"Lord Knightley, I"m afraid they won"t be able to do anything... " Jayden Stanford paused for a moment and wonder who informed the Zhao about the situation. She was sure Yun Shen would never put his pride down and ask for help. "Lord Knightley, the people in the party aren"t after the Yuns, that"s why the Zhao won"t be any help…."
"You…" Lord Knightley"s tone turned cold which brought chills down Jayden"s spine.
"I realize Liz has another secret which brought quite a shock to me when I found out. But, its normal for children from family like ours to go such training. But, who would have thought Liz to have connection with the underground world."
"What? She told you?"
Lord Knightley was astounded for she never thought her daughter would have connection with the underground world. During those years she was gone, they thought she was taken by the underground world back then. But who would have thought that she really had a close connection with Petrovich?
"So you didn"t know as well. I"ve ordered my men to find out about what happened back then. But it seems all information is being blocked by someone"s power. And it seems even you don"t have power over them." Jayden Stanford was confident of what he was saying. The Knightley don"t hold any strong connection and control within the underground world, unlike their family.
"So, what do you want?" Lord Knightley"s tone calmed for he suspects all of this has a reason.
"Cancel the engagement between Liz and Feng Xiaotong. Between the Feng and Stanford. I"m sure with my connection I can protect her from the people after her. The Knightley holds great power in Europe, whilst the Zhao holds Asia and my family holds the West. With this, I"m sure they won"t go against us."
Lord Knightley who was in his office looked at Winston. The call was placed in loudspeaker so Winston knew what they were talking about.
"If I may my Lord, what he said does make sense," Winston said.
"Hmm?" Lord Knightley thought for a moment before answering the person on the other end.
"If you can save Lizzy, then I might consider what you said. But, if Lizzy finds her way out or is rescued by Feng or Shen. Then don"t expect I"ll ever consider your offer."
Jayden Stanford senses the hostility in Lord Knightley"s tone. He knew that the man saw that he was indeed the best option for his daughter. However, the fact he fooled around with her made him his last choice even if he"s the last person on earth.
"Lord Knightley, rest a.s.sured, your daughter will be in good hands." He smiled brightly seeing he was on the lead of the game now.
Jayden Stanford steps on the gas as he speeds down the highway to the Yun"s residence.
Meanwhile, back in the Yun"s residence.
Elder Chairman Yun went in search of his sons along with Little Yan. When the three brothers saw their father with the little girl. The two brothers immediately voice out their opinion of the situation to their father.
"Father, what should we do, those men are probably here for Little Yan!" Yun Zexian went closer to his father and pushed the little girl aside.
"Father this is all Shizhen fault. He must have offended someone that is why they are taking their frustration and revenge on Little Yan. They mentioned they are looking for a girl. It must be Little Yan!"
"What do you mean my fault!? I haven"t offended anyone in my entire life nor have I cheated anyone unlike you!" President (Shizhen) Yun furiously said.
Without any warning, Yun Zexian grabs hold of his brother (Shizhen) by the collar and pushed him aside. "Brother, are you trying to say that I"ve cheated someone?"
"Have you forgotten who you are? How dare you slander your own older brother?!" Yun Lingxin roared and glared at his brother as well.
"Why do you think father left me the company. Both of you have gambled all the money father has worked hard-on on useless projects. Both of you used the company money to satisfy your personal needs. You even took company money and transfer it on your own personal account." President Yun (Shizhen) got back on his feet and stared furiously at his brother for he couldn"t take it any longer and all the burdens bottled up have finally exploded.
"Father, don"t listen to Shizhen, his just pointing finger since his family is currently in danger." Yun Lingxin went closer to his father.
"That"s right, father only left the company to brother since he successfully collaborated with the Feng." Yun Zexian added.
"Do you b*stards really think I didn"t know what you"ve been doing behind my back!" Elder Chairman Yun pushed his son away and went over to help Little Yan up. "You even dare treated my own great-granddaughter like she"s a trash."
"Father, all of this is happening because of her." Yun Lingxin pointed his finger at the little girl.
"What do you mean because of her. If they are after her, they would have taken her from us already. Yet, look…" Elder Chairman Yun pointed at the men in black who continued to search for the person they are looking for. "Do you still think they are here for Little Yan?"
"Then who are they looking for?" Yun Lingxin asked confusedly as he looked at his brother and father.
They looked at each other wondering who the men in black are after and whether the flowers, kinds of music, and dead animals are related to that person as well.
