The CEO's Woman

Chapter 440 Killing Two Birds With One Stone

Seeing Jiang Yue’s expression, Mia felt elated. As expected, this woman was someone that could be easily bullied. However, not even a second passed and Jiang Yue changed her expression into something that no one expected.

She chuckled and raised her lowered head. Though Mia was taller than Jiang Yue, she still felt that the latter seemed to be looking down at her.

"Mrs. Pardi. I never told you that you are beautiful with no brains." Jiang Yue said. "I said men usually preferred beautiful women without considering their brains. I did not specifically say you are someone like that. But if the shoe fits then..." she shrugged increasing the hate in Mia’s eyes.

"You! I heard you call me beauty with no brains!"

"My... Mrs. Pardi, how could you frame me like this? I did not say such a thing. I’m sure your husband will agree with me." Jiang Yue looked at Peter Pardi boldly, instantly earning some gasps and sneers from the onlookers. How could she use Peter Pardi as a witness? He is Mia’s husband. Of course, he will not agree with Jiang Yue’s words.

"I apologize Miss Jiang... My wife is already drunk. She is already muddle." Peter’s statement shocked everyone. What is the meaning of his words? Why is he siding with Jiang Yue and embarrassing his own wife?

"Peter... you... " Mia stared at her husband, dumbfounded. How could he do this to her?

"Let’s go home. You are already drunk." She heard her husband muttered before he leaned into her ears and whispered."Don’t embarrass the Pardi’s anymore. Who knows what uncle will do to you if you continue this."

As expected, Mia’s expression change at the mention of the Pardi Family. Peter knows that his wife badly wanted to impress their uncle. She would not hesitate to swallow her anger in front of the Pardi’s.

As a matter of fact, Mia always wanted to show to the Pardi Family that she is worthy of her husband. Mia is aware that the main reason why she became a future prospect for the Vercello Matriarch is because of the Ruiz Family. It was not because she is smart or talented. It was because her grandfather Nico Ruiz had endless support and influence from other influential families.

Because of this, she is a little insecure and always wanted for the Pardi Family to see her in a new light. Taking his husband’s words into account, Mia instantly composed herself and glared at Jiang Yue. "Miss Jiang, my husband is right. I might be a little drunk just now. However, I still find you so arrogant and presumptuous."

"You might treat yourself as a phoenix now but remember, only a true phoenix will continue to soar higher." She added, her tone righteous. As if she was an elder giving advice to someone below her.

Jiang Yue smirked. Just what is this woman’s logic? Phoenixes? She is comparing Jiang Yue to a fake Phoenix? If this Mia Pardi is indeed someone that could inherit the Vercello Family then she should have made her research about Jiang Yue. She should know if Jiang Yue is indeed a real Phoenix or not. "I agree with you. I’m sure those fake Phoenixes that only rely on their family to fly will surely fall once their family leaves them."

Jiang Yue’s meaning was clear. Mia was nothing but a fake Phoenix who only relied on her family to gain her status. These words were spot on; it instantly made Mia narrow her eyes at Jiang Yue. Is Jiang Yue threatening her and her family?

Even Peter’s eyes seemed to show interest in Jiang Yue’s words. If Jiang Yue is indeed threatening Mia then... she is just too bold. However, for some reason, Peter also felt impressed by Jiang Yue’s actions. She must have known that Peter wanted Jiang Yue and Mia to fight. This must be the reason why Jiang Yue boldly asked him to side with her in front of so many influential people.

Peter’s intention was really simple. He wanted Jiang Yue and Mia to offend each other and fight. Whoever wins will surely become the Matriarch... and his wife. This method is convenient not only for him but also for his uncle and Natalie. Moreover, everyone in the family knew that Jiang Yue is very capable. It is already expected that she will be the victor in this little competition.

Also, Peter already talked to his uncle about this method and the latter readily agreed and even gave him some advice on how to make Mia and the Ruiz family be more aggressive in attacking Jiang Yue. Both of them know that this will provoke Jiang Yue into destroying the Ruiz family, of course this includes Mia.

Isn’t that wonderful?

With Mia gone, Jiang Yue will be the Matriarch and Peter will become her husband. It’s like killing two birds with one stone. Three birds if we will include the destruction of the Ruiz Family.

Unbeknownst to him, Jiang Yue already know his intention from the moment that he chose to side with her instead of his wife. However, Jiang Yue thought that it was the Vercello Family who wanted to use her as the sword in destroying Mia and the Ruiz Family. After all, the Vercello’s were described as someone almost omnipotent, they should already know that Mia and Nico Ruiz wanted to rob Fu Jin and Jiang Yue. Right?

However, they did not intervene and just let them do whatever they like towards Jiang Yue.

This method is something that Jiang Yue is familiar with. If she was right, the Vercello’s use the same method towards Wang Ruo. They used her to eliminate all those evidence in their crimes and have her blame herself until now. Isn’t that like killing two birds with one stone? action

Jiang Yue sneered inwardly while watching Mia and Peter. Killing two birds with one stone? Jiang Yue wanted to see whose family would be left standing after this.
