Eleven thought about a lot of things at once, and all the intense emotions started to crash in her brain. It was painful, and her heart felt heavy. She did not believe that Mo Ye had any reason to not stop them.
Her thoughts were the same as all the other big bosses. None of them believed that it was not Mo Ye’s decision. They said that Mo Ye was the one that sold the information to the Middle East. How was he going to explain this?
Mo Ye only laughed coldly and did not say anything. His face looked cold and his gaze was sinister. Nobody dared to look at him and Eleven was anxious. She wanted to hear him explain, but sadly, he did not say anything.
He only looked at them and repeated what he had just said. If they had no intention to discuss, then they should not collaborate in the future and treat that nothing had happened. This was a big-scale event with all the big bosses of the international mafia, and it was a rare occasion that happened once every few years. The outside world was focused on this event too, so if the meeting ended in unhappiness, it would give others more room for speculation.
After all of them thought about it, they decided to give in and discussed the collaboration with Big Boss Mo according to their second plan. After this war, the Top Terrorist Organization had given up most of the arms market, and there would definitely be people to fill up the space. Mo Ye would naturally not give up this opportunity as they needed a large sum of money to build the Mafia. He was worrying about how to raise the money, and now they could make use of smuggling arms.
But the two parties did not have a smooth negotiation as this batch of people were the mafia from Northern America and not arms dealer. There were a few mafias that were involved in arms smuggling too, but it was not as convenient as dealing with arms dealers.
Therefore, they could only talk about other things, such as drugs, diamonds, and money laundering. The Mafia had a very strong money-laundering organization.
They discussed for a few hours, and Eleven had got annoyed listening to them as she was not really interested in these things. She wanted to know more about the war, but it seemed like she would not be able to do so now.
But she was desperate to know the truth. If they had really misunderstood them, then maybe… Eleven frowned.
They only left when it was midnight, and it happened to be the busiest time of the entertainment city. The big bosses decided to play at the casino. Mo Ye asked Daiya to pack the documents and instructed Birmingham. “Send a few men to follow them. Don’t let them create any trouble.”
Birmingham nodded.
Daiya was sorting out the documents and wanted to ask him something, but he looked at her sharply, scaring Daiya. Therefore, she did not say anything and continued to pack up the documents before passing to him.
Mo Ye glanced at her and asked her to leave.
She nodded and went out of the room.
Mo Ye sat in the room for a while, his eyes occasionally looking in the opposite direction. The night was dark and the building that Eleven was at was dark, so she could not be seen. But she could see Mo Ye from her telescope.
His deep and complex gaze.
He seemed to be thinking about something and his face looked solemn. He sat there for a while before he got up and left.
Eleven thinned her lips and gave up the sniper rifle and the telescope. She ordered the intelligence agent to come up and clear away the things before she left the building in a hurry and went straight to the Mafia’s headquarters. She wanted to know the truth about everything.
If not…
She could not calm down.
Mo Ye drove back to the headquarters by himself. His face was very calm as he stared at the road ahead. His calm face did not show his emotions at all.
Half an hour later, he finally reached the headquarters and it was already past midnight. The headquarters was very quiet. He went back to the study room to put down the documents before going back to his room.
Once he went back to his room, there was a gun pointing at him from his back before he even turned on the lights. He did not fluster as the aura from the person behind him was so familiar. He even missed it.
He smiled slowly and continued to turn on the lights.
“You’re finally here,” Mo Ye said slowly. His coarse voice sounded like he was suppressed. It was as if he had used all his strength to say these words out.
‘Eleven…’
He had guessed that she would look for him as such a big thing had happened. Moreover, from the way she was pointing the gun at his back, he knew what she was thinking.
She must have thought that he had worked with the countries in the Middle East to attack the Top Terrorist Organization, resulting in them losing a lot of their territories and many people dying.
It was normal for her to think this way as this was what everyone else thought. Even if someone had used his name to be in cahoots with the countries in the Middle East and sold them the Top Terrorist Organization’s information, the Mafia must be the one that’s benefitting from this. Because who else had this ability other than the Mo Brothers?
Mo Ye smiled coldly.
He remembered that he was confused when he just woke up. But all he thought of was where she was and if she was alright. He did not seem to remember that he was seriously injured and had been unconscious for very long. He seemed to hear her voice echoing in his ears.
Once he had a clearer mind, he remembered that she had shot him and he could not help but feel flustered and angry. He was angry at her for being heartless and really shot him. He was even more afraid that she would be ruthless and not give him any chance. He asked Mo Jue about her and if she had visited him. Mo Jue was afraid that he would be too agitated if he knew that Eleven had visited but just left. Mo Ye might even chase after her. Therefore, Mo Jue lied that she did not visit him. Mo Ye was so disappointed and felt that his world had become dark.
But Mo Jue told him that the bullet in his body had been smeared with a special type of anesthetic. Her aim was also slightly off so that he would be in a state as if he had died. This was to prolong the time to save him. He then regained hope and wanted to find her once he got better.
It had been half a year.
He worried about her body as she was very skinny when they were on the mountain. For the past half a year, Mo Jue also announced that he had died. He was not sure if Eleven would be… sad.
Mo Ye was happy, happy that he was alive and happy that Eleven was not so cruel after all. At least, he was sure that she was not cruel enough to really kill him.
At least…
They still had a chance to start again.
But before his body had recovered, he heard that the hotel had an explosion. Mo Jue told him that Eleven was inside there too. She had just visited him, and he woke up once she left.
