Chapter 494 - Making A Move

One week later. At M & M Hotel.

"Mommy might be away for a while, so you two be good and remember to miss mommy and daddy, alright?" Mo Xi spoke gently as she kissed Jing Chen Xi and Jing Mo Xing's palm.

Although Jing Mo Chen had told Mo Xi that it was unlikely that Poker would make any moves on her for a week, she continued to say and do those things to her babies every day. That was because she didn't know when she would be gone for a while. Hence, she wanted them to be prepared even though they were still babies and probably wouldn't understand whatever she said.

Mo Xi then kissed the babies on their foot before she went to Jing Corporation with the others. Valerie, Tyler, Vincent, and Xue Yue stayed at the hotel as she didn't want them to be exposed, and she needed them to stay safe while protecting her babies as well. Hence, she went out with the other bodyguards that Cayden had sent to come with her to Country X.

While Mo Xi was on the way to Jing Corporation, she received a message from Donovan.

[They are making a move!]

Mo Xi's face turned serious when she saw the message and she deleted the message quickly before she told the others about it.

Mo Xi and the others safely reached Jing Corporation and she spent an hour there like usual before she left. However, a while after that, their car broke down and so they could only stop by the road. All of them knew that it was a trap that Poker had set, but it was a trap that they had to enter. If not, they wouldn't be able to capture Poker once and for all.

All of them alighted from their car and moments later, a few cars appeared, and their enemies surrounded them.

"Who sent you?" Mo Xi asked with a serious expression.

"You don't have to know now!" One of them answered quickly with a mocking tone before Poker's people got into action.

Mo Xi's bodyguards immediately surrounded her to protect her, but it was to no avail. They were highly outnumbered and they were all down in a matter of seconds.

Then, Mo Xi turned around to 'run away', but they quickly caught up with her and covered her nose and mouth with a handkerchief before they hit on the back of her head. Before she completely lost her consciousness, she felt a stinging sharp pain on her arm.

Five hours later. At an abandoned house.

"Give me some hot water!" Shen Yu Ning shouted at the people.

Shen Yu Ning had been waiting for a long time to be able to punish Princess Luana. That was because Princess Luana had been pestering Jing Mo Chen ever since she arrived in the country. Ru Hui Ya had even told her that Jing Mo Chen had been spending time with Princess Luana instead of visiting her, and that was why Shen Yu Ning was so jealous and angry with Princess Luana.

"Of course it's to wake her up!"

Shen Yu Ning wanted to use this chance to take revenge and punish Princess Luana to her heart's contents.

"Young Miss, you can't do that. She could be disfigured!"

"I don't care! Go get me some hot water!" Shen Yu Ning slapped the lady's face.

The lady fell to the floor as she held onto her face before she replied hesitantly, "Yes…"

Mo Xi started to move a little because of the noise and when she was fully awake, she realized that she was in an abandoned house. She continued to listen to her surroundings, and she could hear the sound of the sea, and the air smelled of sea and trees. She didn't know why, but she had a feeling that she wasn't at Country X but an abandoned island, and possibly the same island that Poker was at five years ago.

"Who are you?" Mo Xi asked weakly though she knew who she was facing.

Shen Yu Ning turned around to look at Mo Xi in anger, "You sŀut! How dare you try to seduce Mo Chen?! Mo Chen is my husband!"

"Your husband?" Mo Xi scoffed, "I didn't know… Mr. Jing… has such a wife…"

Shen Yu Ning slapped Mo Xi's face instantly because of the anger.

Mo Xi didn't manage to dodge because her hands and legs were still chained to the chair, and also because she was still weak.

Blood oozed out of the corner of Mo Xi's lips, but she still laughed.

Mo Xi couldn't help but want to compliment them for their cleverness because most people would just tie their hostage with a rope or tape their limbs. However, Poker was very smart because they knew that those could be easily broken. Not only did they tape her hands and legs together, but they also tied a rope around her body with her hands and round the chair, then around her legs and the chair as well. That wasn't the most impressive part, the most impressive part was that they actually chained up her hands and legs to the nearby bed like those prison chain. This was one of the most escape-proof methods that she ever saw, and she couldn't help but want to compliment them.

More importantly, Poker was very smart to have used the method of general anesthesia on her. Mo Xi recalled the sharp pain she experienced before losing consciousness and guessed that it must have been an injection for general anesthesia if not, she wouldn't have lost consciousness for so long and so quickly. Normal drugs would take about thirty minutes or so to act up and normal knock out could only last for about thirty seconds. Hence, she guessed that they must have injected general anesthesia to keep her unconscious on their way here until now.

"Pfft. You do know… that you just ȧssaulted… a princess, right?"
