Chapter 57 - Heartless Woman

Kindly reminder, do read Chapter 23 before reading this one. Just to avoid any confusions.

....

Sometime later, Prince's laughter died down, but the bloodlust he has for Lu Jianjun is getting stronger by each passing day and night and his thirst could only clench with Lu Jianjun's blood.

Even after forgetting what that man had done Prince's hatred and craves for bloodlust was enough for which, Lu Jianjun has to die... He can't live longer. Not after the count down has already begun for his doomsday.

The cold room turned silent and still like the time is stopped by itself.

Speechless, Louis didn't dare to breathe audibly considering the vague atmosphere as he stood motionless like a statue. His previous curiosity to know about the dead woman's deeds was evanescing when Prince thought to enlighten him a little.

"You might be thinking, why she is such a special case?" A dark chuckle erupted through his lips as he tilted his head slightly looking at the zombie-like face which once gave the vibe of a fallen angel to indulge into fantasies but if one sees it now they will only have horrible nightmares.

Nevertheless, for them, she has always been a nightmare dressed like a daydream.

Meantime, Prince was wondering and counting her crimes for which she was sentenced to death when he remembered of the serial bomb blast happened seven years ago.

" Louis, do you remember Jean Blanc?" Prince said as he watched Louis bitterly twisted expression.

Of course, how could Louis not remember the cause of his dropping business and surrounding controversies?

Jean and Louis's father George were half brothers from the same father yet they were rivals in the business world. Jean being the illegitimate son was given a fair amount of shares in Blanc Industries along with a few of the subsidiary companies of Blanc Industries to lead and George was given the whole Blanc Industry group.

Surprisingly, Jean made a deal with George and sold his subsidiaries for billions and started a new weapon manufacturing business. Within a decade Jean stood head to head with George and even taking over Blanc Industries. It was needless to say someone was backing and funding Jean's business to grow everywhere and George struggled to get back the shares owned by Jean as his half brother was buying their stocks rapidly. Soon enough Jean was ready to swallow the entire Blanc Industries and write it under his name to enter that 1% of the world's classified businessmen with two strongest and wealthier Corporation on which an entire country like State F's economy depends on.

But luckily, George got a narrow escape when Jean became the prime suspect in that serial Bombing.

" I do," Loius replied nodding his head yet he couldn't understand how is it related to the woman they are talking about?

"Hmm, you should also know that Jean has every reason and means to be a part of UoT if your father has supported him combining their power, wealth, and dominance on State F. Your father should have backed him to avenge against us. Obviously, we gave him a solid reason by kidnapping his two sons and torturing them. Alas, Jean was innocent to suffer all that. After all, you were a family."

"We were never a family."

"Ya, Ya, I know, the blood of the covenant is thicker than the water of the wȯmb besides your father and Jean didn't even share a wȯmb. You'll rather call Lu Jianjun your cousin then accepting Jean as your Uncle. Am I right, Louis?"

Louis didn't utter a word and stood with his head bowed down. It was just a strange incident happened moreover, Lu Jianjun doesn't pay any heeds to his saying, that man is very decisive and peculiar about bonding or forming any kind of relationship.

He's absolute in choosing people.

"Anyways, She's is the one who's responsible for Jean's suicide." Hearing Prince's word Louis' eye went wide in disbelief and shock. The first thing strikes him was...Jean's dead? How?

Suicide? Not possible! He would never do such a deed. It was really impossible to believe he could actually commit suicide.

Isn't Jean was sent to a mental asylum after he witnesses his son's death? He was suffering from mental trauma.

Louis tried to figure out the whole scenario as he dumbfounded stared at the dead women.

Could it be that the person killed Jean's son was...

"Yeah, this heartless woman killed both the father and sons. Could you believe it?"

"W-Who was she?" Louis asked fear evident in his voice.

" Seven years ago, she was an agent but now she's the deceased heiress of Warren Empire."

"Heiress o-of Warren Empire!!" Louis muttered absentmindedly. His mind was blown off knowing he has a hand in her ȧssassination. His whole body trembles in fright.

Is it too late to go back and undo what he had done? terrified, Louis prayed with a sincere heart inwardly. Hoping his wish could be granted.

Prince smirk."Uh-Huh! She caused me a great loss and as well to you. She killed my innocent people and loyal slaves like Jean."

" It's a pity we have to force Jean to shoot himself."
