Chapter 407 Brun
"I suppose there is a reason that you asked to meet me?" Jiang Yue asked the man in front of her.
Three days had already passed since the incident and the bruises on Jiang Yue’s face had already started healing. Or that’s what she had convinced herself to think. Although the swelling was mostly gone, Jiang Yue’s face still looked terrible. In fact, she thought that she actually looked scary.
However, she still felt that her injuries could not be compared to what Fu Jin had received. It made Jiang Yue stay inside the hotel where they had been staying before. She took her time, taking care of her husband and making sure that his wound was healing fast.

"Yes... Miss Jiang. I would like to know if it was really the Li Family who is responsible for the Kim Family’s death." The man’s direct question made Jiang Yue speechless. She actually expected him to tell her how he should be the next king and that he was the rightful heir to the throne.
From her research, this man’s name was Ashton. He was the younger brother of Carlisle who was studying abroad. Moreover, from Jiang Yue’s research, this man was the exact opposite of his power-hungry brother. According to the rumors, this man was mischievous and playful. He loved gambling and partying. He also never liked studying.
Jiang Yue continued examining the guy in front of her. From his words alone, Jiang Yue could judge that he was not the type of person that the rumor said.
"If I am right... You are still a Li." Jiang Yue started. "So... that was the wrong question to ask. Isn’t it, Prince Ashton?"
"I am not a Prince nor a Li... but you already know that." He said, his face serious. All he wanted to know at that moment was the identities of the people who were responsible for the Kim Family’s massacre.
Jiang Yue smiled at the man in front of her. For some reason, she liked his character. Then, she slowly leaned towards him. As she said in a low voice. "If I tell you that I am the one responsible for their deaths, would you believe me?"
"Yes," Ashton directly answered. He had already suspected that his family’s death was related to this woman standing in front of him. "However, I am not here to avenge them."
"Oh?" Jiang Yue raised an eyebrow. "Then, tell me... why are you here, Ashton?" action

Meanwhile, the Second Elder was pacing inside the Li Family’s meeting room. His gaze was dark, his brows furrowed as he clenched his hands.
"Second Elder... I think you should stop that. We need to talk properly and come up with a plan." The Third Elder suggested. Past three days had been like a total hell for everyone. They needed to stop this mess as soon as possible or that Jiang Yue would continue to destroy their properties using the weapon that they had created themselves.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Why are you asking me? Ask the First Elder for a talk! I am done talking! I can’t continue just sitting here while I fear for my family’s safety!"
"Second Elder, please calm down... don’t be reckless! I believe it will be best to just follow Jiang Yue’s instruction now that we already know what she is capable of." The Fourth Elder answered. During the last thirty-six hours that they were staying there, the Second Elder had tried to go out of the room twice, and every time, a property of theirs located abroad would disappear from the planet. That clearly showed them how capable that woman really was.
"Second Elder... I think you should take a seat. We can’t plan if we don’t talk properly." The First Elder said. "You have already tried to walk out of this room twice. As a result, the Fifth Elder lost a branch family abroad. We need to stop letting our emotions..."
"Are you blaming me for what happened? Aren’t you the one who ordered me to try and step out of the room? If you want to blame someone, then blame yourself!" The Second Elder rebutted. Why he was blaming him when he was only following orders? Seeing the First Elder’s face darken from his words, a smug smile instantly appeared on his face. "What? Aren’t I telling the truth? The plan about making Jiang Yue the Queen was your suggestion. Wang Ruo’s death was also a fruit of your planning!"
"Everything is your fault! So, don’t try to put the blame on anyone else here! Blame yourself for letting a junior outsmart you!" He added before he continued pacing around the room.
"You have no idea what you are talking about!" The first Elder exclaimed before trying to calm himself. Killing Wang Ruo was not his plan at all! However, he and his family were the ones who took the brunt of Jiang Yue’s anger. Wasn’t that unfair?
