Honglie left the Manoban Mansion with a sullen expression, of course, it was partly to show everyone that he had been mistreated.
Although, he still refused to give an interview, everyone could see that he was mad.
Therefore, the media instantly released another article about how Honglie was mistreated by Lisa and Jennie, as well as the whole Manoban Family.
Because of this, the opinion of the masses became more biased. They started throwing foul-mouthed accusations towards Lisa and Jennie.
"Father just called, asking about our further actions.. I told him that we already have a plan." Lisa said before lying beside his wife.
"I'm planning to meet Xiaolan." Jennie blurted out while staring at the ceiling. She was currently thinking about the things that had happened.
" Do you want me to accompany you?"
"No. I can do it alone. Xiaolan hates you and the Manoban Family," she answered before turning towards Lisa, "After this, I want to buy a house, away from the city. Like a fortress, away from all these stressful situations. What do you think?"
"Hmmm... then I'm sure you will like my gift."
"What is it? A house?"
Lisa gave her a cheeky grin, "No, but you will know soon. Let's solve this matter first. I am getting tired of these people, who constantly make troubles for us." He wanted to add how he needed to finish this, so he could delve in information about Jennie's biological father, as well as her grandmother. He didn't want her to know all of this, he just wanted to keep her safe.
Lisa let out a sigh while thinking about how would the truth affect Jennie. Would she be happy that Wonbin wasn't her real father?
Moreover, he wanted to know why he was unable to find anything about Jennie's background in his previous life. Was it possible that Jennie triggered their interest due to her talents?
How about her biological father? Was he even aware of Jennie's existence?
He still needed to clarify lots of things.
Apparently, it would take a long time before both of them could live peacefully in their own fortress.
...
Meanwhile, Xiaolan tiptoed towards the door of her mother's room after making sure that her mother was sleeping.
She made sure not to disturb her mother as she closed the door behind her and made her way into her own room.
The moment she entered her own room, her demeanor changed. Her gaze became sharp as she opened her laptop on her bed.
She picked up her phone and dialed a number. "Is everything prepared?"
"Yes." she heard the answer.
"Good. I want you to do this tomorrow. Make sure that he is dead."
"Got it. How about your brother? Is he still alive after drinking the poison?"
"Are you concerned about his well being?" she asked before chuckling. "He is still alive. We can still use him, for now."
"I was asking about the poison. I have made it. I want to know if it worked." the voice reasoned.
"I know... I know... it was perfect."
"Do you think Lisa and Jennie know about you?" the voice asked.
"No. They are suspecting my father." Xiaolan answered.
"Be careful, that Jennie is smart. She might be even smarter than you."
"Haha... what a joke. That woman is a seductress. She might be a little smart, but that's just it- a little." She answered.
"Don't tell me that you took a liking of her?" the voice giggled. "Do you want me to take care of her? Don't worry, I will let you have a little taste."
"Stupid." Xiaolan rolled her eyes. "Call me tomorrow after you successfully killed him," she said before dropping the call.
Then, she crossed her arms on her chest. A habit, that she usually did when she was thinking.
She hated the Manoban Family. She hated her mother, father and everyone in the Manoban Family. The only way to satisfy her raging heart was to make them crumble.
Without the Mnaoban family, she would have been a normal person. She would have been a normal man, running around, courting women and doing what he liked.
However, because of this stupid Family, she had become like this. A puppet. Someone, who was made into something he was not.
Someone, who was controlled and abused.
Xiaolan took a sharp breath before looking at her soft white hands. This was something that she had never wanted.
Her mother raised her as a little girl. At first, she thought it was normal for her to dress and act like one. However, she realized that she was not meant to be a girl. She was born as a male.
Then, her mother had sent her abroad to hide his teenage, male voice and still flat breasts. Just how cruel was her mother to do that?
Now, that she was already away from the Manoabn Family, she thought that she could live as a normal male. Nevertheless, her mother had her undergo lots of procedures, that changed her hormones.
She made her do a surgery, which turned her into a female, at the age of eighteen.
What kind of mother would do that to her own son?
A crazy one! Someone, who had been abused by her husband into believing that she was useless without him. Someone, who believed that she did not have a choice, other than following her own husband's commands.
However, Xiaolan will have her revenge soon.
The Manoabn Family will suffer in her hands. She will trample it to the ground before helping them up.
Then, she will lead them. Declaring that she was a man behind this jade-like complexion.
She will rule them and own them.
Only one thing was for sure...
As long as she was alive, the Manoban Family would never have a good ending.
