Shaun had a lot to say to Jordan.
Jordan had somehow become Shaun’s best “friend” and “partner” in this world. After all, the two of them had collaborated and done too many things together in the past year.
Walking over, Shaun patted Jordan’s shoulder.
To Shaun, this was a friendly gesture but it instantly angered Jordan!
Jordan got up from his seat, turned around, and punched Shaun in the face!
Bang!
Jordan was furious. “You b*stard, how dare you appear in front of me? If your wife, Clara, hadn’t controlled Victoria’s body and made her sleep with an 18-year-old boy, Victoria wouldn’t have committed suicide and wouldn’t be unconscious now!”
“Ding! Face bleeding detected. Beginning treatment.”
A mechanical voice rang out from Shaun’s body.
Shaun was wearing a Rong family invention that could defend and treat the body. But Shaun didn’t bother. He said to the system, “Stop the treatment.”
Retrieving a tissue from the small table by the balcony, Shaun wiped the blood from his nose. He then said to Jordan, “Jordan, can you be reasonable? You were the one who caused my wife and me to be homeless first. You exposed us and chased us out of the Schmid family.”
Jordan said angrily, “That’s Lota’s home, not yours at all!”
Shaun said, “Alright, even if you were right to uphold justice, didn’t you kill my wife with your own hands? It has been so long since you killed my wife. Did I try to take revenge on you? Did I ever scold and hit you like you did to me just now? If I had killed your wife, would you be willing to speak to me in a friendly manner?
“My wife and I were childhood sweethearts. We knew each other since we were young children. You’ve only known Victoria for just over two years, right?”
From the looks of it, what Jordan did to Shaun was indeed more cruel than what Shaun had done to Jordan.
After all, Jordan had killed Shaun’s wife with his own hands. On the contrary, Jordan’s wife had attempted suicide and was not dead yet, just in a coma.
When Clara controlled Victoria, she never intended to really hurt her physically. If Clara had jumped down from a building dozens of stories high when she was controlling Victoria’s body, even Jordan would have been helpless to stop her.
What happened to Victoria was considered not that bad in the scheme of things.
Jordan said coldly, “You can also kill me to avenge your wife!”
Shaun said, “Don’t always talk about fighting and killing. We have to foster a harmonious society! Just because we can’t save Victoria doesn’t mean Rong Huangde can’t!”
“Rong Huangde?”
At the mention of the unfathomable Rong Huangde, hope rose in Jordan’s heart.
“Can Rong Huangde save Victoria? By the way, why didn’t Rong Huangde kill you after I left?”
Shaun complained resentfully. “Thank you. You finally remembered to show some concern for me! I’ve been here for half a month, but you only asked me this question today. As your best partner for the past year, I’m so disappointed!”
Jordan stated coldly, “Whether you die or not has nothing to do with me. If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t. I’m not that interested.”
Exasperated, Shaun hurriedly said, “Rong Huangde is not a simple character. You b*stard, you were so disloyal. You flew me to Fort Rong in the middle of the night. When we reached the fort, I told you to go back and watch the movie first, but you disagreed. You were the one who insisted on barging into the second floor of the fort. In the end, I begged you so hard, but you didn’t bring me with you when you left. We’ve known each other for a long time. Couldn’t you have shown me some kindness?
“After you left, I thought Rong Huangde would kill me. But he didn’t. He actually endured the fact that I killed his son. Instead, he fed me poison to control and use me.
“Sigh, I thought that after switching minds with Rong Bailun, I would be the number one person in the world. I could kill whoever I wanted. Everyone in the world would have to listen to me! Who would have thought that I would just end up becoming a puppet of you and Rong Huangde? Both of you have your methods of controlling me.
“F*ck, if I had known that it would be so frustrating after becoming Rong Bailun, I wouldn’t have swapped minds with him!”
Jordan snorted. “Blame your greed. You can’t blame anyone else.”
Rong Huangde didn’t kill Shaun. Instead, he poisoned him and held his life in his hands.
On one hand, it was for the sake of his family.
“Rong Bailun’s wife, son and daughter don’t know that you’re a fake, right?” Jordan asked.
Shaun nodded. “They don’t know. Rong Huangde didn’t tell them.”
Jordan had guessed correctly.
Now that Victoria was unconscious, Jordan understood the pain of losing a beloved family member.
Ban Luming was just an outsider but his death already made that brat Rong Bingshao so angry that he wanted to kill Jordan. He had cried until tears streamed down his face.
If he knew that his father had been killed and his mind replaced, he would not be able to withstand such a blow.
Jordan asked, “You said that Rong Huangde can save Victoria?”
Shaun smiled. “I can only say this. If Victoria can still be saved and there’s only one person in this world who can do it, then that person will be Rong Huangde. That old b*stard Rong Huangde is too f*cking unfathomable. He even knows our Handley family’s secret techniques. Is there anything in this world that he hasn’t seen before?
“You’re a Deity. Just rely on your intuition to analyze if Victoria will wake up one day. If you believe that she’ll wake up, then come with me to find Rong Huangde at Fort Rong. If you believe she’ll be like this for the rest of her life, lying on the hospital bed like a vegetable, never waking up, never calling you husband again, then don’t come with me.”
It could be said that Shaun was an expert at persuasion.
His goal was not to help Jordan at all. Instead, he wanted to trick Jordan into going to meet Rong Huangde.
Rong Huangde had given him this mission.
Shaun seemed to be giving Jordan a choice, but in fact, he was not giving him any choice at all. As Victoria’s husband, how could Jordan believe that she would never wake up?
In fact, Jordan had fantasized countless times that after Victoria woke up, she would cry and tell him that she would never do such a foolish thing again. They would live happily ever after.
However, Jordan did not immediately agree. Instead, he asked cautiously, “Did Rong Huangde ask you to invite me?”
