Chapter 284 An Excellent Woman

Prev Chapter Next Chapter

In the photo, Anne was wearing a simple suit and her face was bereft of any smile. Standing next to

Kevin, she seemed quite lost and lonely.

"Is this Anne?" Molly gazed at the photo and asked.

She realized that the person in the photo was very elegant and had an unforgettable face. Molly had to

admit that Anne was a natural beauty. There was something about her eyes that made her stand out.

One could tell she had experienced a lot in her life.

"Yes. Now you know what an excellent woman our CEO is in love with!" Loretta said, hoping to remind

her she couldn't have Kevin. Having worked in the AN Group for a long time, she was used to seeing

plenty of women like Molly. They pursued Kevin but never succeeded.

"I know," Molly said, disappointment etched in her voice. Now that she had gotten a glimpse of Anne,

she was sure nobody deserved Kevin more than this woman.

"I am glad you do. Working hard in the company should be your number one priority," Loretta said and

patted Molly on the shoulder.

Molly nodded slightly.

In the CEO's office of the AN Group, the ultra-thin silver computer was placed on the table.

The progress of rebuilding the old town was being shown on the screen.

Kevin stared at the screen, a faint smile creeping upon his face. If everything went smoothly, the work

would be finished in a month.

"Mr. Kevin, it is said that the CY Group has withdrawn most of its businesses from the country." Hearing

his assistant's words, Kevin was relieved for a moment but then a frown appeared on his face.

According to the assistant, this was supposed to make his boss happy. Hence the sudden shift in

Kevin's expression bothered him.

"Okay, I see," Kevin said, lost in thought.

"Mr. Kevin, is there anything wrong?" the assistant asked, looking puzzled.

Kevin sneered and said, "As far as I know, Kim is not the kind of man who would give up so easily."

Kim, the business hacker, was anything but a quitter! This could only mean he had something bigger

brewing in his mind.

"What should we do now?" the assistant asked nervously.

The reason why he was so nervous was that once the CY Group withdrew from the country, the

investigation about the CY Group would be terminated, which was a good thing, but would also bring in

a lot of disadvantages.

"Don't worry. It doesn't matter what they do. How is everything going on with the KIA Group?" Kevin

asked as he continued to browse the web.

Hearing this, the assistant said with faint ridicule, "Mr. Kevin, the CEO of the KIA Group, Ryan, is no

longer in contact with any of the departments of the AN Group. However, in the KIA Group, there are

shareholders trying to cotton up with AN Group."

Ryan had made a big mistake. Slowly, everyone had started to turn against him. Ryan was too anxious

for success that he didn't know how to appease his subordinates. Hence he ended up in a miserable

state.

"I see. Pay attention to his shareholders and get some information about the KIA Group. Make sure

you report it to me every day." Kevin's focus on the KIA Group made the assistant even more worried.

"But Mr. Kevin, we are not going to cooperate with the KIA Group anymore. Why should we still pay

attention to them?"

"Just do as I say. Please don't ask questions," Kevin said coldly.

His eyes were filled with coldness. Nobody in the company would expect that the CEO of CY Group

and the KIA Group had already teamed up.

Kevin had always been accurate in his judgment, so this time he was sure that he was right. However,

he did not understand why Ryan would cooperate with the CY Group.

After thinking for a while, Kevin felt an excruciating headache. Tired, he leaned against his table.

After about twenty minutes, the office door was abruptly opened. The sound of the door opening woke

Kevin up. Startled and annoyed, he said coldly, "Didn't I tell you not to open the door without my

permission? Where are your manners?"

"Why are you in such a sour mood? Did you wake up on the wrong side of the bed?" Sam said with a

smile.

Kevin turned around and saw it was Sam. Nobody else dared to behave so boldly.

"Cut the crap. Why are you here?" Kevin asked, not in a mood for small talks.

He didn't need to be polite to a guy who just broke into his office.

"Wasn't your company having a hard time recently? Now that the CY Group has withdrawn, why aren't

you celebrating?" Sam's words annoyed Kevin.

However, he had changed a lot and had learnt to keep his temper in check.

Even though he found Sam's words strange, he remained calm and composed.

"I am guessing you find this odd too," Kevin said while he rubbed his temples.

"Yes, something is indeed fishy. The CY group wouldn't quit so easily. After all, they have planned it for

so long," Sam said.

"Well, I know what you mean. Keep an eye on Ryan. I can't do anything now, or I might be exposed,"

Kevin said seriously.

"Of course. But are you sure that Ryan is in collusion with Kim from the CY Group? I don't think Ryan

has the ability to do so," Sam pointed out, not quite sure if this was right.

"What if Ryan had a weakness and Kim took advantage of it?" Kevin tapped the table with his fingers

and smiled thoughtfully.

Hearing what Kevin said, Sam thought it was indeed a possibility. Yet he wondered what weakness of

Ryan could be taken advantage of by Kim.

The villa belonging to the CY Group was located in the midst of water.

Wherever you turned, there would be an endless amount of water. One needed to take a ship if they

wanted to leave the place.

Kim liked staying here. He liked the solitude here and went out only if his presence was needed in

order to make a big decision.

"Mr. Kim, Mr. Li has come to see you." the pretty young maid announced, walking barefoot on the

carpet.

Kim's expression hardened. Suddenly, he turned around and held the maid's neck. His eyes were

bloodshot and he was writhing with fury.

"Who allowed you to let him in? Tell him he has already died in my heart!" He was like an angry beast,

venting his rage madly.

The maid was choking and wasn't in a position to fight back. She struggled and sputtered, "I am…

sorry."

"Kim, let go of her," an authoritative voice ordered.

Kim sneered and said, "You don't have the right to order me."

He did not want his room to be defiled by someone who was already dead in his heart, so he let go of

her.

"I am your father. Without me, how could you be what you are today?" the old man said and let out a

snort.

"Phillip, you've just contributed a little bit of your genes. What else have you done over the years? Do

you think you have any hand in my success?"

There was coldness in Kim's voice. He had no feelings for Phillip Li.

When his mother was pregnant, his father went out to have fun and didn't glance back even once. As a

result, she suffered from serious depression and took up gambling.

His father did nothing but make his life miserable. The man in front of him had offended so many

people that ever since he was a little boy, he had people hunting him down. He hardly managed to get

a good night's sleep.

Given the choice, Kim wanted to live a normal life. But he knew he had no choice. In order to survive,

he had to become ruthless.

That was why he became what he was today.

Phillip Li flashed a disgusting smile and said shamelessly, "Isn't that good? Your achievements are

much greater than mine. No one in the Li Family is as good as you."

Kim smiled again. He didn't seem to have any emotion. He just knew that the path he had taken was by

no means the path a normal person should take, but he couldn't stop. It was too late. Even if he tried to

mend his ways, his enemies would not let him go.

"If you want anything, just tell my assistant. Don't come to my house and pollute the air here ever

again, or I don't know what I will do to you." Kim's voice was cold, not like a human voice, but more like

the roar of a devil crawling out of the hell.

"Okay, I just need some money. My company is in trouble," Phillip Li said cheekily.

"You spend all your money on your lovers. Phillip, I wish you were dead," Kim said indifferently.

"But your mother loves me so much. She won't allow you to do anything to me. Kim, you can't get rid of

me as long as she is alive. I know how much you care about her. You have no choice but to help me."

After saying that, Phillip Li smiled again and left.

Kim clenched his fists and punched the marble. Blood began to gush from his fingers.

He stood all alone. Sometimes he even didn't know what he was living for. He could never experience

joy like the people around him did. He envied those who were happy.

The maid had left quietly, not willing to face his fury.

In the East Mountain Villa, it was a sunny day.

Anne lounged on the tatami, basking in the sun with her eyes closed.

Eddy ran towards her, his eyes shining brighter than the sun.

"Mom, this is from Grandma." Eddy reached out his hand and there was an amulet in it. It was delicate

and lovely.

Selma had been quite happy ever since Eddy was around her. However, she was also starting to

become a little superstitious.

"Go and tell Grandma that it's useless. I don't believe in it," Anne said with a smile.

Selma came over having heard their conversation. "I know it's not credible, but I have no other way to

expression my feelings. I'm sorry I've done a lot of terrible things in the past."

Hearing these heartfelt words, Anne was quite moved. She reached for the amulet and wore it on her

wrist. With a smile, she thanked Selma.

"Mom, let's go to the amusement park. Grandma said there is a big flying car in the amusement park,"

Eddy said excitedly, holding Anne's hand.

All of a sudden, Anne's expression froze. And Selma's expression mirrored hers. Both the ladies were

stunned. Eddy had a wonderful memory. Selma had once casually mentioned the amusement park to

him in order to appease him. However, this brilliant child seemed to remember

it!
