Without giving any attention to the air of terror built among his employees, Deming strolled towards his private lounge. Long Jie was on the call when she saw him walking in. The frightening aura he was carrying around him made the hairs on the back of her neck go straight. She can feel the goosebumps rising all over her skin. She got so immersed in terror that she lost all the sense of her surroundings. Looking at her lost expression, Qi Yuirong cleared her throat lightly so that she could be brought back from her thoughts. Jie blinked her eyes and looked at the man who was looking at her with an annoyed infuriated expression. Did she do something to infuriate him? Nope, not at all. These days she has maintained her distance with him and also from the matters related to him. Lifen's ultimatum didn't allow her to try something around him. She looked at him and then at the secretary who was still standing behind him very obediently. She stared at her asking her to leave them alone, but the secretary stayed rooted to her place. "What? Aren't you going to leave? Don't you know we have something personal to talk", Jie yelled in frustration. She behaved so carefree that no one can say moments before she was scared to death when she saw Deming murderous eyes. "Sorry Ms. Long. But I am in the middle of my work hours and doing my work", Qi Yuirong said very politely. There was no way she was going to give another reason for getting reprimanded by her CEO. Earlier by the tone, she can guess that her boss now had not a string of connections left with this woman. And above that she knew who the actual lady boss was. There was no way she would be risking her life and the job for this fake one. Long Jie's eyes twitched at the blunt disrespect. She looked at the man who didn't care to stop his secretary when she used such an insulting tone for her. But there was standing with a light satisfied smile on his lips. Due to that smile, the furious air around him seemed to get a little lighter, making her more relaxed. "Brother Ming! What is this? Aren't you going to say anything to her. She is clearly insulting me in front of you", she complained like there has never been something wrong between them. Like she hasn't ever lied about her identity to him. "Is there something that I should say in this condition?" Deming asked in half mockery and half scowling tone, "My employee is clearly doing their work with full love and dedication. I should actually praise them" He slightly turned his face to look at his secretary and said in a proud manner, "Well done! Before leaving, just go and inform the finance department to add a 10% increase in your pay this month". Turning back, he walked to the sofa and sat on it with his arms crossed. Qi Yuirong nodded to her boss's words. She was happy, not for the increase in the pay she got but for the praise she received. Earlier those harsh words really made her doubt her own capability. But now since she has heard some praises, she was feeling good. It seems like being always on the side of Lady Boss would never give any disadvantage. Long Jie was shocked to hear his words. He has never insulted her like this. Even back in London, when she planned to break his relationship with Lifen, he had warned her and said that there won't be any kind of relationship between them. She never thought that he could ever insult her like this, not after the promise he has made to her. "Bother Ming, what is wrong with you? I never thought you would insult me like this. I thought that at least you can give me some respect, after dumping me like that without any reason. But you are here clearly humiliating me in front of this low employee. Not only that you are even encouraging her for the words by increasing her pay. What do you mean by all this?" she said with teary eyes, her brows joint together forming some wrinkles on her forehead. "Low employee? It seems like you have judged yourself too high. My employees are way too high than you, both in status and brains" he said heartlessly without giving her any face. Long Jie flinched at his words. It felt like someone had poured a bucket full of icy cold water over her head. Qi Yuirong who was obediently standing at the side nearly spit out blood. Her boss' words never care for anyone. She so wanted to know how he behaves in front of Lady Boss. She has seen her caring about Jie in the past but it was just caring, not love and she was 100% sure of it. But in the case of Lady Boss last time, she has seen him being kind, caring and loving. And also she can never forget the jealousy filled eyes, it was so obvious that even the employees who didn't know anything about it can tell. "What do you mean?" Jie asked furiously. She has seen the secretary laughing. She was laughing at her. What gives her audacity to mock her. This Deming was really not giving her any face. "I meant exactly what I said. And this the only thing I think you should know better than me. At least that much active brain you should have with yourself" "Huh! Are you doing this avenge your current girlfriend? Even if you are, then at least be a little respectful towards me. I was once a person for whom you cared to the degree that you planned to get revenge from her. At least give some value to the promise you once made to me", she said her eyes held some tears. If the people don't know that she was humiliated with words they would think her to be crying over the loss of her lover. But all three people in the room knew it better. Planned to get revenge from her, just because of her. This sentence was enough to make him clench his fingers into a fist. How can he forget that? He knew that was the biggest mistake of his life that made him lose his happiness and sleep for all nights in the last two year. Another set of words that triggered his anger to the peak of blazing fire was, 'Promise once you made to me'. She has the audacity to mention those words fearlessly in front of him. He let out a dark chuckle that instantly turned the air around to become as dark as the dreadest night could be. "What promise I made to you? Can you remind me again? Let me see how audacious you could be? Help me know the extreme extent of your fearlessness." Suddenly sensing the extreme darkness in him, Jie was terrified. She gulped and swallowed down her fear contemplating the meaning of his words. What did he mean by that? Was she missing anything? Suddenly her whole stream of thoughts was jolted thinking only one reason which was going suitable with his words. And just thinking it that way her whole body felt weak. Her brain cells started throbbing thinking the words she can use to defend herself and her face turned purple. Did he know everything? About the truth regarding her not being the girl from twelve years back? Her steps subconsciously started moving backwards, trying to get her as far as possible. But little did her senses know that now there was no escaping hole left that can keep her safe. "Brother Ming … I … I have just come here to ask for your help. I really did not want to mention anything about the promise. I have forgotten everything long ago and accepted the reality that we are not made for each other. You are suitable beside someone like Lifen. Please don't mind my words", she said trying her best to keep herself safe and secured. "Forgot about the promise? Accepted the reality? You have to first accept your own reality. You are still clutching hard on the fake mask you wore over your face and yet trying to defend yourself. You are really fearless now or did you take me as the weak one who won't retaliate to your audacious action" Deming snarled with a furious expression, emphasizing on each and every word dominatingly. Long Jie trembled at his words. She was right. He has known the truth. Now there was no way in which she could save herself. Without wasting another second in her meaningless thoughts, she immediately went on her knees. "I am sorry. I am really sorry Brother Ming! Please spare me this time. There will be no next time. Please spare me" But there was no way he was going to let this slide. He looked at her and said, "I could not mercy you. I would have thought to let it slide, if you have not tried to sabotage my relationship with her but you did." Saying this he snapped his fingers and just as the sound was heard, few people dressed in black came out and stood in a line to take the orders with their head bowed downwards. These people were always around him but never came to anyone's notice. "Transfer Ms. Long to our Special Island and make sure to keep her in the room where not even a ray of light can reach." Long Jie was shocked at the orders. Was he prisoning her somewhere away? No she can't go like that. She can't live her life in the dark. She was claustrophobic. There was no way she was going to survive there. He was clearly giving her a death sentence.
