Chapter 256 Tired
A piece of very big news broke out the same night.
The Wang Estate in Xin CIty was almost destroyed by a big fire. It was reported that almost half of the whole property had been burnt and claimed that there had even been casualties. But there was no report about who had died during the fire. They were still waiting for the proper list from authorities. However, what attracted everyone’s attention was the fact that someone shared a photo of Jiang Yue, dancing in one of the high-end bars in B Country; not even caring about what had happened at the Wang Estate and with her family!
This earned another bashing from the netizens. Of course, no one was aware that real Jiang Yue and her family were safe and talking about Wang Ruo.
After Fu Jin called Jiang Yue, the latter immediately followed her husband’s words and told her grandfather to go somewhere safe. However, she did not expect her grandfather ask her and Wang Huo to silently follow him, as they walked to a safe house: located just below the Wang Estate. This safehouse was made by Jiang Yue’s grandfather to hide everything that involved Natalie Vercello-Jiang Yue’s grandmother. Of course, it was a secret place that only her grandfather knew about.
Jiang Yue let out a sigh, as she roamed her eyes through the room, full of scattered news articles, pictures, and some documents. She had just received news that the fire was already put away. Jiang Yue could actually say that she couldn’t stay calm after knowing about her mother and grandmother’s secrets. She was not even able to connect everything together. Her mind must have been just too exhausted.
After all that had happened, Jiang Yue could actually say that she was tired. She was too tired of everything, that had been happening lately. Why couldn’t she and Fu Jin have a happy life until they grew old, with no people going against them, whatsoever? Why must they experience so much?
Jiang Yue laughed at her own questions. This was the path that she had chosen, to protect everyone that she loved.
At one point, Jiang Yue badly wanted to just lay down and sleep, however, she knew that her mind would not let her do that, it would not let her rest until she found out the truth behind her mother’s secrets.
Of course, Jiang Yue was also thankful that Fu Jin was there, beside her. He was giving her the strength that she needed. And protecting her if she was being unable to protect herself, just like that day.
Jiang Yue was so busy analyzing Wang Ruo’s diary that she was not even able to, at least, realize that danger was coming her way. If Fu Jin was not there, then, who knew if Jiang Yue would have still been alive after the big fire that night?
"So... this is..." Jiang Yue wanted to say something, however, she was too shocked by the place they currently were.
"This room is for Natalia," Her grandfather began, "Or, as everyone calls her-Natalie. She is your grandmother. I have met her when I was just starting my own company."
Jiang Yue listened, as her grandfather told her everything that he knew about her grandmother.
"I suspected that she was not telling the truth. I knew the Vercello Family was one of the richest in the world but I... At that time, I was not aware that they were also an organized crime group that could move mountains and command countries."
"So... grandmother did not tell you about any of this? What about her children? How could she leave them?" Jiang Yue asked, confused. What kind of mother would leave her children behind?
The kind, that was afraid for her children’s life.
"I don’t know... " Wang Guiren answered, "She just disappeared the next morning, leaving the twins with me."
"However, she... she made me promise to protect Wang Ruo at all costs," he added, his gaze unfathomable.
Jiang Yue did not respond to her grandfather’s words. Instead, she fell into deep thought. Why would her grandmother leave her children right after giving birth to them? Why did she have to hide her identity from her own husband? What else was she hiding? Was she trying to run away from someone? If so... from whom?
