Reborn: The Tyrant's Obsession novel Chapter 350

Chapter 350: Not theirs (Chapter updated)

Mo Jun trailed off, realizing that he misspoke, "Of course, Mr. King would have no reason to back the Yu Family up, unless he is doing it for you?"

Doing it for her?

Ella frowned.

Others might not know but after what happened the last time at the Yu Mansion, why would Adrian protect the Yu Family?

That too... when he had never shown interest in them before, in both her lives, despite them being her family! Even thinking like that was bizarre to Ella.

Mo Jun cleared his throat, realizing that he probably said something inappropriate.

He immediately changed the topic, "By the way, I wanted to ask something..."

Ella looked at him.

"Don’t get me wrong..." Mo Jun seemed to have a shred of hesitation when he started speaking.

But after a moment, he inhaled a deep breath and opened his mouth, "I am grateful for your help. If not for you, I would probably never have won the case against Jenny. And the control of the Mo Family wouldn’t be in my hands..."

Mo Jun paused, gently gauging Ella’s reactions before he continued speaking, "But I still don’t understand. How did you know everything beforehand?"

Mo Jun had thought about it day and night but he couldn’t comprehend how Ella knew the ins and outs of the case.

Not only did she know the secrets that Jenny was hiding, but she also knew about the case proceedings.

Whatever Ella revealed to him, happened right on the next day in the court.

And at times, it made Mo Jun feel like Ella could see the future.

To some extent, it was a very scary thing. Yet, this person was actually helping him.

Mo Jun did not dare to think what it would be like if Ella was working against him.

When he looked up, there was a small smile playing on Ella’s face as she shrugged her shoulder, "I just happen to have access to some top secrets," she winked playfully.

Mo Jun paused for a moment before the suggestive look on her face started making sense to him.

Right, with Adrian King around, how could any of this be a big deal for her?

Ella could see right through the man’s thoughts.

She knew that her ambiguous words would make Mo Jun think that she had received Adrian’s support in helping him win the case.

So, she misled him on purpose as she couldn’t really tell him that she knew all this information about his family from her past life.

...

’Ring ring’

Mo Jun declined the call.

"I told you... I could have taken the cab," Ella shook her head, "You have recently taken over the company so it’s not wise for you to stay away for long."

"I intentionally didn’t drink much so I could drop you personally," Mo Jun sighed, "Especially after what happened the last time."

The car fell silent when he said that.

"Did you figure out who it was?"

Ella’s brows tugged together. The last time, Mo Jun had appeared in time when things went wrong with the cab driver.

Weirdly enough, even the investigation team couldn’t get to the bottom of it and the investigators died mysteriously.

Sensing Ella’s silence, Mo Jun realized the matter was not as simple.

Just as he opened his mouth to speak, Ella grabbed his forearm, her alarmed voice reverberating inside the car.

"Careful!"

A shadow whirred past the road and appeared in front of the car.

Mo Jun cursed under his breath and swerved the car to the left. And then he hit the emergency brakes.

Ella’s head knocked against the glass pane with a ’thump’.

"Ella!"

"I am fine," Ella said as she started to unbuckle her seatbelt, "Check the person outside."

At Ella’s reminder, Mo Jun immediately snapped to his senses. He gazed at the woman lying a little distance from his car.

He rushed out of the car.

Ella clutched the side of her head, inhaled a deep breath and pushed open the car door.

But the moment the door opened, a shadow pounced over her.

"You bitch! You fucking bitch!"

An inconsolable scream reverberated in the streets.

It took Mo Jun a moment to respond that the woman who was lying unconscious on the road was no longer there.

The moment he had opened the car door and approached her, she got up to attack Ella.

However, what took Mo Jun aback was when he turned around, he saw an awfully familiar face.

"It’s you?"
