Chapter 78 - Lucky Charm (1/2)
”Wait! I am not done yet.” Lena pointed out.
Kris stopped and turned back to Lena.
”You saw him. The man with the scar on his face. The same man I showed you a picture of a while back.”
Kris lifted his chin. ”He got away.”
”No. With your team, he would have not slipped out of the area. You let him get away. Why?”
Kris walked up to Lena. ”You want me to be your teacher? Anyone here can tell you that saving a life is easier than taking one.”
Kris moved his face closer to Lena. Lena could see his dark unwavering eyes and his distinctive cologne. ”I choose to save someone instead. You cannot raise the dead but you can still chase after the live ones.”
Kris saw Lena's firm eyes and a strong heart. He walked back to take a seat on the sofa. ”So student, tell me, what is your next step.”
Lena brightly smiled and looked up to James to show that she was successful. ”Play them.”
”And how are you going to do that? Madam Yang had played you a few times now. And her pawn has Andy wrapped around her fingertips.”
”But she made several mistakes. I am still alive, and I know what can bring her down.”
Kris approved this behavior from Lena. When you get knocked down, you get back up stronger. Hit your enemy with their weakness, something Lena had been doing this whole time to him.
”Gary is the half-brother of Andy.” Lena stated.
”Say what?” James was shocked. Everyone else in the room did not expect that. They looked at Lena to continue.
”Madam Yang had an affair and gave birth to Gary. Gary is her worst mistake. If the Yang family knows about this, it will ruin her. We need to find out who she had an affair with and make sure Gary is safe.”
Lena looked out the door. ”He is our ace card.”
Kris did not know this change of information. With this, as Lena said, it will be easier to take down Madam Yang. He had already figured out who the inside man that she sent into the Li Group. He will use the mole and fired it back at that witch.
”Are you not trusting me too easy?” Kris questioned Lena.
”No. We both have the same end goal. As long as I am not useless for you, you won't harm me. Plus… your mom likes me.”
Kris sighed and pushed his hair back with one hand. 'His mother....'
”So… how easy it is to fake someone's death?”
”Not that hard, Miss. Shen.” Keso replied.
Lena discussed a few more things with Kris. Kris told her that he will take care of Gary. Their first plan of action is to use the news to cover up their story. ”Miss. Shen has PTSD and boyfriend died from kidnapping.”
Allowing the news to spread will secure Lena and Gary's safety. Madam Yang would not be able to look for Gary and Lena would just be a piece of wood. Lena was feeling tired so Kris said they can talk again next time.
”Oh, I forgot to give you this.” Kris took out something from his pocket.
”AH! That's my lucky charm.”
