Chapter 278 - Convincing family 1

Wang Manor

Patriarch Wang's Study

"Do you even know what you are saying? Not only it is unsafe but will attract eyes if a president's son step on a land currently in a civil war." Patriarch Wang's wrinkled face crumbled. His hand rubbing the jewel on the head of the walking stick, eyes narrowing down at Wang Shi, "Is she that important?"

Wang Shi raised his chin in acknowledgement, "More than my life."

"But you are the life of this family. Our future. Why should I risk everything?"

"For the sake of your grandson and great grandson. She is not only my love, but Honey's mom. Only she can complete my family. Isn't this your long time wish?" Patriarch Wang frowned, but his frown was a sign of amus.e.m.e.nt as this was the first time this grandson of his was talking about a woman so passionately. And he was hell serious. "And if you don't let me go there, I will use other methods. You know I can do that. AND If I do that~ the political impact would definitely be not so be favourable according to my understanding."

"Hmpf," Patriarch Wang banged his walking stick against the floor, "Don't teach me politics. Put something solid on the table if you really want me to give you the permission. You think I don't know what happened between you and her?" Wang Shi looked outside the window, "LOOK AT ME, YOU PUNK,"

"I-I--"

"Look at yourself. You are stuttering. You know this wont be easy. She is a wounded tigress who lost her child. There's nothing dangerous than a wounded mother," Patriarch Wang said, eyeing snapping with dislike, "Though I'm feeling bad for her, I'm not sorry. It saved our little one. Now that she's aware of everything, she will definitely try to claim her right over Honey. So why should I let you save her?"

"I wonder what Honey will think of you if he comes to know that you have bad intentions towards Suyin and don't want to save her. Do you think he will love you the same?"

"HOW DARE YOU--"

"I don't. Just asking you to give it a thought." Wang Shi said nonchalantly, rubbing his chin. "Recently he is making equal efforts to get his ducky back, not leaving a stone unturned. Um-- Ducky! It's the endearment he use for her. Cute, isn't it?"

Patriarch Wang frowned.

Of course he knows everything what's happening in Wang Shi's office.

"C'mon grandpa, it's already a good deal that I'm ready to take charge of the Wang family and business. Not to forget, Suyin has already done us a great favour by not talking about it in media, saving Wang family from falling into the people's eyes and questioning us. Plus, there's something more that you should know--"

.....

.....

Patriarch Wang had to get the papers signed for Wang Shi's departure from Wang Huang, but he was called in for an urgent meeting so they have to wait until the President couple arrive at the Wang manor.

"What do you think you are upto. Shishi?" Wang Huang demanded as he walked into the study. Liu Jeilan following him. Servants closed the door behind cutting Wang Shi's uncle from eves-dropping the conversation.

"Good evening mom, good evening dad," Wang Shi looked up from the cup of tea, and crossed his feet at a fireplace. This will take time. Definitely do.

"There's nothing good about it." Liu Jeilan said, "Dad, I'm not letting him go to El Sandrios. The country is in chaos, and we have long withdrew our forces from their. Who will provide him the security? I don't trust theirs." 

"Shishi, tell them what you told me just now." Patriarch Wang said, rubbing his forehead with his spotted hand. He was already exhausted by all the discussions he had with Wang Shi earlier. These young ones were giving him a hard time.

The ensuing silence was a proof Wang Huang and Liu Jeilan was willing to hear Wang Shi.

"Wu Sean and Wu Sangui have planned to take over the president's position and annihilate our family from Cheyna. They have joined hands with a mysterious man and had planted undeniable evidences against us." He put forward the doc.u.ment that Chen Wenwei got from Suyin's office and the same Suyin had spoken about. 

"I have investigated it. It's true these people really vanished from our NGO. They came as the undoc.u.mented migrants, seeking medical help. Every one of them was treated in my hospital, but later disappeared. I admit it was a fault at our end that we never try searching for them." 

He placed forth another doc.u.ment, "Mei hacked Sean's laptop and found that these people were from El Sandrios, sent here by sea route by brokers. According to the doc.u.ments, each of them were later used as organ donors for the so-called rich and the money was anonymously donated to our NGO."

Panicked, Wang Huang picked the file. It's a deadly trap. If the news broke out, not only he'd be answerable to the united nations but to his own people. What worse, the evidences points out its their fault. They did for greed, or maybe running a secret trafficking business. "DAMN!"

Liu Jeilan bit her lips, "D-Does Suyin knows about it?"

"Yes. Wu Sean even tried to instigate her against us, but she didn't budge." Wang Shi could notice a glint of admiration in her mother's eyes. This had to be the first time his mother had appreciated Suyin. Though only internally. "One of Suyin's interns told us that she had a bug planted in her handbag which he discovered by mistake. Later, on Suyin's order, he did the same to Wu Sean to let her keep an ear on Sean."

He pulled the chair close to his mother and leaned forward.

"No matter what differences we have, or what happened between us that night in my office. It's already commendable that she held herself calmly and comes up with a smart way to trick Wu Sean to make him believe that she's against me. Which you can see she's not. Somewhere in the ruins of El Sandrios she's battling against the odds to find the mastermind behind all this instead of fighting against me based on false evidence."
