Chapter 32 - Its time for retribution
Though the video was enough to file a case against Chen Mian, with her lawyers and connections, she could manage to escape the prosecution.
Chen Feng could damage her more by manipulating her than direct prosecution.
A long pause of silence followed from the phone. Chen Feng could guess that Chen Mian must be having a hard time to get a hold over her shock. Being forbearing, Chen Feng let her slowly regain her senses and didn’t interrupt her recuperation from that dreadful shock that video afflicted.
"T-That’s not me!", Chen Mian shattered voice came out of the phone.
"What? The face in the video clearly belongs to you unless you happen to possess an identical, twin sister who had been hidden from the world’s eye until now", Chen Feng said sarcastically in an apathetic tone.
"Chen Feng this video is fake! You are trying to frame me!"
"Let’s just leave this decision for the lawyers to make whether the video is fake or not"
The word ’lawyers’ crushed all of Chen Mian’s arrogance into pieces.
"Chen Feng please don’t do something like this to your big sister. I’m begging you. We have spent our childhood together. Remember? How can you bear to see your blood sister rotting in the prison."
Chen Feng laughed. It was amusing how she altered her tone and conduct by an angle of 180 degrees in just a few seconds. She could not believe it that someone related to her by blood could possess such a level of shamelessness.
"The same sister who just threatened to make me regret being born not just a minute ago?", Chen Feng couldn’t help her desire to mock Chen Mian and make her recall her own words.
Chen Mian realized that her tricks would not work on this new Chen Feng who seemed like she had changed to an entirely different person ever since they had kicked her out. If it was the previous Chen Feng, she might have fallen for it.
"I would do whatever you want. Just, please don’t do it.", her voice succ.u.mbed to resignation as she implored quietly.
But inside her heart, she was burning. Now she realized that it was such a huge mistake on her part not to completely get rid of Chen Feng after kicking her out of their manor two months ago. She should have dealt with her right after she was thrown out.
Chen Mian despised Chen Feng. Her flames of hatred were flared by the jealousy of the exceptions Chen Feng had in her. She was outright gorgeous, talented in every aspect, gifted with loving parents and adored by their grandparents. After the death of the elder of the Chen family, Chen Mian and her parents completely changed their loving attitude towards her and plotted to kick her out of the family manor and heritage.
Chen Mian decided that this time she would completely destroy that cunt after getting a hold over that video. But unbeknownst to her, Chen Feng had decided to ruin her already.
"What do I want?", Chen Feng said and her voice sounded like she was thinking, "Let me think. How about bringing the crate my mother left back to me"
When Chen Feng was kicked out, she was not even given a chance to collect her belongings and they were greedily claimed by her uncle’s family.
Chen Mian was astonished. Why would Chen Feng want that petty wooden box of all the things? She couldn’t understand her reasons. Then she remembered that Chen Feng used to be very obsessed with that box after her mother passed away. She used to say that it reminded her of her mother. Maybe it was the reason.
"You wouldn’t show that video to anyone if I brought you that crate?"
"Yes"
"What guaranty is there that you wouldn’t if I gave you that crate", Chen Mian asked wryly.
Chen Feng laughed.
"Dearest cousin, I’m the one who holds all the cards here because I have the video that can ruin you in seconds. So do you think you have the right to ask for a guarantee?"
That bit*h!
Chen Mian could only swallow her spite for now as she couldn’t afford for Chen Feng to leak that video. She knew that as long as Chen Feng had that video, it would pose a threat to her. So she agreed to give that box now to stop Chen Feng from leaking it immediately. For later Chen Mian decided to employ some men to get rid of Chen Feng to end the threat permanently.
After all, it was an outdated and worn out wooden box. So Chen Mian was not interested in it.
"Alright. I’ll bring it to you", Chen Mian said in a submissive tone, sneering maliciously inwardly.
Chen Feng sent her an address.
Chen Mian, at that time, had no idea that by the time she employed those men Chen Feng would already be the wife of the heir of Li co-operation and by then no professional would be able to touch a single strand of her hair.
Chen Feng sighed as she opened the box Chen Mian sent. It brought her acute nostalgia as it put forth the memories of her deceased mother in her mind. Shaking her head, she got rid of those sweet agonizing memories. She grabbed the flimsy and worn out a wooden box and broke it into two halves.
From within, fell a heavy, metallic key and made a sharp, loud echoing noise once hitting the floor. It was the key to the bank safe deposit where her mother’s will laid.
That manor originally belonged to Chen Feng’s mother. And it belonged to her rightfully after her mother’s death. The legal papers for that manor and her mother’s estate held her name on it. Chen Feng didn’t care much for wealth. But she wanted the manor back because many of her childhood memories were associated with it. She had spent her happy days in it with her parents and siblings.
And also how she could not tolerate those despicable people enjoying their lives lavishly in something that belonged to her.
Chen Feng picked up the key and smiled. Her eyes had an enchanting spark in them as a new determination solidified within her.
