1261 1261: We Meet Again!

“That’s enough, Jiali. We’re no longer kids, and you shouldn’t say things like that.” Eddie was trying to smooth things over.

However, El successfully triggered Jiali, and she scoffed, “Why? He could threaten me with my project that I’ve worked on for thirty years and my son! Why can’t I say anything about him?

“Eddie, I can swear to god that I did not kill Jiamo, and if you weren’t the one, why can’t it be El?”

This was enough to put a pause to the conversation.

!!
This was because El’s cold aura made it impossible for Eddie to say anything else.

Jiali, who was like a wounded lioness, screamed in rage, “You loved her, but Jiamo brought home a man who was useless. He had nothing, no family, and no money, but he managed to get Jiamo’s love. You were envious of them and decided to kill them for good.”

Suddenly, Jiali felt a tight grip around her neck.

Her eyes were opened wide as she tried to shake El off.

“El! Stop! She’s your sister!!” Eddie quickly stepped forward to stop El.

However, El wasn’t going to let Jiali get away with it, and he tightened his grip around Jiali’s neck.

Eddie saw how Jiali’s face was already turning purple. If this continued, Jiali’s neck would definitely break. He quickly reached out to kick El.

Then, El used Jiali’s body to block the attack, and it was already too late for Eddie to pull back. His long, hard leg landed on Jiali instead.

Jiali finally rolled her eyes and passed out, so El finally decided to let go of her.

“El, that was out of line! She is your sister after all. How could you do this to her?”

However, El completely ignored him.

He got on his knees and glared at Jiali who was still panting and trying to catch her breath. “Don’t let me hear you say another word about that, or I will strangle you to death!”

El got up and left without even looking at Eddie.

Jiali was so frightened that her entire body was trembling. She only came back to her senses after a long time and screamed at El who had already left the room.

“Psycho!!! El! You are sick in the mind!”

When the news of the Union Bank got exposed, Zhan Lichuan received a video call from Eddie.

Since Eddie did not have Zhan Lichuan’s number, he first called the Ops Corporates and was then put on the line by Zhe Yan.

The man on the screen was the head of the Hess family, and Zhan Lichuan had seen him multiple times.

This was the man who could unite the entire Hess family, and in Zhan Lichuan’s eyes, this definitely wasn’t a simple man.

The Hess family was just like Eddie. Both maintained a low profile, and those who didn’t know them personally would never know who they were.

Well, coincidently, Zhan Lichuan knew him.

The Hess family, or to be more accurate, Eddie Hess was interested in AO2 when it had not been developed. Eddie Hess wanted a part of it.

However, AO2 was something that Zhan Lichuan had personally created, and it only belonged to him. He had never thought of splitting it with anyone else.

However, there was once when Eddie Hess gave him a video call.

Back then, Zhan Lichuan had a mask on his face, and the other party didn’t know who he was.

Eddie Hess had the same friendly smile on his face when he asked Zhan Lichuan if he needed an investor and that the Hess family would be more than happy to invest in AO2.
