Chapter 269 Please Have Mercy On Me (1/2)

Despite of what happened, Jack remained a member of the Gu family. Despite Mr. Gu's anger, he spoke to Arthur, ”Send someone to keep an eye on him.”

”Understood, sir. It will be done immediately.”

Mr. Gu brought the teacup to his lips, savoring the tea's warmth into his system. However, it wasn't enough to change his bad mood, ”One more thing. Kindly check up on what Jacob has been doing lately!”

Mr. Gu thought he treated Jacob as if he was his own son. However, Jacob obviously had never been grateful to him.

He remembered that Jacob threatened him with the Gu Consortium because of Emily. Having been the CEO for so many years, Jacob knew all the secret transactions that would make the business crumble if they were ever brought out to the public.

For the first time, Mr. Gu was aware that Jacob didn't care about anything in the consortium at all, or maybe he knew something about what Mr. Gu had been trying to hide all these years!

If that was the case, he didn't need to be kind to Jacob anymore!

Anything he gave Jacob, he could always take it back!

The Gu family were so busy in their own troubles, nobody noticed the dirty woman who escaped from Jack's basement.

Rose sighed in relief. She never thought that she would see the light of the day ever again.

She had been imprisoned in a dark basement and miserably tortured by Jack for too long. What date was it today? She had forgotten. She suffered so much that death could be considered a luxury for her.

She unexpectedly escaped and she was truly thanking the heavens for letting her go.

She had no idea what happened. It was all just a fuzzy memory. Right now, she wanted to stay away from the Gu Family, from Jack, and from the Tao Family. She had to find a way where they wouldn't find her.
