Chapter 32 - Disgrace(4)

Ke Mingze was furious. "This is wrong !"

"Wrong?!" Haifeng clenched her hands, itching to give her another slap. "You framed me for cheating and embezzlement, and you say that we are in the wrong?"

Ke Mingze sneered. "I have already said that I didn't give you any letter! Bring the letter! There is no way you can prove it!"

Chunlan patted her mother's arm, calming her. "Of course, there is no way to prove you are the one who gave her that letter since there is no other fingerprint on the paper, except my mother's. Because lately you have been wearing gloves since you came back from Paris, claiming its the new trend. Luckily, Uncle Lu sent my mother a message asking if she got his letter which he sent through you. According to him, you were complaining about the ill treatment my mother was getting in the Tang mansion, asking him to take her away from the hardships she was facing."

"That's not true!" She denied.

"You switched the letters, replacing it with a cry for help knowing my mother couldn't refuse. Then you sent a tip to my father to turn him against her." Chunhua said, angry at how foolish she was in the past.

Ke Mingze still shook her head. As long as she denied everything, she was sure she could escape.

Chunlan made her mother sit down. "Are you not curious, of how I checkmated you? I simply realized that instead of just viciously scheming, it was better to say the truth, then scheme viciously." She grinned. "It was so hard, getting my parents together to talk, convincing my father of my mother's innocence and even more harder tracking Uncle Lu's number."

"It was all Jie Jie's plan to put up this act, just to see how ridiculous you will people behave." Chunhua said.

"Right! If we had not already talked to Uncle Lu, my father would have believed all the nonsense your husband was spouting that night." Chunying spat.

Ke Mingze started to panic. " Officers, don't believe them. They are lying. Why would I go through all this trouble to plan all of this? For what? For wealth? I have money already!"

"For the Golden Card." Chunlan turned to see Ke Mingze turn pale.

The Golden Card was a card that could be used to request any land across the world for half the price, whatever the price. It was given to the Tang family which helped them acquire lands and made them powerful even since ancient times. It was what kept them above their competitors and it was their precious family heirloom.

"I know you are aware that my father gave my mother the Golden Card when I was born. It was hidden along the presents and you saw it. You were planning to separate them, because not only will you have a chance to get my father but also, snatch the Golden Card from my mother." Chunlan smirked.

"Think about it, if my mother and father had gotten divorced, she would have walked away with the Golden Card. But my mother doesn't know anything about the corporate world and feeling wronged, she would never give it back to my father. So you would have planned to trick her to collect it, wouldn't you?"

Chunlan walked to Ke Mingze who was as white as paper. She had finally realized why she had struggled with the company in her past life. It was because of this vixen! " You made a deal with VK, didn't you?"

"This are all theories and made up stories, you have no proof!"

"Who says so?" Huizhong finally spoke, his eyes signalling the guard beside him. A few minutes later, an unconscious man who was badly beaten up and tied was dragged into the room leaving a generous trail of blood on the polished floor.

"Mr Ke!" Mingze gasped.

"After the little chat we had, he confessed everything. Also, you also gave your own little speech a few minutes ago." He pointed to the expensive chandeliers which had little cameras installed. "The video and statements are enough."

Ke Mingze finally understood that everything was over. The plan had failed. They truly just played along, making her the biggest fool in the room.

"You won't get away with this. My lawyers will-"

"Law? Do you think that the law will save you from me?" Huizhong growled. "Making me act this little drama, hitting my own wife. Mrs Ke, you can be sure that I would return this favor a thousand times."

Ke Mingze finally fainted.
