The Villain's Wife-Chapter 885 Upcoming Storm.

Chapter 885 Upcoming Storm.

Unedited.

..................

The air inside the dim room was thick with coffee and something else… something suffocating. No one spoke. Everyone inside the room stared at the monitor in front of them. Slowly, their faces turned grim, their lips thinned. Then the video was cut off, the lights turned on, a signal that the video presentation was finished.

"She wanted to destroy us?" A man whose voice didn't quite match his botoxed face asked. His thick Russian accent echoed inside the now silent room.

"She didn't say. But then again, we can no longer trust Harringfort. Not after what he did." Mr. Neeson responded. "There is no need to worry. What can a small Lily do to us?"

The Russian man snorted. "Her grandmother didn't give us all the information that we needed to complete the research. To assure the survival of her granddaughter it is only logical that she gave it to Lily. Now… we have seen the kind of madness that she did just because her husband was a little hurt."

"Dead." Another responded. "It is only right that we think of the worst-case scenario. Zhou Jingren is dead. If he is still alive. Then letting his wife and friend run around dealing with his enemies is extremely cowardly. If he is still alive, he does not deserve a seat among us."

"We never have proof that Zhou Jingren is dead. But you are right. What kind of man would hide behind his wife?" Mr. Neeson let out a displeased grunt. "That Lilian is smart enough to evade our suspicion about her involvement in biotechnology. We must get that research from Lily."

"What do you mean?" The Russian man asked. "She sabotaged our plan to change the leadership of Luxembourg. Are we going to let this incident go?"

"Leandro killed or maybe injured her husband." Finally, the short Japanese man who was silent just a few seconds ago said something. "If that happened to me. I would … I would do something worse than what she did.��

"Lord Naru… we all know that you are against the study. " The Russian sneered. "There is no need for you to pretend that you are righteous."

"What is that supposed to mean, Kuznetsov?" Lord Naru squinted his eyes. "Are you planning on killing her?" His voice was calm, yet it didn't hide the dangers that lurked behind his eyes. "Are you?"

"Hmph!" Kuznetsov turned his head away and said nothing. Lily just used the media to ruin his and Lord Neeson's plan, how could he pretend to be happy after all that? To Kuznetsov, Lily is an extremely cunning woman. With her ability to predict certain things and manipulative skills, Lily is bound to become a very dangerous woman.

And to him, it is better to get rid of a snake while they are still small. He would not want to wait for it to grow big enough to swallow him whole. He closed his eyes as he tried to calm his nerves. The experiment has a very high importance. As Lilian's predecessor, Lily is the only one who could give them the rest of the genome research that they wanted to have to create something that would change the world.

"The problem is… we let her grow too much. How are we going to convince her that we have no ill intent in everything that we do?" Mr. Neeson's voice interrupted the silence inside the room. "She is cunning and scheming. Those two things are very hard to deal with when combined."

"If Zhou Jingren is dead, then it would be hard for us to find leverage. We are also not certain if her child was alive."

"I already told you. Lily would do something that Lilian did to Bec. She will attempt to hide her own child from our claws! Didn't I warn everyone about this matter? An apple will not bear an orange. Lilian and Lily… they are just the same woman!" Kuznetsov hissed, the lines in between his brows deepened. The more he thought about the past, the more he realized that Lily is just like her grandmother. They would not hesitate to keep important people in their lives away just to keep them safe.

Sadly, these people around this table didn't listen to his warnings. They thought Lily would be easier to handle once they got a hold of Zhou Jingren. When these people heard that Lily was pregnant, they became happier. It's a child!

A child is always the weakness of their mothers!

However, Kuznetsov already anticipated that Lily would be different from other mothers out there. And his reasoning is simple. Lilian, the person who taught Lily did it to her own child without having second thoughts. Lilian and Lily are not only blood-related, they also have a teacher and a student relationship. Therefore, it is only logical to think that Lily is not different from the woman who taught her how to survive in this world.

"Well then… Lily said that she will see us once everything is done."The Japanese, Lord Naru sighed. "We can only wait."

"I also suggest that we look into their friends and family to find Zhou Jingren and the child. If those two are still alive, then it would be logical for Lily to hide them. After all, she thinks like Lilian. Check out orphanages in Hong Kong and Europe. Check every hospital. If we want to control that woman, we need a tight leash and that leash can only be her husband and child."

When Lord Naru heard this, he let out another sigh. These people… wanted to control a woman just because of a rumored knowledge. They are not even sure if Lily really had this knowledge and yet, they are already planning on destroying the poor woman's life. 'Lilian,' Lord Naru mouthed as he closed his eyes. He can only hope that Lilian trained her granddaughter right. He can only hope that Lily has enough bullets to survive this upcoming storm.
