COLD CEO AND ARROGANT WIFE, VOLUME 5 - Season 8 Episode 83

“How is our guest?”

Anna looked at Raelle and replied, “Missy doesn’t have to worry. We are very hospitable people. None of our guests had ever been unsatisfied with our hospitability.”

Raelle could hear the sarcasm and she also could notice the evilness behind Anna’s voice. Raelle actually didn’t even want to talk about Ruan Meilin. She already knew without her saying a word, a lot of people were willing to ruin Ruan Meilin at this time.

“Also, Missy’s husband is also amazing,” complimented Anna.

“Oh?”

“Master Xian couldn’t reach Ruan Meilin because she was in our custody so he vent his anger on the Ruan family. Currently, every person in the Ruan family is like a rat trying to find a hole to hide in. Not only did he attack their business, but he also helped intensify the internal strife. Right now, every person of the Ruan family is playing against each other and a lot of them are gonna have to face jail time.”

Raelle nodded her head. Well, she didn’t know about any of it. She was not allowed to see what was going on outside of this hospital ward. Her job was to just recuperate like a good patient. The only problem was, that she had never been a good patient. Even though she was a very patient person, she wasn’t a good patient.

“None of that concerns me though,” stated Raelle. “He is his own person. I can’t possibly control what he does.” Taking a pause, she added, “Anything else I should know about?”

“Mistress and Old Master Xiang believe that Minister Chen is also responsible for the incident, so the Chen Clan isn’t gonna get out of it unscathed. Especially when both Mu Clan and Xiang Clan are after them.”

“How can he be responsible? He just invited me to a banquet out of goodwill,” said Raelle. “I don’t think he should get the burns from the fire that Ruan Meilin sparked.” She looked at Anna and asked, “Don’t you think so?”

Anna shook her head, “I don’t, Missy.”

“Why not?” inquired Raelle.

“Missy should already know that coincidences are often planned,” replied Anna. “Ruan Meilin is friends with Minister Chen’s daughter and she especially got the invitation for the banquet because she knew you’d be there. In fact, even if she tried to hide it, she accepted it herself that her purpose was you. Maybe the attack was on impulse but she wouldn’t have had that impulse if she didn’t have those thoughts already residing in her mind.” She licked her lips and added, “Besides, Missy should already know, we are all very biased people. Even if the Chen Clan is completely innocent, just the fact that you got hurt on their territory is enough for all of us to not let them shirk the responsibility. In fact, we might have let it go but Missy lost her child. Although we can’t bring the child back, we still have to make some people pay for his life.”

Of course, Raelle understood the people who had been around her for years. Especially Anna who had been one of the first to join her security team. And she also knew that Anna looked at her not as her boss but as family. During these years, she didn’t take Raelle’s protection as a job, she felt like it was her responsibility to protect Raelle.

“Well, it seems I can’t help Minister Chen then, he should have raised his daughter well and not let her make friends who’d drag her down to hell,” commented Raelle. Of course, she didn’t feel sympathy for any of them. It was only a matter of right and wrong to her. It had always been just a matter of right and wrong.

“Missy, I believe you didn’t call me here to hear about these unimportant affairs,” remarked Anna. She watched Raelle grow up before her eyes, how could she not even know a little about what kind of a person Raelle was?

“Anna…”

“Yes?”

“Who are you loyal to?” asked Raelle.

Anna bowed her head saying, “This subordinate’s life even belongs to you. Missy just has to say a word.”

“And if I ask you to betray your Mistress?”

Anna didn’t even hesitate before saying, “I’d do it in a heartbeat. Because when Mistress put me beside you, she told me very clearly. Missy’s word is the law. Even if Missy wants Mistress’ life, this subordinate won’t hesitate to complete the task.”

“But can you really get Yanyan’s life?”

Anna couldn’t believe Raelle was actually joking with her, she rubbed her nose and answered, “This subordinate is ashamed but the truth is, my skills had always been inferior to Mistress. I still can’t win against her.”

“Don’t be so hard on yourself,” said Raelle. “I don’t want Yanyan’s life. What I want is for you to investigate something for me. But you have to keep it a secret from Yanyan. Let’s keep it between us.”

Anna thought about how it was difficult to keep secrets from Mu Chenyan. But she still had to do her best since it was Raelle who asked her to do it.

“What are we looking for?”

“Find out how my mother-in-law died,” replied Raelle. “The matter of her death is very suspicious. Oh, start with the Tang family. It definitely has something to do with them. It’d be easier for you to investigate if you know where to begin, right?”

Anna nodded her head, “It indeed helps a lot.” She thought about it before asking, “But why are you suddenly interested in this?”

“I don’t like secrets that can affect my life,” she told Anna. “You should know it very well. I like to know everything. It helps me in planning everything better.”

“Also, find out where Tang Hebe’s son came from,” added Raelle.

“Missy, are you suspicious of Miss Tang?” asked Anna.

“Her?” Raelle took a moment before shaking her head, “Nah! She doesn’t even know how to scheme. Her biggest enemy had always been her own thoughts. She could have saved herself so much trouble if she hadn’t made up an invisible rival in her head.”
