'Why do I feel like there is a foul play in his death? Did Monica learn about our secret meet-up?' Old Man Xu had ssuspicions.
"I need to verify something!" Old Man Xu sternly said. He was unhappy and enraged because of Maximilian's untimely death. He made a promise to him that they would both uncover the result of the DNA Test tomorrow. 'How could this tragedy fall upon him? I feel bad for him.' Old Man Xu thought to himself.
"Okay, Chairman. I'll just see Dr. Jones. I need to get my laboratory result last week." Butler Li didn't stay long as he searched for Dr. Jones.
Meanwhile, Old Man Xu left the medical facility, heading to the hospital where Maximilian was confined. Together with his secretary, Old Man Xu went to investigate the true cause of Maximilia's death.
But little did the old man know, someone was already monitoring his movement. Their car was being followed secretly.
"Madam, the old man is on the move. It looks like he is heading to the hospital. What should we do?" Monica's underling contacted her, giving her an update.
Monica had just finished taking a shower. She had a good twith Vincent earlier. "Follow my instruction. Do it now!" Monica finally gave her go signal, an evil smile forming on her lips. 'Vincent just toldnot to kill him… but I am still allowed to capture him.' She thought to herself.
"Understood, Madam!" her underling obediently responded.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtOld Man Xu's car traversed through the streets, clueless of the impending threat that was coming their way. A group of armed men expertly pursued, three vehicles silently tailing Old Man Xu's car from behind.
In a less crowded street, Old Man Xu's car slowed down at a traffic signal and the unmarked vehicles closed in, surrounding his car. The sudden blockade forced the driver to halt, and the atmosphere thickened with tension. "What's going on?" Old Man Xu asked when his car abruptly stopped. "Did we hit a car?"
Before anyone could comprehend the situation, masked men, armed to the teeth, swarmed around the vehicle, efficiently immobilizing Old Man Xu's driver and secretary. He didn't bring any security personnel that day.
In a matter of seconds, the armed assailants breached the car, forcefully pulling Old Man Xu out of his seat. Despite his struggles, he was overpowered and swiftly carried away, disappearing into the broad daylight with the masked abductors. The only evidence left behind was the abandoned car, its engine idling in eerie silence.

[ At Country J… ]
"My lady, your father summons us. He wants us to meet him at my branch headquarters. They are already waiting for us there," Tatsumi informed Jane, who was happily conversing with Nathan.
Jane paused for a moment, casting a worried look at Nathan. "I have to go and meet my father. Is it okay to leave you here alone? Will you wait for me?"
"Yes. Go on. I'm fine with that." Nathan shouldn't be greedy. He was already glad that he got to spend the whole night with Jane. They also made love several times early this morning.
"I'll go out and explore the city while waiting for you." He wanted to reassure her.
"Okay. Let's keep in touch. Updateon your locations from tto time. Once our meeting is finished, I'll cand meet you." Jane stood up.
However, Nathan was quick enough to seize her wrist, pulling her for a moment as he gave her a kiss on her lips. He didn't care if Tatsumi was watching them. He just wanted to show him that Jane was his woman.
Jane just hit his chest after breaking the kiss. She knew Nathan deliberately kissed her in front of Tatsumi as if he was marking his territory.
'What an ungrateful brat? How could he do that to Tatsumi who welcomed him in his place.' Jane pouted her lips at Nathan.
On the other hand, Tatsumi just pretended he didn't see that scene. He turned around to leave. "I'll wait for you in the car, My Lady."
"Okay," She simply replied then shifted her attention back to Nathan.
"Inconsiderate brat! Why did you do that?" Jane had the urge to reprimand him.
"I'm just getting even… you know. I got jealous when the two of you were introduced together as an engaged couple," Nathan told her truthfully.
Jane sighed helplessly. "Alright! But next time… be kind to Tatsumi. Befriend him, okay? He is a nice guy."
"You are makingmore jealous if you keep speaking up for him." Nathan's face contorted, asking to be consoled by Jane.
"Stop acting like a child Nate." Jane emitted a soft giggle. "I'll see you later, Darling." Jane gave him a peck on his lips then playfully winked at him.
"Yeah. I'll be waiting." Nathan waved at her as he watched her walk out of the door.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmJane and Tatsumi didn't waste any more tas they headed to the branch headquarters. Tatsumi was the leader of this branch.
A few minutes later, they arrived at their destination. Tatsumi's subordinate welcomed them and guided him to the room where Mr. Hiroshi and Kazuki were waiting.
As they both entered the room, they were utterly surprised to see another figure sitting opposite Mr. Hiroshi–Vincent.
'What is Vincent doing here?' Jane was flabbergasted by this encounter. She glanced at her father but she couldn't figure out what he was thinking at that moment.
"Please join us… Jane. Tatsumi." Kazuki invited them to sit down.
"What is this all about, Dad? Why is he here?" Tatsumi whispered to Kazuki.
On the other hand, Jane didn't like this turn of events. 'What did he say to my father? Why did he chere?'
As she made her way to the vacant chair next to Mr. Hiroshi, she locked eyes with Vincent. Vincent smiled at her faintly. Jane could only clench her fists tightly, trying to control her rage.
When Jane and Tatsumi settled down on their respective chairs, Mr. Hiroshi finally broke his silence.
"Maybe you are both wondering why I invited the leader of King Stallion Mafia here. Last night, he claimed that he is the father of my daughter's child. So we are here to confirm this. He also brought the child for us to meet her." Mr. Hiroshi declared to them.
Jane didn't know what to feel when she heard that. She had mixed emotions. But what caught her attention the most was the fact Vincent was bringing the child today to meet them.
'My child… is here.' Jane instinctively scanned the room, searching for a small kid. But she didn't see anyone.
As if Vincent had read her mind, he spoke up, "My men are escorting her now. They are now on the way here. Someone fetched her from the airport."
For sunknown reason, Jane's heart suddenly filled with longing. What if her child was indeed a live? Did Vincent steal her child, making them apart?
The room was filled with heavy tension. It did not take long before they heard a knock. Everyone turned their heads to the door, expecting to see the child.
