The CEO's Woman

Chapter 393 Main Targe

Both Jiang Yue and Wang Ruo held their guns up, as their eyes roamed around the now bloodied room. Their gazes then focused on the doctor who was standing next to Gideon.

Jiang Yue narrowed her eyes at the man who was wiping the blood from his hands with a white handkerchief.

"What is the meaning of this?"

"Cough"

"Cough"

Jiang Yue looked at Gideon who held his chest while coughing. "Alright... Enough with this fiasco." He slowly got up from the bed. "Simon, get me the medicine. This damn cough is killing me."

The doctor immediately handed Gideon a tablet with a bottle of water.

"Should be enough to keep me awake..." he said before turning his attention to Jiang Yue and Wang Ruo.

"Sorry... that was impolite. Hello, Wang Ruo." He said before giving her a chilly smile. "It’s nice to finally meet you in person."

Gideon’s smile was something that Jiang Yue had never seen before. It was cold, calculating, akin to the smile of a predator. "What is the meaning of this?" She asked once again as she tilted her body and moved her right leg backward. For some reason, she felt an extreme danger from Gideon at that moment.

"Come... Jiang Yue... you don’t need to be with that woman. Come here and stay by my side." He gestured Jiang Yue to sit beside him.

"What do you mean?" Jiang Yue asked confused. Why did it seem that Gideon hated her mother?

"It’s very simple, child... that woman is not the person that you think she is. She will only manipulate you. Like what has happened to your father. Come..." he held his hands up towards her. "Let Simon handle that woman and you will become the Queen of this country."

The world seemed to narrow down on Jiang Yue after she heard Gideon’s words. She then looked at Li Qiang, who was clutching his wound, his breath unsteady, then at Wang Rou.

"You..." Jiang Yue paled as the realization struck her. "Did you target my mother all along?"

In Jiang Yue’s thinking, Gideon was really adamant about making her come to M Country. Back in Xin City, he was not telling the truth. It made Jiang Yue feel confused and made her question her mother’s identity even more.

His words, coupled with Wang Ruo leaving her uninformed about anything, instantly made her come to M Country.

"Jiang Yue... don’t be stubborn. I and the Li Family were just thinking about your welfare. Nothing more." Gideon said unimpressed with Jiang Yue’s angry tone. He had done all that he could to make her come to their country. He had taken advantage of the Queen’s connections to the Zhang and Shen families to make Shen Rong come there.

He had done everything to protect Jiang Yue from the Vercello family’s people. He and the Li Family were the only ones that really cared about Jiang Yue and definitely not that woman whom she called ’mother’.

Jiang Yue did not answer him, instead, she looked at Wang Ruo who was frowning and eyeing Li Qiang from time to time.

"How did you found out that father was in the west?" She asked her mother. If her guess was right, then Gideon was just playing with everyone there for already a long time. Gideon and the Li Family wanted Jiang Yue to rule the country, and at the same time, they badly wanted to eliminate Wang Ruo.

"I..." Wang Ruo gritted her teeth while trying to suppress her anger. "Someone had sent me an email. I tried to track it but... I did not find the sender. It was... It was Li Jun’s letter. So I..."

She hesitated. "So, I hacked into the security surveillance system of the palace and observed the gestures of the current King."

"I have always known Li Jun’s mannerisms and gestures. Even his handwriting. So... So, when I discovered that he was missing, I immediately believed in the content of the letter and ..." she added.

Jiang Yue instantly frowned as she stepped in front of her mother, protecting her from Simon’s sight.

Gideon’s target was her mother.

Everything made sense at that moment. He had used every possible method to make Jiang Yue trust him and help him take care of the Kim Family.

Gideon should have known about Li Qiang’s existence for already a long time. He should have known that Li Qiang was the one behind the Kim Family. He was watching patiently as Jiang Yue was making all the preparations. Afterward, he made sure to act weak and sick.

Then, during the cyber attack, he also made sure to get Jiang Yue inside this bunker. He was sure that Li Jun was Li Qiang’s main target. He knew about that all along. He also knew that Li Qiang hated Jiang Yue and had tried to attack her for a lot of times before. With that information in his hands, he knew that Li Qiang might also attack Jiang Yue. Especially, if they were in the same room. He took advantage of all the information that he got and waited... patiently waited for Wang Ruo to show herself and try to protect her daughter.

"Why do you want to kill my mother?
