LT Corporations has been in turmoil for more than a week now, the shares have dropped by another 5%, which was at its lowest in the last decade. Lu Ye Ze had moved back to the studio, which was located on the 15th floor of the company. Although theoretically he lived there, practically he was spending every night in the office, buried in reports and business plans.
Being expanded on four continents, LT Corporations, wasn't a small company, that you can trifle with so easily. Who ever had targeted its core, had only one purpose and that was to destroy it, at no matter what cost.
In less than a year S.A.N.H.U.A. LTD. had raised to be in the top ten most influential businesses in China and grasped a hefty portion of the country's economy, soon becoming a substantial rival of LT Corporations.
There was only one factor that didn't fit in the equation, its target was to subdue LT Corporation, rather than raise above it.
On top of that, the heir battle was intensifying day by day. The fact that Lu Ri-El, the believed wife of Lu Ye Ze, had left the country without a return date, has added fuel to the fire. Left without the opportunity of producing an heir, Lu Ye Ze's position as the head of the family was now unstable. Although he was not old, he was at the age, where he was most prone to conceive a family and produce an heir.
Marrying Joanne, has always been only a temporary solution. Not because he was thinking of setting her free one day, but because he didn't thought she would survive her fate, when he had found her in that dire state. The pressure he was under at that time, with the return of Ele Müller and his relatives that took his Great Grandfather's birthday as an opportunity to dethrone him, pushed him in taking this drastic step. He believed that marrying a girl on her deathbed, will buy him at least a few more years in this battle for the throne. Now that plan has backfired and brought his sentence even closer.
Pei Lightian had finally decided to carry out his plan. He wanted to make sure that Wei Wei had someone she could rely on in the future. He has been pondering for a few days now, for a way to approach her and introduce his cousin Chu Nan to her.
Wei Wei was in her room at Hebei Garden estate, her parents home. She was getting ready for her appointment with the Psychologist that her doctor had recommended her. She needed to change her medicine as it was making her feeling sick and lethargic. Her mood was lifeless and dispirited, she had been like this for a few days. Whatever she ate wouldn't stay down and she lost a consistent amount o weight, becoming so frail like a feather.
Her parents were extremely concerned about her, they were keeping a close eye on her health and whenever she went out, she was accompanied by either one of them.
While she was dressing up, her phone was buzzing on the dressing table. Wei Wei didn't pay any attention to it, it must have been her mother asking her to hurry up and not be late. It stopped, but started ringing again after a few seconds. Wei Wei furrowed her brows, can her mother have a bit more patience, she was very tired today and she couldn't find the necessary strength to pull her jeans up. She gave up, she left the pair of jeans on the floor and walked in her underwear towards her phone.
When she saw the name displayed on the screen, her blood had drained from her face instantly and she became as white as a sheet.
