She was expecting that Liu Juan would give an explanation which could change her opinion about Liu Juan. After all, Liu Juan was her little sister whom she loved so much, but to her disappointment, Liu Juan's explanation did nothing but increase her hatred for Liu Juan more.
"Big sister, I wanted to come to you but our boss had caught me and he didn't let me come to you and find you. Later, I found out that you were saved by Bo Xiao so I begged him to let me come and meet you but instead he always sent me for the missions. After completing a lot of missions, he finally allowed me to meet with you. I am sorry...Big Sis...I couldn't fulfill my promise. I am really really sorry…" Liu Juan wanted to tell her Big Sis the real reason why she didn't come back but she couldn't bring herself to do that in fear that her big sister's heart would break and perhaps, she would blame herself for not protecting her little sister. After all, she loved her so much.
That was why Liu Juan also made her boss promise her that he wouldn't tell anything about her past to Liu Ruolan.
Unfortunately for her, Liu Juan didn't know that herr boss would use this promise against her someday.
***
A day before the boss left the Bo Xiao Mansion.
"Big sister, I wanted to come to you but our boss had caught me and he didn't let me come to you and find you. Later, I found out that you were saved by Bo Xiao so I begged him to let me come and meet you but instead he always sent me for the missions. After completing a lot of missions, he finally allowed me to meet with you. I am sorry...Big Sis...I couldn't fulfill my promise. I am really really sorry…" The man read the lines from the piece of the paper with a smirk on his face at the stupidity which Liu Juan had done as to who would write this thing on the paper to let the other people take advantage of her.
However, the man knew why Liu Juan had written those words.
Liu Juan was afraid that her fear of her past would be revealed in front of Liu Ruolan when Liu Ruolan would ask the reason for Liu Juan being missing for so many years that was why she wrote this excuse and repeated those words every day to make herself believe that. Yes! This was the reason why she didn't come to save her big sister.
Still, the man wasn't bothered with her reasoning. She dared to go against him so he would take the advantage of her fear and crush her hopes of getting freedom into millions of pieces such that it couldn't be differentiated from powder.
"You see, these would be the exact words of Liu Juan when she would come to you to explain but in reality, she didn't bother about you." Liu Ruolan, who was sitting in front of the man, heard his words.
Freedom from this life?
What a joke!
Although their life was full of danger here, still she didn't have a wish to leave from here as long as Bo Xiao was beside her because she knew that the life of the ordinary people was far worse than what they had here.
Liu Ruolan had a self-awareness that she was nothing without Bo Xiao. Moreover, she loved him as he was her lifesaver but hearing the recording of Bo Xiao's confession of his like towards Liu Juan in his ward, Liu Ruolan felt that ants were crawling on her body.
How could he say that if he would have Liu Juan, he didn't have the need for her?
He knew how she felt for him, still, he chose Liu Juan over her.
Did he forget that Liu Juan was a thorn in his way to becoming a big boss?
Liu Ruolan was feeling that her heart was bleeding but still there was one part of her heart that didn't want to believe that Bo Xiao could join hands with Liu Juan.
Whereas, Bo Xiao didn't know that since his boss came to his mansion, all of his and Liu Juan's activities were being monitored by his boss. If Bo Xiao thought that his boss had forgotten his betrayal then he was wrong. The man hadn't forgotten anything but he didn't take any action against him because he was waiting for the right opportunity that was to cut the wings of hope of Liu Juan to get her freedom.
Bo Xiao was just a pawn to help him to cut off Liu Juan's wings. Once Bo Xiao would get done with his work, the man would get rid of him as well.
After all, the man had heard the saying, 'To kill two birds with one stone' and he knew how to use it.
"Then why don't you wait for your little sister to come to you and say those exact words?" The man asked with a smile.
****
Back to the present.
Now, Liu Juan had said the same words which were written in the paper. Liu Ruolan's eyes turned red in anger. Till now she hadn't decided to work with their boss but now, she had finally decided!
