Chapter 34 It's None Of My Business
After saying that, Charles left, he didn't see the astonishment on Albert's face when she heard the name.
Looking at his back, Albert's fingertips were a little cold.
The person of the Gu family, Charles...
Was he the master of the Gu clan?
When her grandfather was alive, he had told her that she could do whatever she wanted in the Imperial City, but she couldn't offend the devil of the Gu family.
In the past ten years, that guy had been hiding in the Gu mansion and had never shown up. She had no chance to provoke him.
But now...
Recalling what she had done before, Albert felt a sharp pain in her back teeth.
If that guy was really Charles, then she might have been killed by him thousands of times.
Looking at Albert who was in a daze, Simba meowed and pulled her trousers with its claws.
Albert picked it up and sighed slightly.
"You are really a 'hero' for having scratched Charles..."
Simba tilted its head and didn't understand what she was talking about.
In the next suite, as soon as Edmund pushed the door open, he saw Charles coming in from the balcony.
"You ...are you looking for the guy next door?" Edmund frowned.
It was already very strange that Charles suddenly paid attention to an ordinary high school student. If Charles did something more, Edmund would go crazy. Compared with 'the guy next door' mentioned by Edmund, Charles suddenly felt that Edmund was very stupid, and his tone was somewhat disgusted and impatient. "Why are you looking for me?"
Edmund pouted and threw two invitation cards to Charles.
"The manager has sent two invitation cards about the cultural exchange conference held in the Xihai City. I want to see if you want to join them."
Without raising his head, Charles stared at the band aid on the back of his hand.
Edmund had been used to Charles's indifference, and continued, "I heard that someone from the Rong family in J City has also come. Those henchmen have been busy these days, waiting to lean on this big backer."
"The Rong family?" The corners of Charles's mouth twitched, and he said casually, "All the members of the Rong family, except for Albert, are good for nothing."
When mentioning the name of Albert, Charles paused and glanced at the next room.
"Exactly." Edmund shrugged and said, "Since Mr. Rong died, the Rong family has been handed over to Albert. The Rong family in J City has tried to hook up with that boy for several times, but he doesn't like this branch. The development of Rong family in J City is getting worse and worse in recent years, and there is only an empty shell left."
Edmund shook his head and wondered why those people still fawned on the Rong family in J City.
"No matter how bad, they are also under the name of the Rong family." Said Charles in low spirits.
Thinking of something, Edmund became interested. He stepped forward and said with a gossipy face, "Speaking of the Rong family, do you know that the daughter of the Rong family, Ashley, is going to be engaged to your nephew?"
Looking askance at him, Charles said, "It's none of my business!"
Raising his eyebrows complacently, Edmund said, "No matter whether Darren likes Ashley or not, she is Albert's favorite sister. If Darren marries her, it means that he could occupy half of the Rong family. Besides, your nephew seems to have a good relationship with Albert. Aren't you afraid that they will gang up against you?"
Speaking of this, Edmund seemed quite excited.
The hatred between Charles and Darren was deep. Charles killed Darren's grandfather and father. That bloke claimed that he would let Charles die without a burial place. Darren had sent people to kill Charles several times, but he never succeeded. In the past decade, the uncle and nephew had been like enemies. But most of the time, it was Darren who took the initiative to provoke Charles. If it was someone else, Darren would have died hundreds of times.
If it weren't for Charles's grandma who had been trying to stop Charles from killing Darren, how could Darren have acted so recklessly till now?
But now, things were different.
If Darren really joined hands with the Rong family, with the Rong family's resources and the ability of Albert, it seemed that it was possible for Darren to win against Charles.
Edmund was really looking forward to the day when this freak was defeated.
"Do you think everyone is as stupid as you?" Charles sneered.
If Albert was smart enough, she would know which one was more important, the Rong family or an illegitimate daughter.
Edmund cried.
It was not okay to make such kind of physical attacks!
Charles stood up and walked towards the bathroom. Edmund hurriedly asked, "Will you attend the exchange conference tomorrow?"
"I'll be there!" Charles answered without looking back.
Of course he wanted to have a look at the competition of the boy next door.
After putting on her clothes, Albert took Simba in her arms and walked out of the hotel.
The black mask covered her face, revealing only a pair of beautiful and cold eyes.
Lying obediently in the arms of Albert, Simba asked, "Master, where are we going now?"
"The Internet cafe."
Albert logged into a computer with the rest of his pocket money, and skillfully input a series of website address, which was so fast that no one could catch it.
Lying on her shoulder and looking at the densely packed symbols, Simba suddenly felt a headache.
The Internet cafe was crowded with
people, surrounded by the smell of cigarettes and alcohol. Albert was wearing a black shirt and a mask, which was not so eye-catching.
When Marcus was having a meeting abroad, his phone vibrated. It text
the bank had transferred the n
Message reminding him was
money.
"Oh Shit!"
Marcus couldn't help swearing in front of the major shareholders of the Qin Group.
His bright big eyes stared at the screen of the mobile phone, and his face was gloomy and frightening.
The assistant asked cautiously, "Mr. Marcus, what happened?"
Did the stock market of the Qin Group fall, or the real estate collapsed, or something happened to the Qin family?
Marcus held his phone tightly, and his handsome face was full of anger.
"My bank card has been hacked!"
Looking at the tens of millions in her account, Albert was obviously in a good mood.
Marcus had taken a lot of money from her before. This time, she had to make him pay a lot.
She couldn't use her own cards.
If she was not careful enough, she might be noticed by Ashley.
The game hadn't started yet. How could she expose her identity so soon?
Taking advantage of the last minute, Albert cleaned up all the traces, picked up the sleepy Simba and walked out of the Internet cafe.
Staring at her cheap clothes, Albert thought for a while and decided to change her clothes first.
Although the Xihai City was an urban area, it was far worse than J City, let alone compared with the Imperial City.
Albert took a taxi to the largest shopping mall in the Xihai City.
Simba was excited to see the crowd and wriggled in her arms.
There were many people in the shopping mall. As soon as Albert got off the car, she attracted the attention of many girls.
Albert had no choice. Even if she was wearing a mask, her temperament could not be ignored. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
