The CEO's Wife Has A Secret

From she was a child she had never liked this uncle of hers, he usually bullied her if there are any opportunities and even hurting her physically multiple times like kicking her, throwing her to the pond, and etc.

When Fang Wenna was younger she was timid and shy that is why even with the bruises she had she never told her parents nor her grand parents about the abuse she had received from her uncle.

Furthermore, during those times her uncle was still playing the 'innocent and good-natured' uncle so who would believe her if she said something about ? Added the fact that she is not used to speaking, they would only say that she was being instigated by her grandmother who hated Fang Jianghu's existence the most.

Thinking back on how dumb and naive she was back then by letting her uncle hurt her, she would really love to scold herself she could have done something but she didn't. That was also the time when she realized that being good doesn't necessarily mean that people will reciprocate the same way.

Fang Wenna forced these unwanted thoughts back down, this is not yet the right time to deal with her personal grudges, Xi Ana's safety should come first. "Where is she?"

"I can keep her safe in one condition." there was a trace of arrogance in his voice with the confidence of having the 'upper hand' in this situation who has the only right to negotiate.

"And that is?" pretending that she has no idea would definitely prolong the conversation maybe not for an hour but a few minutes will do.

"Don't pretend as if you don't have any idea what I wanted, you really are just like your grandmother. Eve simply seeing both of you makes my blood boil, it's a good thing that she is already dead."

"Don't drag grandmother into this! You may pretend that you don't have a hand in her death but I know that you were the one who visited her last before she got an attack."

He may not be as cunning or as intelligent as other people, there is definitely something he's very good at and that is angering other people so much that is why Fang Wenna believes that that day her uncle must have said something that made her grandmother very angry which caused a heart attack.

"It's pointless to blame someone when you don't have any conclusive evidence right? Even high school students know that."

"You are right, there might not be any evidence that will prove that you killed her but that doesn't mean I can't fight you using some other means right? Maybe not now, but someday. Just wait patiently, uncle."

"You are really different now compared to that little girl I used to vent my anger on. You sure have grown some fangs but I'm sorry, in exchange for the life and safety of your precious friend you have to give up the position of being the heir."

It was her idea to try and lengthen the conversation but sh didn't think that by doing so she is forcefully reopening the wounds of her past.

"I don't care about being the heir at all, if you want it you can have it just make sure that you will not hurt even a single strand of Xi Ana's hair."

More or less, this is something they already expected considering her uncle's personality. Ever since she could remember her uncle has always been coveting the Fang Family business but of course her grandmother refused entirely with no room for discussion so her grandfather couldn't help but agree and to compensate he had given him some of his personal assets but not even a single stock in the company.

Even if it's only a few minutes, Fang Wenna was successful in buying them some time. They don't need to extract any clues from him anymore since they've already managed to track down their location and they even have a blue print of the mansion.

Knowing the personality of her uncle once she 'gave in' he will demand more thinking that his treats were working, pretty simple-minded if one would think about it. He is definitely a person who will extort everything he can.

The conversation dragged on until her uncle was finally satisfied, of course she managed to act well as if she is really negotiating so that he would not suspect that she is only pretending to agree to everything he is saying for now the main goal is to reach the location as fast as they could.

The call ended with Fang Jianghu saying that they will need to call him once the transfer of doc.u.ments is already over that will only be the time when the exchange would take place.

Meanwhile, Fang Jianghu upon setting the phone down, was clearly grinning from ear to ear. He never thought that kidnapping Xi Ana would actually make his hard-headed niece give up everything.

Unknown to him, when the call ended they are actually already at the vicinity of the place where they are currently staying and just waiting for the right time to rescue his precious bargaining chip.

---

On the other hand, Xi Ana was still in a pinch. Forget about escaping, if these ticking bombs on her wrists weren't removed there will be no point even if she successfully escapes this place.

Although actually there is a way but she is still hesitating about it because she can't fully calculate the risks.

Even without a key she believes that Li Jingli will be able to disarm these from her since he is really good with it but the problem is she didn't know how far exactly is this place from the city since she was asleep during the travel so she can't calculate the distance.

If by any chance she escaped and it was actually a really far place then before she could even reach Li Jingli her hands wouldn't be attached to her body anymore.

Xi Ana was quite in a dilemma. Is waiting really the only thing she can do in this situation?

Since her feet were not in a bind she decided to go out but before she could even make a single step out of the room she was blocked by a scary-looking burly man. "You are not allowed to go out, Miss."

"I'm already wearing this and I can't still go out and walk?" she waved both of her hands in front of the person and acted somewhat pitifully.

Surprisingly, the burly man's personality is just like his body. He's seriously isn't easily swayed.

"Please go back inside, Miss. I'd rather not result to violence."

So going was also not possible huh. She walked back inside and sat at the edge of the bed. As she sat, she heard a distinct sound from afar. She tried to focus on the continues banging sound and she was surprised with what she realized, that sound's pattern is actually a Morse Code!
