The CEO's Woman

Chapter 228 - Vengeful Heart



"I hate that woman!" Fan Linwen declared after drinking a glass of water that Jiang Mian handed. "How dare she even think of seeing herself as my competitor?"

"I agree with you. However, you need to be careful. She might use her connections against you. Who knows how many men that woman had." Jiang Mian said as she gently smiled at her friend.

"Hmp! Let's see how far she can go with her connections." Fan Linwen sneered."By the way, I finally saw your sister. The one who bullied you. I know you might not want to hear this, but I just want to inform you."

"Really? How is she?"

"Well, she is as arrogant as you said." Fan Linwen answered. "It seems like Fu Jin follow her like a goddess. I remember when we were at the restaurant, she told Fu Jin that she was already hungry, so Fu Jin decided to throw us out of the restaurant. Hmp.. she must have feared that we will get Fu Jin's attention away from her."

"A while ago she also ordered Fu Jin to take care of us. She even dared to call us foxes. After that Fu Jin immediately signaled the security personnel to take us out." Fan Linwen added. "So in those two instances that we saw her, she always asked Fu Jin to take care of us, then Fu Jin would order to throw us out."

"If my guess is right, then that Jiang Yue should be afraid that someone else will take Fu Jin's attention away from her."

Jiang Mian laughed inwardly at Fan Linwen's words. No wonder Fan Linwen was not able to get Fu Jin's attention. Her stupidity was off the charts.

"So, do you think my dream man will at least look at me without Jiang Yue?" Fan Linwen asked, clearly daydreaming.

"Of course, I bet that woman manipulated Fu Jin to avoid women like you." Jiang Mian decided to fan the flames and make Fan Linwen hate Jiang Yue even more. After all, stupid people like Fan Linwen was always easier to use. "My sister is already like that. She is domineering and arrogant. I wonder if Fu Jin finds that qualities adorable. What do you think?"

"Of course not! I don't think Fu Jin really like her. I have heard from my father once that Jiang Yue's maternal family is going to rule their country soon, alongside the Fu Family." Fan Linwen said. "It could only mean that this marriage is just for the two families convenience and alliance."

Jiang Mian couldn't help but applaud Fan Linwen's logic. Of course, everyone would assume this since they hadn't been able to witness Fu Jin and Jiang Yue's treatment toward each other. However, she knew everything between the two was true. It was not just a simple marriage alliance.

Of course, she would do everything to stop this marriage.

Jiang Mian sneered inwardly, she would take everything from Jiang Yue. This was her punishment for killing her mother.

And just like what Jiang Yue had done, Jiang Mian would also take Jiang Yue's mother away from her. Thinking about Wang Ruo only made Jiang Mian hate Jiang Yue even more. How come Jiang Yue had a sweet mother like Wang Ruo? Just how lucky was that woman?

"Mian Mian are you alright?" Fan Linwen asked when she sensed Jiang Mian's sullen state.

"Of course, I was... I just wonder if my elder sister misses me as much as I miss her," she answered.

"Stop thinking about your sister. I think she is already aware that you live here but chose not to meet you." Fan Linwen answered. "Anyway, there is a jewelry gala in a week. Too bad I did not receive any invitations. How about you?"

"Well... my manager got one for me. So I guess I will just go without you then."

"My... I am so jealous. I have to pester my brother tonight, to get one for me"

After a while, Fan Linwen said goodbye to Jiang Mian so she could go and meet her brother about the invitation.

"Miss Jiang, Master told me to inform you that Fu Jin accepted the invitation and informed them that he will attend only with his bodyguard. Jiang Yue will not be there. So he wanted you to use this opportunity to get close to him" A trusted servant informed Jiang Mian when she was about to go inside her room.

In response, she just nodded and closed her room's door.

It had been two years since she last saw Jiang Yue and Fu Jin. During these two years Jiang Mian had already evolved into a smart and beautiful butterfly. The exact opposite of what she had been before.

Li Qiang made her one of the most sought after artist in B Country. He also taught her how to seduce men and use her beauty to her advantage. In these two years, Jiang Mian had learned a lot of things that she could use against Jiang Yue. She was stronger and smarter now.

Of course, she would never forget about what Jiang Yue had done to her and her family. Her vengeful heart was the only thing that had been keeping her alive until now.

She couldn't wait to see Jiang Yue's reaction, once she realized that Jiang Mian had taken everything away from her.

With these thoughts in mind, Jiang Mian opened her laptop and called someone using a video calling software. Then she prepared her most dazzling smile,waiting for the person to answer.

"Mian Mian... I am so happy you have called. How are you?" came a bubbly voice on the other line.

Jiang Mian gave the lady a brilliant smile as she answered, "I am fine, Mother. Just a little tired. How about you?"

*sigh* "This child... stop working so hard and have some rest. I have already asked your father to allow me to take care of you in your house but he refused because of my health." the woman smiled gently. "I wish I could accompany you and take care of you. Why don't you help me convince your father?"

"You want to stay here? In my place?" Jiang Mian asked.

"Of course. I want to personally take care of you. After all, you are my child and mothers should always take care of their child. Right?"
