"Jenifer Zeng, where are you taking me?" Molly frowned as she looked at Jenifer Zeng, the woman walking in front of her and wearing an elegant fur coat. Again, she wondered what a day she had had. Was it a good day for all of these reunions? She had met all those wanted, unwanted, expected, and unexpected people today!
Jenifer stopped and looked at Molly. She was radiating a graceful aura with every move she made. As she walked towards Molly, she said,"Molly, long time no see. Why do you look so glum to meet an old friend?"
Molly's face grew even colder. She had already been through a lot in the last few days. Especially earlier tonight, Brian had sex with her at the lounge of the manor, and then Edgar said all those tender and warm words to her. All of them were driving her mad and just when she thought she could be free of it all, she was so unfortunate to have bumped into this woman.
"Jenifer Zeng, we were never friends!" Molly snorted and said. "Just tell me what you want to say. Be honest. Stop wearing that deceiving look in front of me."
With a sensual smile and her eyes slightly bent, Jenifer stopped. Jenifer was never counted as a beautiful woman but she had good facial features and dressed up in a fashionable way, which made her look alluring.
Glancing at Molly, Jenifer smiled scornfully and said,"Molly Xia, do you know how much trouble you've caused Edgar? He infuriated my grandfather because of you and your father that year, thus making him take a discursive course in his career. And now, are you going to pester him again? Are you going to affect his future career as an official again?"
Confused, Molly paused for a moment and asked,"What did you mean? How did Edgar infuriate Major General Zeng because of me?"
"So you really did know nothing about it!" Jenifer Zeng sneered. "Do you really think that the matter with your father ended easily just like that? You really are dumb. For your sake, Edgar accepted my grandfather's demand and joined the Wolf SWAT Team. Do you know how he lived through these years? And how much pain and suffering he had endured?"
In a state of shock, Molly just stared at Jenifer. A surge of fear wrapped her heart. She had always doubted why her father's event could be solved so easily, after all the wrong he had done. She had also thought that there might have been someone who had offered them help but she couldn't have imagined Edgar to be the one to do so. He was only about fifteen years old at that time!
"Edgar promised his late parents that he would undertake the Gu family's mission. However, because of you, he had to promise my grandfather to get to that peak of power in the shortest possible time. To achieve his goals, he had to choose a much more dangerous way. Did you know that he almost lost his life in the peacekeeping mission three years ago?" said Jenifer. Each of Jenifer's words was like a knife piercing Molly's heart. Looking at Molly's eyes, Jenifer sneered,"Edgar is the youngest and strongest warrior of the Wolf SWAT Team and also the youngest mayor of A City. He had no choice. He had to endure all these things because of you, Molly Xia!"
"No, it's not like that. These are his ambitions!" Molly held her breath and snapped.
"Haha..." Jenifer laughed coldly and said,"These are his plans, yet you know what? My grandfather demanded him to take a seat in the State Parliament before he reaches thirty years old. Or else, your father's matter will ruin your family sooner or later."
Her eyes widened, her mouth dropped, Molly stared at Jenifer with disbelief. How could it possible for a person to take a position in the State Parliament before thirty years old?
Molly suddenly remembered what Edgar said to her earlier.
He told her that he would solve her father's matter.
Was this the way how Edgar was going to solve her father's matter? As long as he could take a position in the State Parliament, he would have the power to solve it.
